/domg/ - Dominions General

Man, this should have been the Mictlan/Xibalba clusterfuck edition.

Cause its happening again in Fourth Turning. Can't those two just get a stable relationship (dive bats, Mictlan will be domkilled soon).

>>165209375
What'd Xib do?

>>165209548

How does that orb lightning have that long range?

Maverni, I don't know how the hell you managed to recruit that many troops.

but pretender or not, your gauls ain't got shit on the sidhe.

>>165209586
so anything other than an awake pretender is suicide in fourthturning?

fug

Huh. Cruxador is the dude who uploaded Tankard Basher to youtube. Small world.

>>165209375
i even asked him politely not to kill me

>>165209735
honestly he isdoing the right thing, there is always a year 1 gangbang planned to kill bats without fail every time

>>165209671
No, the following nations can get away without an awake, and likely wouldn't even want one:
TNN
Niefelheim
Pangaea
Vanheim
TC
ALL UW Nations
Abysia
Helheim

For the other nations not taking an awake basically comes down to hoping no one looks in your direction for the first 12 turns or so.

>>165209885
Why TNN? I can see most of the others (even if some UW nations are either mediocre or die to the better ones), but... TNN?

>>165209885
>TNN
Better be running a doublebless then, because you can pretty your pretty elven panties that Fomoria's got an awake.

>>165210136
UW nations are on the list because they have FAR more provinces between them. Nearly 20, instead of barely 13 (which means UW nations get OFF the land reeeeeeeee)

TNN is on the list since ime N9E4 sacreds had little issue surviving long enough to kill the awake.

>>165210850
>A low score is related to Dyslexia and Dyscalculia, but also to other diagnoses like ADD/ADHD.
Your group score: 7.1 of 10 (above average).


huh. that is fairly accurate. I tend to really screw up my talking and even my hand writing.

>>165211415
Actually, the pdf's individual trait scores seem to represent my quirks in a fairly accurate way. I always suspected I had one of the dys* diagnoses.

remember that in these studies either extreme is bad.

Oh and if Mictlan is here I'd like to discuss trade either in the thread or on steam; it's like 4 turns to set up a deal using in game chat

What gems are you after man? I can trade every kind other than Nature in some quantity; Blood Slaves I dont have because hunting has been inconvenient up until now.

Also super interested in trading for Dwarven Hammers if anyone has them.

>>165211742
>all those troops

Do fire/death bless count as magic weapons vs Invulnerability?

>>165212353
They each give separate damage rolls. The new damage is magic, but the weapon damage rolls themselves are not.

>>165212353
Yes, and they pop fog warriors too.

Also, what >>165212519 said.

>>165212519
So Invulnerability is still a useful buff when facing sacreds, but not an "I win" button.
Thanks.

It's just natural prot, dude. Marble Warriors isn't an I-win button either.

>>165214134
It's literally only retarded in 4 cases: Mictlan/Xibalba . . . I'm honestly happy to see those 2 nations suffer desu.
Therados' close location, which was caused by them being added as a nation while the map was still in progress.
R'lyeh/Atlantis - the unfortunate implication that R'lyeh only really borders Atlantis UW, and will be coming for them.
Fomoria's sailing. Vanheim isn't on the coast for a reason, Berytos can't sail to anywhere too dangerous, but Fomoria can reach I think 2 or 3 capitals from their own.

>>165214115
Eh, nah.
Ulm and Caelum represent the #1 and #2 nations and Caelum has set Ulm against him by calling for people to jump to action (and then getting a lack of response); even if it's not a war yet so there's very much a cold war vibe where if either is the aggressor against another major nation the other will likely jump in against them

I am sitting probably in seat #3 or #4 with the rest of my 3-6 peers (and sometimes Abysia too!) having to focus on their borders with Ulm/Caelum as long as I remain Neutral.

Now is the perfect time for nationalist shit talking.

Use shield+spear for blockers, and glaive for killing targets which will ignore 13 damage spears.

Spear guys want a lot of killing power in other parts of your army (mages, archers, flanking elites) to make up for their poor offense. Glaives need less help killing things, but can end up dying too fast.

Get light armor for shield guys (they have a great shield, don't really need the protection) and heavy armor for glaives if you have the resources (protection is their main defense, so they need a lot)

If you're not sure which is best for your situation, get spear+shield guys and back them up with lots of archers and mages.

>>165227129

Dryads (both kinds) just kinda keep to themselves and only fug when they want to though. Also mostly SS femdom. They gotta keep this shitshow running so they dont have time to engage in the perpetual orgies. Just harems of humans on demand.

attack a different neighbour on your border and then defend the provinces you're taking against the neighbour you're attacking but not the big guy attacking you while sending messages like "I warned you; you should have listened; you can still prevent this"

Just use 2 skelespammers and 2 soothsayer bitches. Cirno wrote a guide on this; they can fatigue-stable skellyspam.

>>165271508
Pan's cap only units are just their white centaurs, which are like their elite soldiers rather than leaders. The Panii themselves are canonically kinda hermetical - "They are enigmatic and are the most reclusive of Pangaea's inhabitants, living in remote groves and avoiding contact with other beings."

Meanwhile, the dryads are listed as explicitly being "revered by all the wild beings of Pangaea." In LA, they lose their authority to the emergent centaur nobility, but in EA and MA they're the secular and religious leaders of the nation.

Retarded headcanon:
The horrors, and to a lesser extent, the lords of Hell/Underworld/Elements want the Ascension War cycles to continue to prevent the entropy of magic.
Whenever the Pantokrator "leaves" this realm, he essentially incarnates into the realm he enters entire magic, renewing it. All the essentially unlimited flow of gems from sites? All pieces of another Pantokrator's power.
Without this power, the beings of magic start to fade. So keep fighting! Sign on and become a pretender god and save the world(s)!

