Anybody got any ideas for God Power Combos(ex: enemy is building wonder, you're Greek and cast Ceasefire, fly a Pegeus in and when the power ends cast Earthquake right over the wonder! Big damage!)
Anyone?

I think you can use earthquake during ceasefire, tornado too.
There are lots of threads about this topic. Do a search by subject at the bottom.

You can cast earthquake DURING cf i think. I had a possy walk his whole army past my Titan defenses during cf cause I forgot to wall in. Killed him pretty fast after though..
walking woods+fimbulwinter is a favorite of mine
in general, try using a "blanket" gp (to prevent enemy gps), pref one that has a use in itself, eg anc+ECL, frost+FIMBULWINTER while attacking tcs.. ceasefire+underworld passage for a surprise forward build in the enemy base, etc..
In reality though you dont have that many combos to choose from, some gps have no good combos(nidhogg, plenty), and most other combos are pretty obvious.

You can pretty much make a combo of vision and any gp set gets. However my favorite combo is flaming weapons/fimbulwinter. You win the battle and stop them from getting the resources for reinforcements.

I like my custom made SECRET combo...
Frost+Forest Fire!!!
Frost doesn't effect FOrest Fire damage, so if the enemy army is near some woods, freeze them then cut them down immensely with the Forest Fire. You should have time to take out any forward bases (Forest Fire could help with that) and then his troops will be wounded.

I thought so. I've been trying to find the best way to use frost+FF since I heard about that combo (there aren't many usefull Norse GP's you can get outside of team play). It can be pretty hard to lock them into the trees where you can use frost+FF with any consistency. But THAT inspired though... If planned properly, you could take down their entire army, a full eco operation AND either half their home base or all/most of a forward base.
Picture this: Your up against some damnable turtling eggy. They've built up heavily around a concentration of gold pits (naw, that'll never happen!!). You take in your army to draw them into the fight. Draw them up near the gold diggers and their midgol(s). As soon as they get there, Frost them and wait a bit for some of the re-inforcements to arrive. As soon as they've got some in there, hit Gaia forest and FF. Fry the army, half the reinforcements and most of the buildings to boot. Now THAT'S GG!!!
Must now go find a Gaia to play opposite my Thor and Odin...
