Local man sees the results of his genious scripting Edition

Previous thread >>164458260

Dominions 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 2800 units, 800 spells and 300 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.

That's still pretty impressive, tbqh
>>
>>164733140
did they not mass priests and death mages or something?
>>
>>164735161
More just responding poorly to many attacks across a wide border. Deathballing and shedding provinces/getting hit by WoD or splitting up too small and losing guys to middling stacks of ghosts with mage/crossbow support. One of the players tried to avoid committing and just taking stuff that was easy in the hopes that other players would lose more. That sort of thing.

There were missing battle tactics too (fire elementals and antimagic are pretty good at making ghosts sad and only one player really used them) but it was mostly just strategic movement.
>>
>>164735161

Ghosts have pretty good MR at base, and good Astral access. Massed priests are a waste of money.

how do i play niffleheim mid and late era
>>
>>164737930

Modding.
>>
>>164737930
Jotunheim is MA Niefel equivalent
Utgard is LA Niefel equivalent

Jotunheim is probably the strongest of all three
>>
>>164740119
how so?
>>
>>164740149
Vaetti Hags can be recruited in forest provinces with only a lab; they're only 5 research but they're cheap enough that it doesnt matter; massing them for research makes Jotunheim fast to start up (though they dont ramp like the best; just a lot more oomph to their research early)

Hags also get SNDB?1 which makes them useable as battle support or communion/sabbath slaves
Besides that Jotun/Utgard get one more national sacred summon than Niefel: the Glosos.
It's mostly good because you summon 9 for 13 death gems and it has trample (albeit at size 3). It's not a centre point of your strats but it does add a good amount of variety

Downside is you dont get Niefel Giants but the Jotunheim mid and late game is much stronger than Niefel, just at the cost of a less landslidey early game

I'm not an amazing player though so I've probably missed some things or given mixed advice here
>>
>>164740665

You also still get Skratti, which are amazingly versatile.
>>
>>164742094
oh yeah I've been meaning to ask what is best gear for cheap thug on them and what is best for low tier SC?
>>
>>164742247

Frost Brand, Vine Shield, Shroud. If you don't have an Ex bless, maybe reinvig shoes/belt as well. Further Resists/antimagic If Necessary.

They're pretty much into the low-tier SC range at that. One of them won't reliably take a mage supported army, but I've taken out armies with two or three. Just remember and start them in werewolf mode or they'll drop their gear.
>>
>>164745128
Protection is too low for Shroud to be enough without E9; what else can I do to boost it just a little extra if I have a different bless?
>>
>>164745128
oh and considering how negligible 5 blood slaves are with how much blood hunting I can do is ring of the warrior worth it?
obviously it's not an amazing item but it's cheap as hell on any hunting eco I've ever run as Jotun.

Yours, please. There's someone starting up a Hams game on the steam forum, and they seem to be under the belief that Tomb Kings is a greater threat than Skaven.
>>
>>164765498
I think hes full of shit. Tomb Kings sacred freespawn snake knights are murder machines with a good bless but they dont have any support for ages. Tomb Kings have very strong mages that they can summon for relatively cheap (D5 S1 for 35 gems and so on) but they have to research to get them unlike ermor. The acolytes you start with are possibly worse at researching than khornes guys and because you have to research conj for more researchers your mages arent going to have any support spells for quite some time. I feel Tomb Kings could certainly be very dangerous as a late game power once research has been done and they can start cranking out sacred statues but even then you need to get to enchantment 5 to get something that is big enough to prevent a hell pit abomination from killing it instantly.

Rats meanwhile get tons of mages right off the bat plus hell pit abominations and regular giant rats which inexplicably provide 2 supplies per rat which effectively means you never have to worry about your guys starving.
>>
>>164766590
Also although their mages are strong they do tend to come with S1 which means they can get fucked by magic duels.

You picked the wrong nation to be aggressive early on as for this game desu.

At least 4/8 nations are cold scales and 3/8 are good at raiding which is painful for you to deal with as you have 1 tile movement
You also picked on the raider with the hardest to attack capitol in general; which is especially hard to attack for you specifically.

I mean it's a learning game so you'll find out you goofed and hopefully learn from it but just ahead of time you should know Abysia does not match up well against UW nations

>>
>>164781486
Pretty sure Caelum is one of the only nations that can afford to have a sub-optimal pretender. They don't need an expander, they don't have vital paths to break into that they don't get from their recruitables, they have solid mages and, troops and N9E6 helps Eagle Kings even if they aren't being thugged
>>
>>164781943
EA caelum needs their pretender able to summon daevas, that's it
>>
>>164781943
yeah but being able to win in spite of having a bad pretender doesn't make the pretender not bad.

