What is your favorite trait in FfH2?

I love them all equally, especially when you don't have them in the next game...

I vote for Spiritual though since I hate Anarchy.

My favourite trait is probably Arcane. I like spellcasters, but I don't like waiting forever for them to level up.
Summoner is another good one, especially since it allows your summoned creatures to level and gain promotions before they disappear. It also allows my Summoners to have 1 creature defending them and two on the offense, making them able to travel in enemy lands unescorted in relative safety.

Spiritual.

Especially for this mod because civic changing happens very often and you made the anarchy longer then in vanilla (i think).

I never play FFH without a spiritual leader because of this.

I like financial because it is so easily abusable. ;)

The extra cash from Raiders is very nice, long term flow of deficit research spending, and means I don't necessarily have to prioritize mining for the markets, which have the reasearch penalty until you can also build the elder council, so overall Raiding for a strong start is awesome. Paired with a really early fast and strong UU. Pillage the world is my motto, raze a few cities here and there for even bigger profits.

Definitely spiritual. Anarchy is a pain, I prefer to change civics whenever I need to.

Spiritual and Creative. Spiritual because there are soo many civics, and it is good to switch religions too- I am talking about dwarven mining here.

Creative- because you don't have to use wastefull obelixes.

Last Word- oh and raiding is good for running deficit budget

Hmm, where is agnostic? That's def. my favorite gameplay-wise.

But if I have to pick a positive one, um well arcane or financial are my favorites.

I like having big empires all over the world. Continents is my favourite map, and conquering cities everywhere is my motto, thats why i like Organized, it makes life cheaper and allow for quickly courthouses. Too bad Financial is so much better.. Organized should have more 50% cheaper buildings IMO!

Spiritual is the definite winner. Not only does make anarchy someone else's problem but also gives the disciples extra move point (and that includes Mardero and Sphener, making them even more powerful). Organized would take second place, since it's much more useful than in vanilla (not like it was useless in vanilla, it's just much more powerful here).

On the other hand, Industrious seems to be practically useless, since I rarely concentrate on wonders because there are so many buildings and units to make. Financial, on the other hand, is way too strong, making the AI with this trait have at least several more techs than other civs (including me). It's just as Brancaleone mentioned, financial is much more better than other traits - but instead of powering up other traits I would try to tone it down... For example making it require 3 commerce on a field instead of 4 for the extra one (3 is way too common on normal fields and if you cottage spam you'll have lots of extra commerce anyway).

Cheers

Spiritual is my favorite. Being able to change civics without penalty can be a gamewinner.

Creative
It gives new cities a substantial development bonus

Most of all I like the diversity. Would be bad if everything were spiritual. It must fit to the Leaderpersonality according to design.

Btw Kael hope it's ok if we steal a couple of traits here, yes?

Ploep, you have free reign to anything you'd like. I want to see WHFB come out as much as anyone! :D

I'm surprised that Industrious is this low. I mean, FfH has some considerably stronger wonders than vanilla...

Spiritual is nice, but I don't usually change civics all *that* often. Even though there are more of them than before.

I'd vote for Sprawling :D
