No flyers editionThe Wheel has turned once againDominions 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Our pastebin (extremely outdated)https://pastebin.com/wjbSA98Y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/game hosting services>Hinaserver https://arch.b4k.dev/vg/thread/548312356/#548526452https://hinaserver.net>Blitzserverhttps://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=sharing>other asynchronous strategy gamesSolium Infernum.Previous Pantokrator>>569054072
I like thinking about playing this game more than I like actually playing it
Who are the best mercs and who are the worst?For me best is Shipwreckers. Best get into water free cardWorst is Urgek Beast Bros. I don't care how cheap they are they are garbage
I wish illwinter made forests actual forestsmy N7 titan of the forest should not be fighting out in a fucking clearing they literally want to work with trees and be surrounded by trees
>>570351527Big fan of Helmut's SappersThe commander has the Master Mason trait so you can upgrade your forts even with normally not able to.Second would be Dagan. He's cheap as hell and gives a very nice boost in research, especially if he appears early on.
>>570353683I'm kinda hoping thats the next big step if dom 7 happens. More varied and detailed battle terrains.The assasination battles in pubs and bedrooms is a good start, relative to the pace illwinter works at.It would have to be done carefully though, we can already see how big a deal going through the gate of a fortification is, a forest for example with many chokepoints could get very annoying
>>570355097>a forest for example with many chokepoints could get very annoyingVery annoying for nations that dont deal with forests well is exactly my pointThink how the roman legion felt about forests during their campaigns to the north
>>570355742Yeah I get why you'd want it, but just imagine fighting into fucking Asphodel for a moment. You'd need to provide more tools to deal with the problems it would create.I do think there is a much better middle ground than how it currently is too though
>>570356068we already have the structure for terrain changeMore map changing mechanics would be cool
>>570356068But imagine casting fire stormTreehuggers in shambles
Where the fuck is Man's abandoned capital and who the fuck is eating it for free?I need THREAT reports
>>570353683coe already has much more going on in the battles, but yes expanding on it would be very cool. marshy areas in swamps that slow you down, ravines or cliff faces on mountain provinces that block pathing, being able to set an entire forest on fire, ect
>>570356068It would at least do some good work weakening the retarded sacred heavy cav meta we have going on nowIf you can't unleash a full 100 strong cav lance charge then maybe they'd be forced to think of something more than 'unga bunga line formation attack rear'
Battlefields with BridgesBattlefields with (Slave) MarketsBattlefields with WellsBattlefields with GrovesBattlefields with DocksBattlefields with Brothels
>>570369391>Battlefields with Brothels>200 Mynads clawing your dick off
>>570358848I think that's Naba, but cannot be certain. Do you know which province Man's cap was? I don't have a province count, but Naba could be well over 25 provinces while hitting the foreign rec button hard. Meanwhile I'm over here with a respectable 16 provinces and Naba thinks I'm the threat. Yeah ... I've won a bit as Phlegra here and there ... but fucking camels man, they are the "desert snowball".
>>570350576That's why we do a turn a day:)
Truly there is no greater pleasure on earth than doing a double
Is the multiplayer in this kinda like heroes 3 where people sit down for a few hours to play, or do you really do only 1 turn a day?
>>570377353really it's more like 1 turn every 2 days, with extensions and as the game goes on the timer increasessometimes they roll fast, but there's always one guy that waits till the last 10 minutes to do their turn in 5.
>>570377640so if i wanted to lets say find a person or two to play for like 10 hours in a day, it's gonna be pretty difficult?
>>570377994Those are called blitzes, where everyone plays out a game in one sitting with a 5-10 minute timer. We used to have them pretty frequently here, but our resident blitzmin's retired and I haven't played in or even seen one here in months.You'd have some luck joining one in the discords as long as you avoid Dominions Nexus (the trooncord).
>>570377994That's a blitz, you all sit down and play a single game over the dayThey're pretty common in the discord channels and the timers are much shorter. Just expect it to be much more 'hell bless suicide bombing' since five minutes a turn truly isn't enough to come up with any real strategy.
>>570351527The ghost ones are neat. Very flexible thanks to being amphibious, perfect endgame raiders.
>>570377353Here's the thing. Turn 1 takes you 2 minutes to do. Turn 80 could take you 3 hours to do, more if you are really autistic
>>570383274Ah
Finally got my praetor
https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/669330/view/679626980701767304free mechabellum weekend
>>570396180How's it?
