Default Re: What it will take for me to purchase Dom III

Hi everyone, it's my very first post on this forum.

I play Dominions for the last 2 months. I think that its one of the best strategy game ever.

I'm only concerned by what I'm reading here: It seems that national non-mage and non-priest troops become useless in late game, were summonning rules.

I think it's obvious that even trained Velites can't beat an Uber Arch Devil summoned directly from hell, but I also think that players shouldn't have to rely on summonning to win. To preserve diversity in term of strategy, I think many strategies have to be viable (by strategy, I dont mean just choosing a different path of magic to summon another NNE summon). A solution can be like this: in some other games, national Super-Elite troops (Devils, Dragons, etc...) can't be recruited at the beginning, you have to build expensives structures while having a strong economy.

I agree that this game is based heaily on magic (and I approve it), but I don't think that high level summoning should be the only viable option for very long games.
