The Ages
I will be buying Dominions 3 this weekend and have never played a Dominions game before (except the demo). I really enjoyed the demo, love the theme, and am close to obsessed with the game. Currently reading up on the game in various threads in this forum and at strategywiki.
Searched for a topic that gave a basic overview of the ages and gave recommendations for new players and was unable to find one.
The wiki, and a few threads express the following opinion on the Ages:
Early Era- magic sites are more common, powerful mages and sacreds are more accessible, heavy armor is rare. The focus is on magic.
Middle Era- balanced.
Late Era- Magic is more rare and there is more emphasis on soldiers/conventional warfare.
I'm currently deciding what age to play my first game in. Middle Era seems like the way to go, but I'd like the opinions of more experienced players on this.
1. What is the most interesting era to play in?
2. What would be the best era for a new player to play in?
