The Wheel has turned once again.Divine Emperor editionDominions is a fantasy turn-based war game created by two dudes. One of them is a teacher.The game combines a simple presentation with an extremely wide array of strategic options, including over 3400 units, 1100 spells and 400 magic items. Turns are resolved simultaneously, with players planning battles rather than directly controlling them. It has simplistic graphics but is easily moddable and extremely deep.Basically, it's an autist’s wet dream of a war game.>Our pastebin (extremely outdated)https://pastebin.com/wjbSA98Y (embed) (embed) (embed)>Steamgrouphttps://steamcommunity.com/groups/vanheimageofvidya>Multiplayer guide>Blitzserver (game hosting service)https://blitzserver.net(Dom 6)https://beta.blitzserver.net/games>Llamaserver:https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1212948582>Documentationhttps://illwinter.com/dom6/docs.html>Tools>Mod inspectorhttps://larzm42.github.io/dom6inspector/>Wikihttps://illwiki.com/>Pretender calculatorhttps://caleb-distributive.github.io/pretenders-dom6/>Debug mod (still dom5)https://www.dropbox.com/s/oo492x2cs8vag34/debug509.zip?dl=0>Communion fatigue calculator (still dom5)https://instacalc.com/53495>Automatically prevent starts in all provinces with less than X connections (still dom5)https://nixx.is-fantabulo.us/dom5ranmapnos/>How do I change the fonts?Replace guifont.ttf, guifont_fancy.ttf and guifont_texty.ttf in the game's 'data' folder (C:\Steam\steamapps\common\Dominions6\data)>Fan arthttps://thronebooru.booru.orgPrevious Pantokrator>>494650342

I am pretty much dead. I failspanded hard and I had a lot of lizards and barbs on my side.Good map tho, I had trouble breaking knights. This or the next one might be my last turns.

ok maybe i should have brought more mages
>>495010827Jesus fucking Christ. How?
>>495010827Did you notice the 8 black bows on target 'large monster'? I wanted to see if they could hit the god before he cast phoenix pyre (tho sloops gives recup so this is stronger in vanilla -- I think feebleminded is slow to heal regardless tho).I'm happy to have seen a big fight even if mage commitment levels weren't equal (but it was closer to me so it isn't shocking I could bring more).
>>495010827Howd only 15 bakemonos die
>>495011191Ghosts die to flaming arrows. Bakemono archers are strong bows (and good swords, so them firing bows is really just more time to buff them, or so I hear).In this case it was flaming arrows + big mages vs mostly ghosts.I coerced Therodos into taking a big fight, otherwise those ghosts prob split up and raid me down.
>>495011191>>495011410yeah its a bit ridiculous

!NEW BLOOD_SWEAT_AND_TEARS!
Lanka's starting stack can't even expand Saturday against 50 mostly militias. I've died twice in a row to stacks like this in single player testing.
>play Machaka>use larger bless
>>495040630>play caelum>use unaging bless
How does one wield super combatants?Noob take but am I correct in that they are tactically significant but strategically insignificant?Tactically, they are a powerful force of destruction by themselves.Strategically, they can't secure or at least not reliably secure strategic objectives by themselves.Another noob take; in my experience results from using SCs differ wildly, I can't precisely gauge what they can beat and what they can't beat. Lack of experience perhaps. It's a bit of a gamble in whether they will wipe an army or be wiped. Especially so when the SC isn't mindless and might rout, then it's another gamble whether he will retreat successfully or not.Correct me if I'm wrong, please.
>>495046464Wiping enemy stacks isn't strategically significant enough for you?
>>495048868thats tactical. if you put the sc to hold on to a throne its vulnurable to countermeasures because the opponent will predict that it stays there.throwing it at armies is different.
>>495049192Anon, I...
>>495049192If you kill all their armies, what do they put in their sleevies?
>>495046464idk how you are delineated strategic vs tactical. SCs can be used to control space on the map, lock down enemy forts, take thrones, blowup armies, and so on. If your SC storms a fort in your army's stead and defeats your enemy, it's hard not to see that as a strategic win. Your army is free to move on to the next fort without taking losses, or spending the turn storming the fort itself.
>>495046464>Noob takeanon there is a difference between being a noob and being a fucking retard
>>495040168Lanka's expo is famously difficult. You can overcome it by taking a monster or take a big bless AND have good scripting. I seem to recall that its easier in sloops

>>495086630niggas be like >>495085379 IM BANNING UBAR CORRUPTION TOO STRONG but then cry about nerfs to corruptionfrfr
>game looks and plays like a shitty mobile game>also costs 50 $
>>495086716Sloop's also makes shaytan cost 3cmd points each, which is actually way more of a nerf than the morale thing is.
>>495087096oh I was wondering wtf that guy was talking about cause I was only able to build 1 per turn. I think gold is still the limiting factor not commander points, but that's still a big deal if they're huge
>>495087472Fundamentally making shaytan is gonna be ubar's first priority, they're usually rich as fuck but even if they're down to 600 gold making another shay is almost always the best move. Going from 2 to 3 points means Ubar gets 33% fewer shaytans across the course of the game. That's huge.
>>495088121I think ifrit sultans are pretty good though.
>>495088967One or two are okay for your big spells but they're kind of a trap option.
>New game starts.> 2 of my starting provinces are thrones.Welp, I might get lucky or I might just not be able to do anything this game.
>>495089301>not bringing an awake or a big bless so you can expand no matter what and cap ring thrones are simply free throne points, temple checks and gemsYWNBAP (you will never be a pankoman)
Is there any way to beat an MA ermor with BV 1v1 before turn 50?
>>495089174they're super combatants
>>495063294>>495070487>>495086630dude the bro takes his sloop hate seriously you gotta give him that
>>495086818woahif you add sloop's, it plays like a non shitty mobile game
>>495091056maggots on a regen chassis
SLOOPRe:boulderscan you not just add defense negates to the aoe effect? that would probably fix much of the issue
>>495086818PLEASE tell me which mobile game plays like Dominions please please
>>495091901When he isn't doing that he shills for anons to play over at SA with totally not his mod
>>495094525There was an anti-sloop JBBM shill around a year ago, has to be the same guy. I don't know why he tries. JBBM is full of dumb bullshit, it even changed black servant to shadow servant years before illfraud did in typical Something Troony fashion.
>>495092427isnt maggots just a single target? how does that help at all versus 100 lictors
>>495095569what if, in the warhammer mod, I change it to nigger servant?
>>495086818too poor for $50 for the best strategy game of all time? sad!
>>495091056Antimagic
>>495095774zero originality or witcall it Skulking Negro
>>495096323how does that help? they still kill any unit 1v1 and the sheer amount of checks for BV if youre doing Evos mean your mages will die regardless of MR
>>495096398Uncle TomField NiggerSpookmy votes
>>495095735A dozen N mages each casting Maggots once will nuke 3-4 lictors per turn, every turn starting around turn 3. More if you make them cast twicegive them some basic MR buffs and/or regen if they're big bois like Enkidu
>>495096458>How does trivializing the amount of BV reflects on every single unit in the fight help?idk nigga what do you think?
>>495096909BV is just to get a 1v1 and avoid nukes which it still accomplishes, doesnt seem to do much at all in my tests
>>495096458>they still kill any unit 1v1They honestly don't even win against a Guardian 1v1 without BV
>>495096876yeah you know what, that definitely seems worth it even if it only kills 1 since lictors DO just rape every unit that's like saving 5 units per cast
>>495096983Sounds like BV isnt the problem then
>>495097145There's also ravenous, but that's N3 instead of "literally any random tribal indie" and taxes your regeneration a lot more if you spam it 4-5 times
>>495097356i have access to nature and astral mages so i can get up to that easily
>>495099024If you're an Astral nation then just have one guy cast Northern Star and another guy cast Antimagic and have all your S1s spam the shit out of Solar Rays, it's an AoE 1 with 100 precision that does 14 AP damage to deader so an entire square of lictors gets deleted after 3 hitsS1s are cheap as fuck
>>495100119yeah im already casting northern star, you think that's better than body ethereal? lictors dont have magic weapons
>>495101767BV checks magic resist. He's saying to Northern Star into Antimagic so your troops stand better odds against BV procs. Body Ethereal is fine, but generally speaking you probably want to try and kill them before they get close enough to attack your mages in melee.