Like, sure, EA Caelum doesn't need to have an awake expander, but they can get MASSIVE if they have one. EA Caelum doesn't need to be able to summon Daevas, but they get a fair bit more diversity if they do. &c This build is definitely plausible to win with, but it's not actually good and the strategy that it's built to support isn't good either.

Also sum1won, pretty sure there were some bugs with 0.74 . . . like you removing MA Xib's sacred (not relevant here though), and some undefined land shapes or something.

EA Atlantis is actually pretty strong. Kings are beastly. Never tried Pelagia so I dont know much about them.
>>
>>164783482
I'll take Pelagia then
>>
>>164783263
Pelagia is far more likely to survive as a decent sized nation (and indeed, has always done so) but has serious issues having any real chance winning unless they can maintain a Nexus engine.

Atlantis actually has one of the best positions on the map, primed to contest Spain, and clean up after Xib/Mict explode on each other. They have one of the best rec-anywhere blenders due to darkvision+elemental resist+magic weapon, only having Ulm tier MR as a weakness.
The only issue is R'lyeh. If Atlantis can weather the squids (which is really fucking rough) they have a good shot at winning.

>>164787363
Well, if you use the advanced search function on the mod inspector, searching the property patrolbonus gives 3 results. Ring of warning (Const 2, A1), Mercybrand (Mari only, const 2, F2), and Eye Pendant (Const 6, E3D3).

You're probably better off just spamming chaff and patrolling, or summoning watchers.
>>
>>164789983
What if I made a pretender named "Meme on Oceania and go AI" with E9N9 pillars and started a suicidal deathmarch to remove them?
>>
NINE
>>
>>164790094
Well, you have about 5 minutes or so to do that.

EIGHT
>>
>>164789556

I remember that player. Tended to try and bully new players. Backed off from deals(which on SA is more binding than here, since they could name and shame you in the thread). One of the reasons I stopped playing there, since IRC diplo was mandatory, but the community was vapid as shit.
>>
>>164790094
E9N9 pillars are pretty good, but you have to tank scales to afford them. They'll chew through a lot, and the bless is good for your thugs, but it hampers you in the long run.

>>164789983

Well then we restart and get another player. Some of us are patient to start a 30+ player game
>>
>>164789983
You realize that all this does is add an additional day or two delay before the game properly starts, right?

If you really want the game to start, just advertise the last slot to other communities.

>>164790204
That's the point. The idea would be to meme on Oceania then go AI before the trash scales make you lose.
>>
>>164790342
>If you really want the game to start, just advertise the last slot to other communities.
I'm not interested in finding some mad person for the very last game slot. 29 players is A LOT already. Everyone including Nick should shut down their perfectionism and just start.

Just ditch the bless and throw more deep ones than they can handle at them.

Deep Ones really do take buffs well (potentially better than any other recruitable in the game, at this point), but with no base armor they're not that amazing without supporting magic
>>
>>164793221
There's variants with shields, and you have recruitable E4s. You can play the long game better than them if you don't take the doublebless. Worst comes to worse, the 3 attack variants cost 1 resource, so you can just drown him in deep ones.

This Throne cap is a Marverni aggression which the Giant peoples cannot ignore.

I am a forgiving man; a man of many children, a harem of beautiful giant wives. We have strong Niefel values in my household and as in my household so too much I govern my nation. Mercy must be offered before bloodshed among men of duty.

I will allow Marverni to turn over the Throne and agree to not claim it myself to force my Dominion down his throat as he has here on my doorstep. But there can be no capitulation here; this is a crisis created by his hand; his aggression builds this tension between our peoples as he has built tension between the people of Oceania. Such a state of affairs is not one that can go on and it's not the mark of a good Statesmen.

I hope we can see a peaceful resolution to this; but I wont hold my breath.

>>164793923
We claimed a throne on the east of our holy river, far away from your lands. The fish people of Oceania have no quarrel against us and the conflict between us was a result of poor communication and intelligence. You have no claim to that throne or at least never expressed any desire for it. Our god is a intelligent creature, but it cannot read minds (yet).

We are always open for negotiation but ceding a throne will require a equal contribution from the people of the north. You have a mouth and hands giant, use them. I cannot guess what your simple mind wishes but I can assure you that you can know what mine and my god`s do, we want peace and stability for all empires in the region. We will always be open for negotiation, but we will not answer to threats or blackmailing. And iron will be met with iron.

