thats the dumbest fucking thing i've ever seen.

dammut, hows Caelum supposed to read my thread when he comes out of the Australian space-time continuim.

is 1000 rp a turn too much?

>>167120376
No? ~2k is considered pretty normal for late-game when you have a shitton of lab rats.

>>167120440
jesus christ

do you really need to research every spell?

and when is late game considered late game

>>167120376
1k is fine if the mid-late game is a period of constant total war

>>167120558
You need to win the game. If you can't do that when you have the very basic combat/summon magic your nation needs, then you have to do it when late-game comes or not at all.

Early game is usually when you have almost no magic and must expand and fight with troops.

Mid-game is when you research game-changing spells that allow you to use your mages extensively, like horde of skeletons, thunderstrike + storm, earthquake and magma eruptions, buffs for thugs. Mages and good scripting win mid-game wars, but elite troops can still be helpful.

I'd say reaching 7+ in one path and around 5 in several others is considered mid-late-game. Alternatively, some nations can go for 8-9 in one path for globals or strong summons. When magic/thugs/SCs/a lot of raiding is needed to win, and you have a lot of options, that's late-game. Also indicated by constant headache when you do your turns.

>>167120949
>that allow you to use your mages extensively, like horde of skeletons, thunderstrike + storm, earthquake and magma eruptions

that means I can get mid game by turn 20

I just hit my first, ench 7, now I don't really know where to go. I really want army of gold, but the end game summons are also nice and I could use high level evo.

>>167121379

noob with EA machaka. how much do i suck and what can i do to improve

>>167123156
Did Yomi conquer the other nation then?

>>167125397
Why not pick some of the top names from our footy team, since those have already won votes?

>>167125465
pretty suk read the manual

>>167125465
You do not need F6. Machaka has D/F, which means its F gets as high as you need it.

Do not take a dormant dragon, in general.

Machaka expands fine, and expands very well in summod if you can exploit their foreign recruitment, but they are not at all resource gated except on the foreign rec stuff which is out of your dominion anyways.

I like taking an awake expander to snowball expansion. Machaka isn't scary enough to be gang-banged, and getting big means more and faster forts and mages to get your magic, which you need.

tl;dr - take an awake if you aren't confident in your early game, don't take prod

>>167125465
A few things:

Dump heat to 3, they're the easiest free scales to gain. Prod 3 is pointless - your troops suck, some amount of sloth is usually taken. The dragon is extremely overpriced for what it does, and outside rare circumstances should never be taken - and F6 gives you nothing for a path anyway. If dormant is what you want, A4 gryphon is way better.
I highly advise magic scales, your troops suck so you'll need research to compete. I also advise an awake, ideally the White Bull - unlike the snek trampler gods can cause some early pain to many nations, and expands just as well.

>>167125701
>>167125829
v2

>>167126115
looks fine, honestly. If it gets you an extra scale, though, I'd probably just leave N at 1. You don't need the path.

>>167125465
If you're going dormant, don't take an early game combat pretender, it'll wake up once the expansion phase is already over. As far as magic paths go, you want to either get 9 or as little as you need (9 for the major bless effect, in this case flaming weapons which is an additional magic attack whenever your sacreds hit).

>>167126265
what paths are good then other than e6?

>>167126115
>>167126265
N2 is actually v useful because of Personal Regen (and as Machaka, you're probably researching Enchantment ASAP anyway). But otherwise, yeah, you won't get much use of N4 on your bull.

>>167126814
E6 is enough. Your bull is an expander and a big ritual caster later on. Trying to make your god into a swiss army knife is a common mistake - it's usually enough if he can do one thing really well.

>>167127084
>>167126279
>>167127236
so putting it at two gives me enough so that i can get dom7, should i just leave it at that?

>>167127308
I'd leave dom at 6 and get an extra scale. Magic's nice.

>>167127308
Yeah, it's p good.

>>167127351
what would you suggest?

>>167127308
>>167127351
On the other hand, your best mage is a heretic, meaning you want as many candles as you can get. YMMV, both options should be alright.

>>167127476
>>167127351
>Magic's nice.

>>167127526
It's not really an issue as long as you don't keep a stack of boudas in your capital. Heretic preaching doesn't spread from one province to the next like normal dominion (although it will cancel any growth to your lab province).

