NEVER GIVE UP EditionDominions is a fantasy turn-based war game created by two dudes. One of them is a teacher.The game combines a simple presentation with an extremely wide array of strategic options, including over 3400 units, 1100 spells and 400 magic items. Turns are resolved simultaneously, with players planning battles rather than directly controlling them. It has simplistic graphics but is easily moddable and extremely deep.Basically, it's an autist's wet dream of a war game.>Our pastebinhttps://rentry.co/vg-domg>Steamgrouphttps://steamcommunity.com/groups/vanheimageofvidya>Multiplayer/game hosting>Hinaserverhttps://hinaserver.nethttps://arch.b4k.dev/vg/thread/548312356/#548526452>Blitzserverhttps://beta.blitzserver.net/games>Illwinter's official serverIn game: Network > Enter Game Lobby>Documentationhttps://illwinter.com/dom6/docs.html>Tools>Mod inspectorhttps://larzm42.github.io/dom6inspector/>Wikihttps://illwiki.com/>Pretender calculatorhttps://zollqir.github.io/pretenders-dom6/>Debug modhttps://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3083231618>Communion fatigue calculator (still dom5)https://instacalc.com/53495>How do I change the fonts?Replace guifont.ttf, guifont_fancy.ttf and guifont_texty.ttf in the game's data folder (...\steamapps\common\Dominions6\data)>Sloop's Comfy Balance Mod (SCBM v1.13)https://docs.google.com/document/d/1zeDyK8Zb_p4lIJ0yp3a3ikMprRkmBCWvy31_4jBen3Q/edit?usp=sharing>Fan arthttps://thronebooru.booru.org>Other asynchronous strategy gamesSolium InfernumPrevious Pantokrator: >>586359543
Does anyone care for another solium infernum game??
Dust to dust
>>586910551yes i'll play! I had a lot of fun. so that's 2 people. Anyone else?
>>586910551I'd be up for another, but I've won close to half the games hosted here and so want to wait for anyone else interested to get lobby spots before me
Gnight domg
>>586919540Burger King?
So ends domgDom killed twice in a row
I know domg has a history on vg and anons are loathe to admit defeat to the SEAbeasts and troons of the gacha threads, but people actually look at /vst/'s catalog to read about strategy games. It's a slow enough board that we'd always be on the front page and top of the catalog. We'd probably get a couple more regular players from the exposure.
>>586910363Blessed edition.>>586923115I was sleeping. But anyway, only thing really keeping me here is our VGL team, would be nice to hold on for this cup at least, because after that we would be at best only play at invitationals if we move away from /vg/. Otherwhise yes, /vst/ is better. Eventually we might as well move there. /v/alkan boards allow generals too, these days.
>>586910551>>586919540How is that game anyway?
>>586928345it's fun, mostly diplo and scheming unlike dominions which is about building up your stacks. also unlike dominions it's really hard to flat out lose, you are expected to lose challenges, duels, wars, give payment to others ect all while still being competitive. losing a war doesn't mean you're a runt and in a losing position. there are even relics you can take that make you want to kingmake a specific player, because if they end up winning you steal the throne from them at the end.
>>586928948Thanks, I'll look into it. Are we talking original or the remake? The original was really janky (though to be fair most of them are compared to Dominions, which is actually very polished for a grognard game) but the remake's artstyle is a massive downgrade.
>>586929137we've only played the remake here. the thread on vst has people playing the original if you are interested in that
>>586923115Honestly, I'm surprised we're still holding on with how small and unknown Dominions is
Darkbolt
>>586931580things will pick up once the most anticipated nation arrives
We are in a lull but such is thr way of things
>>586942872Illwinter must release Trade&Taint or /domg/ will not survive
I will be slow in my turns for a bit for these 3 days. From day till night I will man a magazine stand for our halloween festival
Ganbare domg you will live
Anyone working on anything?
>>586921925Yeah.>>586928345I like it. It tends to be much more tight and intense in the lategame than Dom due to how quickly you can lunge ahead of the pack in prestige or taking Pandaemonium. Adding on to what the other anon said, it's hard to be knocked out into irrelevancy as it's unreliable/impossible to lose your powers and rank to other players which is where most of your potential to stay in the game lies compared to material resources.
