Others of the 200 gp barbarian mages occassionally suffer from much less old age; they could be thugs. Spirit Masters survive stray arrows better, but 200 gp would still be a streep price to pay for such a mage. IMHO, it works out in Late Age with more gold around and thanks to the versatility of the three mages.
Stray arrow are VERY important to mages. Even in Dom2 they're the main early cause of mortality in battlemages and now with shortened casting ranges, larger armies, and weakened storms, it's going to be even worse. That change will at least double his life expectancy clearing indies. Even against player mage armies it helps since a nontrivial amount of spells do basic damage. And against the other spells they have a very nice MR.

Would love to see some more marverni screenies if possible.
Preferably some nationals or even national summons
I just read about this nation and know NOTHING about them
Will there be 3 eras for them ?

DOES THIS SCARE YOU?
Never mind. Getting a game this large takes some real tweaking of map and server settings. Its possible, but not something that is on the menu
Here are some images from a game called Massive



And if you are still wondering about AIs building Castles...

And if that one didnt scare you then maybe THIS one will. I will attach this so you have to click on the red "attachment" link at the top of the message to see this one. Not everyone will want to see this game screen. This is from my Armageddon game. What was really fun was running this on automatic quick-hosting all night to see if it would crash the server.

Looks like Ermor is on top of the list
Some testing could be done to discover for certain, but I'd bet ERMOR is still the most nasty of the computer opponents.


Also... just my opinion, but different ages for each nation should have a slightly different flag as well. Even something small like a stripe added would really help.

Rather massive games you got there.

And I agree with NT Jedi.

That was done few versions ago. Some differences have been added. The Agartha flags have nothing on top, as an example, even though you've seen the finished flags on Boron's game.

Marverni is EA only. I'm not sure if there are plans for other eras, but I don't remember hearing about it. It's celts. I'll post something tomorrow.

EA Marverni corresponds to MA and LA Marignon, IIRC

They look like Gauls, in fact they *are* Gauls ! Hairy warriors, druids ...
But sadly they have absolutely no national summons

Ermor is the best nation, if you know how to play it effectively.