>>167131802
S5 is the mandatory one for a crafting disciple, and you probably want A4E2+ for air boosters and staffs.

Does this seem sensible? From my understanding I can boost earth quite a bit with items so its not so bad. I was thinking about maybe going into fire too.

>>167132302
I would actually boost Blood to 2, so you can make blood stones. Assuming you have a source of slaves somehow; maybe you can buy them.

>>167132302
Dwarves have +1 to crafting, you need only A3 and E2 and so on for the relevant items. You might want higher levels anyways for the spellcasting.

>>167132569
It's an EA disciples game, so odds are p good that they have blood access. If not, they have other issues.

>>167133114
Ok dude, after some consideration I came up with this.

F1: flaming skull+staff of elements = flame helm
A3: Air Helm, wears helm and makes Bag of Wind.
W1: Makes Water Bracelet, can make Sea King's Robe with Staff of Elements
E2: Wear Earth Boots, make the Staff of Elements
S4: Crystal Coin + Starshine Cap gets you rings
D3: Skull Staff lets you forge Scary Face (I don't recall what it's actually called), with that and both rings you can summon Tarts, plus D+F lets you get Fire Skull for F boosting
N1 and B2 I already covered.

I've never played Ulm so I don't have a feel for their mages, but this should get you every relevant booster, which sounds like a fun way to play to me. Hopefully you have 3+ teammates so they can send you raw materials.

>>167134243
That's a pretty complete rainbow.

desu, usually I'd say that a full on rainbow god is bad for disciples as opposed to some sort of SC/monster. You can divide the paths for high end items between your teammates (ex an N9 god, an S5D5 something, I mean it all depends on what chasses you're using and what yur native magic is) and then instead of having a dorf that doesn't do much early, you can deploy an SC for year 2 fighting

>>167121379
Army of gold if you have good troops.

Lategame evocations < Lategame mass buffs (unless it's turn 1 like RoS), and most of the good buffs are in alteration.

If you don't have good troops, go for summons and try to win with SCs and/or thugs.

I agree, the anime'd Annunaki slut would be better if the head was made smaller. Her entire appeal is appearing 'thicc'. By enlarging the head, she just looks chibi

>>167145627
Speak for yourself. To me, the appeal is her dainty savage talons and her feathery, draping wings.

You lose the duel with the rolls:

(3,4), (3,5), (3,6) -> 3
(4,5), (4,6) -> 2
(5,6)-> 1
I'm counting the draw as losing since you lose your mage.
So 15/36-> 41'6%
It isn't as low as you think, senpai.

If you only want strictly lost duels it would be like this:
9/36 -> 25%
Less likely but I would kill to have 25% to get the lottery.

Rus, I don't appreciate the fact that you're trying to cut me from Machaka. I got items from your "thug", and I'm gonna send them to you when my dude gets to the lab, but I'm taking his cap, as you're too slow with his other forts.

Also, do your fucking turn.

>>167142636
He's right tho, the head is too big

Any EA games in the making?

>>167151131
I'm too slow taking his forts stacked with high strength (but admittedly low value) summons while fending off attacks from Xibalba and TC, and once I finally achieve a break out I'm trying to "cut you off" and not conquering a foe who attacked me without provocation? Meanwhile you're going to go capture his lightly defended capital without a battle, while I have defeated his armies in the field? What perfidiousness, from someone I had considered a friend for his help against TC, who I'll point out continued to send armies my way even while you were besieging his cap. Very well, I don't intend to stop you, as I have two armies of his yet to clear.

Any suggestions on how to Vamp Queen in LA Ulm? I am fairly new but i have gotten expansion down pat pretty good with xbows and shield infantry and despite this being my first blood nation i have a good blood economy going. But after that im lost.
Vanp counts/lords seen strong and supposedly make good thugs. But what equipment works. Armor or just stick with invulnerability. Brands?
But besides my invulnerable horde sticking around is there any critical spells or items to achieve? Any help for mid to late game would be appreciated.

>>167153291
Oh just to mention my pretender is vamp queen blood4 death4 dom6 ord3 prod3 growth3 misforturn 2 i dont remember if i had any cold

>>167153003
>TC sending armies
Do I really need to post a battle report of him losing 999 mages to my forces again?