Alivesisters...The only retreat province was cut off the same turn, so everyone's dead.
>>586960961>unreliable/impossible to lose your powers and rank to other playersbelphegor CHAD hoarding machine manuscripts feels so good
>>586923115Why does it matter that the thread dies sometimes anyway?Just make another 1. I do
>>586967458needing to bump is just annoying. also like another anon said, we'd probably be the most active thread on vst and could help draw in new players that way.
>>586971190Nobody is forcing you to bumpAlso, Call the worm that walks
>>58696616350 sacreds isn't great but it's not too ba->spoileroh
>>586967458>>586971370I don't really care about the bumping and premature archiving, but recruiting new anons would be good for the health of the thread. I've lost my nostalgia for staying on /vg/. It's as raped a corpse as any board on this dead site.
Best nation to play if I'm an emotional retard that quits as soon as I'm betrayed?
How's the 2hu game going
>>586975319ys. you either lastpick them as the only water nation or swap off them when someone tries to join as another water nation. there is no way to lose if you play this way
>>586975319LA lemuria
>>586976886Mugenkan is nearly dead after being ravaged by Keiga, who also has two thrones right now.
>>586977467Good job animals!
>>586982289It's a very unfortunate situation for the flower fields, unfortunately. They came under attack by rabbits and wolves at the same time and just crumpled.
What happened to diplo in domg games? People used to diplo all day, now it's just a bunch of mutes attacking you without saying a word all game. >it's not optimized people just lie!That's kinda what I'm getting at, game communities that start chasing what's most optimized/competitive rather than fun are usually in the end stages of dying. Also these mutes seem to be pretty shit too, so it doesn't seem to help much.
>>586990054autistic people dont know how to have fun they just wanna win, very cringe friendless behavior
>>586990054All the diplo monsters got stabbed by meth heads.
>>586990054I never saw diplo in domg games but honestly it's mostly just too slow I thinkI've had my message ignored more often than not in-game and in thread the impersonation potential is wild
Legion on Wights
>>586990054>What happened to diplo in domg games?Literally every time I've attempted diplo the guy ignores me and wordlessly attacks.
>>587005281>>586999212This literally happened to me, I was even being nice cause we were testing out a new mod, he says nothing and then just attacks me like 5 turns later like an autist.
Scarlet, as a nation with expensive but vulnerable to fire troops why did you invade a nation with fire throwers/mages?
when I play in /domg/ I get fairly lively diplomacy from a wide range of people, from blustering threats, worthy allies, and occasionally even gold-tributing masochists
The age of malakal is over
>>587006912Maybe Scarlet wasn't thinking much about it.
Oman soon
>>587009952Fair enough I can relate.
>>587013934I actually haven't looked at what anyone around me actually does myself. I'm just going to coast on intuition and luck.
>>587006912The answer is most people in domg are literally retardedLike starting a war that ends in their swift death over a bumped expansion into a wastes is somehow a common occurrence
>>587018276It makes the pain of waiting for turns more bearable
>>587017558I don't even know what all my own stuff does. Just now realized my dominion popkills and some of my guys have chaos power after taking order.
>>587021350waiting is at the core of dominions
>>587023412/domg/'s finest.
remember when dom6 was going to have multiple planes?
>>587031474Seems a bit anachronistic to me, pal
>>587031474Sadly they are just layers
Darkness
I have passion enough for /domg/
>>586990054Name and shame them.
>>587055246Everyone I talk to normally sends me something back the next turn.
>>587058429Same.I wouldn't say there's a lot of actual diplo going on though. I do a bit of misdirection and stuff, but nobody really seems to noticeably trying to diplo me. At least recently
>>587050841Swanmay
>CoE update>it's nothing
>>587066374Johan just posted on the dom6 steam forums, we're all going to make it
although it doesnt seem like it, we are on the cusp of great times
>>587060393diplo is just pointless in domg cause there is no binding diplo in this game and the anonymous nature of domg means you have no reason to be a consistent character. i play domg specifically for the low/no diplo style of games, while i have my friendgroup i play with when i want more actual diplo and metagame going on
Alright I'll do another solium infernum game tomorrow If you're interested in a free copy, just ask me on discord (Amuys) since I have one
Nighty night.
