The Wheel has turned once againBased Pelagia Chads 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Our pastebin (extremely outdated)https://pastebin.com/wjbSA98Y (embed)>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.org>Sloop’s Comfy Balance Modhttps://docs.google.com/document/d/1zeDyK8Zb_p4lIJ0yp3a3ikMprRkmBCWvy31_4jBen3Q/edit?usp=sharingPrevious Pantokrator >>499341241

for the warham game I just make my pretender using the latest version of sombre? I don't see the mod showing up in my list otherwise
>>499921383the way it works now is weirdit might not show up in your listjust open the lobby and it will automatically load the mod. then go back to the tendie making screen and the mod should still be loadedif you go to the mod screen it will say one mod is activated but none of them will be selectedsomething to do with blitzserver I think
ANNOUNCEMENT FOR ANYONE WHO MISSED IT: Therodos anon is a massive pussy faggot who wouldn't host the gigablitz game he was going to host because somebody entered the lobby as Pelagia. This means you should ALWAYS play Pelagia if you see him in a game you're joining, or just kick him from the lobby if you're the host and don't care to deal with him.
>>499922196Based. He was already a faggot anyway. Even blitzmin called him out for being a whiny nigger not that long ago.
'cado blitz
>>499922196*somebody entered the lobby as pelagia specifically to attack him and only him and then go AIboth players seem pretty weak for this

>>499947017Want to play a quick game of pretend? I'll start.I'm joining a game of Dominions 6. Hmm, I guess I'll play Therodos like always.Oh look, someone joined as Pelagia.Guess I'll just ragequit, tell /domg/ I don't have time to play, and stick around to shitpost for 4+ hours.Now you go. What do you want to pretend, Anonymous?
>>499948026Hmm, I will play UlmOh I spawned between two mountainsI will go AII was going to win anyway
>>499941741YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>499948026let me get this straight, if you knew that in an isolated situation like underground or underwater you would be up against your worst counter and that person only joined to fuck up you in particular and then go ai, and you dont feel like playing a different nation, you would play out that scenario knowing you wont come out on top, you wont be a contender for the win at all, and youre just giving that nigger cunt the satisfaction of fucking you over?you would do that? instead of doing anything else with your time, even shitposting on 4chan being a better use of your time?
>>499949452play a different nation
>>499949261zoomer retard having a stroke>>499948783totally the same thing yeah, super perfect analogy my retarded friend
>>499949806how about i just don't play at all.oh, then the thread will go insane because they need papa therodos to host their gigablitz because you can't do it yourself for some reason
>>499950042>picks cancerous nation>gets salty when people calls out your bullshit
>>499949870retards are retards, but you are actually the thread clown
>>499952120so true. im the thread clown, not lets say the nigger who joins a game to ruin one player in particular and then go ai, thats not the clown.anyway, im never organising a game again. little children have to learn now how to do it themselves without papa therodos.niggers
>>499952464
>the niggeranon i think there's like a bunch of people joining your games just to fuck with you
>>499953156look, the nigger can draw pictures
>>499953493but those people play the game to win, not to fuck over one player in particular and then go ai
just caught up to the drama lmao, why does bro act like his only two options are playing therodos or not playing at all. don't tell me he only knows how to play one nation...
>>499953638you can't?
>>499954968Nah man, I may be black but I'm also japaneseand I'm closer to being aryan than your ass
>>499952464>without papa therodos.Good fucking riddance.
>>499955232everyone saw the good riddance, 3 player blitz, so good
>>499952464What a raging faggot. Nigger, you play one of the most cancerous fucking nations to play against, you don't get to complain that people got tired of your niggery and started counter picking.
>>499955716oh my fucking god are you that retarded that you cant see the problem with someone creating a scenario where its an isolated 1v1 just to fuck over a particular player and then go ai?as opposed to people playing the game normally, jesus fucking christ i dont give a shit if i get coalitioned and im reduced to my cap ring or whatever.in any case, if you look back to when the shitstorm began, all i did was say im leaving because i cant be arsed subjecting myself to the pelagia nigger and i couldnt be arsed to play a different nation at the time. so really this is all you niggers crying over me not hosting the game. its all you crying and me ridiculing you. gg no re you fucking niggers im going to sleep.
>>499956054>fuck over a particular player aYou play Therodos, your mere presence in the game is already fucking over everyone else, so yes I don't have any problem with Pelagia being based and getting rid of your faggot ass.
>>499956190going ai. so based. joining a game just go ai. not to play the game to compete for the win but joining with the ultimate goal of going ai.so based. fucking zased!!!!!
Victory!GG Marignon and Ermor
Ah, damn. I blissfully ignored that pond throne hoping it wouldn't be relevant, but it had the cave connection. Good game.
>>499956317Absolutely, he is sacrificing himself to get rid of cancer, very based.
>>499956457I had still not claimed it yet, I truly just got lucky from the random Throne destruction while holding one to the northwest of my cave entrance/exit. Granted, I had an H3 there the turn that I won, but whatever it easiliy could have gone the other way and Ermor could have won as they held a throne of their own.
>Scabiel warped in on my throne and splatted it instantlySo that's what did it, stupid beetle. I thought I'd be safe for a bit after killing pinhead.
GGmarignon bros were not eating this time...
>>499956731I had the advantage of letting you and Ermor fight while I consolidated in the caves below>>499956730No kidding. Well, I guess it was smart for me to ditch my siege of that fort in two ways, then.picrel my stupid bless
>>499956054All I'm hearing is you wanted the UW all to yourself so people can't get you and realizing you'd have competition underwater was too much for you. In other words, you're only interested in playing if you can attack other players while being mostly immune to attack yourself. Trying to misconstrue it as wow he joined just to fuck my game ignores how you yourself wanted to be the watery menace fucking with everyone else with no fear of retaliation. Good riddance.
>>499956054Loser.
My plan was to maximize the number of demon jaguars and also allow my Sun Guides to have more freedom of movement than their 14 map move normally allows. In reality I did not use the +6 map move very much, although when combined with the Con 5 +6 map move +3 reinvig boots let me move valued commanders around incredibly quickly. Due to a quirk in the cave map every single cave exit led to one overworld province, with two of them leading from the caves directly to the underwater temple that was an isolated pond. Marignon and Ermor had already begun warring by the time I was scouting out the overworld in earnest and as I had the caves to myself I decided to take them over and lay low until the time was right to strike out for the overworld. Unfortunately I ended up pretty much in between Ermor and Marignon, and ended up aggravating both of them from raids and attacks into attacking me instead of each other, more or less, though they were still fighting on borders of their own. It took me a long time to locate the thrones, and had secured 2, had the 3rd underwater and at my disposal to take via underwater units, and found the 4th. Then the Apocalypse hit and my underground Throne was taken by AI, and my 'surprise' assault against Ermor's held Throne failed to get enough siege points to storm before they reinforced, but I ended up winning from luck of the throne destruction draw. I can't say I did anything particularly special this game, I gained a lot of momentum from my two opponents warring before I needed or wanted to, but it was still not an easy W and was from luck as much as anything else.
>>499956054Bro getting trauma from MS paint game
>>499959251I was just skirmishing Ermor half the game, fucked my research, then moved whatever I had left against bats.Funnily enough Ermor was still attacking me even after you basically beheaded whatever offensive ability I had by taking White Peaks and the provinces in that circle, so I couldn't really muster anymore troops until late game.
>>499959919I wish I had not moved so aggressively against you and provoked such a response, I would have rather just taken some territory and hung around while you two continued to fight. But you were actually pressuring me, which is not much of a surprise since I took the fortress only a few spaces away from your capitol. I really liked your bless that was, dare I say, honest
>>499941741>>499956054>jesus fucking christ i dont give a shit if i get coalitioned and im reduced to my cap ring or whateverAll you do is shuffle freespawn around and AI. Try bringing mages next time, and welcome to /domg/
>>499960536I also learned how useless province defence is when 20-30 hastati can just clear 20 def provinces, really better off getting a few knights and a priest to sit on that province.
should've dumped luck, removed unaging and sneaked in some extra str for knights or reinvig for my magessome grand masters still came out old and the real workhorse was the humble witch hunter anyway
>>499959251Oh damn, the underground was a lot bigger than I thought. I continuously forgot every turn to send scouts down thereI made a couple big mistakes against you, first one was believing that I could brute force through your defense on the overworld throne with bane fire spam (I couldn't, I would have needed firestorm with my tools on hand to clear that skellyspam). I also should have massed up a waterbreathing force to grab that OW throne by my cap, but I was lazy and wanted to leave it until I had a geared elemental royalty to clear it, which was very game losing of me.>>499959919>Ermor was still attacking me even after you basically beheaded whatever offensive ability I hadI was mostly sending blobs of troops at you to hold you down and funnel more income to me while holding back my mages for fights with Xib at that point. Given the hellwarish nature of a tiny blitz, I never felt like I should stop.>>499961372I'm really glad I had retiarius this game, your knights would have rolled right over me if I didn't have those 10g 22 piercing guys to cost effectively trade. Those gladiators really give the roman nations a big leg up over a lot of worse human rosters who would crumple to anyfort knights.
Blitz?
>>499966028Sure thing man. In as therodos.

