Suddenly a troll appeared in the laboratory!
|
Does it heal undead, or just living units? |

Newer player here- I'm attempting to learn middle age ermor(which seems to be LA ermor in dom 3?). I don't need a point by point breakdown, but since they're so unique, a few questions- I'd like to do an awake battle pretender, possibly on the prince of death(flying seems fun), but i'm not sure how to do it or if i even should given how powerful their dominion is. Further, scales? I'm having a hard time figuring out what i should be doing with them especially given their unique condition. Finally- starting turns? Normally I'd just conscript up and go on out, but again they've got me a little stifled. Should i be using my starting scout to summon something turn one(or my pretender?) or just let the freespawn roll in and go from there? It doesn't help that i'm having a hard time finding a basic overview of their units since you can't view them in the normal recruit screen(where you can look over stats and purpose a little better). What should I be doing with my gold(just bid on a merc group or hoard up for a quick fort?) If i missed somewhere where this is all answered(or just a decent ermor guide) i'd gladly just read that instead. |

I play them like this: All bad scales, with the exception of Luck and sometimes Magic. Awake Death pretender is an must have, obviously. With the huge amount of points from the bad scales buy magic for spells you want to cast (Burden of Time, Utterdark, etc.) |

Generally with ashen empire you want an awake pretender that can expand(their troops are a bit unreliable and get killed easily by human players if not at critical mass or backed up by mages), has high death(at least 5) and gets you some access to other paths. I like the prince of death because of its expansion ability, but the ghost king is also an option if you're more focused on breaking into other magic paths. The lich and the titan of war and wisdom might be good as well, haven't tested them though. You also want dom 10, both for the awe on your pretender as well as more undead and as everyone is going to attack you on sight anyway you might as well spread your toxic dominion fast and make things harder for them. |

The titan of war and wisdom kill indy pretty easily, with both fear, awe, a shield, and high defence. Of course, she don't fly, but you can deal with that. |

So my disciple in one game got pretty beat up and racked up some afflictions. He's a dragon with an N9 bless so he has regeneration and since he's always blessed, it seems inherent. Can he heal his afflictions then? |

Oh I gotcha. Regneration REDUCES the chance of getting affliction, not cure it. Well good thing the guy always has an earth bless, so I guess it makes chest wound somewhat more bearable. <_< |

For the curious, the titans who guard lvl 3 throne seem perfectly charmable. (well, it was tested with a modded master enslave without MR check, but in real game you still have to pass over the 18 mr) |

My first MP game in Dominions 3 was with Patala(no I'm not a masochist, why do you ask?). I've been wanting to try them out again, this time in Dom4. How are they different now? I know the naga soldiers have new ranged attacks and the unarmored ones are recruitable in caves - are they viable now? I also want to break into blood for Lanka's summons, but how much does chaos power affect their viability? Is a Turmoil/Sloth/Luck/Magic based bless strategy based on nagas and summons viable, or should I just go for a scales or SC pretender? Even if I did go for scales, all those sacred units and mages just beg for at least a minor bless, like E4-6 or something at least. |

Maerlande find the unarmored one very viable, because of how many attack they have. Not sure about the blood summon, but they look useable on paper. In order 3 Dakini still have most of what make them interesting for example. E4 seem the lesser bless to go for. |

Sooo I'm new and I have a question. If one was playing Sceleria and had a ghost king Pretender plus an army of vestals (e.g. all ethereal units) can they ignore fortifications for sieges? The load screens mention ethereal units can pass through trees and walls so I'm curious. |

You still must break the fortress to be able to storm it, but during the castle storming you will ignore the wall and not be bottlenecked at the breach. |
