Default Re: Iron Faith: Comments and Suggestions

Rainbow pretenders can work well for Ulm, and I'd say particularly for Iron Faith, because the RB pretender can get the Black Priests "started" with a set of power-boosting items, after which they can go to town with boosting items and manufacture just about anything.

My first try at this (and my second game of Dom2 - first was Arco and the Marignon AI wiped me out) was extremely successful. Pretender was a rainbow Ghost King, who made death gem income quite easy, thanks very much - all research is performed by lowly necromancers and revenants equipped with skull mentors and other research boost items. The above technique was used to get a "full house" of Black Priests with hammers and boost items forging and casting just about anything. I even have blood magic going on thanks to the random picks. The Ghost King can also deal with, or if needed, serve as, a supercombatant, but that wasn't really necessary.
