Glorious Vanilla 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Our pastebin (extremely outdated)https://pastebin.com/wjbSA98Y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>>572072321

Are any of the construction units okay-ish? from what i have seen here so far 2/3 of all magic spells could be removed and you guys wouldnt bat an eye
I CANT BELIEVE THE ARENA HAD AN ORGY
>>572766875Not really although they do get bonuses from golem cultSiege golem is good tho
>>572766875Not unless you're playing on DE.
>>572766875>2/3 of all magic spells could be removed and you guys wouldnt bat an eyeMore like 1/3rd, but yeah. There are spells in there you'll cast every chance you'll get, and some that may have a tiny niche/desperate use case you'll cast once in 2000 hours (and others don't even have that much).
>>572767132I can. Things are wild in there.
What clown summoned demons on one of my provinces
>>572767956What does that add for construction?
>>572768501me. eat shit freak.
do multiple eye shields work
Hey Ulm, I'm getting off that fort at 32 you wanted, you can siege it down now.
>>572768745Too many things to list, the construction spell list is like an order of magnitude greater than what it is in vanilla, most of which are national spells, but there are a bunch of new generic spells too. Clockworks are a bit better now since they get reinvigoration and you can summon more of them if you have high levels of earth, and there's a mage commander unit you can summon that will produce a couple of clockwork soldiers a turn that quickly pays for itself. And in general, things that suck are either better or cheaper. Crushers are 6 earth gems instead of 10 for example. Also, it makes flaming arrows a construction spell, that one took me a while to figure out where it went. But the biggest change to construction is that items are generally much more affordable, especially if they're bad in vanilla, so you can build things like the Sling of Accuracy without feeling too bad about it because it's only a single air gem.
>>572773673Do you recommend the one in hinaserver or the lastest github version?
>>572766875>from what i have seen here so far 2/3 of all magic spells could be removed and you guys wouldnt bat an eyethat's the problem with a game that has 1000+ spells, you simply can't make all of them competitive without having the game be completely homogenized.to answer your question though, there are some good ones. iron gryphons are pretty great during siege defenses because they have a breath attack and are very tough to chew throughmandragoras will put any tough entity to sleep if they can get around dying to fireshieldiron dragons are very good but 25 gems is probably a bit overcosted but they are a fire breathing trampler with 150 hp though. divine name them and give them chainsjuggernauts are good if you need help with banishments. innate casting h3 will kill a hell of a lot of shit if you have a good banishmentsiege golems have 2 shatter attacks on a tanky chassis so it's generally cheaper to use them vs immobiles than it is to try and kit out a commander to survive getting to the backlinepoison golems are amazing, all the resists and a banefire shield is nuts but they cost almost as much as a wraith lord so it's real hard to justify summoning them
>>572775749Go for the github one. The hinaserver version is four updates behind. One age is also cringe as fuck.
>>572777565https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3573024949Also this is a map I found that has spawn locations for everything in DE. It's of course absurdly huge as a result.
>>572758782Always weird seeing my random noise getting translated directly.
>>572780171It's cute!
>>572758782Slut
>>572766875Mechanical Men are quite solid.
>>572766875juggernauts are high kirk overpowered
>>572757889frogge
>>572772137>>572772137>>572772137Answer me you swine!!!!!!
>>572800418Freg
>>572800682no. Items of the same name do not stack. I think extra Arms are the only exception? Everything else needs to be a different item. Some things also don’t naturally stack, corpse explosions don’t stack, fire shields don’t stack, damage reversals don’t stack, the game picks the version that is harder to resist, so if Eye shield is stronger than the Eye Vengeance of the unit it will be used, but otherwise no. If you want a stronger Eye Vengeance, you need Penetration, or lower magic resistance (on the enemy)
>>572802021Vine of entanglement it is then
>>572780171if you made a cute merrow sketch it would surely be turned into numerous pieces of art
Thinking about finally picking up Dom6 since it's on sale on Steam at the moment, just not sure if I have the time for it right now. Although, I do remember reading that there were quite a few interesting changes/updates.
What do you do with the various gems you don't really have a use for, besides just converting it to something that you can actually use.As an example, in a SP game I've unintentionally stockpiled 80 air gems as Marverni and I've got no acess to an air mage, so I figure I should just convert everything to something useable.
>>572806554Or you could empower a mage in air to get access to cross path rituals and artifacts?
>>572805385I believe in you anon
Mod games start when?
Last chance to join EA vanilla game!https://hinaserver.net/game/63We start 04.07.26 11:00 UTC, with one lvl1 throne for each player, one lvl2 throne for every 2 players and one lvl3 throne for every 3 players (with the classic half the points needed). Minor story events are ON!
>>572758782Based chuds
>>572766875Pretty situational, good for padding, honestly losing crushers due to low morale is just more of a blow to yourself than the enemy. Clockwork horrors I found a good middle ground but they need a lot of micro. I think for an UW heading inland, they perform their functions well and contribute effectively, if you’re a land based it’s highly situational and oftentimes other summons do the job better with the gems you saved instead
>>572810329thank you, Miku
>>572808148Waiting for more players, since there’s so many nations. I would like at least 10
The game should only have MA factions
Andra-chan!
I like that there's 3 different ecosystems to choose from with their own little meta. I agree that it's kind of overwhelming at first, but civilized people understand that MA is the default and purest era.I like the lore of all the different nations changing over the eras.I don't really feel much difference in terms of "high magic vs low magic". It would be cool if LA was borderline sci fi with aliens and lasers and space marines.
>>572818293Just play shadow Empire
>only like one faction>cant play with other anons because said era never gets pickedSee where i am going with this?
>>572818681idk I feel like we get a good spread of eras EA is probably the most popular it feels like
>>572818681Noobs fear the Late Age chad
>>572818737EA - is for the plebsMA - Is for the middle classLA - is for the patricians
>>572818003Cute!!
>>572818003CUTE
>>572818003>Meanwhile the average Andramanian male
Kinda odd all magic spells are the SAME in all eras, surely EA shouldnt be able to construct mechanical dragons or clockwork soldiers?
>>572820734The mechanical units are still powered by magic.They are more like golems than robots
>>572820734EA Arco is rather advanced for example
>>572816954Players always seem to magically appear mere hours before the game start
>>572824195I just dont want to commit just to abandon later
Farewell, you did good work.[SPOILER]Should have sent him to die in the Arena[/SPOILER]
>>572824529WHORE
>>572818003man why does andramania receive such outstanding high quality art, where is the justice
>>572825245Because they're the strongest of the era?
>>572826109all the reason they shouldn't receive good art, crowning the victor isn't the done thing
>>572826835It's because of the large crossover between artists and furrys. Obviously
>>572824227You think this is a one time thing? Now that I am here, modded games are gonna be the norm

>>572818003the owning of pets isn't vegan btw looks like that serene-one is just on a plant-based diet.......
>>572836702It's a parrot, they're everywhere
>>572836772and they just so happen to have a perch right there? and the parrot is so accustomed to their presence they're not skittish? sounds like you are being a bit dishonest here....
>>572836925Andramanians are more human than humans so who are we to judge
>>572837353i, a vegan, can judge them because they sit in their "serene garden" jacking off all day about having some moral highground and no longer submitting to their base desires and yet they still oppress the natural order of the world by owning pets. sad shit.
>>572837448I thought vegans didn't have issues with owning pets, they just call it "cohabitating with companion animals" or something because pet is a derogatory term. In any case, it's a bird, it can fly away if it wants to.
>>572838102>In any case, it's a bird, it can fly away if it wants to.ah, a fallacy. many people use this logic to justify the owning of bees and eating their honey. "they can just fly away" but in almost all honey farms the queens wings are clipped.... same thing with owning a bird, you ruin their chances of ever surviving in the wild by owning them as pets and ruining their natural instincts. if it were to fly away it would just die. watch the movie Manderlay (2005) for a good humanist-centered representation of this paradigm as so it will more impart itself into your carnist brain
>Ulm hates magic>Has no issues with their smiths casting spells>Or using magic gems to craft enchanted gear>Or summoning an iron angel???
>>572839736they dislike magic but have allowed earth magic because they consider it the only respectable form of magic.
>>572839736They're hypocrites
>>572840351And it is, earth is under our feet all the time
>>572836702Serene Ones aren't vegans, they don't eat meat because Cynocephalians used to be corpse eating oonga boongas who lived nearly naked in caves, and after their race was uplifted by Ind this disgusts them so much they've gone in the opposite direction and refuse to consume flesh in any form, to the detriment of their carnivorous bodies.

