Tiny murderous hoburgs edition

Dominions is a fantasy turn-based strategy 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 strategy game.

Sure. But as you learn the magic system, you won't need to be scared of enemy sacreds like that. Earth Meld + F9 archers = Dead avoidance sacreds, and likely a dead sarzzig. Cirium's are vulnerable to Destruction, which would have been step 2, and then you could have cleaned up Tissith with Earth Attack.

I mean, maybe not that easily. But earth meld and free flaming arrows is not exactly small potatoes for dealing with enemy sacreds. Even cirium would have fallen to SUSTAINED FIREPOWER if you'd handled the positioning right.

So yeah I really like these nationgen nations. I think nationgen's come a long way since I last used it, and has gotten way better.

I'm probably going to sign up for or start a nationgen game after this one, or while it's endgameing.

The whole 'generate lots of nations then pick the powerful/cool ones' idea is pretty good too.

Go into transfer units mode (t), select the unit with the artifact, click RMB, click on the artifact, click on the unit.

What's going on with CastleDoc? We were on turn 32 and then it suddenly skipped to turn 34. And it won't take the 2h file for turn 34, saying that it needs the turn file for 33.

something similar seems to have happened to another game. Just a heads up, I tried to rollback the turn and the game disappeared. I've sent an email so hopefully things will clear up.

The good news is that turn 3 was actualy turn 2 in disguise.

So CoE4 is it shit? Or not too shitty?
And it looks like a rougelike, is that correct?
>>
>>123202912
It's like a pocket version of Dominions with some roguelike elements.

It's kinda neat, but not worth full price IMO.
>>
>>123202912
Ehh it's been described as a "strategy roguelike" and it's vaguely like that, but you control multiple commanders (you start with 2), combat isn't directly controlled, and you run around the map capturing towns and stuff to increase income, like heroes of might and magic.

It ain't too bad, but it does have some pacing problems, especially in MP - things take forever to get going and can move slowly especially because non-simultaneous turns combined with low action points, large maps, and a lot of terrain slowing you down.

And I also think it's a bit 'overpriced', myself.

It's stupid and silly and I have a blast with it. It is very roguelike, yes.

Cost me 19 dollars. I already have over an hour per dollar spent.

It's very good. You just need to realize that often your starting position is shit and spamming end turn while sitting on your 3 or 4 income/resource buildings is the best thing until you can make either another army or make some tier 2 summons.

Or you play warlock, get a phoenix then wait for the enemy doomstack to get itself wiped out in spring after sitting on a iced river. Then you use phoenix to cap everything. Congrats you can now get powerful.

Simply holding up and staying alive often leads to over half the ai killing themselves.

Spawning 1d6 jotun wolves should really take down any 1 pd.

Wolf likely caught an arrow, or that's the old wolf that didn't spawn jotun wolves.

>>123211320
Spawning 1d6 wolves wouldn't really help much if he was at 10hp and just got cleaved in the face by mounted commander getting turn 1 or some shit.
>>
>>123212226

It starts the battle with 1d6 JOTUN wolves. fear 5, 40 hp, etc. Starts the battle. They're there turn 1.

If it died it either caught an arrow, or was scripted to run in, or it only rolled 1 wolf and that wolf got luckily killed by the 1 PD without the PD getting scared and running off. A Jotun Herse might do that.

Mind hunt requires heaps of gems to make work in penetration gear, and sometimes your S4 guy will get feebleminded.

A decent SC will ignore it entirely. It's two MR negates checks.

What it's largely good for is wiping out non-stealth thugs (like flying ones) or group leaders for raid parties.

That certainly sounds like it sucks for everyone who isn't a) an elf b) having an average unit turnover of about 6 months.

>>123214678
Speaking of non-stealth thugs, had a game a while back where I was having some serious trouble dealing with heliophagus thugs and couldn't figure out what the hell to do besides ignore them or try to guess where he would attack next. Is there anything you can actually do against stealth thugs?

>>123216346

>>
>>123216438
Mind hunt will target stealthy units, but I think it's the only ritual which does so and has a decent chance of killing a thug/SC.

You're pretty much limited to guessing where they will go. Using patrollers (with a force which can kill the thug) can help as well, since that makes it harder for them to stealth around.

