Default Re: No one does it like the Bull...

I'm only a newbie but I have had great success with the Earth Mother (or Great Mother? forget name). Particularly with Pangaia, where I almost always set to Restless Worshippers, which gets me faster nice Dominion in provinces not yet controlled by Me (= she even better in combat there), plus gives me more cannon fodder (Maneads from the Pan). I usually equip her with some reinvig items asap (boots of the messenger, girdle or might). She does quite well. Never tried the Bull, because I dont like his magic setup, but the Mother seems like an even better deal to me. Just my two Eurocents.

Edit: oh and if I remember rightly, the Bull doesnt have much magic, but he also doesnt have many item slots. It is nice to be able to put a shield on the Mother, and some armor and boots too. Or give her a Midget Masher, that is fun.
