Re: Gnome #2 scenario - maps are not the same!

The online game is definitely a new thing after the campaign. Hope to see you online soon (though, if you live in America, it might be hard since I'm in Europe and mostly living at European time)

Re: Gnome #2 scenario - maps are not the same!

Obviously, Sammas' strategy in this scenario is quite different from mine. He's the uncontested expert on Gnomes, so his is probably best (but mine still works).

Server problems

Server appears extra glitchy tonight (it's "tonight" for me, but for US people it's probably "this afternoon"). I just had a disconnect while playing eternaloptimist, and have trouble connecting to...

Re: Gnome #2 scenario - maps are not the same!

5 of them is more than enough to kill anything that comes your way, but you never have too many Legendmakers - keep making more until the Elves disappear...

Re: Gnome #2 scenario - maps are not the same!

I tried it again, building only Gardeners and Legendmakers. 3 Gardeners first, let me grab 4 cities (3 Gnome cities, plus the Elf city to the NE). Then I had several turn where I simply defended,...

Re: Day/time do you play most?Lets set up a rally time

I ticked all days, and the hours 8-12 PM, because I live in France (GMT+1) and am mostly online in the evenings (until late sometimes). I know there are a few regulars that seem to live on the same...

Re: AI Challenge

I don't know about Zeke's Pass - at least, multiplayer games on it don't last for hours with a predictable result, like they do on Lazy River.

Re: Need help with \"A Show of Force\" Legendary

I don't know... the usual Orc strategy works fine: expand with Raiders, then some Mystics for maneuverability, and you should be able to contain the Dwarves long enough to start buying Ogres. Tanks...

Re: AI Challenge

OK - vs Afflicted, it was much easier (the AI never managed to take a second city - Zeke's Pass is horrible on the AI)

Re: AI Challenge

Did it... Clover Valley, vs Dwarves, going first.

Only 3 cities of your race, but that doesn't matter as your recruitment limit is mostly gold. Gold mine on the way to the fight helps, too, plus...

Re: Frustration mounting :) Land\'s End.

Yeah, basically Evil spends the first few turns converting cities inside the locked area - let him, and buy a few hags for quick conversion. Then he'll move west - don't concentrate on him, simply...

Re: \"Gnome Sane\" Legendary, need help please

Yeah, Sammas' advice is good. It took me two tries to redo this (on Legendary), and it's a good idea to take the western cities with a Prophet while a flood of monks go harass the Gardeners, take...

I hope it's not just the abnormally high number of people in the lobby - at some point, there were 3 of us simultaneously, and a few minutes later...

Re: Favorite Race?

I almost always play random, but that doesn't mean there aren't races I like more than others.

I like Dwarves and Gnomes (buffing is fun), Orcs (huge anything-killer is fun), Arcatta (doing funky...

Re: Need help for Land\'s End

Well, I don't agree that Dom2 is bad single player, though it certainly is targeted at multiplayer lovers.

Sure, the AI isn't very good (the game is much, much more complex than LoL; building a...

Re: Two thirds cities victory condition too low

I like the 2/3 condition, just as much as the capitol condition. It makes for things to watch for even if you're basically building the unstoppable army of Legendmakers that some of us like to field...

Re: Playing solo

Vampires and Zombies seem unlikely, as they are both too slow out of the gates and fragile. Skeletons seem like the best bet, but each of my attempts has been a failure so far...

Re: Tough Scenarios

Take as many cities as you can, kill any unit that Evil converts, and try to contain those he moves out of the enclave. Kill any healers, especially - bruisers are bruisers, but healers make them...

While the AI is certainly not this game's strong point, I've been playing quite a bit of solo these days, while waiting for someone to appear in the lobby. To make it more fun (and more of a...

Re: Tough Scenarios

Only recruit Gardeners; until 4 turns before the end, another Gardener staying on a city pays for himself by sitting there, so recruit plenty of them.

There isn't much room for non-optimal play,...

Re: Legendary \"Lend a Helping Hand\"

Ouch...

I re-did the Legendary campaign when I had to change PCs last month, and this one scenario took me lots of attempts to even win.

Re: Need help - 4th Human scenario

Monks are key to fighting back the Legendmakers (I don't think you can keep the Legendmakers from coming out): they take no retaliation, and have decent damage themselves (if you can take a Gnome...

Re: Most interesting, how\'d this get under the rad

Problem is, I like to be on the offense, and with most of their units so slow, it seems that they are better when on the defense (or counterattack, when they can send all those former attackers back).

Idea for a lobby feature

Re: Most interesting, how\'d this get under the radar.

I don't think there are true imbalances. I know I've been unable to win multiplayer games so far with the Undead, and I also don't like it when I get the Afflicted as "Random" race, but it's only...
