Re: Favorite fantasy author

Hurray! Somebody mentioned Vance. Call me a madman, but I find his obscure choice of words very enjoyable. Cugel in particular is a very enjoyable character, even if I never want to meet him...

Re: BEST UNIT and ITEM combo-z

The scout bow of war is a nice tatic. Not so useful but very entertaining was my super fire bola warrior I made once. It was a harbringer with 2 fire bolas, boots of quickness, girdle of strength...

Re: This Game Sucks!!!

I found it pretty amusing, because by the end you are certainly revealed as sarcastic.
I used to not like the idea of losing control over battles, but then I realized that Dominions II has more...

Re: Help with Arco

My advice: bless heart companions. They get really nasty with a couple different blesses, and the extra gold over hoplites is definitely worth it. I've found the weakness of arco to be armor...

Re: new mod, R\'lyeh Theme: False dawn

Interesting mod. Something needs to be done about the false illithid for it to be fair to other nations though. They get standard mindbLast and are really cheap. They should probably cost almost...

Re: A partially complete mod and questions

Re: Rainbow Mages Worth It?

Generally rainbow mages aren't very powerful. If the only mage that can find, say, water magic sites is your pretender, and he's a rainbow mage so he has some low water skill (1-2)...who's going to...

Re: A partially complete mod and questions

Nobody wants to see my mod? And I decided fire breath should be given to salamanders, not humanbred...and I notice now heroes stay unless removed.
1) Adding new national heroes doesn't look...

Re: Registration Number violated.

I bet he is quite impressive but fear doesn't seem right. I wouldn't flee like fear would do, I'd just go off and fight somebody else, due to my awe.
Now how come we can't choose that Version as a...

Re: Carrion woods

I'd probably mess your scales up to get lots of pretender magic and rely on the high site frequency to give lots of gems for not only carrion but also other spells...your population dies anyway, so...

Re: border management and defenses - do you use them? up to what value?

I wouldn't phrase it as you "only" get arbalests with Ulm's first 20 points. With good armor, decent fighting stats, and a short sword, arbalests are among the best defense troops even without...

Re: Favorite Melee SC

As far as a good one handed weapon, I advise one of the following...an incomplete list so I'm sure there's other good one handed weapons.
Thorn Spear or Enchanted Spear (cheap and pretty effective)...

Re: Favorite fantasy author

I found Robert Jordan's earlier books to be rather good, but they quickly degraded in quality, probably around the third book or so. Honestly, Eye of the World itself was a very good book however.

Re: new MOD:Elemental Kingdom

Interesting mod there...reminds me of that mod I was planning to make with a nation for each element and appropriate mages and troop attacks.
For example: Fire (Abysia) would have very high level...

Re: 500 Unrest?!!

Why's that a safeguard? It just gives me an excuse to drop taxes and use blood sages to blood search if I feel like it. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Re: Dominions II Bug Thread

Pocus, maybe the green dragon was in dragon form or you gave him a shape shift command. If not then this bug is limited to the dragon, as I have noticed pretenders that it certainly does not affect....

Re: What are the strongest summons?

That could be it actually, there's a turn limit at which the attacker is forced to retreat, and a couple turns afterwards all attacking units are killed if they haven't left yet. Golem's dont...

Re: Blessing Effects and National/Theme Starting Spells

Believe me, compared to the AI's capability to know exactly where your blood searchers are and cast fires from afar on them, arrows are positively benevolent. Every turn my mages weren't with fodder...
