Master of Magic - Implode's Multiplayer Edition

I don't think SOM is a strategy. I mean a way or another, you'll need a good reasearch, a good skill and plenty of mana. Anyway, you'll need to increase your manas production. So it's not a big issue until at least SOM appear in your research list. Unless you play at easy or normal, you should end u...

Not quite everyone else :wink: . I realy think for exemple that darves with their gold bonus, production bonus and hammerhands are combative, if not completly better. So don't mess with my precioussss dwarves. I realy think that boost should come from special abilities that fit with the mentality of...

I'm pretty sure magic spirits can fail to meld if there is already one inside...

Yep, you can. Of course, you have to buy it since it take too much time to build it with the last farmer..

I personally feel that the paladins are something we definitely need to fix somehow. As of right now, they are simply too good of a unique. I'm not saying we should nerf them to kingdom come, but c'mon here, something here has to give. Maybe instead of the nifty +50 magical resistance, they could j...

If I have to make a homemade rule, I would said their strenght is egal to the square of their standard mana cost or production cost (just in case) (900:6400 or 14,06%) at least it should make the Gardian spirit useful in regard to their cost (30:80) but since we know that, in fact, you will succeed ...

Ranged units should do a great job. But low level ranged units are not that good, they need to have a good experience if you want them to be efficient. Also magic weapons are useful for this (alchemist guild or Alchemy). Of course, races that have specialised ranged troops are best. (long bowmen,ran...

Warlocks are best used in groups of 3+, because then practically nothing can withstand the potential barrage of doom bolts. Until a single Paladin crush them all for breakfast. :D There was that qualifier of "practically nothing". The fact is, I really LOVE those warlocks and the doom bol...

The third magic spirit is always succesful when i play (i get mad and do the save&load trick :D ).
But it might be around 15% chance. Something like that...

My build order is granary, sawmill, forest guild, shrine, marketplace, farmers market. Really ? the farmer market so far ? if you build in this order : granary, marketplace, farmers market, sawmill, shrine, forest guild. You might end those building with one more population (out of 7 it's pretty go...

In fact, I might replace a few normal structures with structures that make sense for a more biologically (rather than culturally) driven race like the bee guys might be. Instead of the granary, anything based on bees might have a honey repository lol. Graphicaly it would be cool, but for the game p...

Sounds good. But why a race with only flying troops would bother about building roads or crushing walls ?
Unless they are a myran race ?

My personal choice would be a pathfinding + scouting unit

Reading about bee like race gave me some ideas for some buildings that could break the traditionnal and somewhat very linear path of buildings. One of them might make klackons a decent race : Forum Prod. cost: 250 Preriquisite : builder's hall Maintenance : 3 Golds Effects : -3.5 unrest (rounded as ...

In fact, I've never understood why the different AIs in MoM fight each other on 'impossible'. They should be ganging up and whiping me from the map as fast as they possibly can. No ! It's worst then cheating ! It's not playing well. Every AI should "play" in a way that increase their own ...
