Default Re: Mad rantings

having more units is not the same as having more than one way of playing a nation. I'm pretty sure most nations have more than one way of playing them even with a small number of units. Even with 2 ways of playing them a small number of units will be used. On the other hand if you make a nation with 2 VERY different ways of playing them you make 2 different nations anyway so then I don't see the reason to put them together. replayability: 2 nations would certainly give the same replayability as 1 with to much units.

anyway, more units are hardly much more work on the .dm file since a unit is easily created.

anyway sing, I'm not against units for flavor, I love that, but over doing it is another thing. Personally I never thing about strategies when making a nation, I just create the units I think flavor dictates they should have.
But when faced with a large number of unit idea's putting them in 2 balanced nations so more of the units can be used still is usefull (I'm very much in favor of the gusy working on greenskins doing a north and south version of them and Sombre had idea's for 2 empire nations)
