Default Re: Time for a poll. (The subject is abuse)

I would not be worried about overnerfing. The only example of that in Dominions so far has been the Vampire Queen and the circumstances that led to that are very specific and unusual. Currently that particular overnerf has been sitting on the bug shortlist as a statfix issue for a while. The only thing that I immediately remember as being substantially nerfed over the course of Dom3 has been the Van cavalry and Helhirdings and most of that was done with modest price increases and by changing the Glamour/Mirror Image mechanics so that it became more vulnerable to arrows. Blade Wind is another thing that got toned down some but it's still plenty good enough to use and won't see anymore downsizing.

Johan and Kristoffer will fix the things they consider the most important and the rest will get fixed when it gets fixed. If it gets fixed at all, that is, because some of the more esoteric and minor stuff may well be more trouble to fix than it's worth considering they have a new project underway.

If anyone wants an idea about what the biggest stuff left is, the red items on the shortlist and some of the purple are the ones to look at.