And I'm pretty sure you attacked Xibalba first, so you have no one else to blame but yourself.

If I really hurt your conqueror's pride that much I can always pay you for his cap and your thug.

>>167153291
Vampire counts/lords can raid provinces without gear if you just take 2 or 3 of them and use them to spam horde of skeletons. It's a bit less risky than putting gear on them.
Go for Iron blizzard first, then whatever you need after that, construction probably won't hurt since you'll want boosters and other items

>>167153856
Did Xibalba tell you that? He was always the aggressor. And even if you killed 99,999 TC mages, it doesn't change the fact that rather than defend with everything, he kept attacking me until he staled. It's not hurt pride that makes me object, but your obvious designs to conquer everything, including me.

>>167154359

>/domg/ player has designs on conquering all rivals and becoming pantoman.

I can see why this is surprising, but it really shouldn't be.

>>167154359
Uhh, yeah, actually he told me that. Bats will lie to stay alive, I guess. Still, I expand wherever possible. I don't want Eriu with Ermor's death gem income to get Machaka's lands and make even more tarts. Bad for late-game.

>>167153003
I wonder how effective hurt offensiveness is going to be when you're diplomancing with a guy. Clearly >>167151131's passive-aggression failed. Or perhaps not -- you're backing down.

I'd have gone all chill, to put him at ease, sort of like >>167154806. But I have no idea if that'd have worked.

We should have tips on diplomancing, as well as the game's base mechanics.

>>167154535

LA Ulm can build Gate Cleavers, no?

All else fails, get some candles on it with a prophet and a bunch of preachers and just send in Immortals until everyone's dead. You can replenish forces without spending gems. He can't.

How legitimate is a strategy built entirely around crossbows?

>>167155502

Works fine so long as you never have to fight anyone who has Air magic, ubiquitous troops with 20+ prot when you count the shield, or both.

>>167155592
How legitimate is a strategy built entirely around crossbows and countering Air and 20+ prot?

Asking for a friend.

>>167155681
Ironbane breaks the prot unless it's ironskin. But arrow fend will fuck your shit right up

>>167155807
Damn, that's a shame.

Okay: how legitimate is a strategy built entirely around elephants? With morale boosts and such.

>>167155681

Can't be done. Arrow Fend shuts any non-AoE projectile based strategy down hard. That's Ench6, but even before that Storm (and everyone with recruitable air magic rushes Storm) will at least halve your effectiveness, and Crossbowmen are not selected for their usefulness in melee.

>>167155502
Most legit with fire and air mages, against opponents without air.

>>167155862

Elephants are pretty boss, but easily counterable. What paths are you working with?

The main thing to look into will be Rage of the Cornered Rat at Thaum 4, which shuts down the usual morale based counters. Aside from that you'll want various survival buffs. Body Ethereal is great for elephants, for example. Regen's also good.

>>167155862
unless you put every single magic res buff and play at a drain 3 element, the mos tretarded spells will kill your 'phants.

how about you learn both strategies and know when to use them depending on the nation / resources available

adaptability is the most improtant thing in this game

>>167156040
Nothing. I'm just trying to work out a build with elephants, because I like them.
>>167156058
This is correct. But I have to start somewhere. I have to learn one strategy first, in other words.

is indie calvalry or heavy calvary good for flanking like ea/ma ermor or vanheim calv?

>>167156424
depends on the stage of the game

>>167156617
I don't mean to use it as a main game tactic. just an additional, say five calv to flank a side, since they have high defense they can divert armies while my actual army advances on the front

>>167156223

In that case, you can get the most oomph out of elephants given a nation with easy access to Astral (for Body Ethereal and Antimagic) and Nature (for Rage of the Cornered Rat). Those are easy research targets. That closes off most of the common counters to them, although they're still never going to be phenomenal. There's also the usual end game force multiplier spells (Fog Warriors, Army of X, Mass Regen, et cetera), but those are good for everything and you'll likely want to have switched away from elephants by the time they're in play.

They're real good at at the offense, but the low morale, pitiful defence and magic resist make them easy to kill. When Berserking and with buffed MR they'll wreck shit up, but they're still a small number of high HP targets with only average MR even after the Antimagic goes up, so they'll still be vulnerable to stuff like Soul Slay spam, Stellar Cascades, or, indeed, most evocation throwing. Mass Crossbows will also fuck them up. Against those you'll need another approach.