>>570403845It's like dominions if there were no spells and it was just buying units and positioning them properly. with some RNG cards that shake things up
If the admin is here I might need an extension. I'm about to take a nap cause I'm really tired and cant do the turn right now. I'll probably do it when I wake up but there's a chance I sleep through it entirely
>>570404412Is it async tho
>>570362474I thought heavy cav got rekt by the cav split because the heavy cav ends up with like 1 defense due to armor burden.
>>570409979It's a blitz type of game that lasts like 1-2 minutes per round and ends in 10 turns it's just like a singular battle where you add more and more units it doesnt have a base or anything like dominionsBut it's free so you can just try it and see
>>570410005It's not that extreme, but not having much defense isn't important when you're rocking 20 prot.Meanwhile those front line infantry are wasting their attacks on a horse with 22hp and 20prot (maybe more if sacred!) as the rider obliterates them with a 29 damage lance charge, and if sacred, possibly some blood surged melee attacks.
What faction lets me bugmax?
>>570411913Shinuyama has a national summon omukade
>>570411913MA Machaka has a spider summon at Conj4 that gives you 6 for 12N any Sorcerer can cast1/4 Sorcs are N3, allowing for easy Creeping Doom casting as well.
>>570416206Are spiders really bugs? They eat bugs. They're superior
>>570411913Machaka for spiders, EA Xibalba for scorpions, any nature nation for generic bugs.
>like sumerian mythology>uruk units are ugly as FUCK>except the hot inanna pretender>completely missing from late age(?)Time to swallow the pill, i cant judge it purely by looks, hopefully they are easy to play at least?
Nothingburger turn
>>570411913Machaka, duh
SPIDERS ARE ARACHNIDS
>>570422497Ants tho
>>570417930They're who I won with against AI as my first nation, big units are a nice advantage and their mages are good
>>570417930Uruk is not widely considered a super powerful faction, but I think they have a lot of potential. Its not a super difficulty nation to pilot, you have some real pipe swingy infantry, specifically Iron Warriors. Your mages are good, and are a good way to learn the basics of communions since with their size and ability to cast regen communions are pretty easy for them. They can do some funny gimmicks with expendable gods given that they get your god back very easily.
>>570426956Any summon strats?
>>570409972Alright im mainly done no need any more
>>570431112Getting into the water gets you some cool dudes who you can bring out of the water if you make amulets of the fish (your mages have the paths for it natively)Ugallus are nice to have around to cast Fog Warriors and whatnot.Lategame Umu-apkallu are really good mages for their price.
Erzsebet!!!!!
Can’t bloody take me pc with me on holiday and I doubt anyone will want to wait a week for me so I’m offering for some git to take over Black Crag in warhammer_reduxPosition is decent enough so no need to be afraid. Contact here:benelos@proton.me
>>570435670Thanks
warhammermin, i took norsca's cap and 3 different skaven sites spawned there so i can recruit a bunch of stuff. is it because it's a cap so multiple clan sites can exist at once or is this just a bug? i'm leaning towards bug because i also had an eshin assassin there but an eshin den didn't spawn.
>>570441643There's a site limit iirc
>>570442158there is but i haven't reached it. i got the mors barracks because queek was there, and the rictus holdfast because tretch was there. maybe the bug is that if a hero is in the province it can cause multiple of those sites to spawn on the same turn? that's the only thing i can think of
>>570443778Try moving him in and out
>>570444578just so we're on the same page, only 1 of the skaven clans is supposed to be able to be established per fort. the fact i'm getting multiple is, i assume, a bug. i'm not trying to get more of them but trying to figure out why i was able to get more than 1 in this particular fort
I wanna play Jomon LA, is this an insane god to take though and larp underwater with my naginata sacreds expanding down there.Only problem, their iron equipment will rust and can't use their bows.But the God would let me do vengeful water/gale gate which are both Thaumaturgy, ofc anyone with a strong early war would just kill me and R'lyeh would just rape me before I got my dragon thugs out
>>570444712SKAVEN ARE THE THREAT
>>570448504It's much easier and cheaper to just take an amphibious monster to get you safely into water.This build "could" work I guess? I'm not super familiar on expanding with Jomon without a monster.You better have a good plan for using that titan as soon as it wakes up because your neighbours wont have spent 5 bless points on going into the water
Okay hopefully I make the tribute
Gnight domg
>>570425238>>570426956Fine i will give them a try just because i find this unhinged art funny despite lacking context.Ur or Uruk first for a newbie?