Okay, neat. So an awake monolith Atlantis could teleport onto all kinds of peoples' capitals. I wonder how fast atlantis could research teleport by recruiting mages of the deep from their cap and running magic 3. The monolith would research too, of course, which would help.
>>
>>164796053
mmhmm, yes, it appears to be in range of just about all of the european capitals.
>>
>>164795040
The Throne is in a direct position for Dominion strikes on my empire; perhaps your scouting force is feeble and you did not realize this when you claimed it but nonetheless it cannot be allowed to stay as is.

I will not reveal the exact location of Niefelheim for all to know but the Throne is in the second ring from my capitol (versus the 4th ring from your own; my scouting force is not so feeble.)

Such a distance means the Dominion spread of the Throne can be borne by your own empire as it cannot be by my own; a great works of Faith would be needed to defend my native rightful lands against Marverni proselytizers that would cripple my otherwise verdant growth and public order into a tumultuous place of no gods and no masters.

If you stay on your current course there can only be war, God Wills it!

Still I am not a warlike man; as it was less than entirely clear before I state it plain: cede to me the land upon which The Throne of Stability resides and in the interests of peace I will hold the land in trust but not claim the Throne.

Any mages that pop out get dueled, his slave troops (probably) can't hurt the monolith, and his magical troops (probably) won't fire without magical leadership. You'll thus (probably) shut him down long enough to get troops up there.
>>
>>164796332
Our scouts are not feeble, we simply stick to our customs and traditions; we are real men, we do not need height to show our strength. A true warm-blooded Marvenii would never go so low as to be transformed into a sniveling, spying rat instead of a man.

We do not send proselytizers in our lands, why would we send into yours? The druids simply follow the way of the boar, they hardly care if anyone is there to hear and follow them to it. If your people rather hear our whispers in the woods than the booming voice of your giant god it's their problem, not ours. Maybe you should tone down your attitude and they'd flock towards you again. And maybe the way of the boar is better than the deep footprint of the giant, and if so you should accept our superior ways, you will not be mistreated. It seems, by your words, that your people already think so.

And if your keen and great scouts calibrate their eyeballs, they'd notice there are no thrones of ascension on our peaceful and calm river island, we are only left with the option of exploring and settling new lands to honor our Boar god. Before you raise your weapons against us remember that we are always open for negotiations and that the boar also has tusks.
>>
>>164797018
Who said anything about R'lyeh's capital? I can choose practically anyone I want. Want to choose a winner in Britan? I can do that. Want to invade the nordic triangle? I can do that too. Hell, I could even stick to my name and drop on Oceania. Good luck killing a monolith with your sleep clouds.
>>
>>164797018
Where would you get the pearls though?
>>
>>164797280
You need only 2 to teleport. I'm not about that magic duel life.
>>
>>164797386
You aint got no astral mages to site search though. I guess you could use alchemy. Always fotget thats a thing.
>>
>>164797085
The only possible room for negotiation in this manner is that I clear the Throne of your claim; then return the site to you.

This is an untenable position for my peoples as there is no guarantee it would not merely reveal a duplicitous nature in you to simply bide time and build defences to launch the same act of aggression again.

Still I am not an unmoveable rock; I understand the nature of diplomacy is compromise and I am willing to budge on this matter somewhat but there must be additional concessions for such a thing to work and I expect you to be the one to come to the table with an offer if you wish to retain the land you have taken.

What additional concessions would you offer for a more lenient deal where you retain the Land the Throne sits upon but not the claim on the Throne itself?

- Jarl Mike "Orb Lightning" Pence
>>
>>164797565
Yeah, you can alchemize for the teleport. Don't even need to site search. Shit, for the meme you wouldn't even need to expand that hard since the only money you're spending is on the mages.
>>
>>164797275
If you take R'lyeh then you've opened up the entire northern hemisphere. If you take Oceania then you get Greek Ghosts plus a new front with Pelagia. Of those choices, I know which one I'd pick.

>>164797565
>>164797280
Atlantis has excellent site searching thanks to their kings. One or two should be able to get you enough excess pearls to make the suicide attack worthwhile.
>>
>>164797706
Oh, you seem to be mistaking the monolith drop as an extension to an actual strategy. I understand your misapprehension now.
>>
>>164797275
>invade nordic triangle.

