Strategy?

Is it better to go all the way with one god, or mix it up a bit? I don't have the game yet but when I do I want to be prepared

First time through just go with the god who's got the plan/style you like best - you'll likely end up with mostly one god, but with a few diversions.

Second time through, make a custom book you think'll be fun for MP, trying to do as many missions as possible that you haven't done before.

The above is, of course, IMHO.

So the different gods and missions you take the more diverse your monsters and spells will be?

Sort of. Each god actually gets a pretty diverse bunch to begin with, and it is possible to end up getting nothing but foot troops (other than your first level dudes) if you mix gods around...

But, on the whole, yes - mix and match and you get some hoopy combinations.

My first game I went mostly James, but with a couple of Persy levels. James' tough units and Persy healing abilities... Mmmmmmm.

Now it's my second go, and I'm trying to get the fun spells - Charnel, James, and Strat.