>>570456308Uruk has actual women unlike Ur fish things
>>570450907The idea is to have a god that can help win real battles, I just need to get lucky with indies and expansion.
Here are the graphs from flEA_market.
>>570459738we get it. you won the game. big congratulations, pal. ur so tuff.
>>570456308Ayy, someone saved my shit artUruk is a ton of fun and deceivingly versatile in gameplay
>>570460816Its on the dominions booru silly
>>570456308>>570460816>nipple piercingsSumerians were kinky fucks uh
>>570456308Cute birb
>>570461494>>570462442Inanna's tales are great you should read about not just hers but sumerian myths in generalShe once got raped by a gardener whilst she was sleeping under a treeWhen she woke up she was super fucking pissed and raised hell, releasing storms and plagues trying to find out the perpetratorWhen she finally found the dude, he tried to make excuses which she ignores and straight up just kills himIn a different tale where she went to the underworldSex as a whole stopped, all of it, there was no sex on earth at all

>>570462598HOT

>>570460156Worst post I've seen in this graveyard in 6 months.Worst post since the storm flight Lanka guy was in his prime even
Let it be known that Eriu double turns
>>570467831Enjoy the Nids, if this was Sloops I could probably earth grip/tangle vines them but they're both so bad in vanilla
>>570466250Saved
>>570468901What the fuck was illfraud even thinking with Nidbathed
>>570469398They're not hard to fucking counter just spam archers against the nidders
>>570469825yeah archers are great vs nidbatheds with luck undying 10 and righteous wrath, they'll definitely kill them before they run out of arrows
>>570468901nid nid nid sahere
>>570470627Actually pretty close to what he has
>>570470992the most disgusting thing about nidavangr is that they don't even need an incarnate bless to be completely broken. you can take an imprisoned bless like that and also get great scales while having retarded sacreds
>>570470992okay yeah you're fucked
Sloopfags are disgusting
>>570472129truth nuke alert
A-am I now the threat?!?!? By turn 13 no less?
>>570472428Rape that sloop loving uruk faggot NOW
>>570470627>>570471117>>570471303anon, you hard counter nidders
>>570472428Niddas are ALWAYS the threat.But Naba is looking pretty threat worthy too
>>570472765He already went AI
>>570472765okay now how about when mages are involved and they have air shield and prot buffs instead of small groups of units
>>570470992Do poison stacks persist when nidders lose a scar soul?
>>570472765>we did it triple n we popped the slops bubble>triple n?...>i will always be... nid nid saheeree..........
>>570472909You have your own mages anonYou have the funniest anti nidder spell in the game
Sorry if my post came off as whining, I love cocks and sloop. I'll fight until I die ofc
>>570473519shut up youre not me. although youre right on the cocks and slops part.
Stop saying the n word
>>570473345The answer to everything is always more Soul Slay spamUntil your opponent wisens up and casts Antimagic.
It's simple, we just kill the nidman
Nidders are on my cap circle too
>>570473641That's Ench 7 anonSoul slay batteries come online at Thau 5And soul slay isnt the counter, enslave mind isScar souls counter soul slay by making your mage cast soul slay exponentially more times to actually slay a niddaEnslave mind bypasses all of that
>>570474085Doesn't soul slay bypass all that bullshit and just 1 shot them?Are they the literal sole and single thing in this game that it doesn't kill instantly with zero revive chance?
>>570474597yes they're donut steel so they can survive soul slays
>>570474597When you soul slay a nidderOne of their scar, that has a soul in it, gets slayed instead
Nidders rushing you or Muspel/Niefels rushing you choose.
>>570474818They should make it so glamor magic ignores the scar souls, like it ignores regen
>>570475076Confusion makes niddeds fight nidders.
>>570470992No fire res? Were there no big F nations in the game?13MR (14 from bless) is pretty damn high too for what is essentially a human.