Why can't I twiceborn my tendie anymore?
Noob question.If a unit has multiple attacks, does it use one attack at random per turn or does it use all of them?
>>499976338All of them.
I tried subsribing to some mods on the workshop and some of them have multiple versions, so I just enable the most recent version. In the case of PIC RELATED which one would I want enabled?>>499977581Okay thanks.

Oh i didn't set the research to easyI was wondering why this was taking so god damn long
>>499962557I think you don't bother with mage bless on Mari. If you want communion power, get a shaman, slap a matrix on and let him cast regen. You should already have e2 for e power.
>>499976303illfraud decided that twiceborning and transforming your pretender was too fun and fantastical, so they disabled itmaybe next patch they'll increase the affliction rate on pretenders, for realism or something

>>499988258>/vg/
>>499986979Probably not.
i wish i had joined the warhammer gamei thought i didnt have time but i forgot i have no life or hobbies
I think its ogre for me xib.You got a H3 that can take that throne?
>>499989893Yes I dew
>>499990357End it all then.
>>499990426gg..Why didn't you take over the cave places you had, blitzmin sama..You had me beat but I got to keep throwing random units and blood communions at you until it worked
>>499990660It was all over but the hissing once I realised that I didn't have any mountains to summon unfrozen at. I simply lost the will to live and the only option was hibernation and wait for the next pankobowl with the hope that the interim pantokrator would make me some mountains to use.
>>499991041Xib is the graphs working for you? They're visible to me.
>>499988704
>>499991175Yeah they were confirming my suspicions, that it was my income that let me push through. My pretendie killing a bunch of guys while having that eye killing shield helped too but then he died lel I hate moving tendies around outside of my capitol for this reason but I wanted to give it a shot and he helped take over the underworld so whatever
Does population just keep going up infinitely or is there some sort of soft cap?
>>499991041<3 gg gn snekmin

>>499994003imagine how based our badmin would be if he kicked him and restarted
>>499994379if he staleshe gets kicked
>>499991041What makes unfrozen so cool? You really like those niggas but I've never used them.
>>499997672You (can) get upwards of 100 of the troops and its not terribly uncommon to get two of the mages. The economics of it alone are outstanding but with spectres losing E for G the earth magic makes a great sell all on its own. Requiring water gems to cast, which is both relatively reliable to acquire and not particularly high contention makes it a superb bread and butter ritual.
>>499998369I see, right on. I'll give it a go one of these days. I usually (not in every case, but usually) don't get good bang for my buck with summoned creatures. They cost a lot of gems and usually die quickly without a lot of kills to show for it. I'm probably doing something wrong. Rus' bears are one notable exception and there are others.

>>500005074>1The amount of enjoyment you can get in singleplayer is limited once you learn the game, but the multiplayer is slow paced, low stress and free of metafaggotry.>2The game is full of content and most of it is garbage. Learning what actually works requires extended immersion, testing, talking to and aping more experienced players.>3The single most important stage of the game is expansion, which we loosely define as the first 12 turns (in-game year). Learning what your nation of choice needs to expand effectively against which kinds of independent defenders is your ticket to success. Owning 15 provinces and having two forts under construction by turn 12 is a good minimum, but good expansions of 20+ provs are very possible and some bullshit can get you 25+. Many experienced Dominions players are bad expanders, and learning to expand well will not only give you an edge against them, it's also the only element of multiplayer you can practice outside of the game (the first 12 turns is mostly fighting independent AI provinces and only encountering one or two neighboring players, so the expansion you achieve practicing in singleplayer is usually only slightly more optimistic than what that pretender build would achieve in multiplayer).>4Rely heavily on the inspector>https://larzm42.github.io/dom6inspectorand the manual>https://www.illwinter.com/dom6/dom6manual.pdf
>>500005823Very helpful
>>500005074The advice to just pick a nation that seems cool is solid. They're all different and mostly fun to play so just figure out what works. Once you've beaten the AI once then just go ahead and jump in multiplayer. You'll be ready for it at that point imo even though you'll still certainly lose.
>>500005715He's a whiny asshole who can't take what he dishes out. I honestly had no problem with him until his behavior yesterday. His choice of nation certainly isn't the problem.
Another noob question.By 'squad' it means the entire group/formation/row of units under a commander right?
>>500006229I didnt notice any annoying behavior when I played with him last except taking a lot of time per turn in a blitz
>>500006845Yeah, one of those rows is a squad. You can have multiple squads per commander based on their leadership stat (and extra morale/unlocking formations when the stat is 100+).
>>500007162Read the last thread
>>500006845Yeah the squad is one lump of units.
After playing Metaphor, it makes me wish that Illwinter would design some monsters after Bosch
>>500007423Leave that to AetherNomad.
>>500007284>>500007379Alright thanks.Do the effects of multiple standard-bearers stack? Wondering if I should train a few.
>>500007537iirc standards don't stack and only the highest value in the squad is used. But it's worthwhile to add in 2 or 3 just in case one gets hit by a stray arrow or something.
>>500007537>Do the effects of multiple standard-bearers stackNo, but the redundancy is good to have since they're on the frontline and liable to die. I usually train 1 with each turn's batch of units and end up with a few per line when I play nations with them.
>>499347754nah that's me and I quit therodos because I got owned by agartha several times. I became the (ironic) anti agartha shill for a while and now I complain about needing to buff abysia. Thank you for reading my dominions character arc

Is this type of map that I've been seeing a lot back in 5 handmade or is it generated?