Twilight of the gods
Me? I'm spending my death gems on Foul Air.Why?Because I can
>>587080884those who put foul air up and then randomly send out seeking arrows to disease their foes
Aren't Grand Communions the most bullshit thing in the game?"Boy howdy I'm so glad I just put up the global that will define my entire strategy going forward- aaand Pythium dispelled it at no cost. Cool"
>>587081739How do I use grand communions?
RIP LA game
>>587081843>Select caster with Grand Communicant tag to cast said global or dispel>In the same province, select all other mages with that same path that also have the Grand Communicant tag, tell them to Grand Communion>Congratulations, with even 25 S2 mages, your dispel attempt is now +50 at no extra gem cost. (also works for non-dispel globals)
>>587081739Oh so that's how piconye managed to get a big cast of stellar focus in the arena
>>586910363wait what happened that took away all the money
>>586990054you got attacked without anyone saying anything because they were all talking to each other without youif you want diplo you need to start by diploing yourself. She ain't gonna make the first move.
>>587086090Probably something like Utterdark that slashes all province income by 90% (though if that were the case Agartha and Xib shouldn't really be effected)
>>587084102Piconye doesn't have Grand Communions, it was just a tendie with fairly high astral.
>>587080739zzz of the gods
GG TheroWasn't able to achieve a quick victory against Rus and a protracted war guarantees your winMy attempts to form a coalition apparently fell on deaf ears because I got zero responses to any diplo attempts from anyone but Pangaea who's been AI for ages and Ur who insisted on fighting until they were annihilated
>>587095853We should play the gacha mod desu
Summon Supaya
So why have we not moved to /vst/ anyway? The retarded subhuman trannyjannies are never going to properly run the webshite and force gacha generals into /vmg/. We wouldn't have to do this shit>>587099063>>587080739>>587078738>>587043005>>587037247>>587037237and so many more I can't even quote them all without being spam blocked. It's a good third of the fucking thread.
>>587102404we're propped up by someone autistic enough to bump the thread. if they ever logged off or had to go to the hospital or something, the thread would 404 after like 5 posts consistently lol
>>587102404I mean, there's a dominions thread on /vst/, you can post there if you want
>>587104410>>587105193The problem is that the /vst/ thread's last post was like 4 days ago, and all the games are usually posted here. Unless there's an actual effort to move everyone to / vst/ (we'd be the most active thread and no longer have to live like this) it's not going to work.3 anons moving over to /vst/ leads to a still dead /vst/ thread and an even more dead /vg/ thread. Basically, we either all do it and start putting that info into the OP, or we're stuck here.
>>587105546It's me and one other guy that remake the general every time it dies, if I stop we'd probably die off for good. I hate the idea of losing to gacha but also I hate the vg football stuff so I guess I should stop.
>>587105697I've been posting in /domg/ (with some 1 year breaks) since before Dom4's releases, so I'm not exactly keen on moving to /vst/ either, but I don't think the thread is sustainable like this (I'm sure eventually janny will wake up from his BNWO gooning trance, notice the bumps, and have a meltdown over the "spam" too). If the thread just dies one day because the few remaking it give up, are sick, etc then everyone will scatter to the winds, end up on the Discord, and get groomed by Althaea. Some will find the /vst/ thread but they'll see the last post being from a week ago and keep searching. Even if we don't want to try to do a migration outright, a link to the /vst/ thread should at least be included in the OPs as a backup/potential migration target to create awareness.
>>587107043Alright alright
>>587107043>(I'm sure eventually janny will wake up from his BNWO gooning trance, notice the bumps, and have a meltdown over the "spam" too).I assure you, if the Etrian Odyssey general, which is currently on a thread nearly three weeks old with the an overwhelming amount of the posts being bumps, has escaped notice, /domg/, which actually has things happening, will be fine.