>>570475020Whatever this is
>>57047612113 MR is pretty normal anon
>>570476681outside of the warden, they aren't human (and even then, dude was raised in a full on purely magical fey realm and may as well be an elf at that point)then again who knows wtf the nid river really does, a minute in it may be equal to spending a literal lifetime in the fey realm so who knows
>>570444712yeah seems like a bug>>570467295>Worst post since the storm flight Lanka guy was in his prime evenhalcyon days desu
>hundreds of different units>different units:Why have dozens of units per nation if they're functionally the same and hard to tell apart?
>>570480383You just need to play more.
>>570480383Some differences are subtle, but they are there. MA Ulm has the issue where their units are pretty samey, but they're not exactly identical. >Two handed weapons Hit hard. Good for when you want to take down high hp targets.>One handed weapons + shields Shields give more protection to a unit and help them against arrows.>Long weaponsCan repel shorter weapons and prevent attacks.>FlailsGet two attacks per round. Great at clearing away chaffy units.
>>570480383the differences become much more important in multiplayerhowever, to your point, there is little meaningful difference between say the hammer+shield and the morningstar+shield or the twohanded axe and the twohanded hammer guysalso with ulm they have doubled up variants because of the medium vs heavily armored versions of each troopUlm is a particularly bad offender
can you play mp with the steamrip version?
>>570480776I haven't played it at all. A guy from Discord with whomst I played nu-Solium Infernum proselytized Dominions to me so much that I started watching tutorial videos by different youtubers.>>570483461>>570486975Well, out of curiosity I checked out stats on the two mace guys (Infantry of Ulm and Black Plate which, I assume, are mid and heavy armored respectively).Black Plate mace guy is 30% more expensive in resources, has 17% more encumbrance and 10% less defense, while having 10% more morale and 20% more protection. Sounds impressively inconsequential to be honest.
>>570491614The difference between 19 and 23 prot can be quite large due to how random numbers are rolled for damage.A unit that hits for say 16 damage on average will almost never hit through 23 prot, but they could hit through 19 prot fairly regularly
>>570486975Hello WMF, may I suggest 20+ and army wide versions of the black crag national spells? (Itchy, burnin, fists of gork)Because not only undisciplined makes it extremely hard to pain on the boyz, they become obsoleted extremely quickly
>>570492236>>570491614Yeah, when I'm fighting an MA Ulm player and see they're just using normal Pikes instead of Blackplate Pikes I let out an audible sigh of relief.19prot vs 23 prot is unironically huge.if any get buffed with Temper Armour (which they should be since you have super easy access to it) it goes up to 26.The vast majority of things cannot damage 26 prot. Ulms basic black plate troops with Temper are damn near invulnerable if the opponent doesn't have access to poison or HUGE damage like Dai Bake
>>570475076Wouldn’t matter. You can trick the mind and even reality, but false damage doesn’t soul slay an immortal so it wouldn’t bypass Soul Scars
Smartest chaos champion in Redux.
>>570491614As the others said, going from 19 to 23 protection is big. it makes them very tanky against regular human troops. 30 to 41 resources is also worth noting. Resources don't carry over between turns, and you can make four halfplate men for every three fullplate. If you're got a fort that's low on resources, choosing the halfplate dudes can help bulk out your armies.

How this game going lads? WE HAVIN FUN?
Surely the game would sell more if the SP ai was abit more competent? i cant imagine playing multiplayer
This bless is still funny and I hope some anon will utilize it one day, maybe me but I rarely play nations with strong sacreds
>>570531212Surely, but the game is a project, not a product. It's two half-retarded swedes making a funny little game.
>>570531212Sorta? There's a lot of rope to play with but the ai would rather strangle itself or trip over it than make a fun play
>>570531212> i cant imagine playing multiplayerokay bye
>>570491614>Well, out of curiosity I checked out stats on the two mace guys (Infantry of Ulm and Black Plate which, I assume, are mid and heavy armored respectively).>Black Plate mace guy is 30% more expensive in resources, has 17% more encumbrance and 10% less defense, while having 10% more morale and 20% more protection.

