Drain Life

At 80 gems, you'd basically relegate just every summonable commander to the "don't bother" pile.

You are saying that without a life drain weapon summonable commanders are not worth the gems. That sounds like a problem.

Sounds like Graeme's problem. One of my favorite part of the game is using thugs, rather than SC's... which, yes, mainly means not using life drain weapons, because they seem so out of balance price to effect.

I like armies of mortal troops, too, and Ulm and TC, so I guess I like most of Graeme's "don't bother" pile. Of course, though I've been playing Dom and Dom II for a couple of years and really enjoying it, I haven't played a whole lot of really competetive big-map high-magic games, haven't done much clam hoarding or SC using and have never cast Wish even once.
