Re: Game balance suggestions.

I need some help understanding this too Zen. From the clam's description it looks like it only produces a pearl each "season" - every three turns. Also, don't you have to have the clam equipped on...

Re: Please point me in the right direction, help me get started!

As you can see Tex Pete, there's as many "good ways to get started" as there are people who play. I'll give a few pieces of advice that helped me get over the hump:

Your force looks plenty tough to me (what do I know?), but you're up against ULM for goodness sake! Preach him out!

Re: Tactics: How can I use my Commanders and my Pretender efficiently in Battle?

Tactical positioning can be very nation-specific and depends a lot on what you plan to face and which spells you want to cast. Here's a few things that weren't obvious to me when I started:

Re: Move Along, Nothing to See Here

Do you mean to retract your complaint that the game is unpolished and has a poor interface? I didn't understand that from your post that you'd been playing the Dom 1 demo rather than that of Dom 2. ...

Just a quick note about scripting the change. Try to make sure your pretender is in the correct form before Hosting. I've foolishly left my pretender in Dragon form with a scripted shift -> Attack!...
