Go to the directory that your dominions maps is in.
Make a copy of aran.map and call it mine.map
open mine.map with WordPad

find the line that says #dom2title Aran
change it to read #dom2title Mine

Now go all the way down to the end of the file

Add these lines..........
#god 4 604
#scale_chaos 4 3
#scale_lazy 4 3
#scale_unmagic 4 -3
#dominionstr 4 7
#comname "Myne"
#mag_astral 9
#mag_fire 4
#mag_earth 4
#mag_priest 6


This will give Ulm (nation 4) the god of the original Lord of Night (which can still summon Fiends of Darkness). It also gives dominion strength of 7, the name of Myne, 9 in astral magic, 4 in fire, 4 in earth, and priest powers of 6 (wow what a cheat). Now just start a new game and select Ulm, whatever opponents you want, and play on the map called "mine".

Other gods you might consider are
247 the Freak (without the Lord rider)
404 the Vampire Lord (because I dont want to play a queen)
440 the Paladin (because he looks cool)
491 the Harvester of Sorrows
521 the Abomination
621 the TreeLord
623 the King of the World (huge horror)
762 the Vastness
810 the Lord of Hell
945 the Shade King

Disclaimer: this will only work with that game map and will not allow you to use that god with multiplayer games.