>>495102492yeah it's just a question to after i get MR up for BV if I want more defensive buffs to waste the enemy's time or all-in on evocations
How the fuck do I match Sceleria in the late game bros? I can't match the undead industrial complex.

>>495124752Arrows and earth meld counter elves (though not valkyries), as well as elemental evocations now that nobody takes omniresists anymore
>>495124752nothing really counters fear in melee, so anything that can kill them before they get to you. bait squads at the back if they attack rear maybe
>>495124945>nobody takes omniresists anymorewhy not? was it nerfed in 6?

>9 daktyls>not a single D1one of those games, huh
>Ghost ship armada>Or hidden in snowHMMMDECISIONS
>>495140081yeah blitzmin cast ghost ship armada to fuck me over completely and let agartha have a free win, hes already in reach of his 4th throne.
>>495140347Its too late.It was always too late.
>>495140081Ghost Ship Armada is funnier. Frozen in Snow is also cool. Can't wrong!Heck, maybe the underground has many lakes, so it'd impact Agartha as well!
HOLD THE LINEI'm taking one of agartha's forts next turn.
Nice pve game for me...
>>495141119Oh fug is it habbeding
>>495141119Level 3 thrones only and forever from now on! Increase indie difficulty as well!(I don't pay enough attention).
>>495141234the issue is no wraparound, thats the number one issue.dont know why blitzmin does these no wrap maps
Damnit. I waited one turn and I shouldn't have.>>495141395Illwinter fucks the throne gen anyway but I guess.
>>495141234GG. Next time I play with an obfuscate hellbless so I can have 1 SC on every throne to stop this happening.
what was dominions 1 like
>>495141436>Illwinter fucks the throne gen anyway but I guess.no man, it doesnt. the issue is with no wraparound there can be a corner on the map where theres a bunch of thrones around a player that other players have difficulty reaching.with full wraparound there are no corners, this issue is completely nonexistent.i know you slop fans like to hate on illwinter every chance you get for some reason but this aint it.
GGi was thoroughly kept in check by mister check keeper shinuyama (who couldnt even reach agartha if he wanted to because no wraparound settings)i dub shinuyama MVP of this game
>>495141436>I waited one turntoo busy casting that vitally important ghost ship armadajust bantz bro dont take it to heart ok but yeah that was the most mind-blowing strategic maneuver my eyes have ever beared witness to in my life
>>495141860Its fucking admiral torgrin's wild rideHow can I not?
What's a nation that does well keeping a low profile
>>495141919therodos for sure unless youre being kept in check by mr check keeper shinuyama (MVP of today's dailyblitz)
>>495135091shit i completely forgot and went out for a bit, my bad. i'll retry this meme next week when im around again
>>495141520Non wrap exacerbates the issue yes, but I just genned a map with the same settings that the blitz was; 7 thrones four to win and there's a cluster of four thrones within, (looks to be), about 4 provinces at most between them.Part of the issue is "can other players get there" but a lot of the problem is "how many thrones can you get in a small area".I'm counting the provinces, and all of agartha's thrones look to be within four provinces from his cap. The map gen decided to stick two of them underground, and two of them right next to the cave entrances above ground.
>>495116376Some immobiles cant even teleport my dude
>>495142539Yeah that's what I have noticed ever since dom 6 when we were forced to use the default map gen more it always clusters all the thrones together unless the map is really big
>>495141919Shinuyama here: no nation can keep a low profile. The Bakemono will come for you on the fields, the dark vision will come for you in the caves (if there is a cave entrance around), and the kappa will come for you underwater.Tho (serious) meme aside, you want to project power so you don't look weak, but you also don't want to be too scary. Some nations are considered very dangerous, but even then, you might be able to diplo your way into only fighting one person at a time.For example, I'm terrified of Therodos, so I had no qualms throwing myself into a (game losing) war very early. Next time I probably won't do that.Consider MA C'tis for the dominion that gives people disease. It might make them not want to attack you. Underwater nations are also (mostly) safe from land nations.Are you asking for a blitz? Say you want to chill and people will probably let you.
>>495142539>cluster of four thronesso? all players surround that cluster. its not in the corner somewhere and inaccessible. its literally surrounded by everyone. you might have to attack someone to reach it but you can reach it realistically in any case.non wrap doesnt "exacerbate" the issue, it creates it. with wraparound this issue does not exist at all.
>>495144825Conveniently I actually spawned as abysia right underneath those thrones (similar-ish to the agartha case, with a cave entrance right next to my cap that pops up right next to the thrones) so I could check what it looks like by just walking around with my expansion army.If someone wanted to, they could probably win a game with this spawn in like 10 turns flat since abysia can usually walk right through T2 thrones.Therodos could reach the above ground thrones, C'tis (I, to be clear), could reach one of them. But no amount of wrapping would have helped with the two thrones below ground. Realistically the only person who COULDN'T reach those thrones was shinu.
>>495145932bro... now show the ai spawns? or did you spawn in alone. everyone else is just as close because its full wraparound except for the underground perhaps depending on entrances.come on man its not that deep
>>495146969Ermor did spawn quite close to the eastern edge of the cluster - roughly as close as therodos spawned to agartha's southern throne and I to his northern one. If it were full wrap I think the difference would have been shinu's situation.That wouldn't have made a difference to agartha getting a pocket dimension with half the thrones he needed in it.Nowrap makes it worse, but the nowrap never would have been a problem if the randomgen didn't stick two thrones in agartha's pocket dimension, with the two cave entrances right next to eachother and two more thrones right next to them. Was that because of nowrap or are you arguing that the entire problem was that shinu couldn't contest the thrones?
>>495150107>are you arguing that the entire problem was that shinu couldn't contest the thrones?yes it is a problem when one out of four players cant contest another player from winning AT ALL just because theres no wraparound. with wraparound he could have easily contested.above posts about shinuyama being check keeper and all that, thats just bantz. what else is he supposed to do? only thing he can do is fight the righteous battle against the popkill nation, thats all he could do in this game, and why? because of no wraparound.me? i could have actually ignored shinuyama's raiding and made a better effort challenging agartha but i didnt. bad decision from me.shinuyama couldnt do shit, regardless of his decision making.thats the problem. and this problem is caused by no wraparound. it is not caused by the random throne placement.
>>495151023Cloud trapeze?
>>495155241gobbos?cloud trapezing?in this time of your?concentrated entirely in your game?but seriously E/W wraparound is standard and maps require a lot of fine tuning if they aren't going to do that. Way too easy to get boxed into a corner
>>495141436as a goodmin I always make sure there are good starts, no bad throne locations, and the map is wraparound. yes I would like a cookie
>>495155241cloud trapeez'n to yo momma's crib
we captured the throne?claim eet.

Wikipedia says this is Ereshkigal, not Ishtar or InannaHave we been duped? Is the Annunaki of the Underworld the real OG?
