Are you using a script? You seem a bit mumbly quiet and the videos go on for a long time. Doesn't have to be like line for line word for word but plan out what you're going to go over and have a list of points or w/e you're going to go through, it helps a lot. Pretend it's like giving a presentation.

It doesn't take that many Aka-Oni (like 12-15 for most, 20 can handle all but he worst) to wipe indies so long as Order isn't leaking into the province.

The Cold attack seems better than the throw flames (?), and otherwise they're exactly the same except 5g cheaper.

The high end oni are twice as costly, but not even close to twice as good. Maybe if they were sacred it would be worth it, but even then you are probably still better taking an expander. Just eat up all the provinces, build a bunch of castles and bum rush out enough research to hide behind 1 Million Skeletons + relief and rigor mortis.

don't forget oni have 2 forms, so you're geting more bang for your buck. expander + expansion oni armies will net you a lot of provinces as long as you didn't get ufcked in start position

Larger oni are mainly not worth it. They have high strength but low prec so their javelins aren't that good, and the poison attack on the black ones whose name I forget (Kuro-Oni?) is pretty mediocre.

Dai Oni are loving ridiculously good mages and if you can mass them and give them a little bit of kit they are just about unstoppable. One of my new favorite units in the game. e: Unrelated: I don't know who is in charge of syncing the game listings on brainwrinkle to the actual servers, but brainwrinkle is still looking at Monkee's old server for the game Mo Money Mo Problems and it needs to be looking at the new server, projectptah.com 50011.

I find it weird that Yomi's description talks about its mages having low research, which is very misleading if you don't actually check it out. Like they have pretty cheap 11rp mages and even 15rp non str mages, plus access to every necessary path and sufficient strength for all the research boosters other than Blood, and Dwarven Hammers to knock them out for cheap.

Yeah, during my last game as Yomi I had a research at 7 by turn 13 (and 26 provinces). It was pretty ridiculous and I probably would have won that game had I not been burning out during it.

I had pretty ridiculous luck in my yomi game. t3/l3 rocks. If I wasn't so bad still I'd probably have won that game or madea better run in the end game. Notable luck things: Literally thousands of gold every few turns without fail Gems out the rear end, I seriously had 300+ of every gem from luck events during that game 2 forts from luck, maybe more (I think these were luck events anyway...) the B2 hero around turns 20-30 ( I think) Ring of Sorcery on turn 8ish God only knows what the gently caress else I got, it was pretty insane and has changed my outlook on the luck thing, I'm probably never taking misfortune again except for some sort of dub/tribless gimmick *edit* Decrepus posted:I have taken Luck 3 in every game I ever played after that one. Lol I'm sure I'll never have as good of luck as I did in the yomi game and have likely thrown out my 1 chance to win a dom game.

The larger oni are decent if its late game and you just gold a bunch of gold from random events and you have alot of army buffs researched. Fog Warriors + army of lead + mass regeneration and then they are good.

Is the actual formula for calling your pretender back from being killed, known? Like, I get there's a random factor, but do we have some clue as to how many turns worth of priest level is needed? I'm uh, I'm... asking for a friend. I definitely did not get my "immortal" pretender killed by an AI army in enemy dominion due to sucking up a blood vengeance retaliation while casting offensive spells and only having 3 hit points.

It's 50 priest-turns, +/- DRN. So 5 h2s call faster than 9 h1s.
