Baalz, I think you missed part of my statement:

thats 10% dead, +20% feeblemind with +3 luck. Don't get me wrong .. I *love* transform - but with a couple of CBM Blood wizard exceptions, I don't generally find it mp competitive.

So here's my prospective build for MA-Oceania:

Pretender: F4W4E4A4D4N4, Dom 4
Scales O3 D3 C3

First turn: Prophetize a siren. You could wait for for a bishop
in order have a H4 site searcher - but I find the utility of the siren much higher. Flying move 3. You are going to find a lot of kelp fortresses - the prophetized siren gives you quick options to lab/temple them.

Plus, the sirens can help you quickly find land sacred sites. The first couple of turns Research with your pretender. You don't want to fail a conquest and end up with your pretender twiddling.

With this build, I'd start on Construction immediately, to get the pearl factory going.
