Default Re: Suggestions to the devs: improving ME Ulm

Ahhh now that makes sense. I like that. And a nice rock-paper-scissors balance to it also.

"Ulm, having learned its lessons in the Early Era, has trained special assassins to target other nations mages."

Default Spies don\'t seem out of place to me.

After all, there have been plenty of spies in the mundane world.

A spy with a siege bonus would be interesting; let the bonus reflect having sufficient knowledge of engineering to identify likely weaknesses in fortifications.

Not sure the assasins would help. My experience with non-glamoured stealth units so far in Dom3 is that they have a very hard time. With the bigger economies and better troops, PDs of 25 are very common and 40+ is not rare, but stealth rating have not gone up. Thus- lots of assasins killed by PD. For instance, in one game i'm playing atm, 6 out of 7 enemy assasins have been nailed by my PD.
