[Xietor]

See my Pangaea thread. The Gorgon does not need 10 dominion.
She does need air magic to avoid crossbows and for mistform mirror image. I start sleeping gorgon, 5e, 4n, 3a, 6 dominion, with 3 order, 2 prod, 1 growth, 2 heat. That makes for a very strong economy. Gorgon is a super combatant of top rank, but the 30 hps make her, more than other scs, one that you use only inside your own dominion. She flies and can put out fires within Pangaea's own dominion.

She does bring air to the table, and if you get a centaur commander that has a good hall of fame ability, can make him a shield that stops arrow damage, that combined with regen ring can make the centaur a minor sc in his own right.

But I advance and siege castles with my armies, not my Gorgon. I have lost her in enemy domain several times, and I now am patient and advance with armies and use her to control my domain and search for air sites.
