The Wheel has turned once again5 Star Summon 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Our pastebin (extremely outdated)https://pastebin.com/wjbSA98Y>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://zollqir.github.io/pretenders-dom6/https://caleb-distributive.github.io/pretenders-dom6/ (website down?)>Debug modhttps://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3083231618>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 Turn of the Wheel>>520657673

>>521132930The hell is that bless

>fire shield doesn't water underwatergrim
>>521133620TC's dormant rush bless. He's triple dipping into it with his dual swordsmen, the demons and his ancestor ghost in battle summons. I can't take fights with him at all without having most of my mage corp pointbuffing my line, so he and his UWnigger (also quickness blessed) friend Atlantis ate my whole expansion. It really is quite over, but I will defend this cap to the end.
>>521134848Aren't his dudes just all cap only tho?
>>521136893The warriors are, but the masters of the dead are anyfort and he can summon the river demons with 1/4 students of the way.

>>521172703Who's the threat?
>>521173709Feminie. Dude is competent, has a decent bless, and they have some of the best research scaling in the game. Pangaea is scary big too and their units are insane but I think feminie has the edge in that matchup
>>521174039That's pretty interesting, haven't heard much about Femine in general that's why
>>521165812but druids are soft and gentle!! (thank you for making marverni art, its great

Ghost grip
>>521211351Do you think ghosts give good grip? Can ghosts occupy the same space as other ghosts since they're ethereal?
>>521211587The number of Yuyuko doujins I've read seems to conform that ghosts do grasp things quite well
I've got to limit myself to a single game at a time. I spend 2+ hours every day doing turns and if I rush through them to do something else with my evening, I make embarassing mistakes that I could have caught by thinking on it longer. It really does burn me out but I'm too stubborn to be a flake and go AI, please finish me off quickly.
>>521216645I join like 6 games and then only focus hard on the best performing one. It takes a lot of luck to win
>>521211989She is also very loyal, according to the divination book.
>>521131112this game worth for single player?
>>521222836I got like 40 hours out of single player before I decided to try out multi and loved it so maybe. There seems to be a fair bit of people who play single player. It does have roleplay aspects but it's hard not to notice how the game is designed for MP because it's asynchronous
>>521222836I've played 3, 4, 5, and 6. I only play sp as I am a coward. I think it's great for sp runs if you're new or don't care about stupid ai.
>>521230353What are you scared of? Don't beMost of us /domg/ players are gigantic retardsExcept Sy, he wrecks all of us on a regular basis, and I know from a reliable source that he's playing as Feminie in LAst_rites
>>521230353>stupid aiI see this criticism a lot and honestly think it is unfounded. The AI is fine. Probably better than most games with much bigger budgets and larger staff counts.That said, the AI will fall flat once you understand how to play the game better than it, but for most people that will probably take a while. You can put a lot of hours in the game while learning things and still be somewhat challenged by the AI.But ultimately, the game's real strengths are in multiplayer.
>>521232928People in general. I've had good experiences of course but the bad was a lot. It's less of a doms thing and more a general "agoraphobia from a long history of manipulation and abuse" thing.
>>521233704I was more generalizing,but yeah I agree.
>>521233704the only thing I dont like about AI is the cheating in money, it's like they never run out of resourcesI'd rather give them like free gems to cast every battle instead of giving them infinite units you know
>>521232928>he's playing as Feminie in LAst_ritesI wish I was that good. Unfortunately, I'm just as retarded as the rest of /domg/ as my horrific battle reports in my other games have proven this.
>>521172703Was finishing off Ulm with what I had nearby. Not planning on continuing your way.
>>521236335Shut up Sy
>>521197001That's old, yeah? I lost a fort to Marignon the other turn.t. Pan
End of Weakness
>>521239837It can't be since I casted Eyes this turn. It might have been at the same time you finished/took a new fort?