But waaagh bosses are supposed to allow for very different tactics than normal armies. So the difficulty in buffing is by design (though maybe overtuned)
>>570531212singleplayer is like a few hundred hours of discovering the mechanics, exploring the design lanscape of the races, etc...multiplayer is like billions of years of crack cocaine roullette wheel turn rolling adrenaline rushes. truly this place is the place of wailing and gnashing of teeth
>>570536659BUFF TZEENTCH NIGGA
Reminder to keep watching Perun
>>570536703I think I will look at their fire projectilesand their economy. The +5 -5 fixed scales thing is harder to balance than I thought it would be.Maybe their mages should have 0 upkeep?
>>570536946That's a good change yes, thematic too. They are the magic nation

Whats a good bless for LA Agartha? the Sacreds seem cool for early game, but are they worth a bless? many mages are sacreds toothe Sepulcherals also seem cool, but not spammable, so Im not sure if they deserve a bless either? Is LA Agartha maybe better suited with Scales?Does Hardskinn Bless stack with Iron Skin self buff spell?
>>570557034>LA Agarthadid illwinter base this one off of nazi occultism? how are there so many parallels
>>570557278Illwinter takes from everything
>>570557278sadly Nazi occultism was only my minor at Uni... care that fill me in on some details? also some ideas about the bless strat for this nation?
>>570555798I considered it for Sloops buffs to monster and titan pretenders. But the rules of the arena already buff them up by context:>no late game so no reason not to invest harder into the early and mid game>no big expansion so it'll be harder to mass up a response by force>awake fighters will be weaker than dormant or imprisoned fighters with stronger blesses, but can secure a point advantage in the early turns, before magic and magic items start coming into playAdding Sloops would probably skew things too hard towards pretenders single handedly fighting over the arena, and whoever loses theirs will be pretty much out of the fight for a long time, which would be boring. Without Sloops, most people will likely still grab monsters and titans but there's more room for armies to fight.
>>570557278>nazi occultismEven tho Ungern von Stenberg is the one who popularized Agartha through his obsession with the Shambala, which has Buddhist roots.
>>570558505You know this big overlap between MAGA, the Q people a couple years back (cannibal networks under PizzaHuts, more cannibal and alien stuff in secret bases in Antarctica, etc.), and also with a bunch of other nutjobs like flat Earth, Jewish space laser, chemtrails, and the ones who think that trees are bushes and real trees used to be kilometers high but were cut by THEM and dragged away beyond the ice wall long ago and actually mountains are the stumps of what used to be trees?The overlap between conservatives and insane conspiranoia has always been a thing, all the way back to ancient times. The Nazis also had some kind of creepy secret occult club. Documentation about them and what exactly they did, if anything at all, is unfortunately sparse at best, and there's lots of made up shit.The Agartha thing is that some of them believed that the world was actually hollow and there were "people", possibly aliens or an alternative evolutionary path of prehistoric humans, walking upside down below us and coming out to spy on us with their aircraft, which came out of some holes that connected the inside with the outside. The main hole should have been somewhere in the North Pole, and the Nazis did send a bunch of planes to explore and search for it. The plan was to get in there >>> ??? >>> acquire their super advanced technology to make weapons and win the war.Lots of stuff about that is pure fabrication, though. For example, there's reports of submarine expeditions that are obviously fake because submarines during WW2 couldn't do the kind of things the reports claim they were doing. It seems plausible that the Nazis might have sent a couple planes on secret mission to check by order of some particularly culty higher ups (like Himmler himself), but they didn't organize any large scale operations.If you're curious, go ask in /x/. They've got a shitload of documents over there. Lots of fanfiction and fabricated stuff, but also some real maps and shit.
>>570504335Uhh, how exactly does the game determine what order armies arrive on the same province?
>>570558505>>570559732>>570560894also the nazis were constructing their own new religion by combining aspects of german paganism and tibetan buddhism.and the concept of agartha/shambhala comes from tibetan buddhism.tibetan buddhism btw differs a lot from other forms of buddhism and is the opposite of the whole le peaceful buddha stereotype.lightning is a big thing in tibetan buddhism - the SS runes are lightning bolts; "blitzkrieg" meaning lightning war, etc. the SS runes can also be interpreted as the sign of aquarius. aquarius = air = lightning. why is this significant? because there are "astrological ages" (look it up) and occultists believe we are currently in the age of aquarius. this age shifts every couple thousand years. the last one was the age of pisces, also known as the age of sailing (humans explored the world by sailing during this age), the age of aquarius is the age of aviation and communication, see airplanes, telephones, internet, etc.also the black sun symbol has its roots in tibetan buddhism where its called "rahu". i could go on and on.
