POLL: How do you play Dom 2?

OK Arryn suggested this in a thread & it interested me.
I guess I mean how many games do you play in the various formats rather than how much time do you spend before anyone quibbles but I expect...

Re: Are devils worth 7 blood each?

I think I agree with everyone here!
Late game your gem income can be far higher if you spam gem items than if not but you have to survive. Diplomacy can sometimes replace armies for this MP. These...

re Knights

I tend to only buy elite troops as I found when I started the other types ran away too much while my knights etc did the business. Of course it's so long since I used dross that I may get better...

Re: A few random Queries

What Arryn quoted tallies with my experience. There is a small benefit to stacking w9 with quickness if you cast the spell - you get 2 actions on your first round which can let you buff a fraction...

Re: Looking for help with SC pretenders

I am pretty sure 0 enc golems do not get fatigue from trampling. Otherwise sounds right.

I am playing Bloodbowl, various D20 roleplaying games, Shadowfist, Call of Chtulhu CCG.
I also regularly play Alien vs...

Re: Players

Obviously this is not a problem as 10 big blue giants on turn 10 is one of the specific threats we identified & were ready to deal with.

I am right aren't I Boron?

Boron?

Re: Players

As the spell was "blindness" the fact he already lost one eye was irrelevant. He was pretty unlucky in a number of ways but since he had only 14 MR getting hit by a take out spell was not as unlucky...

Re: Players

This turn there was a ballsy attack on my capital by the one eyed guy from Van. Unfortunately my PD seems to include a Witch doctor who used my "national spell" to poke out the other eye as well....

Re: My new mod: Is it balanced?

Looks nice & interesting. I think the protection is far too high - noone else comes close to 25 & the King of Magma has 10 so I would go for 10 or if you must 15 tops. Also his attack skill is quite...

Re: Newbie Slug Fest - Mose Hansen game - OPEN

This looks to my taste - it will be my 9th MP game not counting three 2 player games only one of which Lasted beyond turn 4. I am not sure who to take as I am running out of new races I have any...

Thanks for the offer Boron but this map is just far too big for my tastes let some other boomer in the game!

Re: Poll: morale and routing

While I agree with you about troops being useful this does not really support your case as 1/turn is still 40 say each.

I just defeated 2 airqueens with a 30 illithids & 15 mages army by...

Re: Patch 2.13 available now

Several nice little changes.
On a related note in one game I can hire a "Keeper of the Tombs" from a captured C'tis capital & that is also presumably a bug

Re: Moloch rout solution -> imps as bodyguards?

Is this whole thing just a thread to make the Moloch just like the other pretenders?
He is great as a support character or as an alement in an army of say devils. Why does he need to be any...

Re: Caelum pretender design

Me too but that is probably more because I am English & also am wary of American "cultural imperialism".

Re: MP Game - Newbie Game (by Aku)

Hmm even talking to the evil backstabber Aku is bad enough.

Can anyone lend me a treelord's staff or...

Re: Caelum pretender design

I think "rani" is the feminine of "raja" (based on "Flashman & the Great Game"). It is an Indian word but I do not know what language.

Re: Players

Sheap there are only 10 players not 12 as we lost some along the way.

Given the leisurely pace we have got this game going I cannot see we will miss a few hours with your server down.

Thanks...

Re: Poll: morale and routing

The same morale issues should also apply to troops. As a long term miniatures gamer it used to confuse me to see a few archers standing shooting when hordes of other troops went fleeing past but...