>>495172049Femanon detected, post nature gems
>>495172551They're the same person breg
>>495173480What
>>495173847ntaEreshkigal is often considered to be a reflex or aspect of Inanna, basically Inanna wearing a funny hat and maskShe's got a bunch of weird shit going on such as being married to the Bull of Heaven (the same Bull that Inanna throws a fit over to throw at Gilgamesh), sharing Inanna's husband for half the year, being Inanna's older sister, and having a name that translates to "Lady of the Earth". The main myth that Inanna and Ereshkigal both take part in is Inanna trying to go into the underworld to become the ruler of all three worlds (heaven, earth, and the underworld), and while Ereshkigal is the antagonist there she basically doesn't have a personality up until the point she kills Inanna, telling her that she needs to stop being so puffed up because she has no power here yada yada. You could substitute Ereshkigal with the laws of the underworld to the same effect. The moment Inanna dies Ereshkigal suddenly has a lot more personality, including constantly being in pain (which is weird since Inanna's the one who got stripped butt naked and stabbed to death) and being slutty.There's a decent chance that Ereshkigal was just one of Inanna's titles until later authors split them up. Basically Annunaki of Love & War, Annunaki of the Morning Star, and Annunaki of the Underworld are all the same god and her real base paths should be more like A2 E2 S2 N3 D3.

>>495192643>>495192754yeah skeleton and bugs spam, no battlefield wide combat spell thoughit was very close to fatiguing out, unlucky for nidder. Another weird thing is that the wyrm only cast fire shield after like 80 combat rounds
>>495193201oh and the wyrm also had fear 5 innate + fear 5 bless so it got rid of the good units pretty fast, might have been different without the extra fear
Rate my gem management this game. Genuinely no clue how to use these things
>>495193695huge waste.i only play nations with forging bonuses nowadays so i can spend all my gems easily on useful stuff and i always run short.so not sure how a non-forging-focus nation would do it best but i suppose even if your nation doesnt have forging bonuses you will want to forge something.
>>495194908crazy thing is i've actually been making summons i just dont have enough mage turns to sit around doing it. It's hard man. I could cast globals but I wouldnt need the gems from them it would just prevent others from casting theirs maybe?
>>495175547There should be an obsidian colossus in line with the wooden and bronze colossi, along with the colossal head, colossal fetish, and elephant idol. Forced dormant+, dom4, E1D2 (same paths as Obsidian Eye hero for Agartha), all the tags. I would make it available to R'lyeh (it reminds me of a Mask of Nyarlathotep) as well as Mictlan/Xibalba, Machaka, and maybe Agarth.t. colossus enjoyer

>>495212610Bro was fucking sniping my leaders with magic arrows. This was just for revenge, and I thought it'd be funny. I don't really care about winning, I failspanded like 4 times, and am puny while the last remaining humans seem to be in a forever war. I don't think this game will end any time soon....
>>495213040>comparing fixed damage spells (minus elemental resists) to literal save-or-die instakillsHoly fucking dishonest.
>>495213251>fixed damage spellsPillar of Fire does 35 fucking AP damage for 20 fatigue, and any F1 can cast it the whole combat with a single fire gem for Phoenix Power. You could have 15 FR and 20 prot and it'll still kill the entire square if it has human HP.>save or dieYeah...emphasis on the save. Most good troops already have pretty good MR and adding antimagic means even communion bonuses for penetration won't break through very often. It's also much worse against human size targets.
Astral is dishonest because all its spells are 100 range and aoe: 1 unit so no accuracy check.Positioning your mages at the back of the square instead of up front is extremely dishonest.
>>495213674>Pillar of Fire does 35 fucking AP damage for 20 fatigue, and any F1 can cast it the whole combat with a single fire gem for Phoenix Power. You could have 15 FR and 20 prot and it'll still kill the entire square if it has human HP.That's cool man. Master Enslave hits literally every enemy at once and even crummy little S2s can cast it with a big enough communion. And it's even better than an instant kill since you get the unit afterwards.
>>495213962Who the fuck puts their falling fires/shadow blast/iron blizzard/maws of the earth casters up frontunless you're talking about SCs, in which case I guess??If you ask me the main dishonesty of astral is that you can empower any random caster to S1 and instantly get full combat access to the entire path even if a random F1 adventurer from an event is the only F you have>>495214042Master Enslave is MRN Easy so it also isn't going to enslave shit worth enslaving through Antimagic unless you bring like 100 slaves, at which point you have 20k gold and probably hundreds of gems worth of resists to stop yourself from getting nuked out of existence by murdering winter on the field, and you're still not likely to hit dudes with 18 base MR. Have you ever actually played Pythium into someone who knows what they're doing?
>>495214698>Who the fuck puts their falling fires/shadow blast/iron blizzard/maws of the earth casters up frontif you don't, they will only ever selfbuff all battle

Kirkfors has Wraith Lord in 2nd year.
>>495214869your f3s self buff? with whatI've never had that problem with abysia/mari
>>495214916That can't be right, you'd need like 1k average research per turn. Gotta be a deepfake.
>>495215130furious warriors + whatever other path they have
>>495215139which is exactly what an air+death nation like kirkfors bragged about having >>495126715
>He didn't take the death 3 luck 3 pill
>>495215447Nah no way, even if you had 698 research starting from turn 0 it'd still take you 13 turns to hit conj8. The idea of casually going into const first and then making research boosters and then going into conj is impossible in that timeframe.
>>495215798and yet it i find it easier to believe than somebody unironically getting death 3 on their cap
>ubar wall defendersAbsolute joke of a DM nation
>>495215798But it's turn 22If it ramped up linearly, so that the first and 21st, 2nd and 20th, turns' research all add up to 700, then that's roughly the same amount
>>495216490You'd still need like 450 research/turn on average if we're assuming the wraith lord was cast last turn. That's just an impossible ask. Outside of mayyybe great archon shenanigans.
>>495214916It was an event.>>495215447Not me.
>>495210137Once you get the hang of using the hotkeys it is achievable. I used them in Gigablitz for most of the game, and won.
ez blood for blitz:1. pick 1-3 places to harvest blood slaves, send appropriate army to patrol there along with blood hunters.2. every turn send 1-2 commanders or scouts to the blood harvesting sites from a lab, every turn send 1-2 commanders or scouts from the harvesting location to a lab, dump or pick up blood slaves as appropriate.Might cost you a minute or two to do that and also distribute the blood slaves to armies. It takes time, but you can make it easy to manage. Also, there is some hotkey to give all blood slaves to one commander, and another to dump all the gems that a commander has, but I never used either because I couldnt be arsed to look it up in the middle of a blitz
>>495219007yeah im a hotkey master, still would like more time to get a good communion out with perfect fatigue but w/e

How many people are we waiting for in iMAgine_the_smell?
>>495232009999
>>495231980it wasnt me but i found it funny because of all the slop posting
I'm gonna set Luland AI in the natgen game because they did a triple stale. I feel a bit bad since they've been staling a lot but doing turn sporadically, but yeah if you can't find time to do one turn every few days at a minimum that won't really work.
>>495235453They're cooking! Trying to look nonthreatening by staling often.Check their turn and you'll see! Lots of repeat actions (forging, spells, and recruitment) + very high research (maybe highest in game!).
>>495239454Staling intentionally...The most elite veteran move
warhammerfag herethinking tzeentch units should have a slight weakness to poison
>>495242379why
>>495242601thematically, from an animus towards nurglenature is the only path they lack so it provides a difficult to evade attack vectorand I have only tested with them a bit, but they seem really strong.I am thinking like poison res -1 on the marauders, poison res -2 on chaos warriors, sombre gave the demons poison res, but I think it makes more sense as shock resist.Nurgle and tzeentch fighting would be a slaughter if all of the tzeentch demons have 10+ poison res lol. Very lore unfriendly
>>495242379Okay but anytime you nerf something you have to increase one of the Kislev bear stats by 1.(Poison resist -1 across any number of units is one nerf, posion resist -2 across any number of units is another nerf, etc).These are my demands.
