Excellent info. Do you have a Niefelheim or Agartha full build that Ballbarian can use for SemiRand?

I would love to see more well-designed setups for each nation added to the SemiRand program. I understand why the Dom3 program is mostly just random and thats fine. But some nation files that use specifically well chosen pretenders with specific designs (scales, dominion, magic) for that nation, maybe even some added starting units, equipment for the god, magic sites, etc would be great for the community. Too few well-designed pretenders for that program gets old as fast as totally random ones. We need to build up that library so that every nation has too many possible builds for you to anticipate who it is you are fighting.

If everyone turned in one design, it wouldnt even have to be a particularly kick-butt design (those might all be too much alike), then SemiRand could generate some really fun solo games. It would also be a great format to toss in some major surprise builds. Doing one around a specific unusual tactic or scales to see how well the AI does with it