Pretty sure that only works if you drop it on Helheim. Vanhere or Niefel Giants will rip a monolith in enemy dom to shreds. Probably a few other nations it wouldn't be a good idea to drop it on either.
>>
>>164797595
You want to take a step from under the Great Boar's path to godhood, break it and still ask for concessions? That's impossible! Outrageous! You clearly have a different understanding of what negotiations mean. The international community will hear about you if you try attacking us, and you will be trampled under the mighty Boar's feet!
>>
>>164797769
This is a bit the issue, and what I'm worried about. If meme on Oceania was just an opener, w/e, probably most people have some ideas who they'll attack first by looking at the map.

It's the AI part that annoys me. If I wanted that I would have shilled to rekajor.
>>
>>164797815
Yeah, the monolith wouldn't have access to the buffs that make it generally immune to units yet if you wanted to rush thaum and drop it on someone in year 1. Without ethereal/temper/ironskin etc you can't survive against even a decent collection of hardhitting units

I legitimately cannot give more than the options I have offered.

If that Throne stays up I'm on a timer to build Temples to counteract his Dominion spread unless it's incredibly weak.

I am in no way at fault for offering the best options I can both for myself and his side (as he will lose a War, I know this) and can only at this point show to the interfaith community that this is not an act of Niffel aggression; it is the righteous defence of the Faith in a hard situation.

As an alternate to starting without Atlantis, why not make a few switches? Pelagia could be moved to the squid capital, R'lyeh could be moved to where Atlantis normally starts, and everyone suddenly has a lot more room to expand wherever. It might even be better for balance if the "weakest" sea nation has the most room to expand.

While it is true that the Marverni are the natural enemies of Rom- Ermor, it is also true that for a good politician it is too early to pick a side, so we, great nation that we are, are not going to do that.

An Ermorian position of neutrality is appreciated in these trying times.

I regret to inform you while I will still be leaving Rain Cavern open so as to not stifle your own growth I find myself in a political position regarding other entities where I must expand north along the nearby river; I dont expect this to push our borders to clash in any meaningful way as it is a tactical/logistics decision and those provinces will be defended loosely to maintain peaceful relations between our nations.

As before I must ask you to keep clear of the South as it remains land my peoples consider strategically important and must be kept free of foreign powers and dominions.

In the history of Dominions 4 has a foreign Throne in cap circle 2 ever not been valid grounds for war and/or a major point of contentions between nations?

I'm genuinely interested to know if when the game came out whether people gave this much of a fuck.

It's literally not any better than him taking an ordinary province there and building a temple. Do you know how salty you sound right now?

1. Roleplaying Diplo is a lot more fun than just "have artifact; pls buy" and "have 2 many gems; 1:1 trade"

2. Casus Belli has always been about retaining face in the international community and never about needing an actual reason to attack; of course I'm going to take all the rightful clay within my scopes but doing it without first at least putting in a token effort at diplo when there are still plenty of Indies available and I'm a strong expander is a good way to get Malakal'd.

3. I wholly expected Marverni to not come to the table; I wasnt happy with either of the deals I offered on my own side and was more than happy to jump into a fight but in the interests of not looking like a [[Giant]] threat to the entire world instead of it merely being within a reasonable scope of ambition I spent half an hour having F U N roleplaying diplo instead.

TNN is actually the Tuatha. The mythological order is that the Parthelonians invaded (and the Fomorians were there) then the Nemedians came, then the Fir Bolg, and then the Tuatha came and conquered the Fir Bolg. So they had to come from somewhere else to begin with.

It's a game with autistic levels of detail to every single unit on the battlefield, where a sole berserker can rally from his route and make the enemy army run away.

>>164819246
Yeah, and there's another army of like 30 juggs a couple provinces away

Admittedly, it would have gone a lot better for me if I didn't fuck my positioning up. His juggernauts outflanked me because I was focused on trying to delay them with multiple heavily fortified lines while the crossbows fucked them

And boy did the crossbows fuck them. Not quickly enough to stop them eating like half my commanders, but they fucked them pretty bad.
>>
>>164824221

Your meme strat was to mass produce anti-thug weapons though. That they don't counter juggs with 30 of them vs 6 juggs says enough on it's own.
>>
Anyone got any advice on how to make a pretender for the Tzeentch mod?
>>
>>164821848
They might be, but upon looking at juggernauts they'd need to be able to mass a super dumb number of them to come close to even with either MA or LA Underhome.

Both have murder dorfs who are even killier (6 atk per square magic armor piercing weapons, with berserk ofc, and 20+ prot) recruitable from capital. And they get dumber from there.