Apparently Llamabeast was fiddling with some code and several games were affected

Turn 1 just needs to be submitted, no turns beyond that occurred. As suggested, the cleanest way would be to download the latest .trn file and redo the first turn, though submitting the same .2h file if you already did should work.
Thankfully it's just the first turn, so it's up to you.

Using a party member really helps, especially the classes with a harder start. Soldier D (he's in the starting castle) will join you if you have a certain amount of charisma, so most classes can be in a party from the start.

Try to kill enemies in one shot. Trading blows with enemies tends to burn through your consumables and usually isn't worth it. Don't let them get free hits in unless you really need to reposition.

Learn what enemies are tough then run away from them. If you get far away enough they usually lose interest. Some consumables (tangle weed, teleport pills) are great to have just in case you find something nasty.

90+% of his territory used to be made of wastelands.
But now he has berytian territories though and probably around 15-20 bloodhunting provinces.
>>
>>123260073
To be real, it's not even the size that's the issue so much as the fact that they just haven't been molested. All Xibalba wants is to crank out Onaquis and blood hunt their shit until they can replace their shit troops with gigablobs of demons. In a game that's liable to go to super-late game like this one, they're an S-tier threat just for having made it out of the early game in good shape.

Then again, since everyone's getting everything (like, even Kailasa being into blood),the game's way more likely to come down to player knowledge and dedication than anything else.

There are also B1F1 provinces spread across the map and he might have those too.

Flying is also priceless. Personally i've regretted not joining as a flying nation and been working on fixing it the entire game. (when i was joining stalewarriors the choice was jews, xibabla and i think very few other nations)

Hi all...

CoE 4 Didn't cracked by any Scene group that's why you can only play for 2 turns.
It is only cracked by @Voksi_Bulgarian member of the P2P group REVOLT known of cracking of a lot of Scene MP games with there SteamFix cracks.

First crack didn't work well because he didn't remove all triggers. And that crack was posted on a lot of other sites (I mean steal). Then he released 2nd crack that works just fine. Just random place any last 4 digit number and all will be fine.

He did crack for Dominions 4 too (for latest version v4.22).
Both games works just fine in MP, and there is no need for any virtual network (like Hamachi or Tunngle). Just port forward your ports on your Router and you will be fine.

Happy gaming...

Btw can anyone provide latest version of CoE 4 (don't share key file)?

It's the kind of game where sometimes you just get raped on turn 2 and there's really not much you can do about it except maybe turtling in your capital until you have enough gold to buy a decent army.
>>
>>123265893
Eh, it's true for most characters without archers.

Mostly you can defend your capital with 1-5 archers at a time. You just have to stockpile around 100 gold at all times to hire the occasional caster or archer warband in case of emergency.

Different societies are also easier than others. Empire is the easiest by far, as there are plenty of cities, and almost no brigand lairs/ancient woods.

Dark Ages is hell though. Enjoy your 999 deers.

That would lower your income to from ~600 to ~150 gold per turn, plus that would give you neighbor spare death gems for two more casts of BD.

I don't have great scouting yet, but my plan is to take 52 next turn, and my preference would be to get 61 after that and loop around the mountains. Anything else would mean I'd have to backtrack a bunch which I'd rather avoid. If you want 73 you can have it, if not I'll probably aim for that myself before heading west.

I won't touch anything south or east of that if you don't want me to, so you can expand that way as much as you want.
>>
>>123282337
I have a scout there too, but it seems like Agartha doesn't give a shit about him. Temple of Elemental Evil is in a similar position; Agartha gives no apparent shits and Mictlan, who's above it, is tied up in a war with Tíen Chí. Rauxes might be the next to fall; the people around there are in a war too but I think it's mostly an AI war so they might be able to spare a major army while their little ones play whack a mole.

They can't buff, so they're not ideal by any standards. You can set them up for a few roles, though. It's gem expensive, but doable. Fine if you don't have anything better to thug.

I'm tempted to relax my hatred of people endlessly throwing autistic tantrums about turns because at least domg does relatively quick turns, but then I realize it's not the tantrums that are causing the fast turns, the fast turns and the tantrums come from the same source - half of domg having nothing else to do with their lives.

