Hmm? What game are you talking about Cain? Surely it's not Dom2. Magic 3 is one of the best MP scales in Dom2 in general, right after the Order 3, and even more important than Order for some nations. And taking Magic 3 is no more difficlut than taking one other scale 3. It is just 120 points, no more and no less. And in most situations it well worth it.

I'm referring to the game where many nations and themes really require high order and sometimes high productivity as well. The game where the Magic scale has diminishing returns. You know - the ones where many nations don't have 40-120 free points from the temperature scale. The one where you got your butt handed to you by Cohen in a tournament...

Given how bad Cohen is, maybe your belief in Magic-3 helps to explain this?