MA can summon those 6 atk/square murder dorfs for more than 1 per earth gem, have a construction bonus site in their capital, and foreign rec sacred heretic blood mages, which combined with their native fire/air pathing+construction site super charges their research to the point that it is doable to hit a 9 by early year 4 . . .

LA Underhome has bloodhunters who generate events that grant free blood slaves, a blood summon at blood research 1, which gives 1+ chaos power 2 sacred berserker who casually hits 23 def for 2 slaves (blood1 to summon, and iirc LA Underhome dom spreads turmoil - it is not hard to have hundred of these dudes by mid/late year 2). Their blows do 28 damage too before berserk and possible blood bless, so they can certainly hurt the juggernauts).
They also get a powered up blood version of enchanted forests, because of course they do.
>>
So, does the Atlantis who put in the pretender actually plan to play, or meme around for a turn or two then go AI.

Because if I wanted the latter I'd have advertised on 8-chan.

I told it to, llamaserver sees to be coughing up a furball at the sight of another 30 player game.

>>164825073
Senpai, this is literally the best option I have. You don't understand.

The crossbow memestart is actually a pretty good counter though. Those 30 runebearers only cost me 600 gold and 60 gems, which is comparatively cheap for the killing power that they deliver. They're not just anti-thug, they're anti-bigdude, which juggernauts definitely fall into, and juggernauts are basically thugs in and of themselves when you look at their HP, defense, protection, attacks, and the fact that they're sacred. Actually, that's wrong, they're more like light SCs. The fact that I killed 6 of them (and some Flesh Beasts, which are like Jugg-lites) is GOOD, and if you don't understand why then you haven't looked at them very hard.

Checking to see what sum1won did, I think he renamed .75 into .76 as of like 6 minutes ago . . .

Well, if I have to restart because of this will give chances to rename our apparently shit pretender names according to the expert opinion of some random anon asshat.

Somebody mistakenly uploaded 0.75 before it was released (and was still incomplete). New version is now ready, and has been named to 0.76 for convenience. I will now upload it to llamaserver to avoid confusion
>>
>>164829409
Somebody mistakenly uploaded 0.75 between commits (and prior to release). Any game started with it would have been buggy, because the downloadable version would have been different from the actual version. Accordingly, before releasing, I renamed the correct, final version of 0.75 to 0.76 to avoid any confusion resulting from a correct and incorrect 0.75 on llamaserver. I have done this once or twice in the past when somebody uploaded a version of the mod that was not yet ready for release.

It's definitely not possible to make it not hit anything in the square that it lands in the way a ranged weapon hits. I'm not 100% sure on if it's possible to make it not autohit entirely, but I know that even precision 100 effects can miss since I've seen a Magic Duel miss.

I just started a war with Ragha, who has eaten Gath (and is adamant that he's not the primary threat in the game)
C'tis is getting attacked by Marignon and Atlantis. Last I saw, he was effectively beating Mari back, but then Atlantis sort of steamrolled him and has now cut Mari off.
Jomon is AI and being eaten by its neighbours.
Sub Utgard is about to kill Abysia. Someone posted Utgard's bless, but I don't remember it.
Ulm is Ulming about, not really doing much, that I can see. Then again, my scouts keep getting eaten by wolves so yeah.
TC is bumming about not really doing much either. I think he ate a few of Jomon's provinces, but I'd have to go back through my files to check.

Hilariously, a good Marverni would utterly RAPE that strat through use of enslavement/soul slay comms.

And yes, N9E9 Giants are super easy to use, and require a modicum of intelligence and know-how to counter. Once countered though they're either worthless, or worse than worthless.
>>
>>164879716
Nope. Most commands like that don't toggle off. You have to recreate the entire unit without it. Which is a massive pain in the ass.
>>
>>164879791
so how do you counter them?

t. not Marverni

>>164879791

>>164879930
>>164879930
Use 40 or so of your hundreds of stargazers to cast Stellar Cascades, after having a druid cast Light of the North Star. The boars freespawned by your boars of the carnutes can hang out in front of your mages in order to protect them, if boars die in huge numbers it's fine.
>>
>>164880336
Soul slay is thaum 5 dude. It or thaum 1 evo 5 are early midgame rush goals for marv for exactly this sort of situation.

I mean, yes, he won't have it by turn 14, but it's not even a little bit 'lategame.'
>>
>>164880043
He should have at least level 3 in a school by now. If he's rushed Conj for boars he's sol, but if he took Alt or Ench he'd have buffs that would make his troops tickle the giants instead of simply getting nommed by them
>>
>>164880336
>research 5/6 in one school
>lategame

I've hit horde of skeletons turn 14 before, it really isn't hard. The only real counterargument is thaum isn't what marverni usually rushes, but hitting soul slay by early year 2 is feasible, and enslave mind mid year 2 is as well.
>>
>>164879825
Awesome.