Archer baiting. Put some stuff with high prot/shields etc for them to shoot. If they're not scripted or set to just 'fire', you can have those guys guard commander and pull the archers forward. Otherwise, just let them attack. They'll absorb most of the arrows/bolts until your guys are in melee, and if you use multiple units on attack rear, some will get through and scrag the xbows.

E9 or N9 shard guards will walk through crossbow fire like a light rain.

Once magic actually starts happening, agartha has a lot of counters to massed crossbowmen, the most obnoxious being Earthquake.
>>
>>123291304
Wait what ? Is it 2050 yet ?
>>
>>123292952
Good to know. I actually have N9 and E9, but my shard guards broke right as they reached the crossbow horde. I think it was because I had them in a squad with some of my lighter infantry who died almost immediately. Is it better to make a shard guard exclusive squad? I'm still not very familiar with morale mechanics
>>
>>123294067
>I'm still not very familiar with morale mechanics

i still have to understand how does morale work in a squad with different morales.
manuals say nothing.
is the morale check of a squad the average of everyone's morale? is it weighted by maxhp? is it the lowest morale? what happens if one unit in the squad get spooked and reduce its morale during the fight? how much does it fuck the whole squad? so far no one ever talked about those things.
>>
>>123282557
That's a long way from 73 you're getting from asphodel.
>>
Breytos, I hope you're not planning to do anything unfriendly with those mercs.
>>
>>123294689
It is the average. Don't know about hp weighting, but I believe not.

>spooked.
do you mean fear lowering moral? if so, most likely yes in that it affects the average.

>how much does it fuck the whole squad
having some units with lower moral doesn't fuck it too much, so long as the average doesn't get into terribad.
However, having weak units means it's easier to hit the point where taking any 'wound' causes a moral test, and the penalty for being below a certain percentage.

It depends a lot on your class and the age you're in. Classes that mostly depend on gold and income from villages, like for example Voice of El or Senator, do best civilised ages like the Empire age, because there's villages and cities all over the place, while they're a lot weaker in ages where nature is stronger. But in those ages, classes like Druid or Witch are much stronger.

Squads make morale tests when members of the squad take damage or die. Squad morale is averaged.

Ergo, don't mix your shard guards with anything.

Line formation helps tough troops soak archery. For troops that just get chopped up by arrows, rely on a single box to take arrows and more boxes to rush forward. standard box formation is faster than line at advancing.

N9E9 shard guard should not be worried about crossbows.

Caelum literally made a meme pretender and sent it to the wrong game. He had Awe 10 Azi that was sitting on my capital for 2 turns. Then he said "if you kill it, I'll AI". I killed it, and he gave me some gold as a compensation. I still fucked uo my expansion because of it. And I didn't even kill Caelum. His AI shit is still raiding me.

It's true. It's not even a good build. It's an anti-evoc build designed for lategame, and most people aren't as good as maerlande and therefore don't use it properly. Watching n9b9 jags get cut apart by barechests or shortbows is a singular pleasure.

I've won a lot of games as EA Vanheim. I know exactly how it works, and when I saw you fighting Caelum I knew this was a good chance to stop you before the rape train got rolling.

Sadly, Caelum got rolled and went AI and was also a shitter or whatever, and Mictlan came sailing into me in the other side, and overall i'm now going to put up the best fight I can.

Ermor bordering a double bless vanheim is not an ermor that lives long, in my experience.

If you're Vanheim, and you're willing to call the whole thing off and let me fight just jags, i'd call that a pretty nice deal though.

Works for me. Get your legionnaires back while I recapture my provinces, and you can kill as many jaguars as you like. I just want to capture Caelum, as it's mine by right of conquest.

It's literally cheapest doublebless available for mictlan that's also not shit. People use it because there are very little alternatives within the same price area after titan nerf.

At least one part of it.

Also, inferno is REALLY good for Necro, as he can just summon a shitton of legions because there are a lot of battlefields there. He can also get HoG income from villages.

If you're going for a team play, try Demoman + Necroman. You get both Hades and Inferno access and a lot of sweet stuff.

>get 4000g of gold in a single turn from events

Luck is a weird and cruel mistress.

I always regret misfortune, though. It's so many little annoyances that cause me to waste time and gold and focus.

