Worst Moments!

[ManInGray]

What are your worst moments in dominions 2.

[moodgiesanta]

I lost on turn 7 with Mictlan because of dominion.

[PvK]

Getting beloved heroes stomped by giants.

Setting fire to my own mummified general by starting them out in my own devil's heat aura, losing a major battle, an irreplacable commander, and a large amount of undead. (It was classic though - well worth the agony!)

Defending my home castle from Marignon using my pretender, and having my pretender flee with nowhere to retreat to. Game over shortly thereafter.

Trying to make a Natajara supercombattant with multiple swords of quickness, and getting a chest wound that made it so he couldn't fight very long without getting exhausted. Then getting flattened by Tien Chi rolling through with celestial giants and whatnot. Game over shortly thereafter.

Sending my giant trampling Shedu pretender fly over and attack a group of a dozen crossbowmen, and having them bring it down in melee combat with their sidearms.

Having my best men shot in the back by friendly fire from moronic ranged attack AI.

Actually from Dominions I:

Getting other beloved heroes stomped by giants.

Having large amounts of elite Ulmish heavy infantry die trying and failing to kill an enemy naga who had cast Soul Vortex.

Having large amounts of elite Ulmish heavy infantry die to poison gas attacks.

Having large amounts of elite Ulmish heavy infantry and heroic commanders etc get cursed all in one casting of Doom.

Having my best men shot in the back by friendly fire from moronic ranged attack AI.

Ouch. Talk about a morale nuke. I can see the faces of the crossbowmen now, eyes as big as pie plates.

Dislike the AI, eh?

[gibson]

Having prophet and another expensive priest killed by a moronic AI mage casting Breath of Winter and then all three of them charging the fleeing enemy, bringing them close enough that the BoW killed off the priests.

Getting two nasty afflictions on my Dagon pretender with regen and high defense/protection from a measly spear hit from a Machaka milita.

Dagon pretender dying in the webs of 3 Machaka spiders, but not before racking up another 3 afflictions.

(And the redeeming moment, destroying Machaka's nation without the help of a pretender).

Forgetting to change commander orders and watching them charge into the fray and die, thus routing their troops.

Forgetting to have someone carry my extra gems and watching my mages waste them all casting stupid spells against already defeated enemies.

The list goes on...