Also, looking at the commands I think the answer is "no" but is it possible to have a unit that starts out cursed or horror marked?
>>
>>164880670
I'm not 100% sure on doing it on the unit directly, but if it's a unique like a hero you can easily put a no-message event that triggers the turn the hero appears to apply the effect you want.
>>
>>164880524
Soul Slay is also not going to dominate the battlefield, meaning you only want it after researching both Conjuration and Evocation to level 5, and probably Construction to at least level 4, and Thaum to 1. I wouldn't say it's lategame, but you won't have it online for your first war. Enslave is Thaum 6, and it has a better chance of controlling the battlefield, but it's also a lot less reliable compared to stellar cascade spam, and you need a minimum of 16 stargazers being nothing but communion batteries to make the other ones able to cast it. It's not terrible, but I definitely wouldn't advocate rushing research for it.
>>
>>164881124
I've rushed thaum 5 before for LA Ulm. It worked fine. I'm sure Marv could do it too.
>>
>>164881124
Soul slay dominates the battlefield when your opposition is mostly 7 Niefel Giants with a dual bless and only slightly above average MR.
>>
>>164881380
you misunderstood the message chain, Niefel didn't have N9E9, MARVERNI had N9E9
>>
>>164881380
By the time he reaches Soul Slay and has mages capable of spamming it without falling asleep, he'll be facing a lot more than 7 niefel giants
>>
>>164881380
>>164881482
they both have dual blesses. Marv has E9N9
Niefel has N9W9
>>
>>164880502
It's turn 14 he doesn't have any of thoser I think
>>
>>164881627
that just means he's gonna transition into spamming johutn wolves, that's why he's buying N off of me
>>
>>164881497
Luckily, Marv is good at spamming mages. Niefel giants cost almost 3x what a stargazer does, and even 1-1 the stargazers will obliterate them
>>
>>164881794
If Marv survives long enough to get more forts than just his cap. He also needs to stop wasting money on indies.

>ermor memeing beeline for BoT is normal gameplay
The usual strategy for marvenii is spam some naked guys to conquer indies while researching conj 5. as they are squeeshy humans, they don't really have a good early counter to giants that isn't magick. But usually marvenii should beeline for thau 1 and conj 5 which doesn't have those counters. The nief player is just a internet though guy bullying people.
>>
>>164884307
Niefel should first either go Conj 4 for mass wolves (don't forget to sitesearch for N gems with gygjas), or Alt 4 for niefel jarl buffs.

hey should I be N2D2 searching or N3D1 searching with my Gygjas?
>>
>>164884189

There are a few options.

Take whatever troops you have are best and use enlarge/earth might/body ethereal (just remember to cast enlarge last to get 3 units per square). Sure its aoe1 but if giants miss 3/4 of their attacks and cant one shot your guys its huge. Boar warriors with that should have 20 str and 7 dmg weapon, enough to really hurt the giants.

Swarm is another thing, spam enough bugs and the giants will get bogged down in them and they even may kill the commanders.

Sleep cloud against the mediocre giant mr means they will be knocked out. And its easy to target all of enemy giants since he doesnt have many.

You can magic duel his S gygjas, he wont have many mages higher than S1.

Thaum also has sleep. Range 30, gives 110 fat. Its like a bad soul slay but its very early on. Hit a few of those and giants melt to crits.

Preferably both because both D3 and N3 can reveal Wormwood Tower, which allows you to recruit Wormwood Witches that give you A/E access.

There's actually only one each rarity 0 Nature 3 and Death 2 sites and a similar number of rarity 1, so you'll average almost the same number of gems. I'd prefer Nature 3 for some of the special sites.

>>164885138

Blood nerfs is a touchy subject that will make the community even more polarized about your mod. I agree with nerfing leech/giving vampires popkil/increasing cost (or decreasing spawn numbers) of demon summoning a little bit though.

TNN definitely needs RoS back, so giving bean sidhe and Ri E1 would be a good start. Dunno what you meant about A2D1 assassins being crazy good, but as people pointed out, it's nothing compared to blood assassins. Also, I never recruited Ris in any of my games. They're just not worth it compared to sidhe lords. At least Vanheim gets guaranteed A3B2 or something, because TNN just gets a little more of the same paths for a double price and a loss of 2 capital turns.