lotta niggas itt struggle to deal with normal ai
>>572861091How? You make one thug and you beat them forever
>>572861176Yeah what LOSER would struggle vs AI haha. . .
>>572862225you need to BELIEVE IN YOURSELF some more ulmite.
>>572862225Ulm relies very heavily on thugging and construction.You need to learn the art of the thug. If you can make a thug with overwheling defense or protection + the relevant elemental resistances vs the enemies mages, the ai will never be able to counter it.Earth is also a good path for thugging, giving you big prot buffs and reinvigoration
>>572862591The instant AI starts taking provinces back i drop my spaghetti all over and fumbleI should play a water nation instead to be left the fuck alone>>572862658I am ONLY researching conjuration to try and chug out clockwork units
>>572862783pump prov defense
>>572862658thugging you say?
>>572862861By buying masons? but those dont help me kill the invader forces
>>572862783>I am ONLY researching conjuration to try and chug out clockwork unitsIf you are having fun go ahead, but this is a bonkers plan. The clockwork men fall asleep too fast. They are mostly an early panic button to fill numbers or a niche counter unit for specific threats.But sending a horde of them at somebody does sound very amusing, there's much wore things you could spam.Also yeah you need to pump your province defense up on your borders with ai nations. It feels like they are dogpiling you because they decide who to attack based on what they perceive the weakest provinces they border are
>>572863291https://illwiki.com/dom5/game-mechanics/province-defence
>>572863048Das riteA thug is a commander that has been given cost effective items to do a task. Tasks range from taking undefended provinces, to defeating enemy raiding groups and with enough items to defeat medium sized armies that have some mages supporting them.Generally you want a thug to have high hp and magic paths that are good for buffing (nature, earth, glamor, air, water), though not every thug needs mage paths
>>572862225>19k gold bankedYou'd do a lot better in a new run if you set up forts as you expanded so you could turn all that money into armies/mages. Gold is useless without forts (or foreign recruit provs but Ulm's not that kind of nation) to convert it to power.Also if you're folding due to being overwhelmed by a bunch of small armies, you'd need to work on getting comfy with splitting up into multiple (but still stronger) armies yourself to squish their raids and then take wide sweeps of land yourself.

