Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
*shrug* Most any nation, played correctly can be pretty scary. I don't think Lanka is really any scarier than any of the other uber sacreds running around EA. Vans, jaguar warriors, and Niefls the strategy is pretty much no different....grab your ankles if you can't manage to dance around and stall them long enough to get critical research done.

Van-types (other than Helheim) have capital-only sacred, which makes huge difference. Same with Niefel. Jaguar warriors are great, but they die easily. The scary thing about Lanka is that they have non-capital tough-like-nails sacred troops that are incredibly difficult to kill (with a proper bless), especially for the race such as Sauromatia, which has no priests and no direct battle magic. |

Open an instance, let it hang up, then open a new instance of Dominions. The second one should connect. The bug happens every once is a while when games have numerous players.

Yes, it is happening with me as well. In addition to this I often can't switch from hanged up version of dominion, no can I close it. (Alt-tab, ctrl-alt-del are not working).
After several hard reboots I came up with workaround, kindof - I open Dominion in windowed mode, let it hang, then I can at least switch to non-frozen version of Dominion.
But this is pretty annoying. Is this bug likely to happen every turn for the rest of the game? Any idea why does it seems to affect only some players? |

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
Anyone not playing this game want to do me a favor and turn Helheim to AI?

I may be wrong, but I think it's unlikely that anybody other than players are reading this thread on a regular basis. |

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
Was there a good explanation on why Helheim went AI? Did they even communicate their desire to go AI? I find it pretty thoughtless to join a game and go AI (especially to just abandon it without any word) so soon and will avoid said players in future MP games. End rant.

It happens every game man. You just have to deal with it and move on.
