Should've said "firsssst"

​@@Arthurschkilterrible, love it

We are a special bunch!

So twiceborn is a 10 gem base spell, but it changes with every size point deviation from 3 by 3 gems, so a size 2 unit would cost 7 gems, a size 4 would cost 13 etc. Here I think it's basing it off the humanoid size of the crow clan as twiceborn can't work with animals, only humanoid now, so at the end of the day it is right!

@@ChazzyBurger It says it increases. It may also decrease with smaller size but the description does not say that afaics

I know just desecrating monuments, what a jerk!

That would be really good actually, great suggestion! You could look for it in every individual unit in the logs but that would take a while.

@@ChazzyBurger Indeed and it definitely matters. There's a huge difference between a battle that didn't kill any and one that 'only' killed them all 5 times each.

Yeah I agree, it's usually better to go farther back, with how I planned this I wanted to get inside as fast as possible to attempt to nullify their ranged advantage. With how gate guards work now as well, the defending force usually gets gummed up around the gate, that and the pathing sends them into their own walls which isn't the best! The bears weren't the best tactical choice, that much I agree on, but I wanted the archers to fire on something that wasn't the nidbathed or the blenders, and given they only cost gems they were the sacrificial lamb, or bear, in this case!

Thanks a lot, glad you enjoyed it!

Of course I can! The lizard guys are a little samey, you're concentrating more on them than other races just due to their inherent fightiness, but I can do an Amevia play through in the future!

The number one tip the Garthimi don't want you to know!

Thanks a lot, glad you enjoyed it!

After you mentioned this tested it again without mods, it does seem like twiceborning and immortal units now drop the globals, which isn't what I saw before at all! Wonder if it was a mod interaction causing it. Interestingly, if you simulacrum a unit after casting a global, and the simulacrum dies, the global remains up, so I'm wondering if the twiceborning and immortals dispelling the global is a bug, would be an interesting one to ask the developers!

@@ChazzyBurger I think this makes sense and is intentional, because the Simacularim isn't the original caster it is a copy, and to twiceborn or reform as an immortal you have to die. It was the way you said in 5.

Yeah exactly, fatigue plays are a good tactic for you to use, especially if you start throwing in relief for your own troops on top to give you the fatigue advantage! Another good tactic is to use immobilising spells, things like earth meld/maws of the earth or wild growth to hold the enemy in place to make them harder to hit!

Not a problem, that's what the quick tips were meant for! Glad you enjoyed it!

He rocked the inans world that's for sure!

Yep! All thanks to the -1 forging for immobiles, though they do possess a human to help them with the actual forging. I suppose old Bone meal finds it beneath him!

Probably should've mentioned that as well, I tried to keep this as generic as possible to keep the time down, but that is probably something I should've mentioned! I'll pop you up the top so others can see!

Glad you liked them! I've still got a couple of topics to cover, just trying to find the time to get the scripts down!

In Dominions 6, the shortcut in the research screen to only view global enchantment rituals is "o". You can view most context-sensitive shortcuts by pressing "?".

@oceanofstars beat me to the punch! You can also find things like boosters in the forging screen by pressing "o" as well!

@@ChazzyBurger thanks guys

It's probably for three major reasons. Before Thrones were a thing (Dom 3) the main victory method was Conquer All which took a REALLY long time. Second reason would be that they are neat gem generator sites and draw attention to the map in neat ways (not always good in default maps). They also give the occasional sacred buff which is nice.

Of course, I'll add it to the list! The main reason is as @vagrant2863 said, they do cut down on the time of games, especially in multiplayer. It also gives some fun comeback mechanics through things like throne rushes that lets weaker nations win the game!

You could certainly try them with scales, and out of the three ages EA is the one to go for, as you say their competition is probably the least equipped, though you are fighting against more mythical units like more giants etc. If you went a scales build you would really want to play to your strengths, go heavy into slingers with hail of burning embers or serpent fang arrows, though the embers would be the way to go as serpent fangs rely on damage to get the poison through. With your increased economy you can focus more on getting your forts up and mass turkeys for relatively cheap communions to follow your armies, getting buffs like barkskin off on them to improve their protection will help a lot. You probably as well want to get strength buffs through your blood as you don't have easy earth access as they'll help your slingers a lot. With a minor bless you can focus more on your Eagle warriors to help you expand as well, you'll take attrition on them but they are a major help in your initial expansion. The main idea behind a hellbless is to try and take a neighbours cap anyway to supplement your income, if you can't do that you're a little bit screwed, which this scales build can help you with. Let me know how you get on in your tests!