>>570561336I actually considered making a bigger arena, with 7 provinces in a honeycomb pattern so that there's another strategical element to it, but I didn't know if there would even be any interest in the concept so I didn't bother. I'll get around to making that map if the game turns out well, could be interesting.I have no idea how multiple armies are handled. I've never seen more than 3 people, where obviously one will have to fight two opponents. With a bit of luck the game is smart enough to pair up fresh armies against fresh armies whenever possible.
>>570561336it used to be in order of nation id but iirc it's totally random now
>>570561784>aquarius = airWhy the fuck would AQUArius = air. Shit literally means water
>>570563717>Why the fuck would AQUArius = air. Shit literally means waterask the greeks bro.btw speaking of rahu, i just noticed this. what a coincidence.
>>570545959Yeah honestly after expansion testing a bit it seems a bit shit. Idk I really want to use this guy but everything I want is like hard to path.

Common Itza L. If you want to build a fort on a throne, get a real army to defend it next time.

>>570504335I'm trying to put together a pretender for this and I'm fucking puzzled.A big awake pretender and turboblessed sacreds seem like the obvious answer, but I bet there's going to be plenty of unholy weapons around.So maybe tone down the bless and go for more standard army? But still you have to be able to deal with the hordes of turbo blessed sacreds that will also be there. And you'd also be giving up the arena for like half of the game while you build up an army and get some buffs and magic items.Yomi could be very strong because one of their biggest weaknesses, cracking forts open, isn't a concern. But how well do dai oni perform against a shitload of greatsword of sharpness wielding sacred thugs with unholy weapons? On the other hand, the classic counter of mass cleansing water casters will be a lot less effective, because people can't just gear up to hard counter you specifically without opening up themselves to getting wrecked by everyone else.What resistances do you even get? You can't possibly protect against everything. And if you try, someone going hard into something might still get through.Decisions, decisions
>>570504335Inb4 someone pops a fort in the arena.
>>570504335>>570559194Would you consider adding better casting AI at least? The concept's great but I'm uninterested in playing the game at all without that mod at this point.

>Have a province that has 2 death scales in it for 10+ turns>Cast Dark Knowledge there>No new sites were found:|
>>570576258New rules:>if there is a fort in the arena, whoever is sieging it counts as being is control of the province and gains the victory point>demolishing the fort grants 3 points and removes 3 points from whoever originally built it, even if they had long since lost it>>570576667Sounds like a good idea>>>>>>>R'lyehPls notice that there isn't a single water province in this map. Or at least I didn't select "water" for any, so I'm pretty sure the random terrain will be chosen among land terrains only. If the game turns out well I'll put together something fancier and more flexible, but this time it's just a quick land only thing

>have a blast coming up with fun new build ideas while I'm not in any games>eventually remember that this game ruins my sleep because i'm too eager to see the new turn and can't get back to sleep if i wake up in the middle of the nighthow to reconcile this stupid game destroying my body?
>>570581617Just don't wake up in the middle of the night
>>570581617This game actually helps my sleep schedule sometimes, the caveat being I don't wake up in the middle of the night.>have to get up at 5 AM on weekdays>usually sleep in 2-3 hours on weekends and suffer for it on monday>instead I instantly pop out of bed to open turns if phone showed me I had anyNothing like the first sunrise rays beaming on the screen as it shows how hard my opponent got owned

Mother Oak says its increasing Growth by 2 in the province its cast in. I did cast it like 10-20 turns ago, in a game with SCBM and by now virtually all of my massive number of provinces, 40-50% of the game map, have 2 more growth then I initially had. Is the bug the +2 growth in ALL my Provinces, or the description of MOak?
>>570617408>Where could I find this discord to play with other shitters?Most of the discords crosspost game recruitment ads to each other so you'll end up in most of them, and noob games are pretty common. You'll probably want to avoid Dominions Nexus (it's the trooncord whose owner has an explicit agenda) but can't go wrong starting with dominions game hub and clockwork hounds (Lucid's server is also good but is the tryhard tourney place).You could also just hop into games here. The average /domg/ vet is less of a noob and more of an unmotivated deadbeat, so as long as you're putting in the effort to learn and optimize you should place decently in no time.
