And there's a reason why TC Spring and Autumn has been my personal favourite since I got Dominions2.

BTW, does the misfortune 3 hurt or does it HURT? Is it totally normal to get turn after turn unrest increasing events on your capital? Speaking with order 3. Of course, having unrest just makes it more probable for new brigangs appearing, so it might just be bad luck, but anyway.

Missfortune is not that big deal with 3 order. The number of events you get is caped, so when your nation grows bigger you are not going to notice the missfortune really. The problem is early on if you have a stroke of bad luck i suppose, since it can hamper your growth if you get unrest at your capital. Im almost always using atleast mis 1-2, and im usually fine. You just have to cross your fingers i suppose

Well i have gotten a plague in my capitol on turn 2 before(with great scales but misfortune 2) which reduced it to 14k pop.

With my 6th choice i ended up with ma ctis.

On a huge map, here is my initial game plan.

Took a sleeping master lich 5d 2f 2a 2e with 3 order, 3 heat,
3 growth, 9 dom. Basically i will use pretender to hunt for gems and summon undead. Being immortal, it will not matter much if he is killed.

typically when i play ctis i have an awake thug pretender.

Any thoughts?

I'm no expert, but are you dead set on master lich? The saurolich costs a bit more, but has 17 natural prot and some hp, in contrast to master lich's pitiful 5. Saurolich could be useful also in battle, but you probably won't be able to pay for all the scales and high dominion.

I feel immortality's no use if you're not going to put your pretender into the line of fire, but YMMV as always.