Has someone ever converted coe nations to dominions?
feels good
>>521242925Confluence mod for Dom 5 has what is basically a jazzed-up copy of the CoE Markgraf. Played them in a game hosted here a few years ago, but the mod nations were absolutely wacky in terms of differing power scales. Most players went AI pretty fast after meeting their neighbors, or some mechanic for their naction not working.
>>521247050I was the flayed mages and I've been gagging for a good dom6 port I love mods I crave mods I need MORE mods
>>521216645yeah same. I think it's either extreme perfectionism or low IQ, or both. people kept getting pissed at me for leaving unfinished turns but I am also an extreme procrastinator that can only function with minutes on the timer lol
>>521241979Oh yeah I think it was. My mistake.
>>521242925There were in Dom 4 iirc
>>521245649Nice throne
Summon Shade Beasts
>>521236335Summon a Grigori or no balls
>>521263610In my current singleplayer game as LA Lemuria I get a few of those for free, what do I use them for?
>>521264212Chaff killers
>>521264356I’m lategame enough I’m using abominations for that, but good to know for next time
>>521264606Why aboms?
>>521265114I have the best income and paths in astral and death and the toughest death summons have some form of cancer like the eater of the dead or tartarians
>>521265391Oh
are you supposed to be able to see everyone's lines on the graph after a game endsgame I'm in just ended and I'm only seeing my own
>>521241019At the end of the week...
>>521277417My last finished game didn't show the graphs either, and that was sometime back in March. Maybe 6.28 messed it up, or could be a blitzserver issue. I haven't played any games in the public lobby ever since blitzserver was ported over, so idk if it's a global issue.
Burden of Time
Had a bruiser this time around, still won but lost quite a bit in the process
>>521299130What happened to the mages that died? Sabbath?
>>521305675Indeed. They died to the fatigue of the Communion Masters casting Horde of Skeletons and other spells over and over eventually.
The big note I took from this battle is that Ko-Oni seem to be a great solution to giant problems, particularly when my Unrest level is high and they can weave between the scorpions just fine
All the same as soon as I get a big gang of archers together and cast fire arrows and poison arrows and strength of giants on them, this giant game will be over. Could also use Reanimate Archers, Banefire is also a fine solution to them
>>521307905Marvelous
>>521307905wild and generous
>>521308313pretty sneaky, sis
>>521310303what are you on about

>>521233704>Probably better than most games with much bigger budgets and larger staff counts.*sends 5 unsupported mages to break a siege*Other 4x's aren't that smart but Dom is mostly about combat and preparing armies for combat and the AI is too dumb to compete even with the cheating as long as the player knows how to cast spells.
I'm off work for a few weeks. Any bugs/features that are particularly pressing?
>>521317790Tell Illwinter to stop being lazy

>I've gone through my old copy of A History of Russia several times, and even borrowed a copy of themost recent edition coauthored by my former professor Mark Steinberg, and nowhere in it does it sayanything about whether the early inhabitants of Rus were Air/Death mages, or if they had the glamourability. very insightful, thank you dom 4 manual

anyone wanna blitz? aiming to start in around 2-3 hours.https://beta.blitzserver.net/game/573#status
>>521472828Sure what's the map and mods
>>521473610randomly generated and vanilla.early age but if you guys want oneage we can go with that.
>>521474542>vanillaAIEEEEEEEEE
>>521475136fag
>>521484403Vanilla is too boring for me
I'd blitz if it had Sloopy
>>521490128Surely you have exhausted the strategic depth of all 102 vanilla nations. I bow to thee, the best dominions gamer of all time.
>>521495043We all share the same set of spells dude
Ghosts you've gotten too fat. This is for your own good
After all why notWhy shouldn't I turtle during cataclysm?
>>521495109National spells exist. Also the amount of generic spells is ridiculous. Also what mods are you using that replace most of the spell list? No such mods exist as far as I’m aware. Modded is cool but “I feel like playing modded right now” is a far cry from “I’m bored of vanilla”. And you really shouldn’t have said anything. Dude’s looking to make a game and you bitching about someone else wanting to play vanilla does nothing but show the thread you’re a massive faggot.