>>572933819The Shattering is based on Eldenring and contains a number of “factions” from the game turned into Nations, such as Caelid, Mogwyn Palace, Volcano Manor and even Godwyn the Golden’s ‘dead’ body acting as a Eldergate equivalent, for the Rune of Death. Every faction (more or less) has subfactions that unlock new units, spells and dominion effects depending on which unique Pretender you chose to represent the nation. The best example is choosing between Godwyn’s corpse as the Prince of Death, letting you recruit powerful death knights Deathbed Companion seducers and a forgotten aspect/alter ego that is tied to Sleep Magic, letting you recruit doctor saints and ready-made thugs with Aura of Sleep and no Domkill.The mod also includes indies, like Demi-humans and minor lords
>>572906468Cute
>>572934359Gonna try it out for a couple of SP rounds, assuming the AI doesnt bug out with custom units or such
Thats alot of submods uh
>>572934976Okay, apparently they all have the same folder name, i am not supposed to use all these together or i am just stupid?
>>572906468>this is still the best erytheia art
>>572935282You can use them all at the same time. Dominions only really cares about the dm files and not where they are
>>572937240fitting>>572937452apparently the latest version includes all those in the main folder, its me being retarded
Andramania!!!! Stop playing in 8 other games at once and do your larp age turn!!!!!!
TOO MANY GAMES TO PICK FROM AHHHH
>>572938256Do you see the other ending their turn? To me it seems like it is everyone’s fault the game is slowing down
>>572938952Don't worry, none of them will ever start anyway
UBAR YOU JERK
>>572925313yeah, im on meds, how did you tell
>>572940004I haven't even got a single point yet. Even though I've won like 8 battles. I am so cursed by the turn order. On the plus side, I have spread much suffering, and thats going to keep happening.
>>572924047>in 4 games>have already joined four of theseSlow it down man, it takes time to play Dominions
>>572940280Now Abysia knows you're in there.
Hey admin. Next time it could be cool if total battles won was kept track off too, even if it doesn't count towards who wins at the end, unless its too much effort.I wanna know just how bad my return on investment has been
>>572940280It was supposed to be MY big moment, my grand return, you BUFOON
>>572940972Bring more mages bro. Or maybe don't, you don't wanna end up like me lol.
>>572941027they were busy researching a global spell, but now that someone else has done me the favor of actually casting it they have free time to murder
>>572940437The supply must keep up with the demand. The vets yearn for games, I provide, but then the vets are already tied in games and cannot join more. Those first three games are waiting for a minimum of 10 players, but it seems I have misjudged the demand. So the games will start soon and if we have last minute additions that’s fine. Problem is the map being a bit large as it is. I will look a bit and if I cannot find a satisfying replacement I will launch regardless
MA ConfluenceMA SturmEA ModMadness (SNM modpack) Will being in 25 hours. Don’t worry if your nation feels weak or gimmicky, if we are in agreement, I can boost the province income so we aren’t limited by gold
RULES CLARIFICATION NEEDEDHow exactly do Agartha's crazy gods work? I know they are uncontrollable, but when they conquer a province, does it become neutral territory or part of Agartha? In the first case they're essentially doom horrors, originating from Agartha but not actually Agartha. But on the second case they're actively expanding territory for Agartha, so them attacking other islands would go against the rules>>572940925I'll do a round of suggestions after the game is finished.I'm not sure about that one, though. It's a lot of counting, and also hard to define. Does it count as a battle if your army wipes the 1 PD the previous guy left before retreating?
Boss i am very spooked right now
>>572942790Neutral
>>572942250I would have loved to join two of those but I have two big business trips coming up sadlyhope to see more like this in the future
>>572942790>Does it count as a battle if your army wipes the 1 PD the previous guy left before retreating?If you did have the effort to keep track, I'd just keep it as simple as possible. Any battle that happens that a player won would count
>>572943158So uh, what happens when this fucking thing decides to invade player islands lmao
>>572943878I can take them in a fight, surely they are just a mild inconvenience at this state of the game?
Bow down vanilla_crEAmailures, I will have a throne secured before ANY of you!
>>572944089That is a mournful cap circle.My condolences bats but illwinter hates you.
>TURN 29 OF THE ARENAShit's getting serious over here. Agartha has broken the seal, casting the world into darkness and releasing three pissed off bastards, one of which is sitting on my capital right now.Vanheim once again withdrew from the arena, and Ur took it without resistance.Ubar attacked and quickly annihilated Ur, whose had a good army but unfortunately neither able to see in the darkness nor resistant to fire storms and other various massed evocations.Then came in Muspelheim. Despite the minimal magic support they almost won with sheer muscle. But a few djinni flew right to the rear of the giants and manage to fight their way through the rear guard until they could kill the commander and mages, making the entire army rout.For the first time, Mictlan finally steps into the arena with an army of sacreds. Despite taking heavy losses to some close range evocations, they close the gap and kill all the Ubar mages.Caelum attacked the arena with a small force and a couple unimpressive generals with thug equipment. It doesn't work.Point for Mictlan!And a round of applause for Ubar, the last one still with 0 points.Fortunately for Agartha, since the mad gods are effectively neutrals who don't capture provinces under Agartha's flag, them getting into other people's islands does not break the rules. The play is legal, the game continues.>>572943165 Thanks bud.
>>572943350Like I said, I aim to maintain the trend set by my Nationgen games: there will always be at least one Nationpack mod game available, alongside a Divinitus game (because it is my favourite mod).
>take a look around the arena>most capitals are full to the brim with huge armiesIt's gonna be hell from here on, isn't itAlso, current state of the arena
>>572944460>And a round of applause for Ubar, the last one still with 0 points.Yeah illwinter has done me 0 favours so far. I'm not allowed any points unless I win at least 4 battles in one turn.However! Shaytan numbers are looking damn fine, and the Lich Queen is always ready for more!I may finish dead last, but everybody will hate me for something by the end!
>>572944553>Divinitus gameI just took a peek at the mod and holy batman, every pretender is souped up like a proper god
>>572944089>xil is in cavernsdoxxed and noted
>>572945928You have already found my location..I feel as if, I have already lost...Am I facing against..The legendary Victorious Shinuyama..?
>>572944089Praying for a level 3 and a troglodytes province
>>572946390Cynos on the throne and knights on the surface province!
>>572806682Thanks, I didn't even know you could empower into different paths, I just assumed it was genetic like in Avatar.Can anyone opine how relevant this guide from Dom4 is for Marverni?https://dom4.fandom.com/wiki/EA_Marveni_Sequani_Sequani_Revolution
>>572946525It's mostly fine. Stellar Cascades is significantly nerfed now compared to dom 4 though
>>572946525You could play marverni hyper focusing on astral if you want, you'd look like a pretty easy target while you are trying to tech up though playing scales though.I havent expansion tested marverni in dom 6, but expansion is harder that it used to be, so I dunno how good scales expansion is for them.Bless marverni pig factory style is just more fun though in my opinion
>>572946684Yeah I've read about that, but the strat seemed solid and cooler than the MAEK BOAR W/ BLESS.Like I love pork but I love hordes of empowered tattooed suicidal celts backed by druidic magics a lot more.
>>572947074I'd say there's room to do both effectively.Just taking the larger bless for the pigs gives them a purpose (trampling units up to 5 size), and they are great for filling up forts without bleeding you with upkeep.
>>572947074>cooler than MAEK BOARTrue happiness lies in porcine holiness.They're a prime candidate for meme blesses, too.
>>572947329>>572947271I'll give that a try in SP because I do like tinkering with all the various blessess and I like the boar warriors and the boars themselves. I think I just dislike how whenever I look up anything about marverni it's always about the boars, the link about the Sequani being the exception.
>>572947609The 2 ways I only ever see Marv played is either hellbless bacon meme lord style - blood vengeance, death explosion, larger, fear or expander (usually big pig) with a modest bless for pigs or mages - hard skin or reinvig + ele resistances
>>572945215Best mod ever made, every pretender (except like 5, of which 2 are the new ones from the game update and the other 3 he just didn’t get to yet) is unique and has a powerful gimmick. Dagon makes deep ones immigrants displace coastal and sea provinces as local recruits and Fanatical Deep Ones (Marignon fanatics but with Deep One chassi) dom spawn.New Pretender for Abysia, Emissary of Antrax, is immobile, being confined to a summoning circle, but if you summon the King of Banefires he becomes mobile, two for the price of one; he also makes all your temples produce fire and death gems and lets you recruit fire-death mages.New Generic Pretender Returned King, immobile undead wizard that anoints a random undead commander into a Holy 1 priest. Insanely powerful for nations like Ermor and LA Ulm, but any nation that can summon Banes and Wights will like him. And many many more options, some compliment a specific Nation, some are just a nice bonus on top of a powerful Chassi, some completely change your game plan.
can i get a qrd on what kills a bronze colossus?
>>572951564Shatter or thugs with that earth hammer that deals bonus damage to constructs.
>>572951564Like 3 flyers with 6 Smashers distributed between them, the hard part is protecting the payload.
>>572951962>>572951830>have no e magicguess i just lose, what a bitch.maybe someone will trade for some smashers
>>572952796Try and curse it maybe? Could help. Probably not much
>>572952796Could trade, could empower in earth, could overpower it with raw stats, if you make it rout via casualties it will instantly die because it is mindless (unless mindless pretenders are immune? I forgot), it is easier to kill in your own dominion if you can lure it there
>>572953729wont die from route until it's the turn 120(?) 'everyone dies' end of battle condition but good luck getting to that before your own dudes run.
>>572954306Doable with skellyspam, assuming the colossus isn't dropping rain of stones or wrathful skies or something. But it could be doing that
>TWO bathwater pretenders
>>572952796Yeah the lack of ability to deal with mindless inanimates early without using E is a big flaw in the magic system; D does have disintegrate but that's quite late. I'd love to see all of the elemental paths having some method of dealing with it, albeit shittier methods than what E gets.
>>572952796Duskdaggers and Gatecleavers work well if you have big guys to hand them to, as well.
>>572954573The colossus will stay until the absolute end of battle due to being mindless, so besides their buffs falling off at twilight on round 100 they'll stay until round 200 after all of your dudes have run; if they have phoenix pyre, soul drain or other bullshit up then killing them after twilight is a great plan, but you still need to kill the base + kitted chassis at that time. That's not trivial.
>>572955946And neither are the most OnlyFans nations in the lobby.
>>572944089Lol I can’t take this faction seriously no matter whatStay underground you overgrown bat!
>>572939116WE STARTED (vanilla)
>>572940004Keep your commanders safe you fool
>>572964120a little blood wont stop me
>>572946384So.. this is the power of /domg/ vets. Lol
>>572965376Your rear is very susceptible to heavy flyer attacks, maybe put your guys on hold and attack flyers if you suspect flyer stuff
i'm gonna hold and attack your rear you little slut
>>572967256Watch out guys, we got a power bottom over here
>>572966846Thats what bodyguards are for! Right?
>>572943158
>>572970127Is that really a smart move? nuking your capital for 3 souped units? or its more like a "get fucked you will all lose with me" button?
>>572971209It doesnt seem to be that bad when I tried it in a practice game
>>572971461It would kinda be a shame to see it die so fast.
Happy libertitty day
>>572971209
I got a good feeling about the next arena turn bros.
>>572975559I'm feeling something all right after seeing the message from Agartha.
What is this about an arena game
>>572980515We get an island of provinces that all connect to a central province. If you control the central province you get a point but everyone is fighting over it
>>572967982Lol.. 5 guys against 20, play to your enemies weaknesses, not his strengths
I kind of hate how long it can take to get to a specific research tier to do things. I get the point of advancement as the game goes on but it feels like your a bit helpless when you don't have that one thing to stack the odds.
>>572973705FALCONPUUUUNCH
>>572981224I wish you could "overspecialize" in one type of research, lock all other options from the start and get massive boost in one branch, i hate having to get lv5 from this lv8 from that then lv3 from another
>>572981501>>572981224Without a time delay you'd just have turbo cancer wiping armies immediately. It's a necessary evil and I wish battlefield wide spells didnt even exist cause it's basically whoever rushes them and who has the answer for them that wins games, I want more focus on units hitting each other instead of cheesey research timing wins
>>572982186which is the good battle field wipe spell because I tried the lvl 7 firestorm and it was stinky
>>572983445Firestorm, Foul vapors, Wrathful skies, Wind of Death, Wailing Winds, Rain of stones, Bonegrinding, Earthquake, Rigor Mortis, Grip of Winter, Heat from Hell.Whichever of these you have access to that the enemy is weak to
>>572980515>everyone gets a few provinces, with a single connection to the great arena province>each player's section is private and off limits>the great arena is the only place to fight over>holder gets a point>50 turns only, fast research, gold and resources multiplierHere's the game, you can see the brief but strict rules in the link on the sidehttps://hinaserver.net/game/50It was a wild concept idea but it's turning out to be pretty fun. I'll host a MA arena game afterwards.>>572983715I saw 4 of those at the same time in a battle short ago, I think one with Ubar. The arena is fucking hell at this point
HOLY SHIT THE ARENA SANK
Uh, did the dominions wiki just died?
Pelagia in vanilla_crEAm do your turn
>>572990849Works on my machine.
>>572990849yes it dies cause of crawlers/ai niggas overwhelming their hamsterwheel server
>>572991518fuck>>572991574what the fuck would an AI look for in a dominions wiki? erotica fanfic?
>>572991656they literally just copy every single bit of text on the internet and use that as a probabilistic model to decide on what to typeit's incredibly cringe
games.hinaserver.net:10018games.hinaserver.net:10018games.hinaserver.net:10018New not-sombre Warhammer game
>>572992820What's the difference between sombre and not sombre?
>>572992954not sombre is better because sombre is a total retard that made nice sprites.
>>572993818That doesnt actually explain why it is "better" you know
Updated just today btw
>>572994586Do the chaos factions have chaos god pretenders yet?
>>572994020Depending on who you ask, Sombre's Warhammer is inferior because of questionable additions and his lack of experience with multiplayer, or because he's a huge faggot.
>>572995860>and his lack of experience with multiplayerShit too strong, too weak, doesnt work?
>>572995617No, Sombre "doesn't like making pretenders" and WMG (warhammermodfag) didn't get around to making someBiggest omission of the mod desu I need my Gork titan
>>572996076Pretty sure he admits he mostly plays singleplayer. Take that as you will.
>>572986782Thats easy research for you
>>572997501Gee if only i had the fucking gems to use the big boy spells
>>572992124So THIS is what those gay ai databases are for
>>572997612I told you to fucking site search and that you would get btfo late game if you didnt have good gem income! Coasting off early victories.. Everyone saw very easy research and knew what was up lol
>>572997794I am gonna storm the arena in turn 50 and win by those sweet 5 points, you just wait, nobody else can match me in points anymore
>>572994020>That doesnt actually explain why it is "better" you knowSombre basically had zero knowledge of multiplayer and only the foggiest idea of balance around it, and he also liked Dwarfs so he just them the strongest. And Sombre was the guy on the Dominions 6 team that infamously said "Why buff items when we can just nerf them?" He is a total retard long story short, like I told you earlier
>>573003847Uh, a main dev also making a side mod for the game? interesting
What is a Pretender to a non-believer?
long time coe player finally getting into dominions. it seems like the game has a heavy focus on mp, yeah? how long did you anons mess with the sp before making the move to mp?
>>5730104912 hours, tops
>>573010491I had a few frens throw me into a MP game with them almost immediately where they held my hand the entire time, and then I was thrown into the next /domg/ game that opened up and played sim city for 90 turns. I never gave a lot of attention to SP outside of doing tests or learning a nation
when is this fish fucker gonna take their turn
>>573003847>>572996585So its broken as shit? sounds fun for SP then
>>573011186>I had a few frensanon it isn't polite to brag..
>>573011186Look at mister friends guy
>>573004234He only got on the beta testing team because he made real nice sprites for his Warhammer Mod, he contributed 0% to Dominions 6
PELAGIA TAKE YOUR TURN YOU USELESS OCEAN SHIT WATER BREATHING SEAHORSEFUCKER
>>573013224Lol are we still waiting for that bitch? Sheesh>>573010491I recommend picking a faction and winning a throne game or two first before thinking seriously about MP honestly, that said its up to you, but its shallow water vs deep end learning curve, pick your poison
Yep time to join two more mp games and go smorc with my noobness
>>573008650a giant rock with mysterious powers or an imprisoned old man

