Default Yay! first to write about this!

Excellent mod Foodstamp. One of the more unique playing styles for sure. I'm only about mid game with them, and I've been concentrating more on their summons but here are my thoughts thus far:

Seducing commanders is awesome! Granted, I guess I don't know the mechanics behind seduction that well. Can you only seduce in provinces adjacent to your capital, or must they be next to a province you own with a fort? I had no trouble seducing at the beginning but when I roamed my nymphs further abroad, was unable to bring back any commanders, said I had no place to take them. Granted, I didn't expand with mercs like this nation so obviously should, what with all the gold and noone to recruit it on. Which leads into my next thought.

The dominion spawn rate seems a bit slow. Again, I don't know all the mechanics behind these things (like does a stronger dominion spawn more? My Druid pretender had a dom strength of 6) but it takes FOREVER to spawn a force big enough to expand with. Again, mercs are the sure fire way to go here early on so maybe my point is moot. And are there more flavors of domspawns? All I've seen so far are forest zealots and sprites.

Also, I think all the Ent commander summons should come with some magic. Only because my ancient ent simply sits at my capital doing nothing, the lazy bastard. I like the idea of the ent hurler, just wish he could move so I could see him in action.

Overall, an awesome mod. I highly recommend it. Though it may be more for experienced players instead of novices. But you get the hang of it quick.