>>587111641To be fair, 70% of the traffic (based on 4 stats) is just xivg, bag, wowfg, and whatever moba/hoyo shit is popular at the moment/xivg/ is three times more fast than the entirety of /tg/ for example
>>587105697I'll remake it if other anons won't, /domg/ disappearing could in unforseen ways jeapordize the release of future nations
>>587104410It's not just one person bumping it's a team effort I used to do it, you guys are pretty unlikeable though so I agree we should let the thread die
/domg/ has many likeable characters and unique souls
>>587113913The absolute horror
>>587102404We moved to discord instead all the cool people are in the node
Pike and Fireball frens, how is it going?Who is winning? Who should I be scared of? Who's jerking off with giga research in a cuck corner?

Reminder wishing for a Dwarf of the Four Directions is worse than anything else you can do with it
>>587126575Why?
gg, well played ur. i was really stressing figuring out how i was going to deal with those fuckass anzu stacks, a shame i didn't get another turn to at least try one of my ideas!
Ur asked for someone else to post the graphs so here they are. Thanks for the game everyone.
>>587134130huh, im actually a bit surprised i came in second place. i had never played ermor before, never even tested expansion, just decided to pick a random nation this game. didn't really make use of my pretender much beyond some construction and site searching and late game summons i never had the chance to use.
the gallant miyamiya...
I have a feeling that someone's going to die soon in the 2hu game, in the next turn or two maybe.
I wish Shinuyama played more like CoE Sorcerer
>>587132673>>587134130gg
Whats the best global for causing worldwide suffering?Keeping in mind the path requirements and research level (opportunity cost) to unlock it.Sure astral corruption and Utterdark are great, but theres a good chance I'm dead before I get a chance to cast it.I want a more reliable source of worldwide hatred towards me.
>>587149972Gale Gate
>>587149972Ordeal by Fire and Theft of the Sun are a little more attainable at lv8. The Wrath of God is the best early one, followed by BoT, Foul Air and Gale Gate.
>>587149972Astral Corruption?
>>587149972Utterdark
>>587149972>>587151592>>587153950This reminds me, has anyone actually experienced Illwinter (the spell)
>>587157878It doesn't even have high path reqs.
>>587157878many times, ive cast it myself at least three times I can specifically remember
>>587157878it's very good and even better in 6 now that temp can go down to -5 and once it does you get crazy popkill everywhere. EA niefel can even forge boosters up to cast it without any help from their god, so they should be casting it every game
>>587159115Nice, maybe I'll actually commit to that as a play for them
>>587159842you need to be in a position to actually defend yourself when you cast it, though. prepare for every neighbor to turn on you because -5 temp is absolutely brutal and carries about the same pop loss per month as a nation with growth under burden of time. it's good for putting a timer on things however and your stuff has cold power and ice armor so you still love to cast it every chance you get
>>587151625>Ordeal by Firemore people need to be keyed in to ordeal by fire. it's basically astral corruption except it's absolutely risk free for abysia to use. even the nation that casts astral corruption has to be careful, but if abysia puts up ordeal by fire absolutely none of their mages give a shit
>>587160892But then you would have to play the trashfire that is Abysia.
>>587160892even better for Aby as they always end up drowning in F gems
>>587161780Abysia is under rated.
>>587160892>>587161780It's too bad there isn't really anything castable with (MA) Aby's Grand Communicant salamanders/dragons. I guess you could empower one to F4, then give it a Skull and Fire Helm for F6 then cast Eternal Pyre. Gonna need a massive commit to ever hit F8 for something like Second Sun.Unless of course you take the Warlock pretender chasis or something and spend a gorillion points on high F/S, but good luck surviving long enough.
>>587167691Eternal Pyre ez
>>587161780they're really not that bad. people just don't realize you need to transition away from just being a fire nation later in the game. they have lots of early game power with strong units and fire mages but need to transition into an astral/blood nation later.
Is das blitz for today
Any open Divinitus games?
>>587180919Soon
Does anyone actually like playing EA Caelum?
>>587188221eagle kings are really good and make the nation worth playing but their actual unit roster is so dogshit
>>587167691>>587170939Empowering into fire has a very high chance of giving you afflictions. I did this once for eternal pyre and he immediately became mute so I had to empower into blood and fix him with blood feast. Fire is so fucking shit it's unreal.
>>587188801>lower lifespan>empowering likely to mutilateFucking hell why is it so shit? Do any of the other paths have risks in empowerment?
