Re: The Artifacts Game - [nation selection]

Hmm... archers who engage in two fights per turn don't get their ammunition renewed between battles. I'm going to go put that on the "Did you know that?" thread.

Re: Need help with Balor\'s (Fomora Hero) Gaze Of D

I believe Eagle Eyes and Aim (and Wind Guide) don't stack, sadly!

Re: Need help with Balor\'s (Fomora Hero) Gaze Of D

NTJedi is correct. Also, keep in mind that there's no graphic for Gaze of Death, no projectile to watch flying through the air: however, if you're doing it right, you should be able to spot a big...

Re: The Artifacts Game - [nation selection]

Rental costs will vary depending on my current needs for the chalice! Obviously it's going to be occupied for the next few turns, but once I have it back I'd certainly be willing to discuss terms in...

Re: The Artifacts Game - [nation selection]

We wish to publicize the peaceful, mercantile nature of the nation of Man!

We have rented the Chalice to the fine and distant people of Gath (Calmon), so that their god might be in good and...

Re: Game On

Dangits, it turns out my starting position nerfs the one reason I decided to try Man in this game.

Not that I feel offended or unfairly screwed; I knew my odds and got unlucky. Too bad, Plan A...

Re: How to attack stealthy astral mages?

Anyone tried VotD? (I'd test it myself if I wan't at work.) Thematically it seems more like Mind Hunt, and therefore could be worth a try.

Re: Magic Item Spells

Nope. Luck and curse aren't really opposites. Luck means all damage (except insta-death, IIRC?) has a 50% miss chance; Curse means all damage has x2 chance of dealing afflictions.

In terms of...

Re: Magic Item Penetration

I have been told "no", but I haven't actually run the tests or heard answers that seem to have come from detailed tests, so take it with a grain of salt.

Of course, if noone's run the tests, you...

Re: Storm Queen with -2 strength?

"+-18" does not mean "+/- 18", it means "+ -18". Dominions automatically puts the + in some fields, so when you get a negative modifier, sometimes you see both a + and a -.

Presumably she's...

Re: Epics, Sagas, Fantasies, Mythos, Legends, Nati

Bonus trivia I found out this weekend:

Sedna (ie "Prison of Sedna") is from Inuit mythology.

Loosely retold: She was drowned by her suitors for choosing an animal as her mate instead of a...

Re: Late Era Pangaea

The direct answer, I think, is that the Black Dryad's ND paths allow her to use the Enchantment spells that summon the carrion dudes- Carrion Centaur, or Lady/Lord with a few boosters.

Re: Spell: Telestic Animation

I find them a niche summon; rarely useful, but not never.

When on the offensive with some nations, it's quite possible to end up with mages but not priests. Telestic Animation converts from mage...

Re: Aegis can not kill statues?

Gargoyle is indeed one. But Marble Oracle? I would presume yes, but might want to test it out in SP first to be sure.

Re: Illwinter Ritual Expectations

I believe the attack's strength is dependent on the cold scale- which means that, in practice, strength does build up over time, since you're slowly freezing the world.

Re: Equipment: which to use and what to avoid?

I've actually found Silver Hauberk occasionally useful. Not often enough to put into even a "Strong Niche" category, certainly not "avoid". It provides 16 protection for 1 encumberance, which is...

Re: Micromanagement

Keep in mind that "Defend" and "Preach, even though preaching has no effect" result in identical behavior. It's only a difference of the word under the commander icon.

Re: Fear?

The issue going on here is that "Fear +0" is way better than baseline. Somewhere in the manual, it points out that adding "Awe +0" (from Dom 9) to a pretender chassis that already has "Awe +0" will...

Re: A nation the AI could use *well*

I know in SP games, the issue seems to be less "AI does well as Ermor" and more "AI does very badly fighting against Ermor." Therefore, the AI Ermor consumes all its neighbors easily and grows to...

Re: Spell: Soul Vortex

At least since the beginning of Dom3:

Lifeless creatures are unhurt by drain life/soul vortex.

Non-lifeless undead are hurt by DL/SV, but the attacker doesn't absorb any tasty energy.

He also has the advantage of being stealthy, which is a big boon for human-mage pretenders, since IIRC it protects you 100% from normal assassination attempts.