>>500018397no

>>500025493Retiarii and gladiators will make every single hellbless rush think twice
>>500025606There's always a monthly dramaAt least with domg the drama is funny
>>500025716what about statue rushes and other big prot that gladiators cant deal with
>>500025879statues are dormant, thats when your dormant blesses should come online and you can send your lictors to take care of that
>>500025879How many squares can a statue kill per turn?How many skeletons can you summon per turn with 6 mages?
>>500025958you also have a statue of your own if you want one
>500 hours in this game>just now learned pretenders don't count as sacred for purposes of being able to build a templeWtf niggas. So when I'm rushing the sea as Jomon I need to have in mind that I need to give one of my human priests a ring of water breathing or something before I can do ryujins?
>>500026235Just prophetize a commander from your lake nigga
>>500025958i usually just take undying so maybe ill grab withering next time
>>500026235building a temple to yourself is a bit cringe m8
>>500026336Oh yeah, that's probably a lot easier but I still have my land prophet alive. Good that I'm ironing these things out in a test game eh? My expansion has been good at least.What do you guys think of Jomon's sacreds? I'm not impressed but my bless is just hard skin for my tendie.
>>500026973cant you sudoku your prophet by disbanding him somehow or is prophet not allowed to be dismissed
>>500027018I don't think you can dismiss any commander, can you? I think you have to sudoku them in battle. That's what I do with feebleminded mages. Put them in front of everything else and let them Leeroy Jenkins it.
>>500027816turn them into lycanthropes lol

>90g, 8rp, sacred labrat that's useless in battle>220g, 12rp mageIn this situation, when do you amass the labrat for research purposes? When you've got tons of forts?When I'm playing nations with a similar choice I usually spam the fuck out of the more expensive mages when I need early research, later on if I'm not dead I spam the cheap researchers to potentially free my useful mages for combat and any site searching I haven't done.Do you do things differently?
>>500036392What's the labrat and we'll argue if it's useless or not in battle
>>500035424No! >:)
>>5000366371WArguably better use than most labrats due to frozen heart but still.
>>500036189Hmm now that you mentioned it I wanted a tendie that had astral and the one dom 3 was the Morrigan but they were 300... isn't it better to just pay the 40+ for the new path lol
>>500036775Yeah that's not a useless labratYou should recruit a bunch of them for how cheap they will be on your wallet until turn 12
>>500036880The Morrigan in particular is awful in terms of cost>picking it means you pay the trinity tax>picking it means you pay the titan tax>picking it means you have to pay the astral tax or risk getting magic dueled
are stealthy units in my own provinces invisible to enemy scouts?
>>500037587I was following the advice of the fomorian veteran and I ended up with the three girls imprisoned, D5W4E2A4 weightless+ far caster + precision bless and tons of druids to shoot orb lighting but I never saw them with the extra range...I will look for another tendie that goes better with "fomoria does not need to expand with an awake tendie" but I like huge gods too much! Are you expecting me to pick pic related? Come on man
>>500038089Yes
>>500038089>>500039510Unless of course your opponent is wise to your elfniggerdom and puts some eyes of the void on their scouts. Pretty sure that works.
anyone wanna blitz?
>>500040914I'm down for a blitz
>>500038325goatman is alright as a rainbow
>>500038325My goal is to cast gates of horn and ivory and well of misery as globals and wailing winds and/or dance of the morrigans as combat so I want my tendie with at-least this magic... Of course this also allows me for soul vortex, invulnerability and others that I already know, but I am really weak with what blesses I can have.If I go Fomor god king I can make him W2 and make the blesses swimming, cold & shock resistance.>>500042667I thing that would be the case... should I just go for it? +10 is basically free points towards blessing after all

Alright guys. If I've got a rainbow tendie with S5 and some other shit in a province with 25 F1S1 niggas and I make them all cast communion slave and my pretender casts communion master.... That means my astral AND fire paths are boosted? My pretender doesn't have fire on his own.Also what should I do next after that? I'm retarded and don't understand communions.
How do you submit a pretender on >>500044976 here friend? I have the pirated copy from cs.rus only desu
>>500049149Communions only boost the paths you have, it won't give you any extra ones. Also 25 slaves for one dude is extreme overkill, try to balance it some more
>>500049745What's the right amount of kill?
>>500049181never played mp before? you go to network, type in games.beta.blitzserver.net then in the next prompt the number for the port in this case 10102
>>500049931It depends unfortunately
>>500050275God damn it. I'm too brainlet for this mechanic. So in this case my tendie will only get a boost to astral? Nothing else? Not even sure how to use that desu.
>>500050404soulslaysoulslaysoulslaysoulslaysoulslayusually, why?
>>500049931If most of your mages have the same paths (if masters cast from a path the slaves don't have it results in increased fatigue for the slaves) then you can cut it pretty close to even, maybe slightly less masters than slaves. HOWEVER, if you cast a self buff with a master all of the slaves will receive it. This means that if you have earth magic you can give them reinvigoration, and if you have nature magic you can give them regeneration. In these cases you can go for a more lopsided communion. As a matter of fact it's encouraged in one nation (Niefelheim) because you have a sacred regenerating big boy sabbath slave and nature magic which results in them taking a regeneration bless and casting regeneration in the sabbath and only needing 2-4 slaves for any amount of masters
>>500050081... I know I can put passwords on SP games but passwords on tendies? Can you *also* explain that to me pelase
>>500050546I do have soul slay. What does a higher astral path do to help? Also does that target commanders? If I'm just soul slaying random niggas that doesn't seem very useful.
>>500050572I am so confused by this lmao
>>500051006This sorta stuff. If the Master casts Powers all the slaves also get the +1 fire, with the corresponding fatigue bonuses. Earth power in particular gives reinvirgoration +4 which is a lot and since over-fatigue starts to kill people regeneration is good because that keeps them alive for longer if they go over-fatigue.That means that you can go crazy like 4 masters 5 slaves and they will survive
>>500051006If a communion slave reaches 200 fatigue they will start taking damage based on the fatigue they're receiving. In a long battle this will eventually result in death. Reinvigoration will increase the time before they reach this point and regeneration will heal the damage they take past 200 fatigue. For other paths you can also boost the level of the slaves' paths to reduce their fatigue as higher path level = less fatigue. Conversely if you cast a high path requirement spell and your slaves have a lower level of that path they will take increased fatigue damage. So for fire and astral you'll want to cast phoenix power (fire) and power of the spheres (astral) to boost the slaves' paths
>>500022457as opposed to being a faggot like you?
>>500017640nigger
havent been here in a while. what happened to storm flight lanka anon?
>>500052349He somehow still pops up once or twice a week to make weirdo posts and accuse everyone who has an issue with what he's saying of being the same person
>>500052260Rude, crude, and uncalled for.
You can always give it a read, anon who asks about the communion. I wish the document was better written. In fatigue distribution it says "divided by the number of participants" but it would be better if it said it's divided by the number of slaves. Also i am not sure about the calculation for fatigue modification. It says it's lower or higher depending on the SKILL LEVEL of the slave v/s the master and it does not consider the PATH LEVEL of the spells casted... If you guys say that no, it depends on the spell and not on the mage per se, I believe you. I trust players more than the guy that makes the game. For dominions at least.
>>500053594Yeah I feel like I'm mostly fairly competent at this game by now but this is giving me a headache. My autism isn't strong enough.
>>500054820teach me how to put passwords on my tendies for MP

