Oh honestly who gives a crap? By the time you're slapping all that magic on somebody you might as well add "body ethereal" and start with any creature at all.

But then you have to give up one of the other five buffs.

The legend of how awesome Vampire Queens are was started by a man who played Ashen Fields Ermor and cheated for hundreds of gems starting from turn 1! Sure, he was unstoppable, but it wasn't because of the Vampire Queen.

Norfleet cheated? huh. I played against him a few times.

The Ancient Olhm can do everything the VQ is claimed to do except that he starts with magic that is actually useful (Water and Earth) and a decent pile of hit points. Vampire Queens have an awesome mystique about them, but they aren't even particularly good unless you happen to be a blood power.

Dominions 2 vampire queen....
If you accidently run an ancient olhm into some undead, it'll get tired. And die. A VQ has 0 encumberance.
If your opponent hates your ageless Olm enough, he'll cast vengeance of the dead 20 times, which will get through sooner or later. Doesn't work on undead.
An ageless olm, fighting constantly, will eventually get horrible afflictions. On a VQ they go away quickly.
And if you slightly overestimate an indep province, or a huge enemy army in your dominion, you're screwed with the Olm.
You cant put a hat and armor with +magic resistance on an ancient olm. Nor boots of quickness.
You cant attack a province 3 steps away any time you want.
