Seriously?!?

I'm beginning to see why it's so difficult to reach any real consensus on these forums... this game is so varied and complex that different players will enjoy the game for completely dichomotic reasons.

I enjoy the strategic elements of Dominions 3, but I LOVE the scripting and placement... it's only painstaking when I actually care about the results - and caring about the results means it's worth the time invested - so it's not tedious to me.

K, your view is very interesting. I don't think we can reduce this to a factual disagreement since it's very much about taste and preference of players. So clearly there's no black and white here

I guess a lot of ppl share my feelings towards gem gens as contributing to significantly raise end game MM. Perhaps in small games they can be ok, but certainly not for moderate to large ones. It’s a very delicate balance but for now I think I’d rather go w/o them.