>>587191027Empower is usually sub optimal in the first place so it's just ridiculous how bad it is for fire. Delayed my eternal pyre by like 6 turns which is 120 fire gems. Terrible.
>>587191027blood empowerment can cause horror marks. fire magic is pretty shit yeah but it does have some extremely effective spells like fireball and good crosspath evos like magma bolts and sulphur haze. later on pillar of fire is great too
>>587188221I think people like them in singleplayer where you don't get raped immediately
>>587194964Who the fuck plays Dominions in singleplayer
>>587195101Illwinter
>>587031474All the planes in coe5 is really cool to me, I liked falling off the edge of the world into the void, I liked searching for trapped Gods in the other planes, releasing the demons of the infernal plane upon the world, conquering the citadel in heaven. The biggest problem with them of course was that, in singleplayer at least, they're all completely empty of any other empires, it's all indies. I don't know how you could do them in domininions without them just becoming like what water tiles are for ocean nations or the underground is for underground nations but significantly worse. Putting thrones in them guarded by very strong indies could be cool though, as well as having multiple entrances, forcing people to conquer them to win.
>>587207073Congratulations on your future CBT session.

>>587102404Wyell, if it dies then I will for sure visit /domg/ on /vst/, like I do with /mbg/ already.But I won't make/force any decisions.
>>587308083>>587102404We should merge with 4xg
>>587309120Nein, our independence is non negotiable
>>587309120I wouldn't be against it. But as I said, I won't push for it.
>>587309120>mergeNo, there's a thread in /vst/ right now, we wouldn't we just migrate there? No need to merge anything, we'd be the most active thread on the board or close to it.
>>587309120We can demonstrably share the general with SI without too much trouble, but /4xg/ is a bridge too far They wouldn't know forester bob or malakal or crannog ys, and the dilution of board culture would be too great
>>587312192Well if we want to stay on this game we need have a better title than domg we need to expand to include games like SI, Emperor of the fading suns, Shadow war, all the weird autistic MP games with huge depth. Maybe even age of wonders
>>587312485If that's the case just migrate to /vm/.
>>587312192>>587312485Am I taking crazy pills here or what? We're as fast as the big PDX game generals if not faster sometimes and those are the biggest generals on /vst/. We don't have to merge into anyone, I wouldn't mind SI and CoE posters coming in, but we have no reason to change from being /domg/, just on another board.We can be /domg/ and friends, but we don't need an outright merger. We would only need it here on /vg/, but it still wouldn't help.

I've tried to join several games here and then they don't announce the start time, start it in the middle of the weekend, and then remove me for being ABSENT ON TURN 1 so I can't really give a fuck by default
How would an MA Marignon beat a Bronze Colossus?
>>587323523Turns are on 24h timers. In fact I think the first one is on 48h or even no timer by default.If you can't do a 30 second turn in 24h or even 48h then don't play it online and ruin it for others. I can't imagine the time you'd need at turn 20 or 50.
>>587323523>cant spend 30 seconds checking a game once every 24 hours>doesnt join discords to be saved with pings
>>586910363Are people gonna join mamMAries? Are the people in the lobby still waiting?
>>587323568The earliest you could make a dent in it is by having Grand Masters forge GSS/shock res rings to give to Paladins who you then enlarge with N indie mages and have them wade through a big infantry chaff blob. Results would be better if you have an E tendie to forge smashers instead. Later you can comm up E Grand Masters to spam Shatter along with the thug play.Success will depend on how many paths were tacked on to the colossus. A basic A/E colossus might just fold to half a dozen thugs, but one with D and G added is obnoxious bullshit as it can delete thugs with Hand of Death and have Mirror Image up to buy it many rounds of time to do so.

Yo pike and fireballmin can we get like an extra 8 hours per turn now I agree with the other guy the duration is a bit low
Dominions but a space game, think about it domg
>>587354151illfriends already thought about this before their best years were behind them but they discarded it in favor of endless idylls of trade and taint
>>587350320I didn't even think that was a /domg/ game until I opened that. I've not seen anyone shilling it here, unless you're the admin and this is your really roundabout way of going about
>>587350192Solium what?
