Mod: MegaVanilla "lets play chess" mod

[Gandalf Parker]

Hmmmm..... I might have to mod replacements.
Give everyone?

A) 8 mages and each has 1 in a magic type

but that shuts down some strategies that need combination magics.

B) mages with 3 randoms off of all magic magic types

But that brings luck back heavily into the game. Trying to get the combo for the spell or equipment vital to your strategy

C) create slightly different nations and have each one a slight lead in two magics.

That way they can select the nation they need. But then how many combinations is that? (Im terrible at math)

D) create 8 nations and have each get a mage with 1 in a specific magic and 2 randoms of any magic.

That allows for maybe getting 3 in the same magic. Not too bad. People can select the nation which boosts them toward their strategy. But are we then back to the original premise of Dominions? They still will go up against a nation who is balanced against them. Same strengths and weaknesses.