>>495244139lolI will look more closely at stats on the next go roundI already removed the reclimit from the bearknights. That should tide you over lol
Do your multi-player turns!
>>495252020Playing as Nazca is suffering
>>495239454At first I thought they had forgotten to set a password but no they have one and I can confirm they're not cooking anything and their research is bad. They're also getting vultured by at least one dude and I'm activating their AI neurons to give them a fighting chance with their 19k saved gold. Sorry to Luland's player if they pop back in at any point. Well if they pop back in before the turn rolls they can un-AI themselves.
I'm so sorry Hinnom, if only I had attacked two turns earlier this would have been preventable. In truth I didn't think it's going so badly for Aby.For shame too, it was about the only game that has been going well for me.
>>495232009I dunno this is probably good. I'll start soon. Everyone playing iMAgine_the_smell, if you need to change your tendies or anything, please do it within the next few hours. It's currently 2:23pm where I am, and I'll start this evening.
>>495256730Shit I thought we had 14 but it's 12. I can't count. Join up niggas, the more the merrier!
>>495256851there's an ermor in the game that will be going blood vengeanceid rather KRILL myself than deal with an ermor hell bless

I once had the biggest edgelord ermor ever write some paragraph of an in-game message because I dared attack him (I didnt want to play after spawning near him)
Blitz?
I feel like I've played like 3 dozens games of 6 already and I still haven't won a single one, I don't think I've even gotten to be serious contender for victory.
>>495257441>>495256891I don't like MA Ermor either, but making rules about certain nations not being allowed seems faggy.
>>495258261I have won, and I'm a newfag who does dumb shit all the time. Chin up, bro. You'll get one eventually.
>>495258271in domg games it is indeed faggy to ban, but in discord games I prefer the popkills being banned (as well as fear bless, fuck that)
>>495258453So you think faggy rules are appropriate for faggy games? I can't fault your logic. Seems legit.
>>495258261Well, why haven't you? Examine where you fall short and work backwards from there. Often times players especially newer ones get stuck in the rut of thinking having a solid amount of provs and not at war = good, when in practice that's just a recipe for stagnation. It really can't be emphasized enough that if you're sitting pretty on a good number of provs but not currently warring with anyone, you're just getting weaker and weaker as the game goes on. Allowances can be made for waiting to hit key spells and stuff, but generally you want action. If you get a kill or two by the midgame and a decent number of thrones, it's a lot easier to doomstack someone alongside a throne rush to get over the finish line.
>>495258598yes, domg games it's fine to be as gay as possible because you can go AI at any point you stop having funin discord games you are locked into a game if someone decides to be a huge fag cause chronic leavers wont find people to play with

iMAgine_the_smell has 12 players and will start soon, so finalize your tendies if they're not already.I'd love to see a few more if anybody wants to make the game more groß.https://beta.blitzserver.net/game/366#statushttps://beta.blitzserver.net/game/366#statushttps://beta.blitzserver.net/game/366#statushttps://beta.blitzserver.net/game/366#statushttps://beta.blitzserver.net/game/366#status
blitz dead?
>>495269732It seems to be, yes.Want to 1v1?
>>495270039ok, i prefer without slops but ill play either way
>>495270157Give me a bit to look through the inspector and see if there's anything niche in vanilla I can play with.
>>495270039also no need for oneage when we both play ea
>>495270270Yeah I'll turn it off.
Alright, starting.
gonna try out a few new tactics
>two playersgrim
>>4952728061v1 pro league
caught you lol you even pd dumped
Illwinter really, unironically, needs to give us an Australian aboriginal nation. I'm not the only person here who thinks that would be pure kino, am I?
>>495274516Nothen personnel kidClose fight. Horde of skeletons on the pretender save the day. I was shitting bricks when he decided to cast rigor mortis off script
cool fightmy insect spam couldnt beat your skele spam
>>495279045>Close fight.yep. also my telkhine god-king wasnt ready yet. now he is.
your horror mark hit him. was it because i put him in the front, making it more likely for it to hit?
>>495281340Yeah. Targeting is some weird function of expected effect + closeness.
>>495281702then why do archers constantly target my backline???
>>495281767That's spells I mean, I think fire without target is random.Did you at least cop an affliction, therodos?
>>495267449GET THE FUCK IN HERE YOU GODDAMN NIGGERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh by the wayIT BEGINS
>>495281767>>495281852>That's spells I mean, I think fire without target is random.yes fire without target is random. i think attack without target is also random.>Did you at least cop an affliction, therodos?you will find out soon enough
>>495282158Well whatever you plan on doing with him you better do it fast
where is my nation of cute asian sluts
>routs after dying once
>>495283183Tea and Cheese, or Sauro
>>495283334Tien Chi's only female unit is an overpriced spy and it's not even a seducer
>>495283408>imperial consortmmh>he forgets the huli jing
>>495283624chinese women don't look like this
>>495283712That's a fox bro
>>495283812Surely chinese mythology would be the OG to tanukis
>>495283924idk if the chinks have a tanuki equivalent desuthey do canonically have a nation of all women who drink from a pregnancy river to get knocked upthe river also works on men in case you want to be MPreg
>>495284043mate
>>495284214...do you even know what a tanuki is?
the important thing is to believe new nations are coming
>>495284396I typed tanuki when I wanted to type kitsune
Oh shit I forgot dom6 made it so immortals drop their globals when they die.
FINALLY
ughhh should have just told him to cast personal flight and attack rear. simplest solution is always the best instead of mental gymnastics. oh well.i give up. i dont see how i can win this because first of all i dont have any gold income, second of all, my gem income is pathetic as well. i cant even play for thrones because it would take ages to get a fort up anywhere.gg thanks for game
jee jee then therodos
>>495286353>i cant even play for thrones because it would take ages to get a fort up anywhere.Yeah this map was BUILT big torgrin cock. There was like four provinces on the map that weren't connected to a UW province.Sorry for taking so long to close it out. I stuck my pretender at home safe after the first time I accidentally blew him up and took down my global, and it was taking forever to waddle my H3s over.
Is Torgrin actually good now? I thought he was a meme
>>495286725I came for the meme but stayed for the surprisingly effective raiding. There's a lot of things that I can think would contribute to him being better in dom6 in general, and a lot of things that may contribute to him being better just in blitzes specifically. But all in all I'm actually very happy with him.His province targeting SEEMS a lot better at least, in dom4 the extra armadas were pointless because they all tended to attack the same province anyway.
>>495284043>the river also works on men in case you want to be MPregSo that's where the weird asian omegaverse thing came from.
>>495287427idk what the asian omegaverse isit originally shows up in Journey to the West where iirc the pig and the monk drink the water, get pregnant, and that chapter is basically "Wukong has to get the magic abortion water from the evil taoist monopolizing it, before he dies of laughter from the whole affair"He also needs to keep the women away from the monk so the monk doesn't lose his holy powers from getting pussy
>>495278979how would it be substantially different from ea machaka? unironically
>>495287638not him but DomEnhanced had EA Alcherda and it was pretty wild, they had magic power human sacreds for one
>>495254039damn i knew i should have started sooner
>>495287638I don't know enough about abos to plan the nation but I know by Swedish nigga would figure it out and do a good job.
>>495289717>Swedish nigga would figure it out and do a good job>meanwhile Persia (Caelum) and China (Tien Chi):if it's not in Europe they're not going to do a good job
iMAgine_the smell badmin here. We have 13. Should I start it or do we want more?
>>495296414start whenever you want
>>495296930That's exactly what I intend to do my friend. I'm trying to determine when I want.