>>167156424

Indie cav of most types is pretty combat effective, but it's always overpriced. You'll get more bang for your buck with national troops most of the time.

>>167155807
Ironbane no longer functions against non-iron equipment, and never caused breaks from middle damage.

>>167156898
One thing being omitted is that elephants also enjoy movement buffs. gift of flight lets them cross the battlefield without being shot, and quickness or haste allow more trampling.

>>167156898
>You'll get more bang for your buck with national troops most of the time.

not all nation haves calvary

in such cases I think it's a good investment. a good calv flank destroy armies

how are you today, /domg/?

>>167157061

True enough. But one Heavy Cavalry is 35 gold. I could have, example picked at random, two Light Bandar Warriors for that, which would probably be a more effective flank force, set to Fire Rearmost.

Take your strategy that's centered entirely around crossbows. Add in your strategy that's centered entirely around elephants. Add magic to taste and baby you've got a win going.

>>167157461

On a Light Bandar Warrior, sticks and stones is two 13 damage projectiles a turn, out to range 15. Per ape.

They can put a lot of shit in the air.

>>167156903
yeah, but if you've got mass crossbows you're playing either MA Mari or Ulm, or you're in LA where fucking everything high prot is iron. Didn't know missiles didn't break it though, which is a bit embarrassing on my part.

>>167158973
Yes. InsecureCuckoldMod does that.

Admin, I'm asking for a 24h extension again. I can do my turns, but I can't write PMs to everyone because poetry.

>>167159116

Well, Dom4 has (very nearly) done away with permanent gemgens, so late game isn't just "Compare clam stocks with rival. Bigger number wins" now. There are still a few, but they're all Artefacts.

There's been quite a lot of UI improvments, and I think seven or eight new nations?

How does one fights stellar cascade spam? And is Astral Geyser usefull?

>>167160203
They won't purposefully target things that they can't fatigue.

>>167160203

Undead are the usual goto. You can also evo catch with some frontliners with high HP while your own mages blast them and/or skelespam.

Astral Geyser is great against low MR targets, and is a fine option for higher astral casters than your Cascade spammers. For maximum effectiveness you'll probably want Eyes of the Void, Rune Smashers or both though. Anything with high MR can shrug it off otherwise.

>>167159353
That's good. Any of these new nations extra fun?

>>167162026
Xibalba is fun for everyone who isn't playing against them.

Same with ragha, and in a very different sense, therodos and Ys.

Vanarus, Asphodel, Ur, EA Machaka, and Berytos are more reasonable.

Lots of other nations play differently. Giants are worse, Ulms are better.

>>167162026

Notable: the old gemgens are now Battlefield gemgens. Which provide X temporary gems in battle, so they're still useful.

In terms of the new nations since Dom3, the additions are if I recall correctly: EA Ur (ancient mesopotamian buggers), EA Berytos (Carthage), EA/MA/LA Xibalba (Incan Bats/Frogs), MA Nazca (Mayan goast burds), LA Ragha (temperature dependent zoroastrian burds/abysians), EA Therydos (underwater goasts), and MA Ys (underwater elves)

Most of them are fairly fun, there are some which are total dogshit, and some which are murderously OP.

Is the WW2 Atlantis modder still around? I'd quite like to see more of what he's working on.

>>167162419

Things to do now include figuring out what to make the kings and queens look like, doing coastal recruits with real guns instead of spearguns, coming up with a handful more summons and actually doing the stats for everything.

That said I guess I have had this floating around for a while. Still wondering what sort of weapons you would strap to a monster fish. I figured Atlantis would have more Conj options instead of Const or Blood like the others because they could gear up sea monsters and tanks and plains dont really work well under water.

I think I might go with an asp turtle with a tank cannon and some fish with suicide bombs strapped to them. If that last one sounds too wacky for some people then they should remember that people in real life tried the exact same thing but with bats.

There's a strong working-class bias against getting help of any kind, but especially mental. Or at least, that's the stereotype.

This is working off English culture though.

