Re: Machaka and their spiders

The hunter spider defense is too low to start with (11), so water won't help much. Air is nice, but managing a good air shielding (40-60%) is kinda expensive if you are trying to have nature nine...

Machaka and their spiders

What about some hunter spider riders refills? I can't manage to keep them alive for long, no matter what I try.

I mean, the spiders alone are nice (and not have to spend any money with support a...

Re: Racial Specific Pretenders (Limitations)

Rainbow Pretenders like the great sage and such are very nice until they get shot by an arrow coming from nowhere http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Too risky, imho.

Re: Adjusting battlespeed / naming commanders

I think Pocus has a point here. We know the fast forward was taken off because it was buggy, but I don't remember any of the IW crew saying whenever they would adress the problem in a patch or if...

Re: Adjusting battlespeed / naming commanders

I agree, the battle's speed is insufferable. If it can't be adjusted, there should be an option to remove missile fire/magic fire. That alone should resolve most of the problems.

Re: Micromanaging armies and commanders

Blue line represents fatigue, green line represents poison and red line hits.

Commanders do go unconscious upon hitting 100+ fatigue and won't do anything until fatigue goes back to below 100. At...

Re: Dominions II Bug Thread

The cost for a new magic path for the nagas is listed as 20 in their description, but 30 is what appears on the magic schools selection.

Re: Why do bog beasts die from poison?

It's a know bug, poison resistence doesn't work against poison spit. Should be corrected in the first patch.

Re: Petition to change LUCK\\ORDER Scales

I think order/turmoil change the probability of events too much. Perhaps having it match luck scale (i.e. 10% per level) would level order 3/unluck 3 and turmoil 3/luck 3.

Re: Petition to change LUCK\\ORDER Scales

One of the best things of the luck scale is the chance of getting mines. If you start in a mountain or get some mountain terrain quick, chances are good you'll start to discover new mines pretty...

Re: Neifel giants suck?

Their att/def Ratings are cold dependent, so you have to take it in consideration.

Also, I don't see anyone playing with Niefelheim without nature 9, so once they go berserk their att goes to 14...

Re: Which Jotun Infantry do you use mainly?

No, I've seen a hurler take out a mint giant. Those rocks must be armour negating or something.

And for the scouts, if using commanders as infantry, nothing beats the Herses (for just $10 more). I...

Re: Petition to change LUCK\\ORDER Scales

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">You know, that's a pretty good idea. Perhaps tone it down to 3-4% per level of luck.

I've suggested it before, but I'll do it again, let the intensity of good and bad effects to be regulate by the luck scale, so a flood on a unluck 3 nation be stronger than a flood on a luck 3...

Don't know if someone mentioned before, but the Serpent King's snake form is sacred (but cannot be blessed).

Re: Are Niefel Jarls too strong?

Pretty sure. The chill becomes visibly stronger and ice protection goes from 100 to 250 (I think that's how chill effect is measured).

Re: Are Niefel Jarls too strong?

Another important detail about the Jarls - they enter the sea and alone are able to take the provinces, very important in games without the aquatic races.

Re: Are Niefel Jarls too strong?

While true that normal jotun commanders are much cheaper (and pretty good impromptu SCs), they do not get the same benefit from such items.

The NJ benefits a lot from a better armor. Even a...

Re: Are Niefel Jarls too strong?

I don't know yet if they are too cheap, but added a few magic itens they can do a lot of damage. I got one once with heroic HP bonus and he was my prophet - a 200 HP monster.

I like both Apoger and St. Patrick suggestions, but Illwinter had said before that they wished to keep the forts a very simple thing. Too bad, IMHO.

Re: Life after Death Blessing oddities

IIRC, if a unit kills a unit with death curse, it becomes cursed.

I'll run some tests, but my gut feeling is that allowing HS to turn into TWs wouldn't turn C'tis into a powerhouse. Neither unit...

Re: Question about Ulm and iron faith

I don't think the bless bonus would meant much to a crusher (besides regeneration, which I doubt would be allowed). Possible astral would be good, for the extra MR, but that's about it.
