Default Re: Why no love for Caelum?

a big problem though is that when trying to say why one nation is so good you always overlook something because dominions 2 is so deep and has so many choices .

though e.g. abysians demonbreds are capitol only with 5-10 devils as troops they can do probalby the same but are even a bit stronger .
they can't do that earlygame in so big numbers but midgame abysia has vampire hordes then .

caelum though has the big advantage of staff of storms then to win time to cast more battlespawns ( lesser horrors ) .


i still think though if you play a 1on1 with 2 players of similiar experience game caelum is almost impossible to beat .
vanheim may come close but the vans are more expensive , can't fly + have no W for quickness .
pythium i think doesn't win too because there caelum can scout + seeking arrow some expensive theurgs/arch theurgs earlygame .
furthermore pythium doesn't have +120 freepoints through cold 3 and has slow movement .


if you want someone very expierienced (ZEN) could agree to play a urgaia blitz against a very good caelum player .

if he wins clearly then i will stop my claiming that stormbinder is true and perhaps stormbinder will too .

i really can't imagine though how he can do this .
