Did you mean 'still 0.5' ?
It's 0.6 now. I was having trouble uploading.

Ummm ... yeah. That's what I meant.
I started another test game with v0.6. This time, I picked an imprisoned Oracle with E9S4N4 and five candles. Scales were Order 1, Productivity 3, Cold 1, Growth 1, Luck 1, and Drain 3. As before, I picked the Silent Seas wraparound map and one Easy AI opponent.
More thoughts:
- I really like the two new Holy battle spells.
Smite the unbelievers! Heal the faithful!
- I love the new national summoning spells, but I think they might be a bit overpowered at Level 0. That much oomph should require a little research first. Perhaps they should be Conjuration 4 or 5?
- Sternheld make great archers. A lucky random event gave me a Storm Bow, which I promptly gave to my Sternheld. ZOT!
- Hoch-Hammers are extremely impressive, especially if you prophetize one of them. Actually, I'm worried that they might be a bit overpowered.
However, those killer hammers only get two shots, and then they're basically just overpriced Hochmeisters....
- I really like the division that you made between the three priest commanders. Each one has his own role now. Black Acolytes for stealthy preaching, Black Priests for summoning hordes of chaff, and White Priests for Divine Blessing & magic support.
- Speaking of hordes of chaff ... three or four Black Priests accompanying your army make for a neverending supply of free Penitents.
Pretender suggestions:
- Please make the Forge Lord (id #1230) an available pretender for Ulm Reborn. Forging & Ulm go together like coffee & donuts!
- The Divine Glyph (id #1025) and/or the Sacred Statue (id #472) might also be thematic.
- The Scorpion King (id #655) might not be thematic, but he'd sure be a great chassis for a killer F9E9 bless.

Iron Faith Ulm is really shaping up to be a great nation. You've done an excellent job in keeping the theme, while still making a nation with some interesting playability and potential.
You win a medal! [img]/threads/images/Graemlins/icon44.gif[/img]
