I much prefer the idea of a spirit in the otherworld lending some portion of divine strength from afar. I'd prefer to keep bless as is. That and I like imprisonment.

Please NOTE: Post your approval for suggestions others listed which you find important.
I will update the original topic allowing the developers to see which are in greatest demand.

Simple Ideas For Streamlining The Dominions Interface (cont...)

VIII) Hotkey (shift-i, "I") that allows you to forge an item on a monthly basis. (similar to the M hotkey for rituals)

IX) Hotkey (p) that stands for "previous commander without orders". The inverse of hotkey (n). Using both woud allow you to scroll forth and back.

1.3 Ghz CPU and 512mb RAM is just not enough. You should try to reduce the gfx settings, or buy a 3Ghz CPU and +1.5 GB RAM. Then you won't have any problems.
I have 2.8 Ghz and 1.0 GB RAM and the large battle scenes are usually "chuggy" for me, too. When I press "f" it's like nothing happens. A bit of engine optimization would be greatly appreciated.

I will just add my support to 8, 11, and 17 (storming casualty reports, fort construction status icon, and commanders repeating orders).

6) New Troop Orders = Allow new troop orders such as "Fire until Retreats" where archers will target the enemy group with the greatest numbers and will stop using missle weapons when the enemy is fleeing thus reducing casualties from friendly fire.
8) Battle reports from Storming Castles= Some of the most important battles occur while storming a castle yet no reports are available. Battle reports for storming castles would be greatly appreciated.
15) Have fleeing units stay in the province if the owner of the fleeing units is victorious.
16) Function to allow the disabling of specific combat spells.
Those are very good suggestions.

I agree....

- casualty reports on castle storming should be a must.

- Multiple Victory Conditions I strongly agree with

- AI doing bidding wars for Mercs

- greying out Items that you do not have the resources to make

- Castle Fort Status....maybe every turn....every other turn....in the messages at the start of each turn, list what provinces has a fortress being built, and how much longer until it is completed

- fleeing units SHOULD stay if you win

- I think any nation that does not have nation specific spells should be given spells for that nation. Not sure what nations other than Marverni that does not have them, but they need at least a couple

- maybe this one was listed in another form, but a mouse-over on the map screen when you place it over a commander to show what items, and what troops he is commanding.

- really, any UI improvement....anything that makes the game interface more transparent....so any UI improvement listed, I agree with!!

Those are the ones that I saw that I STRONGLY want to see...but really...any and all I would agree on....
