But(shame on me) I still have another question(And i don´t want to open another Threat):

Me and my friend play a lot hotseat, but we worry, that the motivation will decrease if we are not able to „build“ or „raise“ one hero/pretender/god in different sessions.

Maybe you know what i mean, we would like to choose the same pretender again and again, maybe with one or two commanders with him together.

Is there any way to do this?

I still only have the demo, but if you have already created a pretender for a nation, you can use this single pretender for more than one game, provided you do not "create a new god" in the main menu before creating a game.
However, you will not be able to change your dominion setting, or your special theme.

You cannot, however, take leaders other than your pretender from one game to another, AFAIK.

Does that mean, that this pretender remains his/her skills and XP?

And what about his Items?

DO i have to play the whole map before i "export" the pretender?

No, your pretender is exactly the same one you started your previous game. No additional skills, no experience, no items.

EDIT: Just to make my previous post a bit clearer:
Effectively, you do not export your pretender to another game, but you start a new game playing the same nation with a new pretender, who just happens to be the same one you started your previous game with.

It might be possible to make a new .map file in which you defined the pretender of the nation of your choice to be the one with whom you won your Last game. That might not work, though, because with modding tools some restrictions were added to prevent that happening in multiplayer games.
Remember to modify the scales too, and starting dominion power, if you can do this. Otherways it takes them from the latest god you created for the nation...

Dzbabi,

To answer all your questions on the effects of dominion, read this excellent guide written by ceremony:

http://www.maladjustite.com/dominion.pdf

Found with the "Search" link at the top of the page (though I knew it existed). But the search button is an invaluable resource for answering questions that you suspect may have been asked before.

Hope this helps you out.