>>573008650A pretender
I once made a singleplayer game with max nations and set them all to player-controlled and played the first 12 turns with them.
That is...a lot of ethereal lifedrains
>>573017171>each one summoned one at a time at EA Agartha's speedsThat is almost 300 mage turns (and 400 D gems) worth of giga ghosts, what the hell.
what are the odds
>>573017171I am sorry Agartha i didnt knew you were so based
Oh sorry.. Was I supposed to give my prophet a funny name? Assbandit the 7th or something? Hes a prophet. He could have the name of a soup kitchen fry cook and it would make no difference to me. its not like I know how anyway
>>573017171>Yep, that's me. You're probably wondering how I ended up in this situation.>>573017873>each one summoned one at a time100 gems would be a bit much if breaking the seal only summoned the three stooges...

>>573024645 thanks lol
I keep wanting to get into caelum, but I've ben consistently failing to ever expand with this nation, mammoths or not, spire horns spam, iceclad/storm warriors, nothing works consistently enough to get at least 12 provinces a year without awake monster. Please spoonfeed me, I can't live this down.
>>573017171>>573017873Breaking the seal initially only summons the penumbrals then the bad guys come out, it's not all summoned
>>573027538Then take an awake monster. I did well with dracodick. I'm not autistic enough to make a bless just for expansion that sucks.
>>573027538separate your spirehorns into different groups to maximize the chance attack rear worksMorale bonus bless can be useful, and its easy to underestimate how many caelians you need. Almost all expansion in dominions is about razor edge margins, but here you take extra attrition from not having overwhelming force so you should look for a balance. You can get 20 without a monster or any helpful bless, good luck
>>573023032It's okay he lived and I have a healer indie mage I got from an event so I'm not raped with all these afflictions even though the host is a COWARD VANILLA ENJOYER and we dont have slops recuperation on tendies
>>573028406Thanks for advice, I will test that. I kind of have my doubts given humungous attrition spirehorn take constantly against even shittiest of indies I think they will rout even faster when split, but this is better than anything I've come up with.
I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.
>>573029021it works, I am a certified caelum enjoyer with a couple MA caelum wins, one of which wasn't even against /domg/ veterans
Does anyone play Ragha anymore?
vanilla_crEAm prophet names are here! Cast your votes:https://strawpoll.com/wAg3Q4WNly8
is ea ubar the only magic power nation
>>573031967I like them but it's pretty hard to feel good about them when their best mages are in cold but their best sacreds are in hot. Just a very clunky experience. They should be more like muspelheim instead of this weird shit. Maybe their capital could have an inverted temperature scale and sacreds can be any fort but double dom cost so you cant get too many
>>572997501>>572997612That was what I was going for: easy access to anything you might want, but a hard limit on how much of it you can put out. Gotta make choices.>>573027538M8 what the fuck are you doing, Caelum expands wonderfully.>two squads of each 20 spear birds set to hold > attack rearMost indies always do the same: commanders sit at the back while the troops advance. The two squads give you a big chance to snipe the commanders.Just make sure to avoid barbarians, heavy cavalry, and the other couple types of indies where the commander likes to move with the horde.Don't go for the cheapest, militia spears and also not for the more expensive. Simply regular birb spearmen will do>mammothsPretty much everything expect barbarians and large amounts of heavy cavalry melts under 2-3 mammoths. You just need some extra birds to draw fire and distract the enemy in melee so the mammoths don't get nuked as soon as they reach the enemy.>icecladToo expensive and their attack damage is laughable. The extra staying power helps in large battles, where you want to drag things out while your mages thunderize everyone, but they're pointless in expansion.You also have flying. Delay your first mage and go hard on expansion parties and scouts. Use your scouts to spot bottlenecks and go straight for those (assuming they're not barbarians or the other tough stuff). Localize your neighbors quickly and capture provinces strategically to block their expansion in your direction. You want to encircle as many provinces as possible. You can finish capturing them later.When some parties start breaking, combine them into a single attack on some weak province, then merge them under a single commander and send the other commanders back to the capital to lead new parties. Use the turns not needing commanders for more scouts.Caelum is one of those nations that can easily hit 20 provinces expansion without a bless or an awake expander. Just be opportunistic and greedy.
>>573033015why are barbarians the real demons of this game
Gnight domg>>573034409Civ reference
>TURN 30 OF THE ARENAAgartha is back and means serious business!Ubar's Winds of Death bullshit weakened Mictlan and C'tis finished moping up.Agartha then arrived and proceeded to wreck two armies back to back. First C'tis, whose proud army melted right away under the assault of way too many life draining bastards with too many buffs.Same with Lanka right afterwards. That Asura was lucky to have casted personal flight.
which nations are the closest to inventing the computer
>>573034998There's not much to picture from the battles. All those umbrals simply walked right over both armies and deleted them step by step.We'll see how long until someone shows up with cleansing waters! Until then, it looks like Agartha might be able to score a few points.Point for Agartha!
>>573034998 I cast flight because my guy almost didnt get to rout last time since he got caught on enemy units and I learned from my mistake
>>573034998>Ubar's Winds of Death bullshit weakened MictlanDelicious revenge. Frankly I'm really surprised I seem to be the only person who chose an immortal pretender. It's not doing much to get me any points but my kill count ever grows
>>573035829I dont think immortal pretenders help at all in a fight over one spot thing. I always thought immortals are more for risk free counter raiding and mobility stuff
>>573035934>I dont think immortal pretenders help at all in a fight over one spot thingThe only reason it's not working to that purpose is because I kept choosing bad turns to contest the arena and invested too much doing it.All those jag warriors that killed me last turn are dead now and that does indirectly increase my odds later.I just borked up too many times when it mattered to take advantage of the damage I'm doing.Most people haven't sent their god to the arena at all this game, because they have big blesses attached to them they can't risk. And since Ubar can't really use a bless anyway, I'd say the Lich Queen is doing exactly what I wanted her to.
>>573036347you're so raped lol
>>573036983See you in the arena. :)
>>573036347Yeah, was pretty unlucky how out of three times you've seriously contested the arena, two of them it happened to be right as Abysia arrived with a hard counter bless. And the third one you kinda killed too many of your own guys
>>573037308And the last one I had to chew through a hefty Ur and Muspel army before hitting Mictlans first arena entrance with like 150 fresh jaguar warriors.It's annoying, but I knew it could happen when I joined. It is still very fun getting to do all the asshole Ubar stuff without getting dogpiled like you would in a normal game.
>>573035102Probably La Ulm or Marignon
Whats the max possible size you can do on a normal human size chassis? Bless included. I know about Enlarge and the Larger bless, but that only gets you up to 5, anything else. I want to clown on Giants as a regular man.
>>573039246You will NEVER get a muspel wife
>>573034409I got to thinking that Barbarians that have berserk/have no morale might not have a martial weakness
>>573039246Pretty sure that's it, unfortunately
>>573035102Rlyeh
>>573039246Enlarge stacks with larger?
>>573039246>clown on giantsYou dont seem to understandSize is a caveat if the unit is inferior
>>573039246Enlarge, Larger, Amulet of Giants and Crown of Titans, Midget’s Revenge. The Amulet only boosts your size to a max of 6 and the Revenge Amulet only works on Size 2s or smaller. Enlarge and Larger do not stack
>>573039690Sometimes spell effects stack with bless effects. Regeneration can for example. Not sure if larger works but I think so
>>573040042Larger bless doesnt stack with other larger.I don't think any largeness buffs stack regardless of source
Why do people shit on stygian skin all the time?
>>573041629It gets obsoleted if your nation has earth/nature magic to buff prot, and the magic weapons weakness.It's extremely cost effective as part of an expansion bless though and magic weapons bless is far rarer now than it used to be.I think it's pretty good desu.

