Re: Great minds think alike?

Everything has it's advantages and disadvantages.

I like my Rainbow mages with 1 in every path, plus 4 in one or two key paths (Nature and Earth for Pangea for example). Someone posted a...

Re: At what difficulty does the AI cheat?

The AI does know your province defense the turn you set it. I think this might be linked to the fact that you cannot "unbuy" province defense purchased that round, as if it gets saved. It is clear...

Re: Game Mechanics Tips and Tricks

When you right click on a unit in battle, a window comes up with that unit's stats. You can right-click (I think) on both the number, and the the state name.

For example, it might say Morale: 12....

Re: What determines whose Global spell sticks?

ceremony is correct that his was cast first, and mine cancelled his. What surprised me was that I did this using fewer gems.

What determines whose Global spell sticks?

Was playing Online with a friend, and we both cast Gift of Health on the same turn.

Me: Nature Magic 5, 41 Gems used
Him Nature Magic 5, 51 Gems used

Despite using fewer gems, MY Gift of...

Re: Burden of Time

My favorite route for dispelling Burden of Time (or anything else) is to use the Coytl. An Earth 1 Astral 1 mage can summon one. The Cotyl has Earth 3, Astral 3, and can dispel. It is a way to...

Re: How would you beat my missle troops?

Massed missile troops are standard fair for multiplayer games. They are exceedlingly effective against the AI, and very good against human opponents as well. So if you are up against a human, they...

Re: Full Magic Sites List

Re: Blood slave units - transfer?

The AI DEFINITELY has some info on the province defence levels you set that turn (i.e., information that wouldn't show up in the province report of a spy). I have hundreds of examples of AI...

Re: Most Beloved Individual Units?

At the humble end, the Ulm Crossbowman. What other highly effective range unit wears sufficient armor to stand up to a cavalry charge and only costs 10 gold?

At the higher end, I like nothing...

Re: the (AI) message "Nation X has declared war on your unholy nation"

An easy way to get lots of AIs to attack you is to have low province defences. Boosting those up has proven to be a great way to keep most of the AI neutral.

It seems the AI likes to pick on...

Re: Dissapointed

I think the AI command of spell casting works very well. Of course there are battles where I scream at a mage for casting an inapprorpiate spell, but in fact minimizing these can be mastered by unit...

Re: Is Vanheim generally considered overpowered? Just asking, I dont claim to know.

40 Valkyries? That's a huge wad of gold. Just play Abysia, make a couple Soul Contracts, and let the Devils pile up. By the time he has been able to buy 40 Valkyries, you'll have twice that number...

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

The benefit of not having to pay upkeep on the PD is huge. Army upkeep can eat up 80%+ of your income every turn.

Having a real army defend in a province with decent PD is a great asset. I...