The scales I always regret the most are Growth. Cause like, wow, 40,000 pop in year 5 or whatever I don't care. By that stage in the game I should have enough land that it doesn't really matter. That +3% gold is meaningful, the population size growth is ehhhh.

I don't know why you think that's my bless, when you've seen my sacreds, but that's not it.

I did go double bless jags, but why would you not do that as Mict?
>>
>>123308501
To be fair, they're both good blesses. I don't think there's much point in going less than tribless with the pretender revamp, but N and B are good ones to include.

>>123308801
If you add W9 it gets good at shredding things too.
>>
>>123326950
>>123326792

I think it's the magic scales in the province that changes the gem amount, did the provinces those events came from have your dom?

>>123329021

Yeah whoops.

F9B9. Don't know why I was thinking N9. F9B9 is a much better bless.

The reason i'd take a single (or even no bless) for Mictlan is that mo money is mo forts is mo jags. And mo mages, which means mo blood slaves, and mo fun stuff like ozelotls.

Double blesses tend to cost too much in scales for a moneyhungry nation like mict.
>>
>>123329443

W9B9N9? Jesus.
>>
>>123329595
>mo
The word you're trying for has four letters.
>>
>>123329595
single bless I could see, but with no bless jags aren't that impressive.
Sloth3 seems pretty much free for mictlan given your best troops are low resource. H3 is a bit expensive, but I'd go Heat 2 even if I was going for scales.
Given that, you can easily afford that single bless and actually make the jags be more than big blocks of low prot hp.
>>
>>123326093

Well yeah.

That's kind of the point of the game. Only one pantokrator.

The point is you get their power/paths/whatever for a period of time until they feel strong enough to go against you again. The idea is to make use of them in ways that makes that worthwhile, and their idea is to play along until they get some strength back and can have another go at you.
>>
>>123329443
You shouldn't take less than four blesses as Mictlan.
>>
>>123330025

Jags have decent stats, it's why they take a bless so well. With their secondform having extra attacks and str, they're basically a skinshifter, and skins are not bad units.

With summon imps and unblessed jags you can do a lot of work, and later on you get leech artillery and wooden warriors. Not to mention eagle warriors are pretty okay even if they're cap only, even without a bless.

Scales mictlan is really not bad. But I agree that a single bless is generally a good idea. I like f9 and w9 for those purposes, mainly for adding killing power to your jags. B9 doesn't add as much killing power as you'd think on it's own, because just as many blows miss and +4 str isn't enough to break past a shield parry in most cases.
>>
>>123306897
no
>>
>>123330431
skinshifters have native regen, so there a lot more like N9 jags.

As for f9 vs b9, I'd take f9 for EA, but for LA where you'll be facing so much heavy armor the b9 seem better. Plus the evo protection. Also the b9 is cheaper.
>>
>>123326792
I honestly seem to have gotten more, and if not more than the same amount, indie attacks with L3 than with Misf1
>>
>>123331012
Shouldn't that be the other way around? F9 means AP attacks which with jags low enc means they cut through heavy armor like a lightsaber through bread.
>>
>>123329595
>I think it's the magic scales in the province that changes the gem amount
They unlock different events, gem results are up to diceroll.
Luck is unreliable as fuck in my experience, unless you are willing to take a hit with turmoil.

>>123331012
I don't understand why people go full fire in general. F4 or F6 gives you most of the real benefit of the fire bless at a much cheaper price point.
Even in EA there's plentiful of heavy and medium armor, and once earth buffs come online it's even worse.
Fire is more of supplementary bless.

>>123331289
>F9 means AP attacks
>cut through heavy armor
That's literally not what F9 does, the fire aspect of it is 100% worthless against heavy armor and is barely works against medium.
>>
>>123331289
the ap is only on the 6 extra damage.
against arm <10 that's nice extra bit of damage. Once you start getting to arm 14, it's not going much.
>>
>>123331289
F9 damage is a separate check, and the damage is small enough that it generally gets ignored by heavy armor.

