certainly that one works

How does Summon Lammashtas work? And is it good?

From the description it says the two units it summons are not loyal to the caster but will probably not attack him. What about other units on the caster's side, for example? Anything else I should be considering with this spell?

>>182979624

It used to murder your guys then do fuckall but now they are supposed to spawn not as close to the caster so maybe more useful..

Explain lore to me please. What exaclty happened in Ermor between EA and MA? From what I gathered Ermor conquered large chunks of world like Maverni, Sauromatia and others. Then shit hits the fan with necromancers usurping power and causing cataclysm. Ermor breaks up with Sceleria, Pythium and Mavirgon as successor states.

>>182981909
Ermor tried to revive their old god/messiah or something to prevent the foreseen cataclysm but them doing that caused the cataclysm.

So what's the deal g with Jotun stone hurlers? I've never used them with any of the ice giants but I've seen here and there that they're actually really good.

>>182983085
like with Agarthan (nonsacred) throwers they're bad for most combat purposes but they're by far the most gold-efficient siegers the nation has

>>182981909
Not-Rome conquers most of the known world including Iberia/Gaul (Marveni), Germania (Ulm), Sarmatia/Scythia (Sauromatia) and probably Egypt (C'tis) where they learned death magic from Sauromancers (they certainly had close ties if not sovereignty), practised by newly formed order of Thaumaturgs. Later, Thaumaturgs foresaw a great cataclysm and advised the Emperor's brother to rebel (forming Sceleria) and civil war ensued. Sceleria marched to siege the Emorian capital of Eldregate and in attempt to break the siege, the defenders let Death loose, the very cataclysm Thaumaturgs had divined (ie. it was a self-fulfilling prophecy). The brother of the old emperor claimed the imperial crown and moved the capital elsewhere while the death cult of thaumaturgs works to keep death at bay, but during all this chaos, now Romanized (Ermorized?) peoples in conquered territories broke free from the imperial rule.

>>182982191
This would be neat and kinda makes sense given that EA Ermor has early Christianity theme and I don't think Dom3 fluff directly contradicted it, but Dom4 is pretty clear about the events.

>>182983998
Seems I missed lore parts where they even took Ulm. I was under impression they only fucked them up badly but did not conquer them.

So lorewise MA is Sceleria, Pythium, Mavigron fighting against Ermor undeads until in end combining their forces and defeating it?

Its funny how MA pythium is closer to christian East Roman Empire while LA Pythium is late era Rome pre christianity with lots of mystery cults and mithra.

>>182992038

Well they adopted the Serpent Cult specifically after C'tis sauromancers were invited to help against Ermor.

5 water gems and a fort turn for a raiding party seems pretty good

>5 water gems, 110 gold, a mage turn and a fort turn without a mage for something that dies to 1 PD

literally worthless

>>182995273
It's 90 gold, but I was mostly asking if it did, in fact, die to one PD. I can try it, I guess

>>182994903
>>182992838

I'm assuming MA?

That's a fort turn that could be used for a mage and 50 resources that could be useful chaff + 5 water gems for a unit that dies to 1 PD. It's not like you've got gems out the wazoo as Pythium anyway, you're also wasting a turn of research on a therug.

>>182995158
Hochmeisters, Black Lords, Paladins and such are a borderline case, but they are still pretty much never used, since they still die very easily and you are almost always better off recruiting a mage.

>>182995627
In ME Paladins make decent tanks due to being spammable and having national holy spells that make them not shitty.

>>182970324
Blindfighters aren't really worth a bless, but E4N9 makes them pretty decent, yeah.

>>182999317
LA Pythium if that's not clear.

>>182998940
Divine Emperor is genuinely bad. You're better off with a Great Sage or any other human chassis, really.

>>182999494
for rainbows you need a solid, clear plan and strategy. What things do you want from him? Do you just want a general utility mage? If so, you're gonna have a bad time, and more scales and an expander will always be better than just "one really good mage". If you, say, have specific goals like lamia queen turbocomms, or a ring forger we can actually help out.