Dunno about lizards because I didn't play them much.
>>
>>164888076
Almost forgot, giving Ris E1 would allow them to buff themselves with ironskin/temper flesh, which would increase their thug value. Still not that powerful for 2 capital turns and compared to other EA thugs options.

Popkill seems like a thematic change that provides some sort of downside to an immortal army.

I'd also be fine with modest nerfs to storm demons/demon knights because they're much more useful than the other demon summons. Bringing things more to par within blood. Reducing storm power by one and reducing the fear aura perhaps?

Leech change, I'm not a fan. I think blood has an identity as "do a bit of everything" kind of path and Leech is pretty much the only nuke they can deploy en masse. As combat magic against most troops it's not much different to stormstrike so it's not even that good given the limitation of having to use blood slaves. If you want to limit its use as an thug/SC hard counter, what about bumping it to research 7 where you have Life for a Life anyway? Or perhaps make it a high-precision spell but not a hundred precision one. But I don't like the change of making it less accessible in combat.

As for Astral Corruption, I think a further cost increase brings it far too out of line with the other global spells so it wouldn't feel consistent with the rest of the game and ultimately, you could bump the cost to 800 and you still wouldn't "fix" the slaves to gems disparity. The difficulty of casting it is deterrent enough.

Honestly, the single biggest nerf to Storm demons would be the creations of an army wide 20 prot spell that didn't give shock vulnerability. At 7+ for 50, and a weakness to flames from the sky, I've never noticed them as an issue.

Demon Knights should likely be decreased to 7+ for 50, with the base spell being 1 for 7 - not 1 for 5. Devils should be reverted to what they were, but the base to summon should be 1 for 5, with the mass being 10+ for 50. The buff only helped contract strats, which honestly needed no help, while not actually helping the devil summoning spells.

Nerfing vampires nerfs Sauro fiercely. Nerfing vampire lords nerfs Sauro, Hinnom (who needs the for pop-neutral blood hunting badly) and any nation trying to break into blood.

How about actually making other demons useful? People don't summon serpent fiends or spine fiends because they're straight up garbage compared to even spamming the equivalent number of blood slaves in imps.
Fiends of Darkness are alright since you can actually use them pretty well.

More modding questions: It seems that only the last instance of #startitem works meaning it appears I can only have a commander start with one magical item. My question is: why? I could just mod in the gear as nonmagical items (like Ethanim's fire brand) but this really seemed like an easy way to have some semi-geared units popping up.

That's exactly what it fucking means.

There are situational spells like bonds of fire, and they're fine (as long as they serve a function).

There are rarely used units like behemoths, and it's fine (as long as they serve a function).

But if there's a spell NEVER worth using (except when you play SP against easy AI), it's unbalanced. For 12 death gems you can get a bane lord that's never gonna give you up/let you down/run around and hurt you.

They're not commanders, they're summoned as units (despite the inspector saying they're a commander).

Not that they'd be useful as commanders either, but 5 gems each as units is just ridiculous.

Storm demons and demon knights SHOULD be stronger than frost and fire fiends because they don't have arch devil/ice devil equivalents. Though I wouldn't mind other types of demons seeing more light.
>>
>>164885517
What if Leech and Life for a Life were made MR-Hard resist? Unlikely to fail against regular troops but not just automatic death for high MR targets.

For Blood globals how about if they cost you slaves each turn? This can be done with event modding, and would mean blood nations had less of a giant bank of slaves to put Globals back up with immediately upon dispels.

I think that's a silly way to go about it, though. A person with fire/blood, air/blood, earth/blood, and water/blood should have reasons to want each of the devil types.

Those reasons might not be equal, but one type of summon shouldn't be better than another in every way. Devils and frost fiends should at least have situations where they're the best choice, even if those situations are relatively rare.

>Devils and frost fiends should at least have situations where they're the best choice, even if those situations are relatively rare.

They do. When the player desires demons with frost and respectively fire resistance. Or frost and fire damage.

Point is that having access to frost/fire fiends also means having access to their devils. While someone having access to storm demons only has that.

Situations like the one you outlined with access to "fire/blood, air/blood, earth/blood, and water/blood " are rarely found outside of specialized builds. (Or lucky finds). The baseline idea is that if someone wants to break into "blood" with a single element, he should have equal reasons to choose either Fire or Earth or Water or Air. Earth/Air give stronger generic summons, and Fire/Water give unique commanders in addition to those generic summons AND banishment spells to their respective hell.

