Default Re: What kind of sock puppet are you?

I prefer to be a dirty, low down, defensive-specialist. I dislike attacking, but I love seeing the enemy fall into traps. I like to expand quickly for a short period of time, and then hold on to what I've got.

I also go for quality over quantity for troops, which fits into my guerilla-tactics mentality.

My friends would decscribe me rather as "You can be sure than one day Chacal will backstab you" so i have a bad reputation. And I love to play the bad guys anyway.

In Dom 3 I consider myself as pacifist, until i have a big advatage on somebody. Anyway I consider myself as a poor player and I loose a lot. But the most important is to take fun, not win, at least for me.

Maybe the difference is that the Dom3 computer AI can't never say anything about me

So the AI can say something about you?

Double negatives are fun.

Just to join in: I usually choose a diplomatic role, and base my strategy on the nation's units' descriptions. As an example, I've played EA Agartha with Pale One/Ancient One armies with just few Troglodytes for support.

Also, I choose weird names. "Emppu, the Devourer of Apples", the Manticore etc, or "Lord of the Seven Teas" for Tien Chi when it was winter and I was constantly drinking tea to keep warm.

I always find it amusing in times of peace and frightening in times of war, how people are compelled to combine a sense of honor with military actions.

And I would reverse that. Which probably means the world is split on the subject. Unfortunately, it only takes one person seeing it as a joke to ruin it for all of us.

Without honor, there are no pacts. Without pacts, winning is much more random. If you can't trust anyone at all, you can't combine your forces.

I agree that sometimes the pacts should be broken. That's what makes the game fun.
