Playing as the Sheaim, I'm often uncertain of how I should build Planar Gates and the buildings associated with them. Many of the buildings (Hippodrome, Weapon Smith) are pretty off the Sheaim's magical research path, and I'm unsure of how much time I should spent researching and building them.
I'm also a bit uncertain of how, exactly, the Planar Gate mechanic works. It says in the wiki that each Planar Gate allows you to have more units summoned, and you can at most have N units of each type summoned. But I seem to recall Kael saying that constructing extra non-Gate buildings has no effect on the amount of units you can summon, only their types. That was a long ago, though, so I'm not sure of how things are now.
Any seasoned Sheaimists around here?
