Dominions became the target of my hacking attitude early on. While others pursued each other up thru the chains of good-better-best strategys I took the discarded items and experimented to try and find a use for them. Early on in Dom you could only send things to human players. I was one of the people who pushed to have it changed. Ive usedit ever since with the poor AIs.

I sent gas-bladder sticks and cursing daggers and exploding amulets to nations that had too powerful commanders. I sent food cauldrons and herald lances to nations there were next to ermor. I sent air gems to caelum and nature gems to man when I played nations not susceptable to "call of the xxxx" attacks so that they would pester others. I basically supported whatever races with whatever items I felt my race would have no problem with when I finally had to confront them.

These arent necessarily abuses but if it becomes an automatically good thing to do then it would need fixed.