>>587358954Nay I've just joined it as a random lol. However it's true, haven't seen anyone advertising it here.
>>587370017The hell game
>Someone picks MA Ermor>The lobby pisses and shits itself in panic>Someone picks MA Sceleria>Crickets despite being stronger than Ermor???
>>587374727One has popkill.
>>587375350Okay and?
>>587371958I have joined as well. The lobby has been open for a while, hopefully the admin is still checking it
>>587375350Even more reason to go kick Scelaria's ass before they become a problem, you actually get money from their land and Scelaria becomes a bigger problem than Ermor when left alone to scale.
>>587374727There's no reward for rushing down Ermor
>>587382717The only place I've seen people attack Ermor has been /domg/.
>>587382973I've won a domg game where I had to solo fight an Ermor in the midgame.People here complain about getting no rewards for killing them too much.That's really only a problem in sweaty discord games
>>587383901As long as everyone else is either incompetent, asleep, or just fucking around sure, but if not you're throwing the game. We used to have quite a few competent players back in the Dom4 days, but pretty much all of them have been scared off into Discord by AIers and stalers, what's the point of putting effort into a game if dickheads are going to stale and go AI anyway? Somehow they've also psyop'ed blitzmin/hinamin into not adding serverside ways to keep said stalers/AIers out.
But enough about Lemuria
Can I get an extension for ELAsyium please? Can probably squeeze in a turn just before the timer today but will not make it tomorrow.
>>587387487>Somehow they've also psyop'ed blitzmin/hinamin into not adding serverside ways to keep said stalers/AIers out.it's part of our culture to ruin games man just go to groomcord if you care so much
>>587392025Who said I don't already? Haven't played with /domg/ for like 2 years, I only post here. Metafaggots are bad but I prefer them to the alternative.
>>587374727I've never seen a Sceleria make it out of their first war alive
>>587393295Meta faggots arent the problem with discord.It's the needy try hards who publicly blow a gasket if you betray them, or it's the guy who thinks he is the diplomancer but is actually so autistic he can't even tell he is being an asshole to you or throwing the game. Both types will send you pages of messagesThe multi game collusion complaint some people here make about discord is overblown though. In the vast majority of cases youd know if the other players are friends before you even joined
>>587401012This has literally never happened to me, I had one salty guy but the salt was semi-justified. I invaded him and he tried to diplo with my eastern neighbor who was my friend. Obviously my friend didnt attack me, we didnt collude in advance but it's true we dont really attack each other either cause it ruins the game to 2v1 each other for no reason. He was pretty annoyed but that's it.I think I may self select to less tryhard lobbies though. Im not playing on reddit or lucid server that's for sureBetraying is cringe though it's not worth it, just a game you dont have to make it miserable to win
I used to have a Dominions meme folder, but lost it. Spare a homie some dom memes?
>>587405273Betraying isn't just NAP breaking, though that is legal on just about any discord game too.If your ally is the most powerful nation on the board you should betray him, or you are letting him win. Not saying you should be playing like a disney villain though, honesty with allies can get you big advantages, but betrayal is a tool you should use when the situation is rightAlso a nonspoken agreement with your friend not to fight each other is collusion you pussy. Thats worse than nap breaking, barely a step above trade scamming
>>587408015
>>587408280Didnt say we dont fight each other just that we dont pick each other for first wars especially not to 2v1. I've only won one real game and it was one where he wasnt even playing so it doesnt matter. We had fun for a lot of games in 2024 though
>>587408015We dead?

>>586910363>Yet another game I tried to join de-listedRough, I can setup a new MA sloops game if anyone is interested, though would probably need at least 7 players before starting.
>>587409840
What faction do i pick if i just wanna set shit on fire? LA Abysia? LA Muspel? another? Surely fire magic is good?
>>587401012>It's the needy try hards who publicly blow a gasket if you betray themThis is metafagging though, because they carry a grudge.>In the vast majority of cases youd know if the other players are friends before you even joinedThe problem is, you never know how they're behaving. Are they cooperating outright? Just favoring each-other? Actually playing properly?Either way like I said, better than the stalers and AIers, but if the server admin implemented a staler/AIer detection system then that'd be the best of both worlds.
