The latter in particular is useful, as all races are alright with Temperate climate, which thusly allows me to get decent terrain-related happiness for my cities anywhere except underground.Īll in all, my favorite setup so far. Draconians are alright with Tropical climates, so Domain of the Sun would be optional.Īnd finally Creation Adept, as it provides a solid healing spell and Clenase The Land(Changes a decent chunk of hexes into Temperate terrain). It also provides Domain of the Sun(Makes City like Tropical/Volcanic) plus Tropical Empire(Spreads Tropical climate). The summons in particular feels good to have as it gives me something to spend my surplus mana on! Can't forget the racial Fast Healing skill, it makes sure my guys are always fighting all the time!įire Master is good for my Warlord, as it provides several things: A decent damaging combat spell(Fire Ball), a Tier 2 Summon(Hellhound), a Tier 3 Summon(Fire Elemental), and a battlewide damaging spell(Hellfire) which my own units are fairly resistant towards(As they are Draconians). Also helps that the Flyer is a pretty solid Tier 3 Infantry, all things considered. Elders are my #1 favorite Support unit in the entire game, and their Dragon Ancestry support ability is my favorite thing since sliced bread.

The overall emphasis on solid(if specialized) units is also sweet to me, though while magic is not the strong suite of the Warlord, Fire Master and Creation Adept certainly helps there! Can't forget that the research that gives +15HP also apply to your Heroes, and I am mostly a singleplayer guy with a fancy for RPGs those extra HP means my heroes are less likely to die and also give me more points to spend elsewhere!ĭraconian because they not only were my favorite race in AoW:SM, but also because I just like their racial units! Or some of them anyways! Flamers are the most 'unique' Tier 1 Archers, in that they provide area damage. Warlord because I like Monster Hunters and Phalanx, and Mounted Archer is swell if I find an Elf City. Warlord/Draconian/Master Fire+Creation AdeptĪs I play without city founding I do not need Expander, and while Explorer is nice if for nothing more than my precious Monster Hunters it is not nice enough to warrant a slot.
