My one wish (so far).

I would like to be able to recruit the original troop types of a captured fortress. The first time I captured Machaka as Jotunheim, my hope was to produce spider knights. But, no, my Jotuns had completely eradicted the original inhabitants. Gods look for recruits in all shapes and sizes, so I doubt they would view all other races as not being able to contribute. Maybe not be able to recruit another nation's sacred troops, since they are more devout to the deposed god. Different recruits would also increase strategic depth. This could be provided as an option at game start-up.

Thanks,

There was a big discussion about this back in the fall IIRC. I was pushing the same idea you are suggesting, but people (inc. devs) thought it would take away from the uniqueness of each race. I can see their point I think - I wouldn't want an uber-nation who had all the best units and magics etc. Each race has its weaknesses, and that's a good thing IMHO.
