Thanks. When you do pretender design please do consider Dragon of the East and Celestial Dragon even though not classic SC pathing. Both get bonus path/gem/Underwater item and their alternative forms stack with other units for buffing - for example a Shuten and a cat. The East/nature has a misleading alternate form that has extra hp/attack and whereas the celestial/air one opens up ideal path for archery nation. Both dragons synergise with the main mage - East for unaging and far caster, celestial for precision/SR/far caster. Both prefer heat to cold for cold blood summons either poison or flying/air. Can still get P2 and M1 on scales without tanking others. Air one can just ignore Tengu and go with things that have their own protection.

It would be kind of cool if the bandits got to fallow their flavour text where they take the armor of defeated foes. So you fight Ulm for example and a percent take helmets and heavy armour from the fallen.

TheFalseGod and DarkSideCookies have active channels. I know a few other KZbinrs, like Zan, just got busy IRL, but hope to be back when they have time again. The other detail to mention is that this sort of playthrough has some serious lag; the Shinuyama game being cast here started in early May, about 6 months ago.
@jamaro2006Күн бұрын
In addition to the natural delay, there was a pause in playing new games in Dom5 while waiting for 6, and another delay while waiting for bugs to be fixed and mods to be ported over (many of which are still not done being ported almost a year later). I know for me and probably many other people, Dom5 was something I was in the habit of playing but after several months of not playing it is a habit I slipped out of and never started up again for 6, as I found other things to fill my time playing.

Regarding the 5 gem item that makes raiding parties shine. I found the new glamour item, mirror of trapped images, works well. Loads of warrior illusions for 5 gems. Issue being you need the research to summon glamour mages to make them, and then construct them.

After recording, I did have the thought that you could take an inspirational leadership bless and use Bakemono Shamans to lead your stealthy raiders; definitely more expensive to use a 115 gold mage instead of a 60 gold commander, but +3 morale would greatly change how effective Bakemono-Sho raiding parties perform.
@lowlife4103Күн бұрын
Morale does seem to be their biggest weakness as raiders. Adding a 2 CP mage can be an expensive change to your raiding party though, depending on your sources of production. I've found success with quantity in 6 so far. Bring 500 bakemono in 10 groups and frequently double or triple them up to take on higher priority provinces.

Hey Lucid, very good to see you back! One thing you didn't mention, is that a Kitsune with an air random can easily cast waling winds! Also the Mujina is a badger not a racoon. (Racoon would make no sense as they don't have those in Asia)
@DemonsthenesDominions2 күн бұрын
Yeah I'd intended to mention that; it's only a 25% chance to get that random, so you're talking about 100N on average to roll one, and if you just wanted a Wailing Winds caster, you might want to just empower, but G3 mages are so valuable it's pretty plausible you'd cast a handful just for that path even without the Wailing Winds access.
@rovsea-3761Күн бұрын
The Tanuki is listed as a raccoon, or perhaps raccoon dog. Of course, they do have actual Tanukis in Japan, so that makes some sense. Edit: Like the Kitsune, the Tanuki also got glamour access, and is actually much better able to reach the G/E booster to help get the glamour access to the "Now I can cast Legion's Demise muahaha" level.

It's alive! Great work guys Stonetroll kicked my but in False Pretenders with 150ish archers and Flaming Arrows showing up unexpectedly on Yomi. Shinu has an even easier time putting that together without the income malus I've killed mages who didn't have bodyguards with Noppera-bo before. I don't think it's something you want to go overboard with, but having 2-3 maybe kill an important commander in an enemy army can be a good surprise and can force a response of moving troops off the front line into bodyguard mode. I like the Tengu for surprise shock troops due to their map move, and they can be really useful for storming forts in a way Draconians might not be able to since enemies might be putting up Storm to block arrows from your archers. They'll probably die because you won't get Caelum numbers of them, but that can definitely be a price worth paying.
@DemonsthenesDominions2 күн бұрын
Yeah Tengu are really fragile without buffs, but their base melee stats are really high and the nation can buff them really well for such fort storming scenarios... So it might be possible to keep them alive with the right script.
