Re: Momentum 2 - no hoarding, banned globals, tart changes, fast pace - Recruiting!
I agree Evo. doesn't work thematically and Ench. was actually my first thought. But my model was Gale Gate (Thaum. 8 for an air nation?!) and I wanted it to be out of the way. We'll see how it goes, but this and possibly adjusting tart costs will be the most likely changes if there is a second game with these settings.
As far as Maelstrom, it seems to me that water nations are one of the two types (the other being fire) with an incentive to go to Evo. 8/9. If Maelstrom is cast less than the other gem gen globals it may be due in part to the fact the water gems are not viewed very highly (apart from clamming). This is definitely not the case with death gems - I think people will research a school just to get WoM (especially with the changes to tarts). If they are a fire/water nation they'll just get an additional bonus from its placement in Evo. in this game.