>>495297762a goodmin starts when he starts and doesnt listen to the sheeple. a goodmin rules with an iron fist. a goodmin selects the map and mods for his game that he wants. a goodmin does not hand out extensions like candy.but youre already self-proclaimed badmin so its kinda over for you
>>495296930>>495297762I think I've decided the answer to that question is now. Just need to decide on throne settings and I'll fire it up.
>>495298412>but youre already self-proclaimed badminNigga I'm an absolute madmin.
>>495298412Does a goodmin ban nations he doesn't like?
iMAgine_the_smell is STARTED.So DO YOUR TURNS.
>>495298412Does a goodmin restart if he gets a start location he doesn't like? Because that happened.
>>495299893no>>495300282no
Bravo Holy Diver admin. I have this in my cap circle. I also have a throne in my cap lmao.
>>495299893>>495300282did holy diver admin restart the game because he didnt have a good start? LMAO
>>495302512I don't know bro, I'm just being retarded over here. Don't mind me.
I've been wondering for months now and I'm finally going to ask - what the fuck is the little eye icon next to players' names on the blitzserver status page?
>>495304112The eye of providence bro
>>495304112It's for the admin only, he gets to see your game key and IP for moderating purposes.
>>495304112you can click it to track that player's turns on the server list page. usually your own turns. if you have made your turn the game will appear as blue, if you havent made your turn it will appear as red. so you can see your turns at a glance on the server list.
>>495287638>sailing>strong half giants with some innate elemental resistances/or good MR>national summons like the bunyip and shit (australian mythology goes kinda hard)>primitive forts but earth gems from templesThere's a lot of potential desu
>>495278979There's already a bunch of caveman/tribal themed nations we really dont need another, abos are lame as fuck anyway.
>>495305001>abos are lame as fuck anyway.I fascinated by them and want to meet some.
>>495304874>but earth gems from templesfuck off retard
>>495305383>and want to meet someYou can only say this because you've never seen their literal monkey brain asses
>>495306838They sound like fun. I want to get wasted with them and drunkenly creampie their daughters.
>>495306717why wouldn't an abbo temple (petrol station) produced earth gems ((petrol) earth blood)?
>>495306717? illwinter literally made a special gems from temples mod attribute just for this
>>495304874Rainbow Serpent tendy is a must.Also their version of the demilich should be housed in a VB tinny.
Bros.....please.......a blitz...my throne for a blitz...
>>495309469You realize anybody can start a game, even you?
>>495309469>>495310194up for a blitz-to-long game? blitz until turn 30 and then its 24 hour turns?
>>495310949I'm shitposting from bed
>>495311210I'm bedposting from shit
>>495292672there are two aztec nations, two indian nations, two greek nations, three celtic nations, half a dozen norse nations and they are still fairly uniquesurely two black nations can coexist
>>495310194I don't know how chief>>495310949Sounds good
>>495313082Then I guess anyone can start a game except you.
>>495312659And yet most of them have the level of detail you'd expect out of Jared Diamond
>>495313992no idea who tf that is but mekone and arcoscephale, fomoria and marverni, niefelheim and helheim definitely feel distinct
I promised myself I won't play this shit game because waiting for turns makes me anxious.But now I want to play again after abstaining for 5 months.
>>495313279Captain obvious
>>495314458embrace bushido and you'll never suffer turn anxiety again.
Random gen is goo-
>>495314458Do blitzsesThey have been really popular latelyAlso you have to look at each turn as gambling. Enjoy the highs, despair in the lows
>>495320709>6 gem, 40,000 population province in your cap circleGreat start
>>49532070995% of the time this is because the admin set way too few provs per player and the capital algorithm is forced to squeeze them together.
>>495320709every champion was once a contender...
No money, no gems, 400 crabs inexplicably outrunning me around my capital. Oh yeah, I'm thinking another amazing Natgen turn.
>>495329367
>>495329367Is this kirkfors? The crabs are getting a little big for their britches...
>>495329627Yes, somehow he hasn't realized that I would have probably died to his initial attack if he actually decided to fight. I sort of have a few tricks saved up now but unless there's some outside interference I'm invariably dead soon.
>>495330286It's funny, I'm pretty sure we all assumed you were kicking his ass from that one battle screenshot with a wraith lord. Those crab troops are pretty bullshit strong.
>>495330394Yeah it was strange, that wasn't even a portion of his army. That was everything in my entire arsenal. I assumed I'd have my final fight that turn and go AI but he's just been running away. I suppose he thinks my research must be good because of my random ass wraithlord.
>>495329367>think about joining natgen game>start looking at the nations>there's a crab/elephant nation>stop thinking about joining natgen gameit's that easy
>>495331598The crabs are actually fine desu, they're just the race equivalent of MA Ulm. Insanely efficient regular guys, hyper expensive mages all saddled with inept researcher. The cheapest mage the crabs have this game costs 120 gold for glamour 1 and supplies only 4 RP/turn.
>>495331598It makes sense that the crabs are rushing me. He has death power and I have a death domain. But that was the risk I was taking in order to have my invisible giants be able to play pranks on people. His mages blow fat ass in comparison to mine, and he's hitting me before mine can do anything. All's fair. He's just going about it in the most exhausting way possible.
>>495332179>I have a death domainwhy would you do that to yourself? with expensive giants too
>>495333083Because skulls are cool.
>>495336010i kneel
>>495331824>they're just the race equivalent of MA Ulm. Insanely efficient regular guysWrong, Ulm has to ramp up its resources to manifest that efficiency whereas the crabs have it turn 0 with insane natprot that has no associated cost. They also have high HP that makes up for many counters to Ulm's infantry.>The cheapest mage the crabs have this game costs 120 gold for glamour 1 and supplies only 4 RP/turn.That's just one seed. There's nothing that makes crab mages generally worse than other mages, in fact they're much better because they're harder to kill than other nations' blockers.
>>495341678But it's this seed. That makes crab mages worse this game
>>495341873for the same price, other nations are getting 11-13rp
>>495341678>That's just one seed. There's nothing that makes crab mages generally worse than other magesI'm pretty sure they innately get slapped with inept researcher, I remember the other crab nations getting it in previous natgen games.
>>495342320they are also overcosted generally
>>495342320which is kinda strange that it's crabs specifically and not the caveman types
don't crabs also have really high MR and void sanity
>>495345457i mean void sanity only matters for la rlyeh which is not here
>>495345457They have really LOW MR. 8 base which is worse than ulmites.
>>495345573Speaking of void sanitywhat does it even DO
>>495346468Void sanity X means the chance to act randomly because of insanity is divided by 1+X. It also means when you fight in the void you aren't disoriented.
>>495345573>>495345631kinda based>dreams of ryleh>but you don't get your stats halved so you just snibbedy the squid
>>495346919what's a rlyeh, we only have non-insane squids here
>>495345631wouldn't that just make their troops better soul slay catchers to protect the mages?
>>495347997I guess in theory, but summoned animals do the same thing and also if you're up against soul slay it's just a matter of time until master enslave comes out in which case you're super cooked.
>>495348367its a matter of a very long time though, if master enslave comes out and you still rely on doomstacks of normal troops you are cooked anywayi guess winds of death would be the other relevant mr targeting spell but im not sure what the crabs max age is
https://beta.blitzserver.net/game/373#statusBlitz?
>>495346584doesn't it make you immune to mind slime?And I think some spells can be marked to not affect void sane stuff p sure
>>495349640I'll play in about 45 min
>>495353176Alright, with you will have three.I really wanna play that new map but we need like at least 6 players for it. Probably more like 8.
>>495349640ill join soonI wonder what region do most domg posters come from, feels like its mostly EU and oceanic.
>>495349640We got 4 players reportin!
well, aren't you lucky
>>495361705>>495361537FugI gotta cut down a tree. Hopefully I wont be too long.
>>495362207Who needs luck when you have fear?
