Re: Name that nation!
I'm really liking new age. I restarted on the ME map (had to try an ME map) and started in Mordor. The income from the wasteland sucks, but there's a lot of choke points that the AI loves to batter itself against.
I finally broke out and found Abyssia's home, which I stormed thanks to the minos. I'm going to have to spend a bit of time consolidating and building magic items - my guys are feeling rather nekkid right now. :-)
I got one great hero as a random event - the harpy queen. She comes with a supply of harpies that seems to keep growing most of the time (though not when she moves, I think). Basically, I have a flying spellcaster with a move of three, 2 nature and 2 air. Once I build some items, that should be 3 air and 4 nature, but either way she's one of the best support units I've seen in the game.
