Diplomacy edition

Dominions is a fantasy turn-based war game created by two dudes. One of them is a teacher.

The game combines a simple presentation with an extremely wide array of strategic options, including over 2800 units, 800 spells and 300 magic items. Turns are resolved simultaneously, with players planning battles rather than directly controlling them.

It has simplistic graphics but is easily moddable and extremely deep.

Basically, it's an autist’s wet dream of a war game.

Your best bet would probably be to get everyone to list the domg games which they know of, and compile that into a list yourself.

If you liked the original Homeworld 1 no, I hated it. They do alot of things differently because the new company shoved all the bullshit HW2 engine into the HW1 game. So you are limited to what you can salvage, so many fucking bug you won't believe this is the same game, the game is also dumbed down alot (10x less enemies compared to the original HW). Basically it's a bad game. If you liked HW1 just play HW1 or cataclysm.

So anyways I've never played demonologist, but it reminded me of the elemental casters that require fucking 50 gems to summon anything. They were too gold dependent.

They might seem that way at first but demons are really good. Hellhound for example come in a big pack, have like 50 health and can shoot big cones of fire as well as just biting shit.
>>
>>168742663
That actually sounds interesting.

>>168742771
How about a mechanic similar to CoE where you get a random spell for every time you invest your "currency", I guess in this case XP, into magical schools (conjur, evo etc). Or just get a random spell related to the school you already know every level. Or monsters/treasure drops spells.
>>
>>168742771
Items let you cast spells.

So pop back to your cap, buy a staff of skeleton horde, and you're good.
>>
Or how about research actually is a thing, but since you can't recruit mages to research for you, you need to spend precious turns researching.
>>
>>168743041
How early can you get them? The biggest factor in winning is to get resources as quickly as possible early game. growth in CoE is an exponential factor and the earlier you get resources the better. Cultists can summon VERY early and alot of troops that are competitive with 5iron troops from cities. mid/late game it's very easy to summon a lv2 mage + 20 troops with 2 (or was it 3) protection. I've been fighting Baron level AI and cultists have never lost me a game yet.

I don't think I've played more than a demo of the original game and I already own the remastered version. I'm just too lazy to start up any game.
Other games I should play:
Castlevania: Lord of Shadows
Darksiders II
Devil May Cry 3

Could also list loads of strategy games, but I'm kinda burnt out on those.

>>168743448
I haven't played in a while but since they are one of the better ones they might be a bit later. The standard early demons are still pretty good and have a lot of variety.

I figured it out!

You have the XP shape that gives better forms but items will act as your mutations. I can even randomize what these items do using that spell mod.

So your form 2 cave crab goes home and picks out a new armor. This new armor could cast fly, summon an ice elemental, make him ethereal, or whatever.

Supaya-spam being a noobtrap is actually the noobtrap.

Best blesses (imo):
B9W9, B9F9 and W9F9.
But the last one is really expensive and doesnt bring BV (this is good sometimes as you will be able to use evocations).

There is also B9F9W9, I'm probably trying that some time soon.

Not dumped, just gave her time. She was dumped by a ugly nerd (she is literally a commercial model for small brands and instashit I don't know how that happened) , hooked up with me but ended up falling in love with me. I saw she was still confused after only one month after the nerd and decided to give her some time to clear her ideas and decide what she wants. So... Should I focus of scales or blesses for my nites as MA mari?
>>
>>168762569
I wouldn't focus on a bless for knights. Either use flagellants with some mad bless or go for something like N9 for angels and try to survive with crossbows and fire evos until then.

You spelled 'elementals' wrong

The N9 angel bless makes knights better at expanding and lineholding too, but they're already decent at that without the bless too.

The reason there were so many assassins in that province in the first place was I was using them to keep Tisor's huge army of 150 insane sacreds and chariots locked down. He however managed to break through and bring 85 units with him and siege my fort.

Pretender for EA Ur?

Chasis:
Erfsnek is probably a good choice, but so goddamn boring.
One of the Annukai ones? Annukai of Love and War (no boot slot, but awe) and Annukai of the Morning Star both seem like nice picks and have midgame SC capabilities.
Order and growth seem like a must. Slot something like 2?

Paths:
Some sort of Earth Bless would be great since most of your mages are sacred. A4 for Winged Helmet -> Staff of Storms so your Gudus can T-Strike Spam? I mean you'll have lots of those because Earth Meld looks like your bread and butter early combat spell.

Scales:
Order 3, Growth 3 seems a must with how expensive everything is. Sloth 2 is probably tolerable (?) and Heat 3 for free points (?).

Share your wisdom Ur bros.
>>
>>168785367
If Earth Snake is boring why not an F dragon? It diversifies your paths and expands quite well.

