Default Re: Why do people hate on Ulm?

Dominions also has a bunch of things that can be learned only w/ "hard" nations: to really appreciate the strengths/weaknesses of blood magic, communions, and bless tactics, players really need to try (or read the forum about) nations that are good at those, and see how they work. Ulm, alas, has none of those.

I really wish MA Ulm worked somehow, that courage and steel could overcome magic, but so far, nobody's been able to figure out how.

Pshawoom, I say to those who lack the faith and courage. Even the strongest mage bleeds and even the most devout priest trembles with fear. Who cares about swords! Heavy things that crush and deform, that's the way. We come!

Ulm just sucks Kamamura. Get over it. I never even liked them in SP when I was a newbie. Come at me with Ulm in an MP game. I'll show you how it hurts.

Sorry. That was harsh. I just have never seen the appeal of ULM.
