Default Re: Wow. Paralyze is the Super combatant killer!

Wow paralyze does seem powerful.

Maybe what really needs to be changed is not its power but its targeting. I like that it targets large supercombatants first. That part makes sense to me. No sense in your mages ignoring that huge golden naga casting devatating spells and paralyzing a front-line infantryman.

I just wish it would skip over normal-sized mages in its targeting list. Otherwise, astral nations would seem to have too much of an advantage. But if I (still a newb) have learned anything, it is that in Dominions things are often not as they seem.

What are people using as counters to the major astral nations in MP? How well does an amulet of antimagic work in this circumstance to prevent penetration? When I speak of counters, I am not really talking about protecting the huge supercombatant from the effect if there are two or more magi casting paralyze. That seems futile. I am speaking rather about preventing your combat mages from being completely neutralized.
