Default Re: Early strategy suggestions

Larger map with fewer AI nations set to Normal or lower difficulty might help.

Use a scout to determine which local provinces have weak independent defenders, and attack those first, usually beginning about turn 2.

Hire someone besides your pretender to do research, and perhaps give your researchers magic items which help them research faster. And/or, research and ritual/item cast with your pretender at home, while hiring someone else to do you your super-heroing and site-searching. Whom you can hire depends on your nation and independent sites you might find.

When a commander can't lead all your men, hire another commander.

Once you've chosen a nation to play, do a search on this forum for threads about the strategy of that nation. And/or search the web and/or Illwinter's web site for such (there are tips for all the nations which were in Dominions I, and the basics of those have generally not changed).
