Of course. They're very useful for early expansion and dominion spreading after all. Plus Ur has recruitable H3 commanders, so I honestly don't care too much about who my prophet is.

Well, getting one of your H3 as a prophet get him to h4, and the good spells only available that way :-°

But the smite/sermon of courage is useful while expanding. And you can always suicide your prophet later.

Pretty much this. The extra firepower from smite is incredibly useful and helps keep your first expansion party together for longer.

Each Smite is worth one possible rout! I've had lots of difficult indie fights won by a miraculous (huh, huh, how can you deal with that pun) smites panicking the enemy on the first or second turns.

PS. I hope everyone is happy with their start and distance to the nearest throne(s).

Me miserable! which way shall I fly
Infinite wrath, and infinite despair?
Which way I fly is Hell; myself am Hell;
And, in the lowest deep, a lower deep
Still threatening to devour me opens wide,
To which the Hell I suffer seems a Heaven.

There's one right next to me, and someone else's domain right next to that. Fortunately, I am

God of This World and Commander of Truth sound like high dominion titles. I'm just guessing though.

I find it saddening how the instant I take over a province it immediately floods and costs me gold.  :(

FFS, I always forget them... oh well, we'll say there were no amphibians, so that won't be a problem... :/

Anyway, slow begining, for me, I think... :(


[EDIT] By the way, could we put the turn timer to 28 hours instead of 24 ?
It's mostly because if I play early an evening and can't be home that early the next, I may miss a turn. I don't think that will happen, but it gives a little margin, even if staying on the "at least 1 turn per day" rythm :)
PS : I'll play my turn in 5 hours, guys.

Some adventures of us have plundered the lair of a hideous troll. Their leader has been hanged and all unlawfully acquired goods have been confiscated. (+1073 Gold, Enchanted Pike gained)

Why, now's the perfect time to introduce your pretender (if you so desire), since soon there'll be more diplomacy than preparation. Were you friends with the previous master of the universe, were you his enemy? Do you claim inheritance through blood relation? You've been challenged by Darkwing to prove yourself worthy of being the pantokrator, and then there's that terrifying fountain with the red lady. What would a god like that do to gain power?
