Marignon is too nice. Make it Ermor. I am so evil.

"I will HURT anybody who says WORD ELF ANYMORE with BANEFIRE!"
"E..."

"ARARARARARARARARARAAAAAGGGHHH!"

Oh wait... It would take too much time from my Dragon and Illwinter worshipping. Damn, blood slaves are so hard to come by nowadays!

A little off topic maybe... but what is there exactly to hate about LOTR? Fine if you hate Tolkein and his books that's one thing. Whether or not you like the movies is another, but please realize that they are bringing the world of fantasy to a broader audience, and that to me is a good thing. Obviously there are obsesors about it (no worse than Star Wars though), but to get more people interested in elves, and orcs, and evil wizards, seems to me that would leed to more games with fantasy themes, more books, more movies... And most importantly more customers to pay the developers of these games, books, movies...

Ok 90% of them will suck, but 90% of them already suck, so would you rather have 10 good games or 100 good games? Its all a matter of scale...

Anyway, what is the complaint about elves and orcs? They are everywhere, they are in Dom 1 and probably in Dom2, even if they arn't directly called as such. Have you read Robert Jordan? Ok his books suck bad now, but he has orcs, he just calls them Trollocks (gee that's imaginative no?) He may not have elves per se, but he's got about every fantasy themed empire running around somewhere, even if he doesn't come right out and call them by a common name.

I hate elves because they are forest-running treehugging uber-"human" militarist hippies. They are just so throughly disgusting.
Orcs because when there is Elves, there is Orcs to figth them.
From my experience, there is no Orcs in Dom I. Goblins, yes, but no orcs. And i can take Vanir, afterall, they have a bit diffrent kind of roots in mythology.

It looks like some people are taking this topic TOO seriously.

Nerfix · #46 September 25th, 2003, 09:19 PM

Dominions is literaly a matter of faith to me.
It is taking a 50% of all my blood slaves, i wish they aren't wasted...

Kristoffer O · #47 September 25th, 2003, 09:23 PM

There is nothing wrong with orcs. Some orcs have epic qualities, some are fun and some are plain stupid, which is also fun.

Everyone likes a good AD&D orc

If you think a bit, you should know that the best would be to give us the chance to mod. Than everyone will be happy.

Maybe not Nerfix..but he is just a customer nothing more, nothing less.

Oh and LotR is awesome, and AD&D as well.

Oh no, i am much more than a customer. I am a faithfull Cultist, and even more faithfull Lurker.
Seems that you are getting only 3 blood sacrifices this month. Oh well, almost whole Finland and Sweden is under your Dominion...
