Re: Question about stealth

The manual for the most part goes over all the basics regarding stealth.

Stealth armies move just like spies. Only the commander and all troops under his command must have stealth. Default...

Re: PD wars! (no monkeys allowed)

The key to understanding PD is diversification. At the right level, PD is a great investment. Most nations get between 20 and 30 gold worth of units for every PD point. So, buy 11 points for 66...

Re: Truly noob: Dominion

Ah ha! Nobody told me there was such a thing! I looked and I never noticed you could change the candles at the top, so I've always been playing on "Dominion level 1"! I think you hit the nail on...

Re: Vanarus, Machaka Lion Kings etc

I do not think this does a good job in describing the origins of slavery in the New World. Long story short, a handful of crops proved to be so profitable that plantations owners did whatever the...

Re: Truly noob: Dominion

Sounds like you did not start with a high Dominion Score. When you create a Pretender, you also set a Dominion Score. This effects how high your dominion can be, and how fast it spreads. A score...

Re: MA Marignon... Any thoughts?

The major thing missing from your description, Blackguard, is an expansion strategy. Marignon does not get a lot of lee-way with scales. The Royal Guardsmen cost a lot of gold, to say nothing of...

MA Marignon... Any thoughts?

So, I have been messing around with this nation... and quite honestly it has all the hallmarks of a stinker. I think it gets over rated due to a halo effect with LA Marignon and MA Pythium.

Re: Vanarus, Machaka Lion Kings etc

John Thornton's Africa and Africans is a modern classic, and a bit of an "antidote" to the theory you suggested above. Thorton argues that Africans retained an enormous amount of "agency" in dealing...

Re: Better Know a Pretender.. Type: Rainbows

@Sector-24.

I didn't talk about forging boosters since there is another guide somewhere that does the same thing. Probably should have included a link, that is good info to have when designing a...

Re: Better Know a Pretender: The Green Dragon

Care to explain why Wyrms remain as efficient SC's longer than Dragons?

Just looking at stats, the Wyrm does have the advantage of natural regeneration, some extra HP, and a second head. That is...

Re: Better Know a Pretender: The Ageless Olm

Thank you for contributing, you are the first beside myself to help the BKaP project.

I have also tested your central theory (that an AO with 2 shields makes a fine SC) and it holds up very well. ...

Re: About to start first MP game

I do not think anyone has ever written formally on forts.

But there are some rules of thumbs.

1) From the start, forts are mostly needed to start recruiting additional national commanders,...

Re: Better Know a Pretender: The Green Dragon

That may be half true. The Blue Dragon has the best breath attack: AoE:3, AP, and high damage. That being said, I think the Green Dragon actually does comparable damage, its just damage delayed due...

Re: Better Know a Pretender: The Green Dragon

Geez, do you guys think I did not do my due diligence?

The Green Dragon does not have stealth in human form.

CBM does give him stealth in human form for whatever rationale, but none of my...

Re: Balanced Nations

You would put TC and Agartha ahead of R'lyeh and Ermor in the LA? They are my 1 and 2 respectively. Of course, maybe that was one of those things that go without saying.

Re: Balanced Nations

Ok, lets try Late Age. This one was a bit of a head scratcher for me. I know I didn't want Ermor, and still don't want tramplers, but there remained a ton of odd ball qualities to the nations...

Re: Balanced Nations

Alright, I think Rytek's list with TC and C'Tis hits about the right notes. Feel free to keep ideas for EA flowing, but I want to try to create lists for the middle and late eras as well.

Re: Balanced Nations

That is a little to balanced. I am not looking for "perfect balance," but just six nations that no player would feel slighted getting one of.

Re: OW's Guide to Midgard, Scales and Skinshifters

25 gold? Hah, they're only 20 for Midgard!

Now to answer the original question... going toe to toe with Skinshifters is usually a loosing proposition. You can either Arrow them (though Storm and...
