Gift of Reason

Wise beta-testers tell me, will we still have Gift of Reason in Dom II?

I play a lot Pangea (or nature-heavy man) because no one else in my group wants to and I've learned to love this spell. One game I had a mage who would cast the domination spell a lot - I would end comabt with various enemy creatures on my side. I loved to cast Gift of reason on them and give them a crown of command and send them back against thier fromer master as a general - just to add panache.

Or Gift of reason a cave drake and then school him in magic for a non-pretender tank mage.

Why would have they removed GoR from Dominions II?

Yes, Gift Of Reason is still here and kicks ***. I like to use it to in specific situations; one time I gave it to Tarrasque (great dragon) so he can lead troops and use breath weapon while they protect him. Its really interesting spell and I like having it in game.

Hey, wait...

In Dom1 dragons were pretenders. How could you have a Tarrasque, except as a pretender, and if you did, why did you need to cast Gift of Reason to it?
*shudder*...
Oh, wait... Wish? Uh-oh. I wouldn't like to be opposing a nation who can make things like THAT!

Speak about spell-combos!

Thanks! Love that spell. I recall dominating Bogus one time (I think it was Bagus) and makeing him my general.