>>500058462Well yeah, when the AI gets like +225% gold they're gonna build temples absolutely everywhere.
>>500058630make it stop
>>500049931Usually you communion up to boost mages to cast high level spells or to turbo and generate infinite fatigue for your masters. Lot of mages with a smattering of low level paths but blood or astral are a lot more useful in a communion also, since a lot of strong spells are available only at path 2+.Like an A1/S1 mage can cast fog warriors with 4 comm slaves for example, that would be a good use of a communion especially for a nation that lacks native air. I'm in a game right now where I'm casting foul vapours using a jade sorceress with a matrix and some lizard shamans as slaves as a non-astral non-nature non-water nation.You can also stack HP, HP regen, healing, and reinvig on a few slaves to have them serve as infinite batteries for a given amount of masters depending on how much your slaves can handle and what your masters are casting. Masters in this setup basically never fatigue out so long as you set up everything properly and don't overload them. The fatigue calculations vary a lot so not really a rule of thumb to give for ratios in a turbo, depends on mage paths of those involved and they spells they're casting.
>>500058291Even LA Atlantis can worship the dog lol
>looking for a new nation to try>oh cool, Bandar Log has different caponly and offcap sacreds. I'll try a stupid meme incarnate and test expansion>look at their conj spell tab>more unique summons than the next dozen nations combined, I've never seen any of these units before>tons of sacred troops and mages that can break into whatever paths I wantI mean it's cool, but what the hell. It's the same feeling I got with Rus, where I feel Illfraud got inspired making a relatively new nation line and packed half a continent's worth of mythology into them while leaving the older ones with their crumbs of flavor. I mean sure, obviously not every nation can have a sacred summon focus, but it's not like Bandar has dogshit scales troops unlike Nazca or whomever.
>Khorne turned>didn't do a doubleshould I remove him and restart?

>>5000559854 players for oneage sloop blitz anyone else? should we wait for 5?
>>500063149Bandar shares its summons with Kailasa/Lanka/Patala though. There is a huge discrepancy between national spells though you're right. The secret is Bandar's recruitables are kind of ass, but they blossom lategame with huge summon swarms.

ok blitz starting ill set the turn timer to 6 mins after everyone has submitted first turn
>>500063892>shares its summons with Kailasa/Lanka/Patala thoughYeah, that's what I figured when I said a new nation line, through the ages. Bandar can summon the Yaksha and Naga of the earlier/later ages too, so they have even more than their ancestors/predecessors.>The secret is Bandar's recruitables are kind of assI dunno man, sacred cav plus 16 dmg longbow and 27 dmg cudgel scales troops is an alright lineup already. They definitely don't need an awake expander to function unlike some other choice MA nations I won't name.
>>500065948we game?Ok I played a turn and ended it. My first time doing turns so I unno what to do next :o
>>500063589Odds are they're classified as Germanic by Illwinter instead of "Northern".
>>500017640The adoption of the exaggerated idpol smokescreen by every major power in society, and in particular the sacred cowification of the pavement ape and the ludicrous taboo on the word 'nigger', means that 4chan, ground zero for contrarianism and zero-consequence expression, VILL spam nigger whenever possible.It's usually retarded, out of context, tired and just as pointless as any other time an edgy 14yo has screamed nigger, but that's just where society has led us, nigger.
>>499927631>HeijouI remember playing that mod in AI and having them constantly drop gates in random places then realizing I can't spam them in every province due to the unrest.How does it play in a real game?
Ok I understand how turns work in blitz. This is exciting.
>>500067446Is this your first blitz? I'm excited for you. It's too late for me (again).

