Perhaps I will the next time I get out of the Solomons. The thing is that when Dom2 came out, everyone was saying like it was everything AoW should have been but wasn't so I gave it a miss.
It occurs to me that I buy games a lot based on recommendations on forums like this one. I bought Dom2 because PvK plugged it on the SEIV forum. I bought SEIV because someone (I forgot who, someone who used to be a regular of the SEIV forum) plugged it on Infogrammes' MOO3 forum. And I bought MOO3 on the strength of MOO1 and MOO2 alone. What a mistake that was.

yeah i bought dominions 2 because someone on the eu 2 board told me and i just downloaded demo and was addicted

i don't trust any pc testing magazines or softcore gamers anymore
age of wonders is like a more balanced but a less deep dominions with upkeep for everything (expect heroes but you can only have 0-5 of them depending which setting you chose in options when starting a new game ).
dominions is not imbalanced mages + scs are quite well balanced within each other and most nations / themes have a fair chance to win .
of the about 30 themes/nations 20 have fair chances but about 10 are sligthly inferior .
in sp you can play all but in mp you shouldn't chose the inferior ones
i did what you described with warcraft 3 because of my liking for starcraft .
but warcraft 3 is such a bad game .
until warcraft 3 i loved blizzard . it was my favourite game developer company .
since warcraft 3 i hate them lol .
i won't buy anything with warcraft in its name in future .