>>587410512It's better than water magic, as long as you're on land.
>>587410512Abysia is always a favorite for me.
>>587410218I love LA Mari in everything but actual gameplay
The first casualty of the 2hu game has hit, Mugenkan is kill.
>>587410628Some metafaggots are actually adults who dont take getting beaten personally.
>>587410218Same. I'd guess most were hesitant to join the last domg MA game because he wanted to play a huge 12 player map. I'll join MA or LA

It's up
>>587425339His Patreon is public and has no tiers.
>>587428589It's not on Patreon yet
>>587425339Assuming its real, what does it mean for the thread?
>>587450684Nothing. They'd join discord or play single player not here
>>587425339If only
>>587425339there's a scene in charlie and the chocolate factory when charlie pretends in front of his family for a moment he found the golden ticket because the brief moment of delusion and imagined happiness is better than the bleak hopelessness of his poverty
>Realize the only reason i love playing MA Ulm its because is the only faction that goes "Religion? Gods? fuck that shit, we have STEEL" and spits in the face of physical divinityPic unrelated
>>587453052Nigga that's literally Mekone's shtick what are you talking about?The entire identity of EA Mekone is "Fuck dem gods, we wuz kangs"
>>587453052There's Therodos
>>587453052>>587454026This, Ulm still has gods they're just more traditional type like how Romans worshipped them. Mekone and Phlegra are what youre looking for (and they're based)
>>587425339>says he's been playing with a group of spergs for months to make a video about Dom5>six years later Dom6 is out and the video still isn'tWhat the fuck is this Jewish junkie's problem?
>>587463668He's British
>>587463668Is it actually a game he'd review though? It doesnt really have the level of freedom to fuck around that much it's more competitive than sandbox.
>>587409186kappas are constanzas, that is true and not even a meme>>587412693sexo>>587425339hey hey people
>>587408015:D
>>587408015I would post some more, but they are in external HDD at the moment...
>>587482818Are Pyth's assassins worth recruiting?
>>587463668>Jewish junkieIf only, his videos were much better before he quit the Ritalin
>>587487221They are solid. They can be scary early on with a vineman/skeleton amulet. Spirit sight bless is nice for them too because assassination battles often take place at night and its an always active bless so they dont need a shroud to get the effect. Their weapon does death poison too which most things cant survive 1 hit from.
>>587488241Tangential, MA Xib has sacred assassins as well, what would make them good?
>>587488116I tend to agree.
>>587489617Not being capital recruit only for starters
>>587489617Outside of a few during expansion to help deal with problem indies, you never wanna recruit those. They cost you a camazots to recruit and thats a terrible opportunity cost. Camazots are your most important mage by far.Later on in the game you can easily give blackhearts to your way or camazots so they can be an assassin and they are far better at it than the toads because they have magic paths and can fly.Making a toad assassin your prophet is pretty dope though for expansion. He can chunk indie commanders easily with a Smite

>>587454026>>587460485Mekone is an especially interesting case because it isn't just fantasy Sparta or fantasy Sparta but giants, it's Gigantes that declared war on the gods. As in The Giants. The beings birthed by Gaia, which alongside Typhon, tried to wipe Olympus off the map (and nearly pulled it off when they kidnapped Zeus and made him lame).Mekone doesn't have a national discount on the Great Mother, nor does it really mention the origin of their race, but Typhon does live on in spirit via Phlegra, where the Laestrygonians themselves are Typhon, but he also was a real father of monsters who sired the largest hydra in all of Pythium/Sauromatia.
>>587502094so Firemen, Greeks, Undead Romans, Byzantium, Albion, Conan, Catholic Spain, Zoroastrian Birdmen, Snegypt, Dionysian Greece, Post-Ragnarok Valhalla, Jotuns, HP Lovecraft's Dagon and CthulhuNo wonder it had 5 sequels and a spin off with 4 sequels
>>587522134Yet i never heard of the first five games, same with conquests of elysium
>>587522338i did, but only thanks to 1d4chan. It is a highly complex fantasy wargame autobattler. Autobattlers became popular very recently because they are easy to get into. Dominions is not easy to get into and 6 is the most noob friendly title yet