>be savage orc boy>double the mass of the average indie barbarian (who has 12 str)>11 strnot very gorky or morkythey are super cheap but some humans with hammers being stronger is funny
>>500072208i wrecked um, it takes a lot of willpower to keep fighting from your cap even with an awake but it is shameful tsk tsk -frost giants
>>500066915>Spirit GatesYou're right. Gates are a trap, the unrest and the freespawn essentially make it so you have a permanent money drain in exchange for a chaff trickle that can't fight anything. The sprites are cool though. I also made the gates and suffered for the rest of the game because of it.>Spirit trees Insanely good, though. Freespawn no-upkeep kodama who, while inept at researching, are still really good due to the magic scales.Even with order scales, I hemorrhaged money all game. Uji, their horsemen, come in with magic bows and good melee stats so I primarily used them which was likely a mistake due to their costs.Their communion fodder mages are fantastic with each having a free bird in battle and sacred status meaning they're affordable, potent and easy to mass up. Limited to air, death and water which does enough, even if the lack of fire access means no fire arrows. Ultimately, while I beat modded Fomoria's player in a few large battles, his AI replacement was beating my ass for the rest of the game. My demilich with soul drain did all of the work against Hagia, mostly just catching him off guard with teleports.
>>500072765Orcs are about 6 ft to 8 ft tallThem being weaker than barbarians makes sense when you realize that they were born literally 2 weeks agoCompare that to a human militia has 9 str
>>500073391Damn I thought they were taking longer than that. It makes sense then, guess they're pretty close to their 40k mushroom cousins.
>>500072765orc boyz were S3 for most of the 90's to 00's in both fantasy and 40k
>>500072870My pretender. Should have taken neutral death/growth and went Dormant, I think. I like the bless for communion survivability, but reinvigoration would have probably been better instead of enchanted blood. Had a lot of maimed communion members by the end of it. Blood was a total waste as well.
>>500074021>awake demilich>trash scales>shit blesswtf is this anon
>>500074204Funny garbage.
>>500065073>bats like caves?honestly I think its a glitch with the maphave fun being unkillable I guess
>>500073713Everyone thinks all orcs are massive 8 ft tall behemoths because in art those are the ones who actually got shit doneAlso commonly they're too busy killing each other before, during, AND after battles that surviving more than 3 fights is a case of doing stupid well for an orc
Are Fantasy Orcs even confirmed to be fungi like the 40k ones?I always thought that it was never confirmed nor denied.
This is CTis in bEAt_your_mEAt. I just wanted to say that Therados is a weak little whiner. Run and hide, I'll fight Atlantis for you.Go suck on a fish.
>>500075279only speak when spoken to, nigger
>>500075203It's basically all but confirmed that they're orky boyz
>>500075279It's a shame since I was on relatively good terms with Therodos before the meltdown. I was scared of his fart dog.
>>500076228Actually finish a game ... loser. You lost HA HA HA HA.
>>500076473Thanks for the reply that tells me nothing.
I am so dissapointed on my first blitz...
>>500079832Yeah, hellblessed giants can rush for thrones in a way most others can't and close out the game early. 4 players is pretty small, more players would make the match more granular and last longer.
>>500079832its a high skill ceiling game, what was the idea with the bless? it seemed pretty weak
>>500079832It's how every blitz goes bro. People fuck around and battle aimlessly until one guy nuts up and just rushes thrones.
Did berserker bless stack with a unit's innate berserk in 5? I just found out it does in 6
>>500081812yes
>>500080730I noticed the giants already held 3 thrones but I was bean attacked by Fomoria so there wasn't too much room to respond, gg both of yas
Is taking death in EA a stupid idea? Seems strange that there's two big death-themed nations, one of which having increased death limit, but taking death is a terrible idea on both of them unless you're doing a throne rush hellbless
>>500085343No it's not, death has a lot of good spells and fear. Not to mention that you need it for some of the national spells.
>>500086201I meant death scales
>>500086303>Not cornmaxxing
>>500086303Ohh. Eh, death scales are more or less free in dom 6 anyway. Unless you play pangea or another nation that would like to have forests, you can always dump it for 80 points without hurting your economy much.
>>500086519I was looking at my capital income with only death 1 and the drop was pretty significant
>>500086738I doubt that. Did you have max turmoil too or something?
>>500086869I had 1 turmoil 2 sloth, I was memeing with quickness berserker chud skinshifters and my capital was getting close to 300 income flat by the end of expansion testing
>>500087125Well, with those scales it's no wonder your income is shit.
>>500087434I knew my income would be shit but I was looking at the turn by turn income drop. Only now I'm thinking that I wasn't noticing my scales creeping in and attributed the income loss to popkill
Death scales hurt income it is true. If you want to dump something, go swords and get a four leaf clover or go hard on temperature
>>500080847my bless was ass indeed. Problem is that with air, death & glamour there is nothing special... reanimators maybe?
>>500084270Yeah, I should've played atenttion to thrones and decided to attack the giants.
>>500091419fear and dread are such OP bullshit they're commonly banned outside of domg
>>500091990Yea! Which are top blesses from glamour and death and I have to use something else...
>what if Nature sissies wanted some globals but Fire chads said noI did want to cast this spell for a while and, oh my, play with dispel into GoH followed up with Ordeal worked even better than I expected. It even took out Oak!

>>500095076what's your bless yomi?
>>500096236Mid by disciple spark standards. Figured Fire Shield x Fateweave should be funny on giants.
>>500096615>Yomi Team LeaderSurprised you weren't stopped by poverty.
>>500097063National income penalty doesn't affect your disciples, actually. Didn't help them much: Muspel suffers from national Cold preference (like 5 scale shifts of penalty, yikes) and Hinnom enjoys his innate wasteland capital -1% growth. That's on good roll: at times it spawns wasteland+mountain for 1.2%.I even went for some growth (more like just not dumped death) for his blood econ but in the end...Rlyeh spreads unrest, Nid drops plagues, Lemurian tendie keeps spawning tart attacks month after he went AI, Nazca redirects enough hurricanes around so some hurricanes now don't deal pop damage because those provs are popkilled by fucking Gale Gate of all spells. Oh, and then there faux underdark lite via dwarves of four directions.Add some old good Misf2 to the mix and now you're cooking.I'm under 2k by turn 70 and in top3 by income. What a hell of lobby! I pity people who need more than 700g once per two turns.
big game when
Simply MA Pyrene go do your turn dude.
One of the tips is that a soulless reanimated in a province with a recent battle will be better armed but, how does that works? Does the game tracked who died last turn? Does it only depends on unburied corpses?
>>500102609I've never tried this actually
>>500102609Yes, if there's corpses around then animate dead can produce soulless warriors with weapons and stuff. If not, you can only get basic bitch longdead. This also works if units die during the battle.
>>500103734soulless reanimation only works at all if there are corpses in the prov, it never produces longdead
>>500103734But does that apply to the priest soulless?
>>500095848Oh, thinking water will protect you? Not so fast!Fire resist will, though...
>>500105490Damn, it's unclear from the cut, but that's UW! Imagine burning to death in water, ha.
>>500043154If you really like titans then go ahead, fomorian god king isn't that bad.I prefer the goat with blesses for druids (and sometimes stygian flesh for barghests).

But just in case you guys didn't know, I can in fact view individual responses and see that, for example, all the respondents that voted for Storm Flight Enjoyer also voted for Goat Pussy.
>>500106113giants of both flavours, yes but with death, air & glamour I can't find a good bless for them. That goat pisses me off but great blesses, I can imagine orb lighting being so effective
>>500043459>>500111858def is the worst sort of bless on giants because of how much harass they takefor a ADG giant bless, bless rankings go Fear > Dread > Awe and the rest is pretty much ass except for utility stuff, or Obfuscate if you want to go in on stealthy raiding and uncatchable cloud trapeze thugs (probably not worth it)
>>500112496certanly, but those are the blesses that tend to be banned or will be nerfed in the near future so I better get used to playing without them

How to defend a naba rush as sceleria
>>500132019Try not to cry. Then cry a lot.
>>500132019gas him with your drakon or mulch him with your ant lion or scare him with your reforming flesh dracolich, or blend him with your shock and fire resistant lictors who you cast body ethereal on>but I didn't take any of thosethen you lost in pretender creation, but at least you'll die "innovatively"
>>500133376can lictors really beat his giant troops? even with body ethereal it seems like a tough ask
>>500132019Depends on how much scale naba has. If it's archer spam and camel spam, good luck. If it's heavy bless then skelly spam can work. Not great, but works. Watch out for thugs though
>>500133576yes, regular dudes with giant axes and high attack are the ultimate counter to giants with shields and they're your best counter besides gladiator spamtheir weakness is having no protection except their plate armor and getting instantly decapitated by scimitar head hits, but that's what body ethereal is for, and body ethereal is at its most valuable on glass cannons like them
>>500133576They can't. Ethereal is a meme. Ignite arrow is a ench2 spell, and they have cheap recruit everywhere bows. And even if they don't do that just mixing in a few fire mages will kill your lictors with evos.
>>500137024>lictors>not having fire resforget na'ba, how were your skellingtons going to deal with fire eles?
I'm testing dispelling astral corruption (wanted to see if the dispeller would die) and it's working despite only putting like 100 astral in despite 200-300 overcast bloodslaves. Is this shit bugged?

