Wauthan,
I don't really have a cohesive strategy, but I have a few tricks that I like to use. I like to get all of the water provinces early, then I cast voice of tiamat to get a huge gem income. I also like building underwater temples and sticking in frog mages with jade knives to try and screw with my enemies dominion.
I basically keep building the same stuff then supplementing my armies with summons and items as I get more gems. I get a pretty good income by doing hyper-rapid expansion by taking a province a turn in the water with my Dagon and just try to outproduce my enemies.
Cor,
Wow, I didn't really think about using slaves. I'll definately try that next game. That fits well with my tendency to try to just make bigger armies then my enemies.
Ozy,
What is a good chassis for building a pretender with those paths? I definitely want to try that blessing. Plus it seems like those magic paths would allow for some great global enchantments/summons.
This stuff is great guys, thanks!
