Dominion: 9

luck 1 and the rest to the bad 3 (heat 3)

Thist troops are really killers to all non-arrow troops.

The combination of Defence 19(!) and Twisted Fate is a really good defence!

Flame Weapons (they have to do more damage) + a good attack (16) + quickness are dangerous enough for even the hardest in close combat.

I've no problems to recruit 9 each turn (only 15 gold and 4 res.!) and this is enough to handle 50 men-troops (knights, haevy cavalry and haevy infantry) very easy.

I play this combination in a mp game started 3 weeks ago and i'm top 1 with this in moment.

Great Problem: Every Javalin or Arrow is a kryptonite

Well, surely it's very efficient at expansion vs indies, but I'd be surprised this could Last long in a MP...
You should get decimated as soon as another player attacks with a missile army and some magic... With all those crappy scales you'd be broke, with units suffering form heat, unrest everywhere, research going nowhere (Drain 3 means a Theurg has 3 RP...). Will Pythium become Ermor ?
But maybe I'm wrong, I hope that for you ...