>>500137764alright cool, failing to dispel it summons a doom horror which is awesome haha
Just caught up on the therodos vs pelagia shitI fucking kneel to Pelagiachad, saving /domg/ from another popkill (uw nigger edition) nation.If you can't handle the heat then don't play rushbait nations that no one likes to deal with.
>>500142910Based. It's okay to be a troll until you become a crybaby about being counter-trolled.
>>500142910so based of pelagiachad to grief a player and then go ai.im sure if this happened to you you would fucking kneel and suck his cock as well like the little cuck faggot you are.
>>500145151>play blitz>gets blitzed>woooooooooooooooooooooooow!
>>500145674whats your point right now? are you trying to say that the self-proclaimed griefer didnt actually grief?
>>500142910>>500143408i think we should start a /domg/ tradition where we all join games to fuck over one player in particular and then go ai so we can all be as based as based pelagiachad.
>>500148019False equivalence, but nobody is stopping you from doing this.
>>500137357Fire eles can be killed by bolts. It's up to them to pick conj or evo or ench as a rush path and your job to pick a counter path
>>500149123false equivalence how?
>>500149951Because most players don't play the same popkill UW troll nation in EVERY GAME EVERY TIME and then shit their pants crying about how unfair it is to finally, at long last, be countered. Countering you was a specific case with a specific reason.
>>500150803Whatever the case may be, you have got to give credit to Therodos Anon for playing the supposed "garbage-tier" nation so proficiently that the entire thread unites in a lynching campaign against him.
>>500152123There's nothing proficient about winning a blitz with an UW nation, when half the thrones are underwater or on the coast.
>>500152368So then Therodos isn't garbage at all?
>>500152446No. Never was. But domg has a discord tier hate boner for both UW and popkill nations, so obviously the one that combines both is going to be a big target.
>>500152123The problem is Theorodos anon bitching about being targeted while not doing any changes to his strategy. Why would i not be countered if i just do what i do for months and everyone knows about my schtick?
>>500153370you see he can't troll landfags as effectively if he picks something that counters pelagia
>>500153370i didnt bitch about that at all.i only started bitching and insulting and ridiculing you when you started calling me a waterpussy faggot. you started the bitching, not me, lets be clear on that point.i did try something different against pelagia in the previous blitz but it didnt work out. and this time i just didnt feel like trying again, or playing a different nation.so i said that, and then of course the pelagia "chad" starts making taunting posts, and then other faggots jump in and call me a pussy and faggot.that is what incited me to sperg out. and why should i remain calm and stoic or whatever anyway while you throw insults around? im not a robot. you want to start a shitstorm, fine youve had your shitstorm.anyway, im mentally recovered from that and i will actually keep playing therodos because i like the nation. i regret now that i went ai in all my therodos games in a fit of rage and i apologise for going ai in the /domg/ game but i wont apologise for calling you niggers.i will host a gigablitz again on saturday if nobody else does and i wont bail and if pelagia joins ill try something new, giving the griefer the benefit of the doubt, compassionate as i am.
>>500133376>>500133576>>500134067Can't you just use gladiators? Those things mulch everything that isn't anakites, it's defending against a rush, not actually pushing so the attrition doesn't matter
>>500154469>i didnt bitch about that at all.see >>499920349 >>499920354
>>500152123I'm the fag you just replied to - I always did give him credit for that. I like when I or someone else can learn how to play a character/nation in any game that supposedly sucks. Where he lost me was how he reacted when the tables were turned. Now I just see him as a faggot.

>>500154469If you can't control your emotions over a dumb video game, you really are a massive man babyYou got salty over a shit player who draws shitty tiddies chicken scratches making a fool out of youPeople like humility here, not ivory tower spergs who calls everyone he doesn't like a nigger for being knocked down a peg or two
>>500154469I'm one of the people who was giving you shit and I'll accept this, compassionate as I am. Just don't back out when Pelagia does show up. Still no need to call us all niggers though man. This game and general is probably one of the whitest little sub-communities on 4chan, for better or worse. (I think it's for worse and hope we have a blackfag in here because it's funny to think about)
>>500157031Black and Asian :^)
>>500157031Why would this general be better or worse based on its racial composition?
>>500157207He really cares about the players skin color as he's playing as a Chinese imperial beurocratic nation and a black dude is playing as an Irish nation
>>500157207Only if you're a racist and/or if you think a black autist playing an autism simulator mainly played by white guys is funny. I knew a black guy who had an impressive Großgermaniums in EU4 and it was kind of an "I kneel" moment irl.
>>500157207I'm not racist btw. Only the second part applies to me. Therodos anon doesn't like niggers though. He's made that pretty clear.
the only colour that matters in this general is the colour of your turns
>>500157657Based. Do your turns you dumb niggers.

>>500160370I'm not a drawfag but as it happens I have played Nanners more than once and I'm nursing a broken collarbone myself. Shit sucks. Careful on motorbikes, bros.
I was wonering: how much of a gameplay variety is there between different nations? In Conquest of Elysium, most countries had different playstyles: sometimes you had your units spawn in for free and you had to upgrade them, others relied on sacrificing villages, others relied on raising dead, etc. Here everyone i tried so far (not many to be fair) seems to have the same playstyle: take territory, get money, build forts, use money to recruit, get gems and research from the same list of spells, only difference being the unit list
>>500160679But are you a nappy-haired, rubber-lipped, flared nostrils, spear-chucking jigaboo?
when will he draw an ubar houri bros....
>>500160835Nah bro, can't say that I am.
>>500160370Ye I'm going to tackle the animation this week
>>500160831>take territory, get money, build forts, use money to recruit, get gems and research from the same list of spellsyes thats mostly what makes you stronger. but there are some nations that are much more reliant on gems than on gold and can stay small and focus on researching and still be strong.there are freespawn nations in dominions too, what i said above applies to them.and pretender creation determines very much how your game plays out. you can go for a strong bless and bad scales and focus on gaining advantages early on or the opposite. and anything in between.also for any given nation there are different viable research paths to go for, different units to play for, etc.gameplay variety may be less than in CoE but its there.
>>500161085Carry on then
>>500160831Well for one, everyone has the same resources (gems/slaves) and you have all your recruitables unlocked from the start. There's also standardized infrastructure for the most part.
>>500160835what the FUCK is a jigaboo
>>500161734boomer speak for n word
When the fuck is Hellenika coming outI want to play as the nerds
>>500161734Is Askjeeves out of order?
The n word has undergone some serious inflation and lost its value now that every election tourist says it every other word.I am at the point where I cringe at anyone who just haphazardly uses it to try and fit in.Thank you Therodos for curing my racism.