>>573042738>checking settingsAin't nobody got time for that. I click on the little soldier and if I don't have enough gold or resources, then I don't recruit him.Start it up
>>573034998>C'tis, whose proud army melted right away under the assault of way too many life draining bastards with too many buffs.My fucking chariots. At least the mages made it out alive this time.
>>572952796And then, as if the game hears my pleas, from out of nowhere...
>>573046465Don't give up, my lizard friend. Yours is the chariot that will pierce the heavens
>>573042738Joined modmadness last minute as the walking bricksSomeone better than me should pick the dinosaurs, I wanna see their gimmick in action
>>573046465Where were your serpent dancers?All you had to do was listen.
>>573048382I'll keep on trying, it's the least I can do. But I really do need to figure out what my mages should do besides throw 10000 skeletons at the enemy. That isn't working too well right now.>>573048571Dancing in the temple for the amusement of my tendie probably.
>>573048497What's their gimmick? They didn't really catch my eye at all
>>573048714They've got a moving capital and a giant trampling world-turtle that it moves with.
>>573048683C'tis basic play is Foul Vapors. The skeletons are there to make the battle last longer while the vapors kill everyone except you, since you've got built in poison resistance.A few assorted evocations like shadow bolts and blasts also help a lot against tougher targets.
>>573048782Though also on the note of dinosaurs, Mahabre was another one I was tempted to pick. They get to turn their mages into T-rexes lategame. All the national chassis seem kinda crazy, especially combined with no path loss on death.
>>573048683>But I really do need to figure out what my mages should do besides throw 10000 skeletons at the enemyShadow blast and life drain are pretty good.Lammashtas are also GOAT in the clutch.
>>573048824Foul vapors is pretty shite in dom6 for ea ctis. Unless you're playing sloop in which case it is pretty good. But in vanilla ea ctis lost its access to dank vape.
>>573048824That was my first thought too, but that's Nature 4/Water 1, and none of the mages I have get close to that.>>573048962I should probably try more evocations and battle summons, considering how many ethereal and spiritform things are running around.
>>573049219You can do it with a water random sauromancer holding a thistle mace + a moonvine bracelet + and extra nature gem to boost once more to cast.Or you empower a lizard shaman in water and boost him with a communion
>>573050045I've been ignoring items since the arena's been extremely volatile and Ubar has stolen a bunch of my mages before and probably will do it again if I ever manage to hold the arena for a turn, or the mage holding them dies in one of the four battles that happens there.Empowering a shaman would work better in this case I think, but that's 50 water gems that I don't have and I'm never going to have enough provinces for good gem income.
>>573039450>>573039507>>573039690>>573039749>>573039961>>573040042>>573040508So we can freeze the earth over and raise millions from their grave but extra sized bare chested beef is off the menu? That's just sad and sounds moddable.
Ok, I was doing tests, since game about to start and knowing how the nations work is important to decide if anyone will have an unfun experience.Turns out Khora is not so overpowered as the Overview tells you. 1. You start with a Citadel of Power and your Song of the Sphere Creation ritual makes more “mini capitals”2. One Of The Nine is actually a way of summoning one of your 9 national Heroes, not a way of getting a unit with 19 Magic Points and Holy Level 9. So they aren’t actually automatically The Threat in a Confluence game. They are still a very powerful faction, so watch out
>>573051963It's probably because it would be too abuseable with the 30% hp increase it brings.
>>573054387Wow +5 health to most units in the game, so overpowered
>>573055501Yet it would give +40hp to a phlegran tyrant with just 2 size increases
>>573051963>>573054387>>573055501>>573055720Waifu of love and war would one tap a bronze colossus if they also didnt take enlarge20 + 3 + 3 + 4 (strength of giants) = 32 * 1.25 = 40 + 20 = 60 * 2 = 120 damage
>>573061530yeah but bronze colossus has blunt resist and almost 40 prot
>>573062282Ah my bad, still hits pretty hard post protection + resistances
The arena is getting funny
THE GREAT SCOUT MURDER OF TURN 32SPECTATORS IN SHAMBLES
>>573064237If he took out a dozen shaytan while he was at it, I endorse it
>>573064560He didn't get a dozen.2 of them tried to corrupt his pretender though, with expected results.Some shaytan successfully carried out their work though
>>573064237A worthwhile sacrifice to take out three Shaytans in the first round.
>>573065609Hold up i dont remember killing sneaked units
>>573065609Jokes on you! My scout was scripted to retreat and escaped Agarthas wrath!
Trinities should let you pick three prophets.
>>573051963You can take ‘Larger’ as a bless, and enlarge as a spell, and thats only 1 size point each. often times its just btfo by other blesses and redundant, sorry kiddo, gonna have to live out your giantess role playing to the giant factions
Enlarged Inanna being raped by giant wolves. . .
>>573068351Any unit that can be raped by a wolf is a bad unit
>>573048683>>573048962Honestly there's nothing you could have done when he broke the seal you should have held your army. Those are like turn 60 tier units, similar to ether warriors but like half as effective. You had no chance to beat that shit
>>573065609is this the part we go ai since we cant see the battles
>>573076873Just use a scry spell. Surely you have access to at least one of them
>>573077168Dont think so
>>573077302Water, astral, glamor and air all have scry spells.Nature does too but only for forests
>>573077736What level of glamour and air I have 2g and 2a
>>573078238Actually i misremembered the air one, its a defensive patrol thing rather than a scry.Tapestry of dreams is glamor 2 though
>You have to raise Thaum above 0 it gives you map visionNo, I don't think I will
>>573079438Aww come on thaumaturgy is alright.You like soul slay right? Teleport? Group Luck?Err you like giving animals 2+ morale right?
you guys are getting map vision? i just send things raw
>>573076738I had to try, even if it was just praying that I end up in the later half of the arena battles and someone else has done damage or taken them out first.I'm figuring some way to deal with them. Maybe. My future plans may go horribly wrong, but I do need to just try things and see how they work. How else will I learn?>>573080680I've been gambling and sending my armies without looking since I don't want to use gems on Black Servant and don't have any scouts.
>>573080680If you want to see the battles just man up and battle yourself.I know some of you could tear these umbrals open with magic weapons
>>573080497prison of fire is genuinely a top tier spell
>>573081584Thaum is full of spells I like in concept, but are always really difficult to script to hit anything meaningful. Also a bunch of niche counter shit that almost never comes up (anti animal spells)
>>573081804>people complain about andramania>disregard anti animal spells>low iq gamers detected
3 Modded games start. 2 on the same Map. With the same start locations. I do not believe I will win any of them, but maybe the silly rabbits can score a victory with their Glamour Death spam.
>>573082383Playing late age + fighting andramania is a pretty uncommon occurance for most people.My last LA game I bitch slapped an Andramania into the dirt with Pythium anyway. I did it with fatigue plays rather than thaum animal counters.
>>573082973Lucky I usually get raped by senatorial guard
>>573086032They are a hard nation to beat in a first war to be fair. I fought against andra in a mid to late game situationYou need research or a hellbless or a big titan/monster to get an advantage early game
>TURN 31 OF THE ARENANothing happened.Point for Agartha!Also, I'm out on a work trip so I won't be updating the counter in the link for a couple days
>>573086356Many scouts were murdered.
Ah, the classic double +35 unrest events on turn 3.
>>573086835>dump luck scales for more paths>get bad events
>>573088807In retrospect I didn't see that random events frequency was switched to common. I'm not sure if my asshole is ready, senpai.
>>573090914That's just classic setting for mp games.
>>573090914It'll be fine
>>573091539>be in 7 games>5 are being held by one guyDOYOURFUCKINGTURNS
>>573091169thats the thing i dislike most about lucksince it's capped at (turn*5)% regardless of the extra events from scales and your number of provinces, a full on luck3 build doesn't even do anything until around turn 15.
>>573031967just take neutral temp scales and embrace the duality...
I forgot to rename my prophet.
At the rate this is going there wont be a free slot for me to cast a global enchant on the arena
>>573101628Hi give me pearls and I will dispelYou can trust me, I'm a wizard
>>573076738Penumbrals?Just D2D them. Its literally THAT easy.
>>573102669not everyone has a bunch of holy niggas lyin around
Okay maybe i will have enough gems by turn 40 ish. . .
>>573103632D2D is death; you're thinking of banishment.And if there's one thing that C'tis isn't sore for..
>>573104689Shhh, you're spoiling my future plans. I actually didn't have it in my first encounter with the Umbrals since I didn't research Thaumaturgy.
>>573105282As long as he doesn't have BV :)
>>573105346You stop that. I'm already having enough trouble as-is. One of my biggest worries already is that I won't be able to take them out fast enough, considering how many there are. Don't add more to that.
Building a massive load for turn 50, bring protection
>>573102534Nu uh
>>573101628That's actually better for you cause you just overcast and bump someone off
I refuse to believe pretender titles are coincidence.
>>573110635Oh, even better
Someone sent a bunch of dark interns with bvcs to the arena already
I am confident i will lose fast, so its not going to be an issue
>>573119327is Marginalized recruiting from here? I don't see anything in this thread or the last
>>573120404Oh, i am not just supposed to join whatever? is it bad manners or something?
>>573120835I mean youre probably gonna get kicked if they dont want you in there. I was in a discord for this place a while back and we kicked people we didnt know. Randoms just leave/stale a lot
>>573121512I see, then i will remove my entry before it causes any issues
>>573119327I believe in you anon
>>573111663I spawned one a one province no-connections capring and had to wish for land to be able to leave at turn 50 after casting every popkill global in the game and had "The Unreachable".Pure kino.
this is the most connections i've ever seen in a province. now if only i didn't have to war pan for all of them....
>>573132349What the green goblin map is that
>>573119327>>573120404>>573121512You and your big mouth, Anon. Thats my game! Of course Im recruiting here! I am recruiting from anywhere! https://hinaserver.net/game/70https://hinaserver.net/game/69Are open to anyone. Once the three older games I am in end, 2 more Modded games will open. If it is modded, it is usually mine
>>573133217a shitty default map gen 2 seas map. i'm sandwiched between therodos and ea r'lyeh on a little land bridge so i'm gonna have to play referee the entire game keeping them both in their pond but atleast i got this cool throne province
>>572924047These, alongside BigBoys (Nationgen) and frOmAGE (Disciples One Age) are mine. I am always open for more players
>>573133462Lame
>>573031967go cold ragha, its the trve airyan pathyou still get good cavalry and elephants, and if you cast pillar of fire you can get the meme sacred anyway
>>572758782need to sniff her chudpanties
>>573133432Why don’t you do your fucking turns, so that those older games you’re in could have a chance to end before we’re dead of old age?
whos doing that warhammer2026? can I join? Anyone did some testing or has experience with nyggarond's only fan sacreds? If Ive 6 points left, do I better +3 dmg, so the pussies can actually infect someone with aids, or is 1 dmg and swiftness better, to get pussy as fast as possible?
>>573134712I'll see if I can
Is that a purely visual mod that gives a death "animation"? By animation I mean a simple flash fill white followed by either a 1s fade away or shrink down like they're melting, again just a scale by y until 0.I know this is autistic but I am bothered by how the units just disapear.
>>573143570just pretend the horrors suck them off to their dimension immediately upon death
Oh...... opposition of water........................... thanks..............
>>573145549That’s nothing. Wait till the shitmin hits you with another week-long extension, that’ll show you!