>>182998940
Depends on what you want to use it for. I'm assuming you are doing it for the rule of cool and not tryhard optimization so be aware there are better picks. You could take it dormant with a bunch of other low level paths and use it as sitesearcher/researcher/emergency communion master for every spell in the game or you can take it imprisoned and use it as a lategame big magic caster mostly rituals and the like. If you absolutely had to take it awake then you can use it the same way as dormant only shittier.

>>182998940
The rule for rainbows is to figure out specifically what spells and items you want your god to be responsible for and then tailor it to get access to them. You usually want it to be focused on augmenting your national magic using gems that your mages can find. Don't bother trying to make your god into a site searcher; it takes way too long for that to pay off and god turns are important.

EA Ermor really likes S2E2+ for crystal gear (can use all of it, really - coins, matrices, and shields). N2 might be nice to boost indy N1 mages into better battlemagic and require fewer com slaves for stuff like relief and mass regen. Everything else is edge-case, but I would advise specifically against trying to go for rings or tartarians. You're not a big nature/death power, so you can't easily compete for mother oak / gift of health unless you conquer one and you won't be able to amass a large number of tart summoners.

Something that I personally like is getting lamia queens for communion slaves (2 queens with slave matrices enables 15 masters to spam pillars of flame or banefire or skeletons or whatever indefinitely).

Either way, don't try to add too many or too deep paths, just because since scales ARE worth it and your god's paths are only MAYBE worth it. Definitely don't add paths just to give you 'access' to a path without knowing specifically what spell or item you want out of it.

>>182999756
What makes him so shit? Earmor and Pythium get him really cheap.

Any tips how to specialize it for EA Ermor and MA Pythium differently?

>>183001482
is this god for single player or pvp

>>182965538
what's going on with you and lemuria and does it involve me?

>>183001585
Both in single starting to play that all factions "real" world map which has every nation in "right" starting locations. Doing both EA and MA versions of it.

But also going for some noob pvp game.

>>183001807
For single player you can build your god to however suits the story you're trying to tell, e.g. tons of nature or astral or death or whatever magic whose lategame spells excite you. Even blood and leveraging yourself up with your god bloodhunting, which for Ermor in most pvp games would otherwise be a disastrous waste of time. I'd base the design on the major spell(s) especially global spells you want out of your god. Some of the most comfy ones include Gift of Health and Well of Misery.

For pvp I'd want a better chassis and more streamlined plan so that the god can be more impactful earlier, but for single player storytelling-esque mode you have access to as many turns as you want so there's a lot more you can get away with.

now what kind of person would commit the terrible act of not doing their turns

>>183001482
Others can tune in on this but...
EA Ermor gets recruitable Flamen in all indie provinces that have both a lab and a temple and from them you get access to FAWEN so sitesearching isn't as necessary on them. What is necessary is boosting those paths and making them useable cheaply and in combat. As >>183001037 has recommended you want at minimum s2 and e2 as it allows all the crystal gear to be forged with a starshine skullcap equipped to your god. With astral 6 you can equip a crystal coin, starshine skullcap, ring of wizardry, and a ring of sorcery and with those equipped you could cast wish, arcane nexus, and the other astral globals. Having astral 6 also allows you to forge all that shit which can be used to boost the flamen (for rituals mostly)

At minimum I would get s6 and e3 (earth for troll king's court, earth boots, and dwarven hammers)
I would avoid water since you can boost from 1->3 rather easily but with w2 you can forge bracelets and robes of the sea.
Taking nature 3 lets you forge thistle maces and moonvine bracelets If you bump it up to 5 and take 2 death you can get lamia and faery queens. At 5 you can also cast gift of health
Taking 5 death gives you just about everything you need from there but you already kinda get that with Augur Elders you can gamble with twiceborn to get em up to 4 give em a skullstaff to get em to 5 for the skullface booster to get liches and then tartarians .
With air you need 4 to forge all the boosters but since you could just cast faery court with nature I would go with that over air.