>>495362514>anons busy making an axe of hate
When start blitz
>>495366086It was bait, there's no blitz.
>>495367786
>>495366086Sorry almost done with the yard work. SOON:tm:
>>495366086Start once the tree is chopped, I imagine.Otherwise it'll start when my food arrives so that I stale the most important early turns.
>>495369194That is the only reason I asked, I always miss the first turn and everyone is yelling at me
>>495349640>won't get enough sleep before gigablitz if I joingvh...
>>495370682Join to give the Gigablitz players a chance. Would also be funny if we end up with more players than during Gigablitz.
Alright finally starting, sorry anons. I'll give a while for the first turn.
Oh yeah blind expanding into barbarians before immediately going AI, it's blitz time.
>>495371614>Waiting 3 hours for the game to start so you can go ai turn 1Now that's dedication
>>495371614Why do people blind expand it is so greedy and dumb
>>495371887Every game's a gamble, brother. Might as roll the dice right away.
>>495371887The payoff is pretty good.For my part I won the first gamble of not spawning on desert island (where I expect Na Ba to be, along with Xibalba).
>>495372037No, might as well not. Second turn your scout gets information on a neighboring province, you have a prophet, and you have more troops
Ok I'm here, time to do this turn real quick.
>>495372316This is my prediction on spawns btw.
>>495372636I didn't get the cool island spawn this time :(
>>495372790Damn, in that case Lemuria stole it (maybe).
>>495372887I may not have stolen the island, but I did successfully avoid the turn 1 barbarians.
>>495372636Don't put me next to NaBa plst. Xibalboi
>>495372976Turn 3 event killed my mage. It's fucked.
>>495373380Misfortune are 'free' scalesORMisfortune are free scales
I love this map so much
>>495375284It's actually pretty cool I like it.
>>495372636very wrong
>>495375784I noticed. :(
horro marking site in capILLFRAUD!!!!!
>>495377190*casts summon lammashta in ur direction*
>>495377190Fortunelet sisters...
>>495377190*bootstrapping into blood to cast Astral Corruption*
>>495377470SOME PRETENDERS ARE BORNMADE TO GET EVENTSHOOOOTHEY're T3L3M3AND WHEN THE MESSAGE READS "BARBS HAVE ATTACKED"OOOOH THEY BECOME COMPUTER CONTROLLED
>Barbarian event on a province completing a fortress and lab this turnMISFORTUNE ROCKS
I also lost a fort to indie attack. Truly we are playing the same game.
>>495378031There's this new thing now man. It's called province defense...
>>495378106I don't think it's typical to dump enough gold into PD to defeat 80 barbarians at this point in the game.
>>495378106Illwinter sets province defense to 1 automatically, I shan't veer from their vision.(I lost the pd I put up as well).
I never dump mis unless i can easily clear knights and barbs with a small squad or light thug. And even then it's better to have luck so you don't have to backtrack and micro squads
>>495378210domg vets always place 70-80 pd in their provs
I hope you remembered to put PD on your coasts anons.
how do I use blood magic offensively, they just die to gem baiting or spells and shit in fights, they're good for defending castles but impossible to use otherwise. Doubling up doesnt work at all cause they die to auras and shit so fast
>>495378995I find blood all works like how you use elementals or lammashtas, you use it for clutching fights specifically; fort defense is a big part of that, yes.
>>495378957DONT FUCKING DO IT OR I SWEAR TO GOD I'M BEELINING FOR YOUR ASS
>>495379173Send me 3000 gold and a NAP. I don't think globals target nations you have a NAP with.
Xibalbrat.. Are you still there..?
jomon is going to be the threat in some time when they rule the waves
>>495379507>Jomon>Threat
>>495379507This is pure nabanese shaytan propaganda do not fall for it.
I set max stales to 1 so it stops waiting for xibalba when he stales but when he comes out of hibernation he can keep playing.
Jomon WILL have access to atleast 4 coastal thrones.
Illwinter has given me an army to fight off the horrors
>>495380026If it makes you feel any better I'm on my third barbarian event.
TEE SEEEEEE
>>495379507Shrimp soldiers are cool.Ryujin thugs can stop others winning too fast by tp-ing onto thrones as well.Overall Na Ba can make water breathing gear and go deal with them.No threat here.
>>495380201I feel your pain, I've now been TROGGED
>>495380834>No threat
>>495380962Na Ba winning in province count, income, and . . . hmm, Jomon researching a bit too much, should slow down.
>>495379507kek>>495379556this
>>495381862Not having anyone contesting the free water provinces to spam shark soldiers and thug dragons is a big deal
I dont feel so good..
>>495382206You always photoshop out the water sites since you always cast the dude. Won't fall for this trick again!>>495381967Na Ba is the biggest, they can contest it.
>>495379237they do
>>495382384I don't see how they can fight UW with no water mage, even if they have 1 (One) W income. They can't build forts UW as well
>>495382528I don't think you beat uw nations by building more forts for them (if you could).Na Ba has good mobility and Jomon is also on the surface, just push them underwater.
>>495382206I've gotten 0 death sites as Lemuria. God hates ghosts.
>>495382528you sure they cant? i know ubar can
>>495382897What if we increase magic site frequency to 100% next blitz.Surely infinite gems wouldn't impact game balance at all, and it would be more fun.
>>495382954If they get to conj8 for Marids game is already fucking over by that point
>>495382897Oh shit I fucked up.I meant to increase the magic site frequency and accidentally decreased it instead.
>>495383752Should play with 0 magic site frequency. Make every gem gen (hammer) count!
>>49538375255's not bad, I just got unlucky. It happens. I doubt people would have fun if I had gems to cast 10,000 globals.
>>495383849But what if I never get a water site?How will I cast ghost ship armada?
>>495383909You start with gem income, you can turn it into pearls and turn that into water.So just make sure the game lasts a long, long time.
>>495383371i just use indies to make forts uw
How expand with sceleria i took dracolich and still failing too much with my shitty velites
L2 FTW
THREAT DETECTEDALERT
>>495385510>Attacks my province with no prior warning>forts up next to me>refuses to elaborateWhy is c'tis like this
>>495385687I know you're hoarding all the water gems down there you waterlogged fucker. Either send me them or I'll cast thetis blessing.
>>495385765What if he's using all those Omnyo-ji to search for pearls for dispel?
Honestly the toughest thing about a blitz is playing so fast. I can't even think about what im doing, I'm just slamming spells/units
>>495385765You could've just asked yeesh man, so toxic.I actually dont have that much water income either right now.
>>495385927GoodGOODFINALLY
>>495385510oh my god is that 70 units im going insaaaaaaaane
>>495386164Not pictured: the additional 70 water elementals
>>495385923All I've been doing is scripting horde of skeletons and arrange my ghosts in a line. It's good being dead. With exception to my dragon I guess.
WHAT DID WE SAY ABOUT CASTING TORGRIN
>>495386423It was inevitable
Exploiting water maps for your sick perversion.
Fellas.... finding all my ryujins and moving them each turn is getting a bit hectic...
>>495386198well maybe you should have pictured that instead
Shinu here, I've gotta go. Was just getting to the good part.Password is Shinu if someone else wants to take over. Peaceful position, lots of forts.Otherwise I can probably return in some number of hours, which would be funny.
YOU THINK ITS OVER?IT HASN'T EVEN BEGUN
My brightest minds couldn't have foreseen that turn. My Lemurian scholars are hard at work.
SHARKS REFUSE TO BE PUSHED BACK INTO THE WATER
>>495387873Woops forgot image
Lemuria u fkn wot m8
>>495388152Mom said it was my turn.
did we lose shinu?
>>495388934>>495387356
slowly but surely we are pushing back the undead menance.
>>495389486I was one turn out. Alas.