>>521496262Okay jeez calm down. I just don't like how most spells in vanilla are useless
>>521495043>>521496262shut the fuck up
>>521490128vanilla is the correct way to play the game
>>521497130>vanilla is the correct way to play the game
>>521497527That looks too straight to be me, anon
Vanilla + minor widely accepted mods is the correct way to play the game.I'm talkin shit like Worthy Heroes, Better Arena.
you can continue to be "correct" in the game that you will never start for lack of players
>>521503149Thats probably more due to lack of posters here.
>>521131112Is that Hut-Heryburg?That nation has been on my mind. No cap, I been thinking about that time when I traded raw astral pearls in a Throne of Bones with him until he gave me his slaves. That shit had to be the tightest, creamiest, wettest Astral pearls I've ever slammed into my treasury. I swear to God, the most heavenly high is sending him a Dwarven Hammer while going fist deep into his Riches From Beneath. I had Heryburg screaming on the channel with trades too ridiculous to ignore. That nation frotted my Hoburgs until he made them slaves to his Hell power, I had to return the favor. That nation Hut-Heryburg and I been trading non-stop ever since. He even pulled his teeth to do it better, but keep that shit on the DL. He does that shit for free. If you're gonna ask me how to "long" Hut-Heryburg, I'll be deadass. All you gotta do is ask, be straight up, and get physical real quick. Touch his gems, get on ya knees, cast yo rituals. He doesn't play around with no pansy-ass nations either. He likes his men manly, and his astral pearls creamy white. Invuln 15, Prot 10 is the minimum and I ain't talking about height boy.That nation Hut-Heryburg stole my heart and afflicted my units with disease.

>>521505593no c'tis civil war?
>>521502690I wouldn’t fall worthy heroes minor. Its a fairly substantial content mod. Although heroes are a pretty small part of the game so I can see where you’re coming from. A popular mod that I’d actually call “vanilla” is Better Casting AI since all it does is make off script mages less stupid, it doesn’t change any of the game content.
>>521506249This is the second time this has been mentioned in this thread, what is that?
>>521506249Will do
>>521506249I joined that game but they removed my tendie so I don't really care
>>521506249>>521508618ok well I rejoined
>>521507719Worthy Heroes is about as extensive of a mod as I'll generally accept, and it also gets more leeway due to how prevalent it has been. Kinda got grandfathered in for me.I'd still call it minor compared to stuff like dominions enhanced or even SLOOPS but I get your point.
>>521508618Joining
Seems like I may have been organizing my blood economy incorrectly... too many small path blood hunters... probably should have had them researching instead. Blood is kinda complicated and takes way longer than I realized to come online. I've played a long time but usually avoided blood, plus it changed a fair bit in 6 I think
>https://beta.blitzserver.net/game/572#statusC'is civil war blitz happening upon sufficient playersJOIN TODAY!>>521508618initially it was going to be a 25 hr game but it probably works better as a blitz
>>521515490Might wanna rename your image anon, that looks like CoE. It’s funny tho.
>>521516639I don't really get the appeal of oneage desu. Especially for blitzes. I will join however...
>>521521134Yeah unless you wanna handicap yourself you choose a LA nation anyways.
>>521521134you guys don't understandC'tis civil war is all nations except EA C'tis removed
>>521521265untrueFomoria is one of the best nations in the game even in OneAgeYomi is brutal regardless of ageI could go on
>>521522571No MA or LA C’tis even? I assumed it would include at least them, if not some C’tis-adjacent nations like Pythium.
>>521522739Yeah there are a few exceptions (popkill nations don’t follow the rules lol) but usually LA has the best national troops (steel armor and crossbows) and while the mages don’t have particularly high paths they have lots of crosspaths.
>>521523806bro this mod was made as a semi joke for blitzmin in an afternoon, meant to be lighthearted fun
>>521524739Retard here. What are you even supposed to do with something like D1B1N1W1 mages? They can't cast shit with their crosspaths.
>>521525080Blood allows for communions
>>521525227I just guesstimated the paths of the goblins I'm playing. Blood is a random 1/4th iirc. So that's still kind of unusual for those specific mages.