Since it starts with 1 dom I would probably only go to dominion 5, then take something like o3 g3 and magic the end result looking something like this. If you don't get rushed you will probably be fine with this but if you are then you can only rely on your national mages. If you want more points you could probably dump one misfortune and take heat/cold but those are personal preferences.

Lore of Xibalba. Bat people chill out in jungle and undeground caverns. hunting bloodslaves and worhipping demons. Then star hits ocean and tidal waves fill their caverns killing many. Then Atlanteans come fleeing squidheads and kill batpeople who still live in caves and enslave others. This is MA Xibalba? Atlantean frogs enslaving and using remnants of batpeople.

But what happens in LA that makes bats come back as bigger force? Since they were practically genocided before.

>>183004426
For SP that's fine. For MP, the astral endgame is essentially nonexistent and you need a(mong other things) prod 3

>>183004873
>>182985616

>>183004426
Dumping heat will let you use Lizard Auxillaries and probably be better for your fire castings so if you have to dump one then there is that. Ultimately though I am of the opinion that it is better to take great scales, an earth snake, and to set up a fort in every province so you can recruit millions of billions of augurs and elders with all the magic to overwhelm people and using specters which are in no way guaranteed to have the paths you want to forge the crystal shit or you know just empower an earth flamen for like 50 pearls should you be unlucky or unwilling to spend the death gems. But then I'm probably shit so keep that in mind.

I manually edited the Carto Revis map to not suck.

Seas are smaller, water nations are equivalent distance from each other's caps, though some of the connections now use 'rivers' to connect the seas that go through the land. I also added in connected islands so that the seas aren't as divisive, so the map should be more connected overall. Download link is here -

I encourage y'all to take a look and see if you can catch any wonky connections so that I can make sure that it's good before we get started. Removing provinces always leads to some weirdness, but luckily it's pretty easy to fix.

Okay, I think I caught all the wonky connections. Map's been reuploaded to the same link, and it's also been linked in the game page. I'll be starting in a few minutes after one last walk through the provinces

Done.

This is a game that will require a strategy incorporating the stale factor and the immense turn length the game will reach, high research goals, easily repeatable rituals/forging and plentiful freespawn will have extra power. Blood nations are probably going to be more OP than usual and Lanka should be a top tier pick.

>>183040774
Ganas are nice early as a way to fluff out chaff with ethereal units. If you have an erf snek you can buff their prot to make them decent against Magic weapon equipped units.

Vetala are trash, you get 1 per death gem where you can get 2 pale riders per death gem. Given, they're in different paths but generally you want ench 5 before conj 5 unless you're rushing top tier non blood summons.

Can't believe you stole a potential win from Ys, that would have been their first(?)

>>183053510
When I got subbed I had several SCs in striking distance from Ys, if they were closer to winning I could have crushed them easily.

Also most players, including me, where pretty bad and it was a magic enhanced game so it's not really representative of normal Dom 4.

>>183052889
Also, some quick notes on the game from my point of view.

I played B9N9 Bandar Log. I enjoyed the bless but expansion was rough, partly due to taking sloth 3 to get order. In hindsight, I should have gone for turmoil/luck and more production.

The map was awful. It started me out on a peninsula with one way out, which left me with a terrible expansion and forced me into an early war which I hadn't planned or built my pretender for. If you're planning to use it, I recommend fixing at least some of the ridiculous chokepoints.

I enjoyed ME, but I didn't get to use much of it. Most of the astral options were high up the tree, and I was having a hard time researching.

My thoughts on the stuff I did use, or get used against me:

>Celestial Garden
I found it a bit boring at first, but I noticed a lot more uses for it as the game went on. It'd have been a lot more useful if I didn't take sloth 3, since I couldn't recruit any of the Gandharvas.