Increased strength from B9 is much better, since it makes their attacks strong enough to regularly break through armor. BV also doesn't check armor which helps a bit even though the damage isn't great.
>>
>>123332038
F9 is actually pretty good to have as magic, desione. So is N9. B9 is comparatively less valuable, just because blood slaves are plentiful enough that having more blood dudes is generally better than the advantage offered by one big guy.
>>
>>123332291
>F9 is actually pretty good to have as magic
What are you getting out of F9 that you can't get with F6?
Does your strategy involve a massed use of fire snakes or summer lions?
>>
>>123332038
>I don't understand why people go full fire in general.
compare it to full death. Heavy armor is a problem for fire, but medium armor just makes it comparable to death bless.
if the majority of the units you face are prot 10 or less, which is the case for EA, 6AP does 1+ damage after prot, compared to 2 damage from the death weapon which can be negated by MR.

The fire also pops fog warrior and hits ethereal.
>>
>>123332418
full death has pale rider max abuse
>>
>>123332415
Summer Lions are actually worth making when you get 13 per cast.
>>
>>123332291
High blood is less valuable because it has 3 boosters (none of which require crosspaths) and a lack of good scaling rituals for a B9 mage to use.

Plentiful blood slaves has very little to do with it. You could replace slaves with gems and B9 casters would still be relatively useless.
>>

>which is the case for EA
Elves roll with 10+ protection, giants roll with 10+ protection, human nations roll with 10+ protection.
"Majority" is a major overstatement. Not that many nations really go with low protection and then midgame comes around and somebody casts marble warriors.
>>
>>123331012

The f9 isn't for the fire damage.

It's for the +4 atk.

Most stuff doesn't ignore hits from an obsidian sword due to armour, it's due to dodging, repel, or shield parry. +atk helps get past that, and then the str + obsidian sword damage does the rest.

The fire damage helps, it's another 2d6 roll that might go in your favour, and it pops Fog Warriors which people love. But the +4 atk is the main thing.

Also skins regen rarely matters. Helps them not get afflicted but it's their secondshape with it's hp that keeps them alive, not the 2-4hp/turn.
>>
>>123333132
>Elves roll with 10+ protection
TNN, Formor prot 10 on cap elves, less on for bolg
Vanheim does, but not 'elves'
>giants roll with 10+ protection
that mostly true.
>human nations roll with 10+ protection.
no.
I'm double checking right now, and while a number have access to prot 11, or maybe 12, a lot of the commonly recruited units are prot 10 or less.
The high prot units are pretty shit in EA.

Majority is not an overstatement.

BoT slowly drains population, so it hurts blood even worse than other nations.

You can't cast that spell and then expect to do diplomacy as usual; it's the spell you cast when you have your immortal mages ready to go and want to get invaded so you can start screwing over armies instead of just economies.

>>123334196
The most you'd ever empower to is blood 5, and that's for demon lords. Outside of demon lords, all you need is a single mage empowered to blood 4 and you have access to just about everything in blood.

You could replace a B9 mage with a B5 mage and get almost the same results, F9 can at least spam summons and alchemize fire gems much more efficiently.

If we were talking about the value of B4 vs F4 on a pretender I'd agree, but nobody ever empowers to B9.

We do not disagree that F9 is better than B9 for spellcasting purposes. I was saying that high blood in general (B4, B5, B9) is less important because you can get to whatever spellcasting level you want. You are nitpicking that we're talking about B9 specifically being something to empower to, which is both misinterpreting what we're saying and incredibly autistic to argue against given that we're in agreement on the value of the build in question.

>a lot of the commonly recruited units are prot 10 or less
Having 10 protection or less on a recruitment doesn't mean you go to battle with 10 protection. Legions of steel are widely and early available to everyone with earth. It tends to bump borderline 10prot infantry a bit above. Even then, you are overstating the number of commonly recruited troops with 10 prot and under.

Ermor has plentiful medium and heavy infantry, Ermor's sacreds are well protected.
Ulm relies on troops that have 10 prot and above. Earth magic everywhere.
Sauromantia is 10 protection and up, their good shit is 14 prot or archers.
Tien chi uses medium infantry, warriors are also fire resistant.
Abysia is full heavy and also on fire.
>Vanheim does, but not 'elves'
Vanheim, Helheim are both elves and have above 10 protection on most of their shit, definitely on the shit they commonly use. Earth magic if needed.
Nifelheim, Hinnom have good protection (later has earth) on most of the shit that sees use.
Berry doesn't really use their infantry that much, but colossi or elite warriors are above 10 protection. Basic infantry is 10. Earth magic.
Therodos has well protected sacreds. Can be arsed to look at other water nations.