>>521525080I agree that high paths tend to be better than crosspaths, but crosspaths let you do some nasty stuff too, especially with some items or communions. I think that the better troops outweigh slightly worse mages. But as an illustration to my point MA Ulm’s claim to fame is literally just being an LA-tech nation in MA (item discount is nice too but more minor).

>>521540453Wait one nigga
>>521538718Group Chuck
>>521540453Dead thread, I think discord is the preferred method for arranging blitz games.
>>521541409Okay, show me where the discord blitzes are on the server
>>521542975These two are pretty big, bound to be some blitzes going on in there (There's obviously more but illwiki is down so I can't use their list):https://discord.com/invite/krjHzVqVmRhttps://discord.com/invite/p28PPGcehE
>>521545181You misunderstood my question. I was asking where the discord hosted blitz games were on blitzserver itself
>>521545375You mean the server that often sets up the blitzserver games?
>>521547472So there are no discord-based blitzes running today, got it
>>521548432Yeah sorry bout that
Sidhe Lords are overpriced.>10% cheaper than a vanjarl>iron vulnerability>spell singer (actively detrimental trait for a thug)>loses an entire path>skilled rider 4 instead of 5
>>521540453I spent the afternoon doing turns and will hit the gym soon, I don't feel like it today. Maybe tomorrow.
>>521548432There are very few games hosted on blitzserver in general. Its a pretty niche website, much more niche than dominions itself or even the concept of dominions blitz games.
My point was that if the discord is "where people play now" but they don't have any blitzes running either then it isn't any better than here and also its in all probability run by a power tripping transexual to boot
I'm not taking the chance of getting drawn into long elaborate diplomatic discussions anyway, I forgot about that part, or being punished for not participating in that aspect of discord games
>>521550102Is Iron Vulnerability that bad?
>>521550102Counterpoint: he can cast 3 illusory armies before getting tired once twilight is upGood luck doing anything that useful with a Vanjarl!
>>521553496Only Eriu needs to resort to Sidhe Lords for that job. Baobhan Sidhes can do the same thing for half the cost. Also illusion spam hits its usability ceiling in army battles very quickly. Any elemental kills infinite illusions, and quite quickly at that.
>>521550718They do run blitzes, just not on the blitzserver website. The concept of a dominions blitz is separate from that website.Also on the topic of trannies there's pretty much nowhere online that you can escape from them. 4chan too I've seen a "I want to become a little girl" thread on pretty much every board.
>>521556354>Also on the topic of trannies there's pretty much nowhere online that you can escape from them.That may be true, however it still gives me no reason to enter their discord channels and endure their bullshit
>>521556354You're about as successful in passing those two things off as the same as any troon is at passing off as the opposite sex.
>"I wish I was a dog, they're so carefree any everyone loves them">"That means you sexually identify as a canine and want to have sex with animals!"He's probably not even trolling. This is literally what they tell kids to think in modern public schools.
>>521556862Well some servers are worse than others, all it takes is a quick peek into the rules channel to see if criticism of the movement is literally illegal or not. If not, its likely run by a semi-normal person.
>>521557291Except its not kids making those threads, its perverted grown men. Are you seriously trying to conflate childhood wonder with autogynephilia and lolicon?
>>521558340I didn't know only children were capably of having appreciation for the positive lifestyle qualities of others. Is that something they taught you in public school as well?
>>521557291The "I want to be a cute/little girl" thing is an absolute AGP troonout pipeline and it's so obvious that you can only be in denial if you're denying it with this passion.Literally no other point in history did a grown-ass big hairy man want to be a cute little girl and wasn't a complete freak, the current year is no exception. It's just more widespread due to various social factors.
>>521559268>the positive lifestyle qualities of others
>>521559590The statement "I wish I was a little girl" is an observation that you are not the thing you wish you were, meaning it's a direct contradiction of the institutional mental illness that is "you are whatever you want to be". It's a basic statement of envy, an emotion that any intelligent being is capable of feeling toward something that has what it doesn't. Since when were such severe midwits present in dominions threads?