>>572758782WHERE IS THE BUSH
>>573149985Here, complete in her full kit.
Ok, the Rabbits aren’t winning. I have a Lvl3 Throne threat in my cap circle, only it isn’t one! An Annunaki of Love and War and one of the Sky are present in there alongside 90 other nature summons! Additionally, my other cap province, has 90+ Barbarians, though I don’t feel quite as hopeless there, since Rabbits negate the first hit against them
>>573154652Attack! Attack, you fool! Fight! Annunaki aren’t dangerous!
YES GO MURDER THEM MY GOOD BOIS
>>573160312FACK
>>573160542Bro, your province defense?

>>572921589merrow pouring tea?merrow studying reading with a kernou druid (she isn't that clever)merrow looking lonely and sad in a swampy settingoverconfident merrow with an oversized sword that is clearly out of her depthmerrow looking with fear at tentacles rising from the water merrow warming herself by a hearth inside a simple thatch hut I think about merrow every day
>>572921589in my exuberance I forgot crucial merrow details may not be immediately apparent to all of /domg/the sovl of the merrow is that she is in-universe consistently depicted as friendly, loyally subservient, and incompetentIn the middle age this depicts itself in contented servitude to the morgen princess, and she is a bit more genteel due to being elevated by being in the presence of the morgen in the castle of bronze and crystalIn the late age the merrow are left without morgen, and revert from the high medieval celtic wonders of the previous age to a more iron age celtic aesthetic that owes a lot to marverni/kernou and is pretty out of date for LA (but is also the most advanced merrow have ever been on their own at any point beforehand). The merrow of LA is a more heroic or tragic figure, since similar to piconye and the lost prester king she aspires to the ideal of the morgen while being unequal to the role she wants to fill, and the tide of the times is completely against the noblebright sentiment anyway because LA is mostly awful and her quest is self-evidently doomed(I love merrow, I can't wait until illfriends release the new merrow nation)
>>573166740Cute fish frog
Merrows are subhumanKullulu are the real wet master race
>>573168337You wouldnt fuck a fish
so i assume a splinter nation from ma ctis in LA will consist of lizards and sobeks since they were driven out
>>573169471Sobek nation is never coming. Neither is La Ys
>>572924831Regret.
>>573170090*SNIFF*
>>573170090excellent bodies. you are strong pervert, milady.

>>573170457Even eternal shitter nations like Eriu and Ma Xib got some attention.Mictlan forever rots away
>>573170371something as mundane as balancing a weak nation is nothing compared to breathing life into the setting by setting another nation upon the pantokrator's realm
are the greeks in this the good guys
that sprite mod really takes away all the sauce from the atlantians
>>573172994Relatively speakingArco line kinda, Phlegra line no
>>573173120Basalt Queens look cool.
>>573173625not!!! in my opinion!!!

naps are for children btw

>>573173625This doesn't do it for me.Queens should have a dumpy

Been away for over a year, is Blitzserver kill? What's a Hinaserver?
>>573185228Blitzmin wanted to retire. Hinamin took over with his own version. Still a bit rough around the edges but the important stuff is there. Works exactly the same way.Also, we're running the first great arena.>everyone gets a few provinces>player's can't attack each other>fighting only in the great arena>whoever controls the arena each turn pets a point>50 turnsShit's starting to get intense

>>573185228>is Blitzserver kill?Yeah, our snekmin retired>What's a hinaserverOur volunteered replacement since late last year (ish). It's been far more stable and with few to no outages, generally a great improvement over blitzserver if you can handle the loss of sovlfvl scaly smut.