Other cases:
Agartha has cheap massable summons with fire resist that come online year one. Sloth has trouble fielding heavy infantry, but still earth magic.
Pangaean centaurs are t9 protection before berserking, 12 after. Earth magic, but not too widely available. Revellers are midgame strat that tends to come buffed.
Machaka fields well protected infantry if it doesn't go sloth. Earth magic.
C'tis either skeletons (that die in one hit), chaff or well protected falcheeoneers (native lizard protection on top of the armor).


I don't know what common troops you see in EA, 10+ protection have been my experince forever.
>>
>>123337329
its on the llamaserver page.
>>
>>123338387
Also, forgot tir. You are wrong about Tir's elves being cap only, that's only for sacreds.

I should have marked them orange though, because they are borderline case - midgame N9E4 tir gets legions of steel or marble warriors though earth boots. Construction and alteration are their focus schools.
>>
>>123338387
I haven't chimed in on this debate yet, but you make good points, particularly regarding earth magic.

I think the anon(s) saying 10+ prot is rare are looking at prot-on-recruitment. Also worth noting that the more common difference in EA is I think not so much the body prot as it is the lack of shield/helmet.

'busy with'

I lost some skinshifters in jomon due to stupidity, but that was about a third of my troops. At no point was more than a third of my guys anywhere near jomon.

I was 'rushing' in the sense that I took a few provinces from someone without the ability to defend them, then noticed relative weakness and took a poke at a bit more with an expansion force.

That you said in thread and in-game messaging that I was 'weak' and 'rushing' you to get people to attack me is skilled diplo. That the entire world invaded me and now i'm a pocket state with armies literally going from one province adjacent to my forts to another one to fight a different enemy on the other side, due to believing blindly that I was vulnerable, is the worst thing.

A small group of Red Guards led by a ceremonial master would be ideal if you have a good bless.

If you're just hitting PD you might see better results with Imperial Horsemen rather than infantry, but I'd prefer using stuff you want in your primary armies. It has the advantage that you can easily reinforce/split armies, which doesn't work as well if you're using dedicated raiding forces.

I played only a few hours, but it looks interesting enough.

The premise is the same as in KoDP - your village awakens after long darkness when monsters roamed the world. The overland map mechanics looks more like Civ games though (maybe even more like recent Sorcerer King). You have your village hex, and other hexes with resources/monsters/places. You have a limited number of villagers, each with different stats and roles. You can equip them and send them to gather shit, kill monsters or explore ruins. There are many KoDP-style events with a lot of text, so if you liked it you'll probably like this game.

The only potentially controversial thing you might dislike is challenge resolution system. You see, instead of straight skillchecks/die rolls, there's a card minigame of sorts. All your villagers that participate in the challenge have their character card that you can play. The goal is to destroy all enemy cards. It resolves like M:TG or similar games - each card has attack and HP. But the "attack" and "HP" values are determined both by character stats and the challenge type. For example, in battle (the only challenge that can lead to death of your characters) your warriors are really good, but when it comes to fending off the curse/ speaking to people, they will have very low HP and attack values.

I recommend pirating to see if you'll like it like the other anon said.

I like it.

Conflict resolution is like a card game where your party members are the cards and their abilities depend on their stats. It's a simple system, but it has sufficient depth to stay interesting and the fact that it doesn't just cover combat (though that's most of it) but also negotiation, removing hexes, sneaking, etc. is neat. One stat can have different roles in different situations. Like, Intelligence can be used as a counter in a Hex challenge, but it's your main offensive stat in an Intellect challenge. A slightly more classic approach to turn-based combat might be preferable in some ways, but it's done competently enough and the novelty factor is worth something as well.

It has a lot of Slavic mythology stuff and though I don't really know enough about it to say how accurate it all is, it's at least a decent change of pace from most fantasy. You still get generic stuff like Orcs and Elves, but at least that's not all there is to it.

The main downside I see is that it can get a bit repetitive, especially with repeated playthoughs. The game heavily encourages playing through multiple times to unlock new gods (and thus new options and quests), but I don't think the game has enough going for it to warrant the dozens of playthoughs you need to unlock everything. At least failed playthrougs still give you unlock points, so that's nice.

