Almost forgot this old pet peeve of mine -
One thing I'd really like to see in Dom 3: balanced recruitment for national troops. Eg, Arco has hoplite infantry and light cavalry, everybody likes the former but nobody uses the cavalry. The game should track troop recruitment and make overused troop types more expensive over time (or underused ones less expensive) to give players an incentive to field more balanced armies.

I second this.. sounds like a great idea! Perhaps do something similar with summons, so that you might have to think about actually getting some demon knights instead of more devils (no way!
).
Reduce the strategic use of flying. I mean, if a 2 strat move army can't march across a friendly plain and then engage the enemy the same turn, why can one fly over a territory and still be ready to fight?
I'd like to see water gems have a use besides clams. It should also have dominance of underwater battle spells.
On madcastling, raiding, and forts in general: Why should an entire army be able to hide inside a watchtower so that you have to break the door before you can even fight it? It should simply provide arrow support to any friendly troops, as should any fortress that doesn't have true walls. Also, a different movement scheme would be nice, so you can actually have a chance to catch those god damn raiders. This would also help reduce madcastling, as then you could counter raiders by other means. But hey, not everyone thinks madcastling is a problem.
Less emphasis on lifedrain. I mean, there really should be other weapons to consider putting on most SCs. Maybe just make lifedrain weaker, or getting it more expensive. I personally would like to see SCs in general weakened a little, but I'm in a small minority in saying that...
Where are the really sexy dragons? I personally dislike the pretender dragon's ability to turn into a human. Very unsexyish.
I would also like to see some really cool non pretender dragons. I guess there is the Torrasque, but it's not like thats very useful competetively. The problem is that life drain is so important that not having arms kills the dragons.
