Re: Nations - MA, CBM 1.6, max lvl 6 magic, NI, Assimilation mod - Running
Ghoul, it's kind of disappointing you think I setup games to favor myself but I'll mention a few things. First off, I was originally going to play Eriu but when Samhain expressed an interest in them I switched to Pan, since I was having fun with them in Celebrities. Second, if I create games to favor myself I'm quite a failure at it since I've never won one of my modified rules games. Lastly, Arco (and Eriu) are the two nations in this game best equipped to kill the gorgon. As Olm mentioned, I attacked that force because it was a large amount of low to average MR units with no mage support. The exact same techniques you used against Ulm's PoD would have worked against the gorgon - perhaps even more effective since sometime soon those mind burns will turn to soul slays.
Having said that, I'm inclined to agree with you that she's OP. My previous times playing Pan I went with an oracle for a scales strategy. I thought I'd try something different and thought she would also be a useful deterrent against a rush. But like I said, I think she's too much for these settings and that makes it not fun. So I'm going to assign her to a non-combat role, where I can actually also find good use for her. I didn't really put too much thought into her, other than as a rush deterrent, so this isn't a huge sacrifice. Most of my planning was based on strategies for my other units and that is unaffected.
