Default Re: Jotunheim:Utgard AAR

Personally, I'm thinking Conjuration 5 looks like a good next target. With Construction 4 imminent, the acquisition of water gem income, and the recent rediscovery of Skrattis, it may be time to start producing those Clams to crank out the astrals. In my experience, you can never have too many Astrals: They are by far the most useful gem type in the game. Combine with the fact that there aren't all that many uses for water gems, as most of the water spells I like tend to be either inexpensive, or free combat spells. Most Water GEs, the really heavy sources of gem expenditure, are undesirable for casting or just not that impressive for a non-aquatic nation.

Gift of Health is a good thing to have, but with a puny 19 nature gems in your treasury and a mere 2 per turn, I don't see that happening anytime soon. Takes at least 200 gems to make a GE stick vs. the AI, and anything worth doing is worth doing with excessive force, as I always say. So clearly, a good starting target is Conj-5, for Acashic Record. Search those provinces good and proper.