>>573190102Yes.
>>573185654>>573185950Got it, thanks.>great arenaSounds fucking great, too bad I missed it.
Oh shit i can fulfill my dragonfucker fantasies
>>573190347Storm Drakes with tight rein are probably actually pretty good, aren't they?
>>573192742what, are storm just better than any other type?
>>573190341Stick around, it's going great and a bunch of fags who didn't care to join have been smartassing about how they'd win, so I'll be hosting a MA arena once we're done with this one. Probably 3 weeks or so
>>573190347>>573192742All the Wizard Pretenders are plenty powerful, though some are really late game item/global dependent, like Freak Lord
>>573193690Shock resistance is far rarer and harder to apply than fire, poison or even cold resistance, so shock damage tends to be the most dangerous. Also, any strong source of it comes with area damage or stun, so double good.When in doubt, shock it out
>>573193690>>573194032It's less that the shock res is rarer per se and more that your shock res is all that blocks AN shock damage, unlike with fire and cold where (half of) your prot soaks up the chip damage even if you don't have enough res. Poison is technically AN too, but that's the one type whose aoe20 ward spell actually paints on 10 res instead of 5.
>>573194697>>573194032>>573193931Interesting info, thank you! checking all the super pretenders has been a delight for my timmy brain
Im so sick of Phaeacia’s stupid rich island gimmick. Is it meant to be a lottery thing? I make a map with a single province island, multiple of the thing and what does it do? Costal coastal coastal coastal! What is this priority code, Illwinter?!
>>573196797Would you even want to spawn surrounded by water on that nation? You have to pray to the RNG gods that your dominion spreads to a land province 2 tiles away by turn 2 or else you're just stuck there.
>>573198927You get big income with the island start. Your capital alone can nearly make 1000 gold a turn and on its own it can pump out like 5 Orichalcum guards, but coastal start near 3 forests is much better for resources.
Is it better to learn one faction of every age or several of one same age? i dont think i can memorize so many different gimmicks
I have made a massive tactical blunder, maybe putting big ass men as bodyguards wasnt a wise idea
>>573199569Pick an age and stick to it for a few games.Read the lore of the nations. There's a bit of a story to it. EA Ermor was not!Rome and they learnt necromancy from C'tis, the lizards of not! Egypt. So they decided to try reviving EVERYONE so they could have endless soldiers and workforce. Then they fucked it up, and now they're MA Ermor, a nation of ghosts and skeletons that quickly annihilates everyone.A bunch of other nations in MA are their EA counterparts after being conquered by EA Ermor but free again after Ermor nuked itself. Like Marignon. Then LA is mostly everyone just trying to deal with the fucking undead by getting into blood magic, so now it's all demons. And crossbows.EA is the most colorful age, full of giants, mighty mages, and a bunch of other weird stuff. MA is also very varied and fun but it starts being more homogeneous. The nations feel more like they fit in the same world with each other. LA is the most plain age, where mages have many crosspaths but few are truly strong and most fun stuff has faded away. Also blood, so much blood. And crossbows.Ultimately it doesn't matter. You'll eventually get familiar with all the nations. Many are rather underdeveloped or don't really even have a gimmick.
>killed the god vessel messing with my island>now it's even worse
lolimao
It is with great sorrow that I must report that the crowdfunding campaign for Dispel was a complete failure, I'm afraid that not a single person decided to contribute to it.
What's going on over here
Btw, if you are just looking for something basic but powerful, there’s Pretenders that make certain types of units or mages sacred. The Idol of Water (kneeling statue) makes water mages Priests and coastal tempels produce water gems and let you recruit a W2 Gift of Waterbreathing mageThe Idol of Harvest (Golden Cow) gives you a Construction Lvl 7 scythe, makes Nature mages Priests and gets extra Nature gems in harvest seasonThe Pillar of Fire (available for middle-eastern and Deep nations) makes Fire mages Priests and gives them a misc item that acts as a Fire Jar that boosts Fire Elemental summoning. Asura turns demon commanders Sacred.Returned King is a full on Immobile Mage, that anoints an undead commander in the capital into a Holy 2. I am not sure if there is a Pretender that anoints Earth and Air mages, but Agartha specifically is massively buffed by this mod: Council Leader, Earth Made Flesh and Ancient Olm all massively buff their troop lineup.
>>573201475What in tartarus is THAT
>>573201475Oh dear
>TURN 34 OF THE ARENAC'tis attacked the arena and tried to pray the gray away, but failed to bring enough of a screen and was overwhelmed by the undead hordes of Agartha.Muspelheim sacrificed another horde of giants in an attempt to muscle through. The damage was significant, but the giants fell.To everyone's surprise, it was finally the monkeys of Kailasa who managed to finish off the horde! The beefy oiled up sacreds and liberal deployment of cleansing water did the trick.Then Ubar did the Ubar thing, with limited results.Point for Kailasa!>>573201475>>573201593Fun times

>>573202407Some of them were using Horde of Skeletons to make an extra screen, some were using Control of the Dead to try and steal, and then there were some using Dust to Dust to try and kill.
>>573199569You can just play whatever interests you in singleplayer and skim through the units for the factions in your game as you encounter them with F4. You don't have to play every nation to know how to play against them. It helps, but a lot of people develop preferences and just stick to nations that accommodate them. For example, I like nations that allow for strong economy and research, so you're never gonna catch me playing a popkill or hellbless nation.
>>573193820I am reading the current rules and I see a lot of potential for mischief.
>>573203461Umbrals have pretty high MR you need pen items to steal them probably reliably

>>573200198Funnily enough i find EA the most boring looking, meanwhile i love LA like Lemuria or the Nature Ulm guys
>>573200198well they're both ma ermor and sceleria they split I thought then they split again into lemuria cause they didnt learn their fucking lesson somehow
cute anime girl sprite replacement mod when?
>>573210249Would worship
>Well of misery, conjuration 8>Utterdark, alteration 9I am guessing you will usually only have time to get one of these in a MP game?
>>573208964even though i drew that in 5 seconds i wouldnt be able to sleep if i didn't fix that bellybutton
>>573204745It was more of a throwaway "Let's see if this works," most of them weren't using it.
>>573211149you can get both if you are super ahead, you can be at 3k research a turn with enough mages
>>573211149get construction research first to start making research boosters to really increase your research efficiency. if you're at peace and have gem income leftover you really might as well be spending most of your gems on research boosters unless you specifically have a ritual or big item you want to save up for
>>573214031Its Lemuria, the guys who need death gems to "Buy" their normal units
>>573217295you can still (and should be) recruiting indie mages for researching and site searching. if you get a decent nature air or fire income you can convert all those into research boosters as well
>>573217414Fair enough, thank you
>>573217414>>573217295>>573218021Yes, boosting is even better on lemuria because they're immortal mages. Insane shit you can do with them, it's just too bad popkill is worse to play with than water nations in this game so I never get to be the cool ghosts
>>572922071>>572923327thats unjust, the first marverni art was made in its connection with merrow
Why do air units on hold and attack rear just like... decide they want to jump on the front line sometimes?
>>573221579Cute
>>573205768EA Abby and LA Man Knight spam?
>>573224805cause they will not always attack the rear most squad, if they only have 2 squads the chance is higher to just land on the front one
>>573225970Is this a bug or something? Or does rear mean front in Sweden?
>>573226680It's just an element of randomness I guess.
Man so many cool death factions and i am unsure who to pick
>>573224805It's either a morale test or random check to see if they actually ignore the frontline and move past into the rear.
>>573228071Nazca duh
>>573224805>>573228726it's completely random. that's why even 50 morale units just completely ignore the rear attack order at times, so if you really want to land on the rear split your block up into a bunch of smaller squads
>>573230169>EASauromatia (Or Fomoria? maybe Yomi to stay in theme with Asphodel and lemuria kill gimmick to transfer game skill?)Ctis as backup>MAAsphodel (playing Ermor is a cliche apparently)Ctis as backup pick, again>LALemuria (probably my favorite theme, drip robes)Ctis again motherfucker
>>573231487Consider the following: Sceleria.
>>573232381That would be playing half lemuria and i dont want to repeat themes if possible
>>573231487Yomi's gimmick is very different from other freespawn nations, the freespawn Oni are more of a seasoning than the main dish. A useful one, but you don't really get enough to use them as your main army.The real gimmick is Dai Oni being one-man armies and the strongest recruitable commander in the game.
>>573233063shikome
>>573233063the freespawn onis main purpose is to hp route your dai oni when you forget to drop them off before expanding :)
>>573234819This too
any nation big on dragons?
>>573200832My astral income is ZEROIn fact I have almost no magic sites
>>573235208I bet we were all lied to about the magic site frequency. Or we all got fucked over and actually have plenty of sites, but they're all for paths we don't have access to.
>>573233063Laestrygonian Tyrants are stronger.
>>573235391I have searched every prov I have with every path except blood.5 magic sites total, none of them impressive.All my indie recruits suck ass too. Wish I got jade amazons like a certain somebody did
>>573235472yeah but you can recruit dai oni from the start of the game. also dai oni's main counters like massed air ele tramplespam and holy scourge got nerfed in 6
>>573235574Did you at least manage to get some more gems for whatever you're using the most of?All I got for funny indies is elephants, which I haven't used at all.
>>573236018Lmao no. Of my 2 primary paths I got +1 and +0 gems from the cap circle.The rest is all for minor paths
>>573133432You should host a pokemon mod game. That one's pretty fun.
>>573205768What do you mean? You don’t like the black knights with BLESS?!?
>>5732022083 dom
>>573232469Not reallyIt's more like a retarded ermor
>>573238572He’s playing hellscales so it’s intentional. That way, only his capital will suffer, instead of all of his provinces. With an awake expander, low dom is risky, but he could preach
*casts orgy*
What the sadistic wet hell is this map? I share my cap circle with TWO underwater nations.
I will be pushing fish back to water for the whole game.
>>573241252VANILLAD!
>>573206465LA is about crossbows AND casting body ethereal on halbs.
>>573240314
>>573242139Nah for me it's about enormous multi headed poison farting sacred sneks. And casting body ethereal on them
I Pelagia solemnly swear to never leave the ocean and you should fund me in the underwater bowl