Based.

Are there any economic non mage human thugs?
I used warrior chiefs for EA Ulm with troops, but never alone.

You guys think illfraud will throw a bone to "mundane nations" in Dom5?

Like instead of using gems for global rituals, you use them to upgrade all your troops in a certain way. Making troops and thugs only tactics for nations hard but "possible"?

>>165284645
You can do that in CoE

>>165284645

>>165284738
I thought tactical warfare and claiming thrones was the point of the game?

>>165284396
>human
Don't use them.

You can even use self-blessing jotun chiefs/jarls whatever they're called, but wasting gems on equipment for humans is just not worth it.

>>165284847
Yeah and your tactics revolve around magic and monsters 90% of the time.

>>165284847
considering tactical combat without taking magic into effect is "hold for two turns or attack immediately" and "where do you want your guys to aim" dominions without magic would be the most boring thing possible

>>165285116
Depends on the nation. I'd say magic is 50% of the game. I mean you have stuff like Ermor where you need magic to even summon your grunts, and stuff like Ulm whose use of magic generally centers around iron blizzard and RoS. Not to mention that in the first year you barely get to use any magic, and for some nations with super fucking nails in dick expensive mages like Helheim it starts on 2.

And no one said anything about "no monsters".

>>165284645
>>165285016
>>165285116
It's kind of sad we don't see much in the way of heroes slaying monsters through some combination of skill of arms, clever trickery, divine favor and powerful artifacts, though. That's an important part of many myths. But I guess the scale of the game precludes much in the way of individual engagements.

>>165285431
you did say "mundane nations", and generally "mundane" doesnt imply you're bringing in half-jaguar monster men or giant shrines on wheels

>dominions without magic would be the most boring thing possible

Nigger I didn't say anything about removing magic from other player's arsenal. I only talked about adding MORE options to someone's arsenal, an option that consists of sacrificing one thing for another.

>considering tactical combat without taking magic into effect is "hold for two turns or attack immediately" and "where do you want your guys to aim"

Hence why I talked about Dominions 5, because this sort of thing can be improved. And there's a lot more other things to take into consideration, like cavalries charging, flyers being flyers, tramplers and re-routing, it's just that late-game all of these stop having any significance because people just cast Fog Warriors and RoS turn 1.

Also seen some people here talk about tile-type (swamp,mountain,wasteland,etc.) affecting the actual battle and shit, that would also be interesting to see.

>>165286042

>>165286249
Raining acid over the battlefield is a tactic.

>>165287578
Petrification from Aegis.

>>165286042

Since you can get fucked over by RNG and having no magic sites on the land you own, why not something like a magic site you "construct" to increase the resources or gold or something of a given province? Or something like industrializing the land?

The disadvantage would be that it disables all gem-generating magic sites on that province. (Technology harming the spirits/nature and all that.) This way the player can choose between magic site or an expensive industrialization, thus giving an alternative to those with no gem-income.

Of course a typical dominions solution would be "got no gem on your lands? Just take your neighbors' !" But after spending so many turns site-searching everywhere and getting nothing, while your neighbor found several, he'd have an advantage over you.

Banishment scales extremely well, and if you have H/S mages (like Sceleria, for example), you can go for really easy-peasy skeleton removal that only requires communion master/slave spells.

>>165299037

So the slaves don't need to be holy then, do they? You just need the master to have holy level and you can cast superpowered banishment? And since its 0 fatigue, it should be slave-gentle?

Sorry, but you didn't disprove the win rate thesis, and greentexting everything will sure let you win all Internet fights.

Win rates are the objective measure of nation being low or high-tier. It doesn't matter if you consider MA Ermor weak when it wins whooping 25% of all games it's in.

Oh, and yeah, I miscounted. Sceleria has 12% more win rate than Jotunheim. Nerd.

>>165311479
Jotunheim has lower skill entry level so new players play it poorly and get dunked on
Sceleria gets skipped by new players

>>165311846
then I guess the nerfs to theordoros were justifed by illfraud, after all those 4 wins totally proved they were a high tier weapon that was just out of control right?

>>165311869
This is a reasonable assumption, but that alone won't explain a 12% disparity.

>>165311965
Stop strawmanning like a high-schooler. Therodos has a pretty average win rate, and we have 36 games with them in spreadsheet (we have around 60 with both Jotun and Sceleria). And don't expect Illfraud to EVER make any changes to nations based on objective factors. They nerfed Machaka, for fuck's sake.

>>165312169
Isn't Sceleria also less likely to provoke a gang-bang while being better at dealing with them if it does?

Am I arguing with Rejakor?

>>165312359
Maybe.

In 13 games at once? I doubt it.

>>165311869
How does Jotun have a lower skill entry level?
There's quite a lot of different options and magic paths to pursue, and some of the best strategies like werewolf communions batteries seem counter intuitive at first.
I feel like sceleria is also simple enough to play that even new players can play it well.

No one wants to attack it because it leaves them vulnerable to every other player in the game for no reward even when they do win.

Happy?

Disagree with this. MA Ermor is one of the better dueling nations too. It has specifically bad matchups, but it beats MA Pan most of the time too. Ermor has the tools needed to win games of every size.

>>165315076
Most nations do.

>>165315181
I just mean that Ermor is overall very strong.

>>165315181
Yeah but most nations don't have the best winrate of their age.

27 death gems a turn is nothing to turn your nose up at.

>MA ermor is one of the best dueling nations too

of course it is, all you have to do is take a tri bless and rush the enemy in the 1st year, as long as you took B9 no one really has answer to that