Fuuugggg
I hope you bastards are doing something about the jomonese menace
>>495390923>Jomonese Menace>Meanwhile naaba has 3 enchantments up
>>495391402t. Jomon
I'm going to call for myself. I'm its 4am here and i'm too tired to slug it out lemuria and scripting armies that can defeat grip + rigor. I know its lame but I'm going to sleep now. Password is: allyourbase if someone wants to join.
>>495391513The only time I cast rigor was when I lost anyways in Nifel. You gem baited the other possible time.I don't blame you though. I've got 5 clustered fortresses full of ghosts, leprosy and pirates hitting you from behind. That can't be fun.
>>495391736You can keep rigoring and add on grip, and its going to get more and more micro intensive for me to match the fatigue play + skeletons. If I don't get the right spells up you can stack wipe me.Honestly its all my fault for playing TC. If I was taking Ulm i could live and die by casting SoG, WoS, maws and other easy to use earth spells. TC is just micro intensive and doesn't have an easy 'just do x' strategy' outside of spamming my nat summons. Either way GG, you had me on the ropes for a moment, and ultimately I'm the one quitting so I concede victory to you in our little war.
Folks i'm bored out of my mind after 6 hrs. I'm going off
>>495392673Help me fight jomon damnit
YOU BLOODY BASTARD BENCHOD BASTARD BLOODYWhich spell is that again
>>495392276After the massacre of my siege of Nifel you pretty much beat me in combat thereafter. I think my research game being so bad didn't help but I see where you're coming from. Though, I probably would have quit if my dragon died there. Seeing your army on the throne get halved every turn from leprosy is a real Lemuria moment.Some unfortunate timing on things for me. If my mages were one turn fast enough to get into the fort things might have gone differently. I mean I would have lost still, but it would have been a nicer looking fight.I was also one turn away from casting transport gems to the rigor mortis mage.
>>495330286>>495330697100~ Fear blessed sacreds is enough to give any reasonable crab pause, i'd say
>>495392850Oh it's leprosy, gotta pay attention to that in the future.
>>495392850You should have just give me the water gems.ALL YOU HAD TO DO WAS LISTEN
>>495393426I gave you the gems and didn't even go after your cave forts and this is how I get treated....
>>495393536Dispel my global?I'll dispel your fucking life.
>>495393613IT WASNT MEFucking kek I should NOT have had stacked them so hard
>>495393662I'd almost believe you did it on purpose. That's the meatiest shadow blast artillery I've seen in my life.>IT WASNT MENANI
>>495393613>not posting the impactnever joining your tease-ass blitz now
Time flies in blitzes. It's bed time for ghosts.I tried overcasting the last member of the cancer trifecta but got shut-out(BoT). I don't even know if it would have impacted you guys all that much anyways.GG
Eating dinner I might stale.t.ctis
>want to use death magic>sceleria is garbage to play and constantly rushed>popkills feel like cheatingwhat do
>gigablitz is in 3 hoursI made a mistakeI'm going to have to resign because im definitely not going to make it after this one.I dont know if you can handle doing two giga blitzes in a row blitzmin but good luck to you.
>>495395080play any of the other 10+ nations with death
>>495395080Fomoria Anon, Fomoria... Granted, all they really have out of cap is air magic.
Killed 10 out of 15. Not bad. I'm off.Still claim victory with all magic researched.
>>495396302GGs Honestly have no clue how I managed to hold the cap.
Im going to hop off after the next big fight im getting pretty tired.
>>495397262Do you wanna fight on Dommen?
>>495397282yep, coming over.
AieeeeIf that was you you just killed 8/10 sauros foul air is a hell of a drug
Fug I should have left the PD at home
>>495397394Yep, had to get revenge for that cheeky leprosy earlier that doomed my 20+ ryuujins, hundreds of sharks and my water hero.I forgot to unstack the ryuujins again kek if sauromancers were alive it would've been another shadowblast disaster.
>>495397694Well thanks for playing.Make sure to come back in a few hours for round two.
>>495397787Cant do unfortunately I'm going to go hit the sack, this match was fun though learned quite a few things.
forsake your real life and bodily needs.embrace full-time blitz completely.
>>495387356I'm back! C'tis, get back in here and keep playing!I've got 91k gold and 100s of bakemono shamans. They gotta fight someone!I was the one who dispelled your first cast of the ship armada. Come have your revenge!
>>495398178Temeeeee
>>495398775Alright took my turn. AI's been gobbling me up and I think you are on the other side of the map from me so it'll be a mopping operation for a while.
>>495398775I dispelled Foul Air as well (I'm surprised no one attacked me lol).
AI keeps casting globals on the same turn I cast well of misery and I keep losing the lottery.
>Just realised I'm about to be domkilled
GIGABLITZERSare you ready FOR THISproper throne settings this time (i hope) so it will be actually interesting
>>495401810I was tempted to cast the nature and glamour domkill globals, but I was greedy and went for that instead.If Gigablitz starts and no one has won then I'll try it.
AIEEEE
>>495404391here we see the skeletons natural enemy, a chokepoint
>FirestormVery dishonest
>>495405720third slot in script, so there is counter play.I think you can cast frostflesh army as well (W2 + boosters), but I guess that doesn't help skellies spawned later.
>>495406110Well it mostly a joke, I was hoping the shadow blast would do more. I shouldn't have gotten lazy and given the rest of my sauros gems too.
>>495406198Fair, I didn't undo my mage bunching, so they are weak to getting hit by enough blasts (I flinched and looked away every time, so idk where the blasts landed).
>>495406580Mostly on your archers, which is what I kinda wanted, but they spread them so thin that it ended up doing half hp to most of your archers while actually killing not that many of them.
redpill me on shadow blast/bolt is it really worth the gem and 100 fatigue?
>>495407724In dom5 it did a fuckload of damage with an MR check in a fairly big AOE. Dom6 reduced the damage by something like half but made it check to do half damage. Its turned from "ulmite smasher" into "mage blob smasher".
>>495407724Absolutely. If you get a battery of mages to cast it you can mess up a whole lot of expensive/powerful units. If you can, give some of them an accuracy boost with spells and/or items.
*CAST* *CAST* *CAST*GET DISEASED GET DISEASED GET DISEASED
>>495407724to spam not really but as an alpha strike it's very good for 2-3 casts
>>495408163That army is gonna die in a few turns now. Aaa.I don't recognise the spell. I can only hope it costs a lot so by the time the next army comes you run out of gems.(Looks at Well of Misery)
>>495408453Well of misery is about a third of my death gem income right now
>>495408038>>495408075interesting, wouldn't it completely deplete your death gems in one battle to pay one for each? i guess it would only be used for decisive fightsdo you just spam masses of anyfort d2/3s with one gem each then other spells so they dont use another to boost?>>495408361right, i was thinking it sounds very expensive compared to the likes of falling fires, but a few casts can help tilt the scale if they resist everything else
>>495408530https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q4XCZfkGF8k
>>495408530>do you just spam masses of anyfort d2/3s with one gem each then other spells so they dont use another to boost?The aoe scales with death so you want them on big death casters, but D3s can work if you really just want to kill some things dead.
>>495408530Death magic does not have many options for direct damage spells, this one is pretty much the best you'll get. It works well against expensive enemy sacreds and big fat units like heavy cavalry, that is where it truly shines. It is basically a waste to use it against low tier standard tier units
>>495408739right, forgot about the scaling>>495408981yea i was thinking either this, horde of skeletons or terror for all those enarie labrats
>>495408981The damage isn't as good as it used to be, its actually not that great against fat units, but definitely still good against elites.
40 minutes until the GIGA-BLLLLLLLIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITZ
>>495409675what's the difference between a daily blitz and a gigablitz
>>495409675HYPE!!
