Boron said:But in Dominions 3 with the new feature age sages are probably already 80+ years old and die after around 30 turns so they are not anymore a nobrainer there i guess
Hmm, how do you get all those 80+ year old sages if 12 turns are a year? So the conclusions is that a library burns out after a certain number of sages have been recruited, right? Now that would also limit the sages...
You get them because they start at the age of e.g. 78 years when you recruit them ... .
Once they are then e.g. 80 years old ( = 24 Gameturns ) they have each turn a 5 or 10% probability to die of old age

Another idea a bit off topic but concerning slightly unfair stuff would be that AQs and other powerful creatures serve you for 10 turns when you summon them but after that in order to keep them serving you they demand resources .
AQs would e.g. be free for the first 10 turns , demand 2 Airgems per turn for the next 10 turns of service , then 5 Airgems for the following 10 turns of service etc. .
And they would keep the equipment .
Would also make the Uniquesummoning more interesting because you can try every 10 turns out of the blue a summoning and get maybe a fully equipped AQ .
If the AQ gets killed you get only an empty AQ though .

What do you think ?