Bros I'm trying to get one of my friends into Dominions while it's on sale and he asked if I had a video to show him, and I don't. I'm an oldfag and I just never acquired the habit of watching annoying nerds jerking themselves off on YouTube. Even when I do look something up, there's a greater than 90% chance I find the host obnoxious. Crusty gay boomer complaining aside, does anybody have a good intro video that would be what my friend is asking for and make him want to play?

Does the AI cheat in Dom6? I just watched an AI claim a plot of land without having taken anything else around it to get there?
>>500162601There's a difference between election tourists using it and the actual way of using it, which is just as a generic insultIt's like calling someone a faggot, you're not actually accusing them of being gay (unless you are)
>>500162601Hello faggot. Go wash your stinky brown skin. :^)
>>500163368What nation is the AI, and context for this? Is it during a war? Remote attack spells can take poorly-defended provinces and 6-16 PD and elves can elf you
>>500163368I've seen it a few times in multiplayer too, I believe with high enough map move you can jump over hostile provinces
>>500163118Straight to the fuckin point, yeah, thanks bro.>>500163130This is good too
>>500163368In resources only depending on the difficulty afkDepending on which faction it was, there are mechanics that could explain the what you saw
holy shit la phlegra is a boring nation. no wonder i see nobody playing it.

Does dread and fear stack?
>>500168417different sources stack, yes
>>500168571Very good very good, yes. Now for the next question: is this a decent tendie for Mekone?
>>500168995No.
>>500169074Darn. What does it need to be good? I have no idea about the scales Mekone needs
>>500169186All the scales. But at the very least as much order and prod as possible. What they don't need is a big bless, since they have no sacred units anyway. Far caster is fine, but dread is a waste of points.
>>500169602Extremely bluepilled post. That bless is clearly for bottled polemarchs
>>500169602I was thinking that since you can fit 2 polemarches in a square you can stack 2 dreads. Also the sphinx has fear so maybe she can expand using effective 10 fear
>>500169904Mekone really has no problem expanding. The giant hoplites just walk through any indie army without losses.
>>500170096Yeah but more expansion is always good and it helps ensure I don't get cucked by too many bad fights for the hoplites
>>500170297You do you.
>>500170716I'm not brushing off your criticisms, I'm just remembering all the times that I've had to delay expansion just to skirt around barbarian/bone tribe provinces, often in my cap circle. Not that the sphinx would be able to take those, but she could help grab territory elsewhere
>>500145151nah I would bitch and whine and moanbut that doesn't make it not basedyour umbrella morality has no power here

>>500187036I think it's mainly just a spite spell it's not good. I've tried to make a plan work around it for 3+ games and it's just wasted my time and barely done more than assassins.
>>500187036it's debatably worth casting on your own provs so you can patrol it out, enslave it and use it as a light thug or backline diver, though keep in mind you need to commit a number of mages with penetration items to reliably catch it and it has a 15% chance of disappearing every turnfor its intended use, no, it stinks UNLESS you cast it at a prov with patrollers who are valuable but probably will still die to it, like an enemy blood hunting prov

>>500207835Just a matter of time, I can't wait to complain about that wave when it actually happens. On the plus side, we'll get more lolcows.
>>500217465I just said that the commanders are SCs
>>500217901You aren't allowed to answer my questions before I ask them
>>500217465Muspel jarls are one of the few true SCs still in the game yeah. The innate fire brand really takes them from meh tier to actually good.
>have a good ally>hes game leader>get scared >afraid he will attack me>cover his land in aids>dispel his global>form a secret coalition against him>he attacks mewtf dude i thought we were boys
>>500213240That's a large part of the fun of huge games though. Knowing far away from you and your current conflicts, there's still growing threats overseas you'll have to face one day...it's awesome. MAss was so cool because you'd regularly hear drama and gossip from players you hadn't even met and never would.
>>500212992'cado game
>>500218251yeah I totally get it not shitting on it, just not my cup of tea it makes the game stressful not being able to deal with a neighbor that's scaling crazy and makes me want to AI
>AIing from stressI only AI if it's boring, this game never stressed me
>>500218712you have a soibug mentality, the very thought of a giant chadderpillar eating all your leaves nearby makes you want to kill yourself in fearyou need to drag your giant cock into pretender creation and BECOME the crazy scaler who strikes fear into players who don't even neighbor you
>>500219134It can get stressful for me, in a slow game where I prepare and script for a big battle and I can't stop thinking during the work day about how it went and if I scripted it all correctly or if I made one dumb mistake that cost me the all my mages.
I had to learn to seperate my emotions from the game because I'd be soaring in the aether on a good turn and in the depths of misery on a bad one. It is easy for me to get attached to my little unit guys
>>500212992>9 already in like an hourIT'S HAPPENING
>>500225124it's the first game in dom6 to bring back BLACK SERVANTS, you know it's gonna be hyped
>>500219814>>500219721>>500219134I probably could have used a better word, I just meant that it feels less good to win in big games because I am worried about what the other guys are doing. Maybe my victory was too slow in a war, maybe I lost too much, maybe the tech I needed to beat this one guy is useless versus the next guy. That kind of stuff. It definitely adds a layer of complexity but I just dont want to plan that far ahead lol
Simply Ulm and Marimore likeSimply stop palming your hairy balls and do your turns
>>500227875Your odds of winning a 30-person game are at roughly 3%, if you assume you aren't going to win but want to take a good crack at it you will have a much better time

WHAT IS A SC FOR FUCKS SAKESTENdIE, CHASSIS, PRETENdER, GOd.... SC?????
>>500229776SuperCombatant, AKA someone that can solo armies when given gear and research
>>500229925and that's not a thug... I guess because thugs are disposable, thus the name.
How do I add passwords to existing tendies?
>>500230043If a SC dies then it was a heavy thug
The preliminary poll is over, now it's time for the main roster poll! The suggestions that got a chance to appear are Lewd Serpent Dancer, Goat Pussy, Honest/Dishonest and Xibalbrat, but they won't be on the team unless they get enough votes in the main poll. Also, in case you forgot them, here's a pic of the current roster. Don't worry about the black shorts clipping into the players. Poll link below:https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSchcGpbp4g61wDr5uQlLtUE9jxG7bwgAynvOOQwCT0E1M_UqA/viewform?usp=sf_linkAlso, unless there's a lot of demand for it, I don't think I'll be doing the roster poll split like this again.
>>500230179A thug with bling, got it.So a sc is something like Anthrax casting pyre and hacing reinvirgoration heart + boots + necklace...
>>500230320>posting existing models with namesexcellent idea mr footballfag, another layer of newfagproofing
>>500230320>no cultureless newfag barbarianits over
>>500230603F that was a good one
>>500230043>thugSingle geared commander who accomplishes specific tasks. Usually clears PD solo, sometimes kills enemy raiders, sometimes embeds into an army to hunt tough targets with their magical weapons.>supercombatantFully geared warrior-mage, almost always a titan or other giant, who can solo entire armies unless one of its weaknesses is targeted, which will be an elemental weakness, an MR check, being bogged down by combat summons or uncounterable effects like Life for a Life, Claws of Kokytos and Infernal Prison.It's very hard to make an SC that does its job and doesn't have a major weakness, and in Dom6 it's harder than ever because if the battle goes too long all the SC's self-buffs will run out, which usually means it fatigues out, takes much more damage, stops regenerating, stops being able to clear chaff, or all of the above.
>>500230506Soul vortex phoenix pyre is the classic SC combination
>>500229776a thug is any chassis that can solo PD a SC is any thug that wins whatever fight you throw it atif it wins, it was always an SCif it loses, it was always a thugreally that simple
This is a first.