These comparisons don't happen in a vacuum, rather than comparing Storm Demons with Frost Fiends directly, you need to compare Air + Blood and Water + Blood and see what advantages each brings to the table.

Besides frost and fire fiends are just fine. There's no reason generally for say Nifleheim to break into Blood/Air for storm demons when they have easy access to frost fiends, same with Abysia and fire ones. (They're on a lower tier too, so you get faster access to them.)
>>

>>
>>164946310

They get fire and water, so devils/frost fiends. They get air through snagging a unique conj 7 summon, and don't get earth at all.

It's reasonable to assert that this falls into the "rarely found outside of specialized builds. (Or lucky finds)" claim

>>
>>164968912
Rubbadub was also just six players, but everyone was much more invested in the game. I think Nazca staling out before expansion was even over and any conflict broke out is what killed the game before it could really take off.
Same shit happened in Mokou but there being twice as many players, it's still going great. I think newbie games probably need 10+ players or a smaller map to guarantee success because we're more likely to have fuckers like Nazca around.

Mostly I won because the only person I fought was Ermor. Abysia might not be top tier but they can tank skeletons all day and they get lots of strong priests.
>>
>>164971096
>priests
>not fire elementals
Priests aren't even a good answer to Ermor when you have fire magic past year 1

Hosting's pretty easy. You just need to respond to reasonably player requests for when people are absent and get volunteers to set stalers AI. The only part that can be tough is the game settings. You want to pick a reasonably balanced map for the number of players / nations involved, and you want the thrones to be high enough that one nation can't win in Year 2 just on account of having a lucky start near thrones, but also not so high that it's easier to literally conquer every province in the game than it is to claim all the thrones

>>164975278

For 10 player game, 9L1, 4L2, 1L3, 11 needed to win seems to be common

Man, for eighty gems I thought the Ark would be some face-melting awesomeness but it just blinds and diseases. And it's mr-, to boot.
>>
>>164975503
That's actually pretty bad. You only need 5 out of 14 (!) thrones to win the game.

"exponential"
I have slow early expansion balanced by a boom in the second year
If indie provinces are scarce I HAVE to eat someone year two or be dead in the water
Indie provinces aren't scarce right now but that throne really was problematic in placement so I went after him instead of moving north; I was willing to avoid butting heads if he dropped that one province. The issue was that in diplo I knew I was in a position of strength and he wasnt this early.
I'm 2nd in the ranks for provinces and will stop there (after taking Carnutes) unless someone else tries to jump me

I hope our newly shared borders doesnt represent a new front of war and we can open a line for terms/decisions regarding indie provinces to your north west

There are concerning reports of giants cleaning whole villages of their children and women. Our scouts followed their trails and discovered the giants eat them, skin them alive and deep fry their skins to use as snacks! The giants are barbaric treacherous creatures, make no deal with them for they will surely break it! The marvenii authority is engaged in fierce resistance in the home island. What was once a peaceful and calm island has turned into a gruesome field full of dead druids and young men. The giants suffered no lands in the carnage. Our great and most holy Boar in waiting told us via his omens that we should research in magick to defeat the giants but our task is becoming more hard everyday as the giants destroyed our near completed fortresses! The people of marvenii urge the international community of CIVILIZED peoples to help us in the war against the giant threat. I urge you to help expulse the treacherous giant rats out of our lands and return them to their usual calm demeanor! Please, help the druids while our god does not arrive!

Could I persuade you to help Abysia's war against Ulm? Ulm is the largest, and Abysia the smallest. I don't actually know where Ulm is, so I cannot assist the poor lava boy, but I think in the interest of fairness we should redistribute land to the needy. Indeed, I am willing to cede some of my land to Marverni along our southern border, to repair some of the damage you have done to him.

My position on the matter is one of neutrality; Abysia isn't in my good books for unprovoked aggression against Oceania so I'm inclined to ignore Ulm's war with him where I would be forced to action if it was directed at Ermor/Oceania

I'm taking his cap for the Carnutes site and then finishing him off and dropping his coastal provinces to Oceania; If I can I'll take his provinces outside his cap so he can go AI as the siege is ongoing and not have to choke along to the bitter end

His boar might pop up and make things interesting if it's Imprisoned though so you cant completely count him out yet

>>164985748
Grey thing is Reform. It gives a % chance to reform on the battlefield without any damage after death. In their case, it's 50% chance for every unit.

Black heart is disease resistance. Thing is, demons are already immune to disease, so it's fucking useless on them.
