Actually, given your previous Posts mentioning clam hoarding and using the wish spell, it sounds like Wish is the thing that is too powerful, because you can make any number of very highly overpowered late game strategies using it.

Which is why, I believe, there's an official mod that removes Wish from the game. End of problem.

removing wish would be really bad because it disadvantages those nations for which it was designed more likely too much .
especially ryleh + atlantis are those nations .

Actually, I think Wish was designed for SP games more than it was "designed" for R'lyeh and Atlantis.

The other thing about your strategy - it might work once against a given set of players, but the next time they play against you and see you taking one of the blood or astral nations, they're simply going to go out of their way to stomp you early, instead of going after independents.
players should play without having earlier games in mind .
nobody can win if several players ally earlygame against him .


since most ppl who play dominions are very mature and know that this would be childish making pregame alliances only to take revenge because they lost in an earlier game i hope it doesn't happen anyways .

edit :
p.s. i remember that in an older post i think either gandalf or johan said that clams were designed for atlantis especially .
so i think you can say wish was designed for them too cause wish is one of the best uses for your clam astral pearls