>>521560527Concession accepted.
>>521561028>Declares victory after making an empty statement with no proof whatsoeverok tranny
It is so funny how these predditors are so incapable of creating anything themselves that they ape the already years old sayings and mannerisms of anons, not only in an attempt to blend in but also because they are incapable of creating anything themselves but a trail of butt plugs and suicided 'allies'
>I accept your concession
>>521560865>Since when were such severe midwits present in dominions threads?Most likely, since some shitcord faggot came here to shill 2 hours ago.
>>521560865That's only phase 1 anon
>>521561673Not shilling, just saying that's where most games are organized. If you want to play today that's where you go. If you're married to blitzserver then you can wait until its more active.Those are your choices. I am completely unaffiliated with the dude who is slipping down the pipeline.
>>521562161Oh, you're still here. At least it's clear who is image spamming the thread after losing the argument.
>>521562369I only posted one image, and its the very latest one.
>>521562489Sure, someone from discord would never lie on 4chan.
>You did not read through the 7 paragraph ceasefire agreement proposal from your opponent that our discord administrators read through and decided was Good and Fair and as such we are punishing you >You have a conspicuous lack of pro-trans and pro-Ukraine flair on your profile and have determined that you are a chud>You aren't part of the inner clique of the channel and will always get ganged up on with the encouragement of the insular admin team, sorry chud ;)WOW I CAN'T WAIT SIGN ME UP HERE'S MY PHONE NUMBER
>>521562765The fuck does "from discord" mean? I actually am not in any of the dom discords, I only play singleplayer for now. I don't give a shit if YOU believe me, everyone else here knows what they posted and they also know that you're stupid.
>>521561420They know everything they touch turns to shit, so they try to weaponize their own worthlessness by claiming 4chan culture is theirs.
>>521563046Sure, someone from discord would never lie on 4chan.
>>521563121Remember when they got hundreds of millions of dollars to make their own game
This dumb discord faggot who shapes his entire personality around the idea what he is a strategic mastermind dominions player and debate master couldn't last 3 posts in an internet argument before spamming strawmans and slippery slope fallacies.
>>521562940They do ban you at the moment you indicate you're not pro-trans, which is a very good reason to not be active in public discords, or 99% of websites for that matter. But you can use them for LFG or announcements if you have a neutral looking profile and you don't chat with the people there. But I totally get it if you don't want to go there at all, like 99% of the internet and 90% of irl, it is incredibly fucked right now. Common sense and free speech are dead. We agree on that right? Can you stop sperging out now?
>>521563620There's also that time they got an entire AAA games studio with government funding.
>>521563762>They do ban you at the moment you indicate you're not pro-transok so I'm just not gonna be there to play along with their evil bullshit
>>521563762>I called someone a nigger tranny faggot and they muted me for 15 minutes!!!!1! this is OPPRESSION!!!!!>No they're not allowed to say things I don't like that's not freedom of speech!!!!!!
I wish I was a little girl so I could get /domg/ers who talk about troons in the thread instead of discussing the game and doing their turns arrested and murdered for "sexual predation of a minor"
>>521564054That's completely fine. Nobody was trying to force you to go there. Can't believe a single mention to where most games are organized spiraled out into this.
>Just like agree and play along with everything they do or say ok its the only option just do it ok you want to play games dont you?
>>521564339Anon no! You've officially entered the slippery pipeline™ and will be cutting off your penis in two more weeks™!
>>521564485Penisisters I don't feel so good...
I wish I was a bird so I could be an asshole to people.
>>521564469Stop complaining about it like a woman and just track them down and fucking kill they/them with hammers>>521564641Calm down senior, I can hear your head balding
>>521560865>becomes a mental Olympian to explain why he's not a troonbrained failure of a male for fantasizing about being a little anime girlSad!
>the positive lifestyle qualities of others
Fellas, I'm the #1 Discord hater, but any man who wishes he was a little girl is mentally ill.
