I gave Soul Gate a quick try Last night. The Wraith Centurions are ridiculously fun. I tried to use them mostly them in my own dominion. That plus the significantly reduced freespawn rate meant SG didn't have the unstoppable juggernaut feeling of AE. Expansion was very calculated and borders were carefully defined.

It never ceases to amaze me that ievery race and theme has a completely different feel. I've played a bazillion TBS games and only MoM comes close to matching the variety and flavour of Dominions.

I am not happy.

I found a site with a 20% conjuration bonus. Woohoo, Dusk Elders for 16, Wraith Centurions for 12! I quickly built a lab and castle. To my horror I discovered that my Dusk Elders still cost 20, and my Wraith Centurions were still 15. Researched conjuration spells received the 20% reduction, but not the starting ones.

That is really, really irritating.

those are national spells not conjuration spells; ie. they are not listed under the conjuration school either ingame or in the manual.
