I think ES really screw up this thing.
We are all thinking about 1v1 games, outbalanced this and that. But it is not the case just the concept is wrong.
First of all let us see Isis' monument protection. Seems to be quite a nice bonus and actualy it is a nice bonus. But then the way it is granted a bit sily.
First of all it should be a research which cost res. After all it blocks GPs for *free*. And in my opinion all eggys should be able to research it. I would put the research available in heroic but their range should be extended.
I feel pretty much unbalanced (EDIT: incorrect word, one sided) the Titan situation. I have never lost to a norse titan. Guess why: they have never been able to build one. When they could the game was anyway a gg. So stupid that they cannot build it with their villagers (I mean hell! How to protect it???? Or how to protect your villagers when you build the gate?)
Ok: coming back to the monument protection. There is one additional thing necessary: either ALL gates should have a protection range OR Isis (or eggys) should loose it while building the gate.
It is very annoying in 2v2, 3v3 games (where the game easily goes until Mythic/Titan) that the weakest but untouchable noob Isis player, who is covered by his mates and by the terrain (for ie: watering hole) builds the titan and sends his roc to the other's gate to meteor shower it.
Actualy this happened to me many times and there is nothing you can do against it. Isis will build his titan always while you loose yours most probably.
Personaly I prefer the idea to have the gates protected from GPs. Double edged weapon...
OR it would be even better to prevent god powers from ALL players including the one who has the protection. That would bring real fun to the game and more strategy to the use of the monuments. Or: it should block at least your teammates GPs (so if somehow I reach the gate with a large troop they dont get cursed and lightning stormed).
My computer beats me in chess. But I am much better in kick-box...

I know, I know. It sounds as a complaint. But it is not! I feel the game pretty playable right now and very much balanced. Just these kind of modification would bring some colors to the real multi games. Would make the game less one sided.