>>521563762>and you don't chat with the people thereThat really goddamn sucks because half the fun Dominions can be for me is talking shit over battle reports, RP autism spilling over, a single drawfag meme or question (remember the Ulm vs Abysia army or hammer gemgen?) spiraling into a thread's worth of arguing and funposting, and we had all that here just a few months ago. But now all the high-effort posters and players seem to have left for discord or other games, and I don't want to go be a mute ghost in discord lobbies when I like the atmosphere 4chan can be at it's best seeing how I've still been coming back to this dumb site for 13 years now
Man this dude is really seething.
I wish I was a cat
>>521566459There's like 3 high effort players on discord. The rest are normalfags who don't understand strategy games, normalfags who will ask people on discord what is the best counter to anything you do, and cliquefags that collude to maintain their "skilled veteran player" status. /domg/'s skill level is on average higher even taking into account people that AI.
>4chan culture and troon culture is... LE SAMEGee, where have I seen this conversation before?
>>521566459The key problem is that Illwinter fucked up their own game and only bother to do shit like changing black servant to shadow servant while ignoring years old problems and leaving it to modders to figure out
I can't even tell who's arguing with who. It's like my humble domg erupted into a tranny civil war.
>Why buff things when you can just nerf things?
I just want to throw 2000 longdead at everything.
>>521567330Schizo to retard communication, I fear
>>521567312Trvke
>>5215673126 is more interesting than 5. The jump was just too big and drove off a lot of the people that don't like change.
Domingoes was fun before forumchuds discovered it, we have to go back to 1
>>521568273Well for one thing their Pretender options are imbalanced and restrict a lot of nations to playing the same few viable ones over and over, if that is 'change' then yeah it drove people off for sure
>>521567776Excuse me sir, I need to inform you that anime girl reaction girl images are part of the slippery slope. You're only allowed to use them if you support trans rights or promise to do so in two more weeks.
>>521568779But enough about Dominions 5: Warriors of the Statbless.
Dominions would be better if it had less spells
>will get banned if I post basedjaks in domg>will also get banned if I post basedjaks in domcordsWe /qa/brothers are the most oppressed race.
>>521568953I agree that the tendies in 5 were also imbalanced>>521568987>Dominions would be better if it had less spellsThat was kind of their angle with Dom6, more troops and they did stuff like moving the good items from Construction 4 to 5 instead to slow down the magic ramp
>>5215692714 and prior didn't have bless points to begin with, while 5 was the exact thing being complained about. That makes it clear that the bless system in 6 is the best iteration so far. That doesn't mean other things don't need work though, mount mechanics and glamor need work.
>>521567040That's reassuring, but I would have to experience a game with them myself. I've always had a worry that /domg/gers are terrible compared to the larger playerbase and I haven't been growing in skill much at all. I guess I always assumed that discordtroons would constantly be refining stuff like tile efficiency and knife-edge expansion and pointbuffing in dedicated channels for it, while there's little talk of improving here.>>521567312I can't claim to know about illfraud's history because I started with 6, but it's true there are some obnoxious issues and this is one of those games where the default go-to experience is modded. I guess I'm too broken in by games like Kenshi to care enough about that.
>>521569824if you only started with six it might seem normal that they have only added one nation since the game came out(its not normal)
>>521569271They also added even more shit in 6, though I'll admit I like the new blood blesses at least, finally got me to try blood nations
>>521570228I like the new blesses too
>>521570132I see. I'm still at a point where I'm playing a new nation every game and am not bored with it, but I'd probably feel different if this kept up for years. That being said, I'd only care for a new nation if I liked their style, and would appreciate the update bringing people back more than the actual content.
>>521569824The discord top end is readily viewable on youtube:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e50duN_ZRwEBiggest player in a high province count map with low expansion bottlenecking is a muspelheim with 21 provs on turn 13. Second biggest is a 17 province mekone. There are two previous tournament finalists in this game, they are vanheim and helheim and both ended the first year with less than 15 provinces. Also 0 (zero) year 1 forts. This is considered strong, not just above average, in the discord dominions environment.