Thats a good idea. So far as magic goes I think they will have good A, F, E and W (the first 3 to make submarines and water because they are fucking Atlantis) one mage with N1 and maybe something else (a medic like the other nations have, hes the red and white shambler from the picture) and some sort of pollution clean up guy with D1W1 and a random chance at more shit.

Deep sea creatures are CUTE

We need to postpone Teaching_Feeling until we find a Vanheim sub. This is because team Vanheim/rus borders Mictlan and Jotunheim, and the rest of the game cannot afford them getting any bigger by eating a staler and a noob.

use evo bait.
use crossbows.
use spells that kill their mages.
use spells that kill their guys faster than they kill your sleeping guys.
use troops with auras and your own fatigue magic.
use spells that kill everything slowly like foul vapors + poison res troops.
use spells that kill everything quickly like RoS to dunk their SC spammers.

Cascades is honestly one of the easiest tactics to counter. It's good because it lets you use a lot of mages in a cost effective manner and fairly early on, but it only really does one thing - stop your melee units from killing things. If you have tactics that aren't "kill things with melee units" then you should be fine.

I lost my testing game due to domkill and setting everything back up is annoying.

Are Air Elementals just the best summon ever? I've been trying them out and they kill pretty much everything for free. I know any sort of elemental spam strategy is costly in terms of gems and mage turns but it really seems hard to lose with these guys. Maybe something with both very high prot and relec can do something about them but even just having one of those is not at all enough.

>>167178554
That is the worst part about testing.

>>167178950
Water Elementals are also pretty good, but thats mostly because there isnt much to spend water gems on.

>>167178950
Air elementals are really good. Tanky and they trample. Earth elementals are as good as air elementals in this role, but earth is more common. Water elementals in cold become ice elementals and are basically worse earth elementals. In neutral and warm temps, water elementals have 3 attacks and good damage resistance, so they generally kill thugs. Fire elementals are ethereal and hit entire squares with an AP fire attack, so they're pretty boss too. Basically, elementals are great, use them.

>>167178950
air elementals get Dubcek against magic weapons

all four kinds of elementals are useful in some form.

>>167179476
>>167179262
Water Elementals are also basically insta wins underwater.

I'm tempted to go full meme with an iron arm for 2 weapons and a shield.

>>167182316

That's a decent plan, actually. A Lighting Spear and a Brand give him good killing power against both single hard targets and hordes, and he's got three misc slots, so the iron arm doesn't mean you're missing a vital slot.

>>167181761
Mictlan or Ermor?

>>167182475
Why Lighting Spear?
Because of the armor negating damage?

>>167169303
kek

>>167182475
>>167182316
Him being non mindless and having low MR is an issue, what about amulet of antimagic? Also maybe lead shield instead of vine shield?
If you are playing in summod you might add hydra armor so it has some regeneration while not losing your last misc slot.


Also 6 encumbrance means you are going to need a real lot of reinvigoration, how about rainbow armor?

>>167183007
Screw it, make it hydra armor, +3 reinvig boots, amulte of resilience for +5.

With that you are fatigue positive.

>>167183115
Then with lead shield + antimagic amulet you will have it at 21 MR which is usable.
But well, vine shield will probably be missed.

Some classes have good synergy, like senator and demonologist. In multiplayer game you can invade with multiple characters together. But in single player you can use your senators troops to protect your demonologist summons.

My position is untenable. Everyone else is twice as big as me and I've lost so many recruitment centers that I cannot effectively fight anyone one-on-one. Waiting for someone else to declare war so I can jump in and try and get some forts.

Just started a war against the biggest power in the game, no idea how it is going to go.

It's been 2 turns. I think I'm 2 provinces away from someone's cap, and I took a big bless so I might be in a first year war soon.

Got a free fort event. Then a free lab event in the same province. It is turn 6. But I have no fucking space to expand and I'm vulnerable to rush, so despite taking L3 irl I'm about to get fucked I suspect

While it was all but assured last turn, I didn't see the official victory until now.

Rus is a really cool nation. My favorite thing about it is that you have to choose which type of magic you're going to use in any given fight since mixing communions kills all the slaves, but at the same time you have the option of hot-swapping your tactics between different turns with the same mix of mages. It gives them really great tactical flexibility which is a lot of fun to use.

Anyways, gg everyone, especially Arco who played extremely well.