>Blood Harvest
The income boost was great, like a mini-Nature's Bounty. The units were a lot worse than I was expecting and very few in number. I think I'd have cast it anyway just for the income, but I was expecting to get some usable troops too.

>Grip of the Marshlands
The slime effect should be MRN. This spell was crippling my elite troops even after they broke free, which is very nasty for a spammable W1E1.

>Temple Guardians
Great use of nature gems. It's nice to have a cheap sacred summon as Bandar Log.

>Scarecrows
Too weak to justify the effort it takes to ferry them around. They're a bit cheaper than wolves, but normal commanders can carry wolves around. Scarecrows need to stay with a mage.

>>183052945
I wanted to try Manna of the Heavens, but you grabbed it before I could. How did you like it?

From testing, it seemed like a global which would need a lot of work to take advantage of but which could scale up quite well. I think I calculated 0.5 gems per turn per preacher, on average.

>>183054447

salva monkey?

>>183054491
Nope.

>>183054524

salva no monkey?

I'm not even sure what it does.
I didn't preach so I don't know how many gems it can generate.

>>183056570
>Pan stole the global I wanted and didn't even use it
You're breaking my heart.

If I remember correctly, each guy preaching has a 5% chance of gaining 1d6 nature and 1d4 astral.

Multiple events per turn seem to be possible in a single province, but maybe there's some limit I didn't notice in singleplayer.

>>183053754
>When I got subbed I had several SCs in striking distance from Ys, if they were closer to winning I could have crushed them easily.
What leads you to that conclusion? We were at the same research level and had similar gem incomes. I had my own SC's and a few other tricks up my sleeve, I just miscalculated your available Thrones ;)

Well Giants, I think that about sums up what subsequent fights will be like, this is my smaller stack and while I lost almost as much gold worth of mages that's hardly a concern for me at the moment.

My Northern force is far larger and I've got another stack moving up, I know you've got your little army of pale riders but I seriously doubt it'll measure up.

What is your opinion on N9B9 for LA C'tis?

>>183066251
I haven't played LA C'tis or seriously contemplated what kind of pretender I would personally prefer, but N9B9 is a justifiable approach.

>>183066251
Do sneks have enough HP to justify N9?

Have a game coming up in a week or two.

Also, any MA Marignon tips? Never played them before.

>>183097943
It's alright as a diversity titan able to forge some boosters and summon stuff. Just max heat and growth.

>ganbatte your best
Why not just say ganbatte?

>>183097943
>>183098427
That said, tell us what's the number of players and what nations will you be playing against.

>>183097943
Max heat, max growth, drop order down to 2 for more prod, but other than that it's functional. Just don't expect to win, MA Marignon is notoriously bad. You'll want to rush Conj 5 for fire elementals, and after that get Enchantment for Flaming Arrows. Recruit your crossbows, they're probably the best part of the nation and recruit 2 men at arms and a pikeneer and then continue that pattern. This makes them sit in the same square, meaning the pikeneer can repel attacks that target him, but shouldn't get eaten alive if you just spammed them. You want about a 1:2 ratio of melee troops to xbows, since you need to mass xbows to actually hit anything.

Remember, it is your Pankoman-given duty to fight for justice and remove skeletons.
Flaming Arrows will make your crossbows turn from useless to very, very effective against Ermor and Asphodel.
Be the hero the world needs.

I also highly recommend aiming for some diversity summons with your pretender, because Marignon's basically fucked if someone casts Rain, though not quite as bad as non-blood Abysia.

Ah but knowledge is the key to understanding young curiote.

>>183121670
Thanks for the quick resolution bud.

I wish that pretender selection wasn't so dominated by imprisoned bless statues, awake expanders, and dormant scale-vehicles.