>TNN>+1 Luck scales>gets outright genocided by Man who doesn't even have a nation in their age
>>521572024What the hell. Are the 30 prov Hochmeister expansions I've read of only found here? I should go own these nerds.
>>521571506A lot of their best nations are added in patches which makes it hurt more. If they had been this niggardly in the past, we would never have gotten the frogs and the bats, ragha, ind, or vaettiheim
discord troons would for sure spend their free time (all day because they have no job) grinding the game and then only sharing that knowledge with their clique
>>521573529They tend to shun fast expansion strategies because it's seen as a diplo malus. However, less than 20 provs in a tournament map that guarantees you'll have few neighbors and has a high province count (the map was publicly released beforehand so everyone had time to plan) is inexcusable in my opinion.
You have to remember that a lot of Dominions comes down to ganging up on others as much as possible while avoiding being ganged up on and being part of a long term server with your name attached is going to encourage you not going for being the Big Threat early or implementing an innovative strategy that gets you ahead
>>521575245That's another thing I'd hate about discord, a few creatures with a grudge and a DM comm link gunning for me turn 1 would really piss me off
>>521575245Deserved
Hmm... what's that? I can't easily win the game by simply spamming the weakest unit over and over again?I should physically assault the devs until they fix this or die from their injuries
>>521578858You just aren't spamming enough of them.

>>521601560cute!
>>521601560Whoo's this by?
>>521620258this is a /domg/ original while we wait for the real cute merrow art
>>521622060Ah k
Am I missing something or does dance of ephemeral swords suck dick?>3 melee attacks per turn>checks defense>checks MR>checks for mindless>to do 1 AN damageWhat is the use case for this? A counterthug spell that requires a G2 mage get into melee?
>>521628401G2 is inherently a pretty good counterthug/army thug path because of luck (protection from evocations and powerful attacks) bewilderment (protection from melee chaff) and displace body (strong conditional defense buff). Ephemeral Swords further compliments this kit by giving you more attacks, even if they're not great attacks, to kill stuff and harass defense down with. Also it is pretty good against bad MR troops in heavy armor, like ulmites.
There could be LONGDEAD here. I've never been to this province before.
I hate mage PD
>>521628401If they're like other dancing weapons then they'll benefit from weapon blesses.
>>521648631You can't script them tho
>>521654421That just makes it worse. They introduce a major RNG element to raids, especially if the PD has a random path like Ubar's.

Is there any non AoE weapons aside from the berserk axe, smasher, and scourge that's worth it?
>>521760589great sword of sharpness
>>521760589HP booster weapons, life drain weapons, anti-armor weapons
>>521760589Main gauche
>>521760589for thugs or SCs? frost brand is great for thugs
>>521760589Sword of Swiftness, Implementor Axe, and Carmine Cleavers are good thug/SC weapons long as you have extra attack vectors. Star of Darkness/Axe of Hate, Heartfinder Swords, Eyecatchers and Botulf Bows are good antithugging tools.
Just got back from a speed dating Dominions 6 1v1 event. I won three 1v1s so now I have three girlfriends! Glad I learned how to play this game, it not only is a deep strategic game but also now I have three girlfriends, and Dominions 6: Rise of the Pantokrator to thank for it. Thanks, Sweden!

Sorry Panzer bros. I didn't check thrones for awhile and didn't realize Pythium was about to win.
>>521785094Fug really?? I just spent most of the game just killing AIs
>>521783595But SCBM is the most pro thug mod in existence
Thugs (thugee) were just Kali worshippers and murderhobos in colonial India
>>521768994I see people reference the DARK bow of botulf a lot but have never seen it used to retard successfully anyone of import. Most thugs have high prot, the bow doesn't particularly hurt and it needs to damage them to feeblemind.
>ai summons hordes of imps and bugs then throws a fires shield on themholy shit i got outplayed
>>521790137Sometimes it is the only way to neutralize supercombatant. If it hits and damage, it causes feeblemind. There is no resistance roll