If a mage dies and is revived by phoenix pyre in a battle, does he keep all the buffs he got from before his first death?
>>573246998Ye
>>573243395I want to become their husband
>>573238572What about it?
>LA Agartha are the best users of tartarian gateOH SHIT?
>>573258479Is sticher that good
>>573258479It's true. Everyone else would need to get lucky with indie necromancers or go up to const 9 for Igor Korhelm's Tome (too much opportunity cost), and the Mending Bones shroud tactic precludes thugging the tarts which is the whole point. LA Agartha just needs the paths for gate itself and to summon secondary Gift of Reason/Divine Name caster(s), and then a fort full of stitchers will cure the other problems away.
>>573259149It means they can un-feeblemind them, so yes.
>>573231487After a night of research i have trimmed it down to this for death nations, next thing is actually learning each faction.EA Helheim/CtisMA Asphodel/ErmorLA Lemuria/Agartha
>>573258479They arent that great at living long enough to do it though
Do you think Ensi make decent thugs?W1N1 lets them cast Mossbody. An E1 rand lets them Ironskin, S1 rand can Body Ethereal.Decent HP and Str for wielding a GSSJust sucks they cost 300g
>>573260684They are solid depending on your bless.Give em a gem to cast regen on themselves too
>>573259780W8 wut???!?? Undead brain surgery works???
>>573262826Mental afflictions are still afflictions. Part of the reason why healers are such a big deal for nations that can Mind Hunt, removes a lot of the risk.
whats with telkhines being seals?
>>573262826You can also take the undead healing bless and give the tart a shroud to unfuck themselves
Arena Muspelheim anon here, i shall make a coherent pretender design next time, promise.
>>573263403They ripped a massive fart so they got sealed underwater
>>573263567I'm proud you've done so well just throwing shit at the wall, newfriend
>>573264279I havent taken a single point after those first few turns, i am fumbling hardMy pretender cant even join for a glorious last fight
I DONT CARE WHAT GLOBAL YOU USE I AINT DISPELLING IT
>>573264431Just teleport that nigga in. Don't fight until the last turn, if you win the last turn you'll show all the veterans!
>>573270716I dont have astral 3 and its too late to empower
wtf i didn't realize just how nice it is for my neighbors that i have order 4shit is bleeding over into their provinces, but in their own dominion they gain the benefits of having that order.my neighbors are getting free order scales, they should give me 6% of their income.
Uh Sauromatia doesnt look "death" nation to me
>>573272647But they don’t get any befits, other than event chance reduction.
>>573272647The only positive benefits that transfer through dominion to an enemy province is growth and event chance.Theres a page somewhere on illwiki about it
>>573272297If you have 2S2E you can forge a booster. No need to worry about magic duelling, I'm sure they all die before getting to fight the Rock.
>>573274024>>573274360Even in their dominion?4+ scales spread to adjacent provinces regardless of dominion, so if it boosts their order, in their own dominion, they don't get the benefits of it? how would the game then know it's '''enemy''' order spread? would this simply nuke an enemys own order scales if a single o4 from your own scales spread to them?
>>573274540>4The illwiki page was written during dom 5 when order 4 didnt exist so I dont know for sure. Generally speaking though negative effects carry over.
>>573274540Nevermind, I'm an idiotthat's weird, how does it know whose dominion it is? I guess if the opponent has their own order it works but past what their order would be it doesn't contribute?
>>573276946I'd assume it's still just counts as a hostile source of dominion order even if the candles aren't there. Like how some sites can give +order locally, except those aren't tagged as hostile so you get the benefits.
What nation is best for impotent people?
>>573274360It does make enemy provinces eligible for events requiring the positive scales, but that's a pretty minor benefit.
>>573280417LA Pyrene
>>573262826Recuperation and Healers are valuable because they can treat anything besides Curses and Horror Marks. Missing Limbs, Blindness, Brain damage, torn vocal cords, Missing Organs, none are beyond the power of Herbal remedies, Jesus and Mother Nature

>>573286648Motherfucker put a god damn fountain in the arena
>>573286991Honestly I'm surprised it took that long. I expected someone to rush teleport just to airdrop a big boulder on the arena by turn 15T-0
>>573287339I can't believe nobody took a Bronze Colossus.
Warhammer2026 now has 7 players, is that enough to give it a start or should I wait for a few more? As is I will wait until friday to launch it.
>>573290271*8 players now
Wild hunt in the arena? Just fuck over me? I will go ai
>>573290271Please make a good map redux sucks so hard and tridux is just stale now too
>>573274023what does it look like to you babe
>>573291294I think tridux mapmaker did a fine job.
>>573293453Holy shit are those some plains and mountains next to the plains and mountains, over there behind the plains and mountains?
I think i will stick with Lemuria
>>573294675i like the ghosts too. therodos has them but their banner and nation doesnt feel very necromantic.
ANYWAYS, LETS SEE WHAT HAPPENS!
>>573295050Ah, a good old tartarian factory. Haven't really seen one since the times of Dom 5. Have they fallen out of fashion?
>>573296034Making true super combatants is very dificult in Dominions 6 as compared to Dominions 5. Particularly because mossbody was nerfed to have a percent chance to break upon taking damage based on the damage it blocks/15.
>>573296034Undead feel very weak in dom6. Lots of spells to just murder them easily, the nature one especially
>>573296034Level 9 researches in general are a bit rarer since you do them one at a time, and I believe Gift of Health no longer fixes undead so it's a lot harder to set up a super efficient tart factory if you aren't LA Agartha.

[X] EXTREME CONCERN
The cancer globals are getting retarded. We should be able to kill mictlan and tir na nog for this.
Please donate to the crowdfunding campaign for Dispel casts.
>>573311473I have literally no astral.
>>573311537I'm ready to convert other gems to do it if I have to, even if I really, really don't want to.
>>573311473I have 40 astral and 15 astral income, I think we need to match 166 and he's 100% overcasted it beyond 200.We're fucked.
>>573311651Well blood slaves are worth half an astral gem so it's possible. And he only has a few provinces to blood hunt on so it's really not too hard to stop, but it does require co-operation
>>573311048I aint reading all that
>>573311643I converted my useless water gems for you. Try disenchantment first. Eater of gods ate my 3a raksharsha which blows cock
>>573311473I'll send you 10, but I have 1 (one) pearl income so you'll have to count on everybody pitching in.
Welp, getting 5 gems per turn isnt going to let me cast my global on turn 50, might as well use it in something else
>>573312265I would hold your gems cause it will get them killed if you cast it right now
>>573312536OH SHIT, thats what that does?
>>573311954I'm changing my research right now to get Disenchantment, though it's just barely out of reach next turn. I need 530rp to get it and I'm getting 498 right now.
>>573312854Yes. It will horror mark your person, and horror marks are stronger with a higher chance of a horror attacking them during astral corruption. And there's also a chance (depending on gems used I think) to just be directly attacked immediately upon casting a spell, regardless of horror marks. It's basically just a huge fuck you to every nation that isnt blood.
>>573313101Well post how many gems you get next turn and I'll see if we need to convert more gems. I can convert some glamour if needed but it will be only 20 more astral. I dont feel like throwing away my other gems, other people need to chip in.
>>573313318I'm getting 3 a month, and right now I have 32, enough for a Dispel, but I probably should try Disenchant first.
>>573313407Change of plan guys, send the astrals to me. I have this already.
>>57331340732 will guaranteed not work. If you cost that it's just a 2 + 1d20 dispel number value. He probably used 300 blood slaves minimum so you would need to cast dispel with 150 overcast to match that (and if he rolls a higher 1d20 than you it still wouldnt work).So yeah, dont bother if you dont get more than 100 gems next turn.
>>573313574Oh yeah, you had Stellar Focus. Which is why I didn't send you a crowdfunding message before. Desperate times call for desperate measures though.
>>573313574K I alchemized some glamour anyway.Do you have disenchant? Dont throw away all the gems or we may be perma screwed
>>573313790Yessir. I need at a minimum around 55 Astrals to be sent to me next turn to get 150.>>573313764Wow dude. Wow. Well at least we'll all have no gems after this right?
>>573314205Listen, I didn't send anyone with a global a crowdfunding message. After all, why would someone with a global contribute to something that might get rid of it? I'm sure someone will hold back.
wait FUCKING ELVES 25 astral gems I'll never get back
>>573314385These messages are always funny as shit, go outside to get fresh air and some ungodly force personally wants you dead
Yaksha casted blade wind and fatigued himself out letting himself get punched to death by 5 ghouls, and poisoned himself with mossbody. Good job buddy.Uber raped a ton of my mages, and I think he stole one of my earth 4 Yakshas too, so that's big for him I imagine.At least my sacreds mostly retreated back to my cap from Lanka.And then TNN assassination on my cap RULE BREAK RULE BREAK!!! BANISH HIM!!!
>tfw so unloved nobody attempts to corrupt you
Make a new thread!!!!!!!
>>573314385Yeah it's really not cool. Maybe dispel that one first I wouldnt mind, at least astral doesnt rape you unless you cast stuff so we can be patient about it
>>573303973why are you quoting me
>>573311263Well blame Agartha for driving me to this that whoreson ruined my Island so I must unleash the wild hunt