>>183130565
Pretenders need a rework, I think it will take an engine overhaul to achieve. Awake snek and Bull are just too good as early expanders basically any nation can take them without fear. Other pretenders are only viable on a nation by nation basis, bless chassis for bless nations, rainbows for Lemuria. Human chassis are basically non-viable because the cost of raising dom and shitiness of the base chassis offsets any magic diversity bonus. Other monster chassis aside from Snek, bull and some situational fringe picks are made invalid by afflictions and the fact half die to 10 pd.

Titan and Immobiles are both widely viable, depending on what bless you want, however they're generally shit as awakes aside from memes like asshole batman.

>>183130565
Awake researchers can be pretty decent for certain nations.
A lot of chassis are complete trash, though.

How much would giving all pretenders a slower version of recuperate (30% or so chance each turn to heal an affliction) change the meta? Would titans actually be viable?

>>183131023
>I think it will take an engine overhaul to achieve.
Just buff the other pretenders my dude.

>>183131563
Isn't there a Powerful Gods mod that does that?

>>183131563
Awake researchers are decent but even on nations with powerful early research goals you can lose out if someone flash expands next to you, Erf Snek or a bless chassis is just safer.

Giving all pretenders recuperate would basically remove Snek from the game, even if toned down. Do you want flying SC pretender Meta? thats how you get flying SC pretender meta.

>>183131606
Pretenders are pretty balanced compared to some other aspects of the game (the gap between best/worst pretender chassis is nowhere near the gap between, say, Bats and Theredos). The way pretenders work and influence the game need to be tweaked, the game in general needs an overhaul.

>>183131563
Awake researchers are inferior to a bless chassis that allows turn by turn expansion parties or an awake expander. You lose your research advantage by turn 15 or so, sooner if you're against nations with foreign-rec mages

>>183133630
>complains about some pretenders being useless compared to others

>>183134492
Enjoy everyone going awakes, rushing construction 4 and winning the game. Pretenders are relatively balanced, relatively being the operative word, look at the example I used earlier and stop strawmanning.

Within the context of Dominions 4 Pretenders are really tough to balance, too strong and they become the center of every games strategy, too weak and they're a footnote. They are close to a Goldilocks zone, I like the power level of pretenders in general but that balance in reference to the rest of the game means encouraging diversity is difficult without throwing that balance out of whack.

>>183131023
They're kinda like gods from Malazan. Only real qualification to be one is to be able to be sustained via faith rather than life.

>>183135508
Yeah because all those awake earth snakes and bulls are always winning games instantly. Just make the others that level of strong. It would make more sense than a giant magical titan who can control lightning getting its shit pushed in by a handful of guys with crossbows.

What would you say the worst pretender chassis is?
My money would go to the Freak Lord.
Crossbreeding is fucking shit, and a waste of a turn for a pretender.

>>183139771
Freak Lord's at least cheap. It's like any other human mage on a marginally bigger body. My money on most useless would go to some sort of immobile that has undesirable paths or, similarly, a monster with paths that you don't want that also can't expand. Maybe one of the birds.

>>183140061
Myrmecoleon is worth mentioning. Popkill in exchange for a below-average expander. It's not much, but it's really outclassed in it's job by basically every other dog and snek. I guess if you really wanted an EF bless it might be alright, but you might as well pick a titan or an immobile.

Checking again if anyone would be interested in playing a colossal clusterfuck of a game, using maximum thrones, maximum sites, maximum indies, maximum multiples, and common events? Preferably LA for a MAGIC STILL LIVES vibe, but it'll be up to vote.

>>183140765
Myrm's actually a fantastic disciple or dueling pretender. It does significantly better than the snake in an N9 rush build or just a monster rush

>>183140842
Huh, really? Seems like it'd rack up afflictions pretty fast. I guess the berserker and good attack means it doesn't have to worry about it's no-length attacks getting repelled.

On the subject of pretenders, why the fuck doesn't the Divine Emperor get any hand slots? I can kinda understand boots because he's being carried around, but why can't he hold a scepter or something?

>>183141686