>>495409429>>495408981yes. I like using it versus hellblessed cavalry. I dont know WHY it works so well versus them but it does. LA pyrene got absolutely decimated by it
>Stygian path onto a throne with 70 ether warriors, 70 unfrozen warriors, and 70 dust warrirorsI'm going to fucking KMS myself
>>495410027I'd win
>>495410113It wasnt your throne
>>495410027lmao fuck that spell, it's so uncertain I don't know when you'd want to use it
>>495410156This is the first time I've gotten fucked by it like that. I used it pretty often, its got huge range so you can just sling wigghts, unfrozen, etc all over the map.
>>495409854gigablitz is planned weeks ahead and hopefully gets lots of players but player count right now is kinda looking grim.maybe everyone got traumatised from the shit throne settings in last gigablitz.
>>495410156dont the astral travel spells all have a chance of getting fucked by that too?
>>495410305Whoa fuck it wasn't meant to start yet, its like half an hour early.Oops I havent even submitted.
>>495410027>>495410156bro your lampads?
>>495410278It's gotta be better than faery trod I guess
>>495410305I didnt see any settings and as a bongland guy it's kinda early. Time zones are just a big reason why 24 hour timers exist. It sucks but only way to get large games
>>495410305I'll join now that I don't see 3/4 players being popkill niggers
>>495411104You fucking nigger I was about to lock in as anti-popkill Ur FUCKalright whatever i have 20 minutes
Shinu we got six minutes to finish this.FUCKINGGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>495412464Army is stuck btw, they try to move but get pushed back so they can't even reach the throne. Will run out of gems and perish.Truly a Lemuria moment.
>>495412602AAAA!I'm trying to figure out a way to have my god gateway onto another throne, but it is looking grim.
might be a tad late to the first turn, prepping a mealif im late give me a few. gotta get some coffee so i dont die in the middle of this one-sceleria
>Failed to take lemuria's throneIts overIts so overIts never been this over.Computers win. I am submitting to the machine mastermind shinu.
OH GOD WHY IS THIS A THING
>>495410305i dont remember seeing much of anything before on this one compared to the previousand i still have the cooft. sauro from last week
Gonna make a coffee and a smoke then I'm starting gigablitz.Consider this final call for any late joiners.>>495413264I didn't shill this one as much, I was hoping anons would kinda just figure it out based on last one.
>>495413056DO NOT FEAR I EMPOWERED IN ASTRAL -- the Celestial Sphere descends . . . as I astral travel 5 provinces at a time AAA
>>495413347i just assumed that was a one time thing instead of recurring ngl
>>495413387Every day there is the daily blitzAnd every weekend there is the weekly giga blitzThere is no stopping it
>>495413350GG -- ai ain't gonna let me take the throne for free.I'll try to cast the domkill spells then go afk. See if the turn timer ticking leads to a win, aha.
>>495413503naruhodo
so what made you pick c'tis to be your favorite, blitzmin?
>>495413507I sent you some e-gold
>>495413661he is australian
>>495413507That's a lot of japanese goblins...
>>495413661I tried them because they were necromancers, but now I just think serpent dancers are really neat.
>>495413761wouldn't australians like machaka instead>>495413827fair enough
Starting gigablitz. Tel me if I fucked the settings and I'll restart. I'm getting tired after 12 hours of blitzing.Which is actually no more giga than the blitz we just had but oh well
>>495413736Cheers! Will be handy for when I knock down my gold global and go into negative income.
>>495413918>wouldn't australians like machaka insteadno because ctis is lizards summoning beasts from tartaria.australia is full of lizards and beasts.
>>495414128yeah but giant spiders
Shinu is also good for aussies.
i cannot believe we are doing slops
>>495414579Only one person seemed to vote against (with the tendie thing). Having a better way to poll might be good, idk.
>>495414579i cant believe you are heterosexual
>>495414815im not
>>495402186I'm ready for you to turn off goysloop
i failspanded can we restart
>>495405720I try to use every spell, unit, or tactic that I ever see called dishonest.
>>495415093What's wrong with sloop, can you really name a significant issue it has compared to vanilla where over 80% of the spells are just filler?
>>495415232Touch of death is by far the most dishonest.45 damage and unresistable, how are you meant to counter that? LIterally uncounterable.
>sloopshater is a whiny faggotYeah, that fits
>>495415252ghouls being three times as strong for no reason
>>495415252>What's wrong with sloopI'm against it on principle. I'm not going to learn two different versions of what every goddamn thing does, and it's retarded that somebody would feel the need to go making tweaks to everything.
Why do jooos hate the red men so much?
>>495415465>. I'm not going to learn two different versions of what every goddamn thing doesseconding this. you cant really call slops truly balanced anyway. so if vanilla isnt balanced and if slops isnt balanced then of course ill take the original creator's unbalance instead of slops unbalance.
>>495415465The only difference for 90% of the cases is vanilla is Number while Sloop is Number+
>>495415648this mostly, mostly really problematic units or spells are changed so its only a couple of things you need to remember
Is pd dumping the most dishonest tactic?
>>495415648theres also construction items shifted to different research levels so thats annoying to keep in mind. and then you inevitably forget that you dont have to research for some items and the slop babby who plays slop all the time has an advantage. just annoying to deal with that crap.
>>495415767no because youre just wasting your gold
>>495415845Literally just drag the mod file into the inspector dummy or just read the changelog if it fucks you up that badly. None of the boosters got moved iirc.
>>495415845>>495415465>>495415617I agree with the principle but with dom6 there's just so many dumbass shit changes I can't really justify with going vanilla on the basis of "its the creator's vision". I don't know how illwinter intends players to play, but its certainly not how my games look.
>>495415979water bracelet gets moved from construction 7 to construction 5, slop babby again displaying his own lack of familiarity with the slop hes playing
>>495416186Cool, it still doesn't make water non shit besides a single meme spell.
>>495415767It's the shittiest tactic that pays off just often enough so that bad players will continue to use it
>>495415441Did you also get raided by blitzmin summoning them?I found 21 pd rekts them pretty often, which is a good trade.
>>495416186also yeah speaking of that how silly is that? water bracelet is a cheap booster you "pay" for by researching all the way to 7. in construction 5 you have the robe of the sea which is a more expensive booster. so yeah it just makes the robe of the sea pointless most of the time unless you want to boost to +2 which is uncommon
>>495416421Huh, I almost always build bracelet so I can build robes. Wanting +2 doesn't seem uncommon to me, but prob depends on nation.
>>495416421You can use it to cast ghost ship armada. That's pretty useful.
>>495415465Rather than expecting us to host vanilla so that you can learn through multiplayer, you could play it on your own, or even host your own vanilla games. It is infantile to demand that we bend to your whims, lazy and amateur as they are.
Shinu here, dailyblitz is in purgatory (hosting failed).I was storming C'tis with my tp-ing army for the last throne too (prob would've lost, but maybe it was chaff inside?).Dreams of the Awakening God would've won in like 20 turns or something otherwise.Anyhow, I'm off to sleep. Good luck with the Gigablitz!
New Pantokrator just dropped>>495417139>>495417139>>495417139>>495417139>>495417139
>>495416421>unless you want to boost to +2 which is uncommonWhat the fuck are you talking about? Taking W2 to W4 or W3 to W5 is a really big deal.
>>495417184>its another one with no sloopsthe faggot strikes again
>>495415845The absolute state of "sloop haters"
>>495417184>no sloopsTherodos....
>>495417067Just shut the fuck up.
>>495417184oh nononono
>>495417340thats not me schizo

Today the janny was based
Okay for real why did the tranny janny delete two generals? He did it FOR FREE, too.
>>495417091Looks like its taking so long to host a turn that its getting killed by the hang detector.