So far the best moment in the game for me was when I was fighting a bigass Zmey and my adventure party got their ass handed to them, so I just packed up every peasant in my village and had them mob the beast to death.

The statline is good enough for a thug, thugs tend to die easily when countered and in general mages counter thugs easy. it's maybe just a bit overpriced (by like 10-20 gems) while not doing anything impressive.

a few tips :
Pax Romana :
Don't go too far with your starting army if it's too weak : you might encounter the enemy, and if it's a troll king, a barbarian, or a fast summoner class, you're in for a world of hurt. Instead focus on a kinda conic expansion. If you can scout ahead with minimal losses(with ravens, a phoenix, or a carrion beast for example) then do it.
Once you can afford it, always have a few captains with a small army in your inner domain to get back lands from animals/bandits
Once you get a fire mage, and if you can't capture them/transform them, burn ancient forests as they will fuck your shit up by spawning animals around them. be careful : move after burning them or your mage will take damage.
Never let go of bandit lairs/graveyards if you can. hunt and destroy everything they spawned and capture that shit.
If there are horrors lurking/hades nearby, build only archers/xbows for your captains and have them defend the fortified settlements.HAVE SCOUTS IN ALL OF YOUR ARMIES

Then you need to know what to get with your class to disable your principal menaces. Some of them will often basic stacks of normal troops, and reliably demolishing that will allow you to take all cities and towns /ports, thus get bigger.

They won't be well led, but there are a lot of them.

BTW, belated props for not going AI the minute you were attacked. Caelum was total bitch and didn't even try to weaken me.

Have to go out of town on holidays, so set myself AI. Sent some gems/gold/items out to people, and set every mage in my empire to start shitting out undead.

Shoutout to both of yall for being bro tier neighbors though.

Seriously, fuck winter.

The only thing that I appreciate about it, is the fact that Hoburgs are more fucked than me.
>>
>>123384957
no, we did one with the steam group with 8 players.It was unbearable.
>>
>>123387050
Yeah winter is awful.

Especially if you're already surrounded by terrain types that cost a lot of movement.

There's a moose near me.

And it's winter.

And it's in the forest.

And it's probably going to move deeper into the forest the very next turn.

I either waste 4 turns chasing it, or leave it be so it could capture my villages later on.

This game is suffering.

I could've gone Necro and beat everyone be thankful

Nah, he actually becomes weaker. But he spawns free troops every year, so it's all good. And you can hire another Baron after coronation.
>>
>>123389889
The first Emperor upgrade and the King upgrade don't give magic.
>>
So did Illwinterjews really just increase Dominions 4's price to 34€ a couple of weeks before this 25% off sale? I remember the base price for it was somerthing like 25€.
I'm not even going to buy the game after this, fuck them.
>>
defro, don't you know how to speed up combat animation or something?
>>
>>123390256
Nope, it always cost that much. You are probably remembering some previous sale price.
>>
>>123390256
>I remember the base price for it was somerthing like 25€.
Looking at the price history at https://steamdb.info/app/259060/ it looks like you're mistaken.

Thanks for the info, pals. Might do as you suggest and pirate it to take a look first. I haven't pirated shit in ages but I guess that's 'cause I usually have an easier time figuring out if I'm going to like something.
>>
>>123391004
same here but Ineed it for hoburg crossbows

We need a new thread, m8s.

On the bright side, that CoE4 shit sure allows it to stay alive for longer.

>>123391182
You can thank Fartmaster for being slow as fuk so I have plenty of time to shitpost in between turns.
>>
>>123391339
>me being slow
I literally just move my stack one turn and press 'y'. It's either you, or the shitty game.
>>
>>123389992
>magic items
how the fuck do you get them? I've gotten 1 or 2 from libraries or w/e but is there a way to craft like in dom4?
>>
>>123391495
Nope. You have to kill strong indies/recruit adventurers that might have them. Sometimes summoned Mound Kings and demons have them too.

They're immortal, so you can at least keep scouting with them.

So everyone has turned in this turn... everyone except Gath who has staled 5 straight times.

Question, is the AI worse than unending Stales?
>>
>>123390824
They changed that, the actual price was 29€, I remember checking that same graph a week ago.
