Thanks for all of your hard work putting together your content. After watching just this first installment, I tried Swarmlings for the first time. No win, but it was a relief to know how to try to win with them.
Really interesting start to this UG for an unusual faction. And although I've never played them that way, you make it look so obvious. Can't wait to try it out and really looking forward to part 2 :)
Could you elaborate on dwarves as a cult faction? I know they’ll often be picked if there are early earth cult bonuses (similar to how witches become more attractive into early air bonuses) but I’ve never thought of them as belonging to the same category as Auren, Cultists, CM, or Swarmlings. If anything I usually think of darklings as the 5th cult faction.
It's simply that they do not need to advance shipping, letting them send more priest to the cult track. They are not as heavy on cult as they other 3, but do have a stronger presence than your average faction for sure.
haha well not only is he a very good players, but there will be settings where network swarmlings will be the way to go, and also there will be games where swarmlings will win even if they take the optimal strategy. network swarmlings is certainly not an awful strategy, but I think most of the time it's inferior to 7 structures swarmlings
Loved the introduction!

This is great. I had no idea that there was this swarming strategy - just assumed the old strategy. The name Swarmlings is extremely misleading.
It's UG time baby!
Wow, next UG, keep them coming, thanks!
These guide videos are awsome keep going.