I just bought this game, my brain feels small, but I enjoy this far more than I thought I would.
>>500232454read the documentation
>>500232849yes but first I want to lose again
>>500230043Thugs are cheap and disposable, aka you put 1-2 gear on them, let them take 20-30 pd and come out fine, but if you lose them no big deal. SCs are geared to the teeth and the cost to make them is such that losing them means a hole in your pocket. And SCs can take on and wipe hundreds even with magic support.
EA sucks because of low pop provinces LA sucks because of shitadelsMA is jusssssst right
>>500233342I'm just not bedazzled with MA/LA nations as much as I am with EA ones, although I'm warming up to MA Pythium. Not calling them bad ages or anyting like that, just don't really care for em

Citadel on farm land or adjacent to it? Yes/no?>inb4 it depends
>>500239238it dependsincome? recruitment points? resources? province connections? resources in those connections? any sites? any mages? is it strategically important? tactically? do you need the production? can you afford it? can you afford the production? can you defend it?
>>500207835Hey hey people, that video will be released to the proud members of the merchants' guild next week!
>>500239517Listen here you FUCK.
>>500239238On it. You don't wanna be in a position where one guy teleporting in can rob you of a 200 gold prov. Forts also give a gold +%, so it's a no brainer.
>>500237787For me, it's a 4-path mage summoning a 9-path holy3 non-unique mage for less research and blood slaves than a Lord of Civilization.
>>500239741If this really happens, I'm no longer against. The timing is perfect and there's never been a better moment.
>>500241816no comparison between that rat and these majestic beautiesI could reduce it to H2 instead of H3also bear in mind for the national spells, the paths are less about like powerlevel and more about encoding which mages can cast them (without doing annoying "can only be cast by" bullshit. which I do in a couple of places anyway...)
join the new big game before the sseth newfag barbarian apocalypse >>500242586remember to prophetize your black servanthttps://beta.blitzserver.net/game/436#status
>>500243847wtf are you talking about, that was a fake image
>>500242606Those all die to an s1 mage with a pearl if I summoned them. They never die to magic duel if my opponent summoned them.
>>500245439it was a bad omenyou'll regret your inaction
If spellcasting gets interrupted once, do mages attempt to cast what was interrupted or do they carry on with the rest of the script? Do they continue the script at all?
>>500251838It eats the slot and they move onto the next spell in their script.
>>500251838>>500252037That's a great question and I never thought of it. Thanks for asking and for answering. Not sure how to actually use this information but it's still nice to know.
Would fear breath from dracolich fear mindless inanimates? the damage part doesnt affect them but maybe the fear does
>>500261681No, mindless units are completely immune to fear. They don't have a mind to be scared with bro
>>500261762even if they're commanders?
>>500261861Yes
>>500260435I asked it because Magic Duel came up and I was thinking what if I'm expecting someone in the enemy army to cast antimagic or will of fates on turn 1? If I Magic Duel them then both mages would be dueling it out in the Astral Plane and even if my duelist loses then I would still have interrupted that big spell.
>>500262067well i have no clue how to beat a statue then, fuck statues
Are will o the wisps any good?
>>500265291idk but i summon them anyway cause they're cool lookin and it might get lucky and kill a mage

>>500275118That's really easy, just play a popkill nation.
>>500275371You can't just do it once or sometimes, though. You need to establish yourself as a consistent presence as the same popkill nation in every game.
Do not suffer the undead to live, you will be raped and killed if you're popkill in this game.
>>500276703how can you kill what is already dead?

Would it be bad to build a fort adjacent to my capital in order to protect a lab I’m going to built to unlock the indie mages there? I understand how supply pull works but I’m just wondering if there’s any cases where it’s acceptable to do that or generally something to avoid.
>>500301320>popkill coalition against pelagiaTHE DREAM
>>500298970UNSLOP THIS SHIT PLEASE
>>500303548seconding this
>>500303119>I’m just wondering if there’s any cases where it’s acceptable to do that or generally something to avoid.It makes sense for blood nations who get to the stage where they only care about recruiting more blood hunters, because they no longer need to spend gold on troops. Once you get a stable blood economy and access to Three Red Seconds, you can fort every province without too much concern.
>>500303119forting your capcircle is honestly nowhere near as bad as people make it sound, it's only bad if it ends up siphoning enough supplies that you can no longer cap out your sacred recruitment.
>>500303548>>500304202You two are the odd ones outMake a vanilla game if you don't want slops
>>500305117Well in that case would it be a bad idea to build an unprotected lab there for access to mages of a magic path I don’t have access to yet, or should I wait for a better place to put a fort? The indie mages also have astral in addition to a magic path I don’t have yet so I feel it they will be really useful later in the game used in conjunction with communions.
>>500305883It's 100% valid to build an unprotected lab for an indie mageIt's a 'it depends' situation but you can do it if the indie mage is goodOr covers something you lack in, like nature mages
>>500303119>protect a lab I’m going to built to unlock the indie mages thereif that's the only reason, yes it's bad because it's too much of a gold investment. unless you want to amass the indie mages with a fort's increased commander recruitment points.upon recruitment you can just move them into your capital's fort to be safe.and if another player takes that province, the lab won't be automatically destroyed like temples are. the player would have to deliberately destroy it which he might not think of or he might well consider to keep it because it can be useful to him too.
>>500305856N
>>500305883If a province can produce a useful mage with an unforted lab you should build a lab there and build that mage. It's basically like having an extra palisade of mage recruitment and it's why a lot of indie mages are given inept researcher. The ones that don't have it are very valuable provinces, like any of the sorceresses.
>>500303548>>500304202samefag
>>500306638Also even if your enemy raids an unforted lab province they need to manually demolish it to get rid of it, it's not as vulnerable as having unforted temples which are honestly also fine sometimes to recruit lizard shamans.
