You could also consider w9 instead of e9. I think quickness and defense would be better than reinvig and armor, but I don't know if Pythium has a pretender they can successfully get w9 and n9 with.

Man, I just thought of something that would be cool for DomII, but I don't think would work with Dom3 because of how the eras work. You know how you can choose one special Dominion, such as a Theme, or Water Cult, or Restless Worshippers, etc? Well, I think a cool special would be something called "Armies of Legend" where all of a nations sacred troops are always blessed while they are within the gods dominion. This would be like a 50-100 point special, I think. Dom3 doesn't have special dominions, does it?

No, it doesn't. It would also cause some strange effects with one-shot effects, at least Twist Fate of Astral 9. Currently, it is only initiated when the unit is blessed.

Doesn't have special dominions at all anymore? I hope you mean it doesn't have dominions that change the nation's recruitable makeup, but that there are still Restless Worshippers, Golem Cult, and hopefully some new ones.

Sorry, but the selection of special selection powers went away. Some of the effects are in there, with some nations, but there are few that seem to have disappeared.

That's gonna hurt my Ulm game. I relied upon Ceremonial Faith every time I played Ulm, but I kind of expected this anyway. Besides, it's not like I'm a great player, lol.

That sucks.

I was looking forward to all the nation-changing dominions having been broken out into nations/eras, thinking we'd finally be able to do combos previously impossible, such as Last of the Tuatha / Water Cult.

Not to mention that it helped somewhat with variety, since a few of the dominions (Water & Golem Cult, for example) sometimes made a significant difference even with the same nation.

Yeah, it's kinda sad. Ahhh well.