Summod Ur has lots of elegists and it's special power really makes you want to have a combat pretender and use him aggressively.

>great awake expander

It's very expensive, though.

Awake earth snake is what I've seen Ur run before, but that means you end up doing basically nothing with your pretender after expansion ends.

How do you use the Salamanders of Abyssia? Do you just get them to hold a few turns on the flanks and behind your tougher troops and then unleash them to attack rear?
>>
>>168786690
What do I do with those paths though?
>>
>>168786927
I wasn't thinking of anything specifically, just increasing your diversity. Having a variety of paths is often helpful later on, since you never know when you might really need an option which is only found in a different path.

Blood you could empower people to build up a blood economy, and eventually aim for vampires, I guess? Going for soul contracts might also be an option, but that'd need high blood magic on your pretender, or high construction to forge blood boosters for him.

Fire is less useful. Flaming arrows might be handy for Ur's longbowmen. Lategame you can summon flame spirits and do useful fire magic with them in combat (e.g. fire storm, flame storm).
>>
>>168787524
>I wasn't thinking of anything specifically, just increasing your diversity. Having a variety of paths is often helpful later on, since you never know when you might really need an option which is only found in a different path.
Sure, but I have to decide on how much points I put into them.
>>
>>168787803
F3 for just flame spirits, F4 for the booster (plus fire kings, if you get there first), F5 to get access to the fire gemgen.

B3 if you don't care about soul contracts (or are willing to empower for them), B4 if you want soul contracts but not early, and B5 or B6 if you want soul contracts ASAP.

>Going for soul contracts might also be an option
No, it cannot. Ur has no native fire income and no recruitable blood mages. You can't mass soul contracts with just 1 (one) blood mage, who also happens to be your pretender and your only F sitesearcher. Stop theorycrafting and play the nation you're giving advice on instead.
>>
>>168789196
b-but look at all the path diversity
>>
>>168789196
Soul contracts take 4 fire gems with a hammer. You don't need an amazing fire income to forge them.

For blood, spend your first 100 slaves on a couple of scouts so you're not just using your pretender to bloodhunt.

Obviously this is going to be a lot slower than a nation like Abysia running soul contracts, but your only investment here is your pretender. This isn't your primary strategy, it's something useful for your pretender to do after expansion.

This is what I roll with. A4E4 is a great mage bless, and the A4 does really help with air boosters and T-strike spam. Order and growth are essential, since Ur's very money-hungry. Heat 3 is tolerable. Magic 3 is great since you have very spammable mage-priests that you'll have researching en-masse. A flying god that's able to cast storm, EQ, RoS, fog warriors, etc. is very handy.

bloodhunt with the cheapest blood dudes you have with sanguine dowsing rods, in provinces with 5-8k population. Have a lab in the province. Have a patroller in the province with either flying troops or low upkeep chaff like wolves. Call of the Wind is an ideal spell to summon patrollers. This will give you a pretty good blood economy if you have enough hunters in enough provinces, depending on what you want to do with it.

Mostly what this guy said >>168799846

There's one which is nonsense however.

That's five hundred gold. Don't spend five hundred gold per province. That's stupid. Buy a scout and have him run back and forth between hunting provinces and fort provinces with the collected slaves.

>>
>>168806304
It's more meta than that. I think the memers realize how cancerous and that is precisely why they are pushing it. It's a method of character assassination within the community. They try to associate certain Steam group players that don't namefag in the thread with cancerous namefaggotry and self-meming.

Anonymous players now hate them and won't associate with them in pbems. Meanwhile the (probably less known) Steam group players that are forcing this meme reap the benefits of having their rival's diplomatic capabilities neutered.

Memetic warfare and 5d chess at it's finest.

The issue is said players tend to move toward playing anon in games - its getting pretty common to be surprise malakal'd at this point.

Also, pretty sure Okofire had no diplomatic skills (or any other skills) to neuter.

How do Horror Marks actually work? A few of my mages got attacked by the enemy Pretender in a province, and got wiped out, but before they did so they spammed him with approximately 35 Horror Marks.

Is this a good result or a bad result, what will come of this?

Erf Snek with additional air may be expensive but memey.Can get you a minor A, and some A booster for your mages. Also trapeezing RoS snek sounds super fun.

I've also seen several players use Shedus where they expand just fine, then once they hit Alt 4 become crazy strong early midgame units with body ethereal, ironskin, and temper flesh. And add in some summon earth power with it's 3 encumbrance you can wreck armies that don't have magic weapons or strong mage support yet.
>>
>>168807596
I don't know if the specific mechanism has been revealed yet.

But its seems like as the game says the more you get horror marked the worse it is. From my experience horror assassins will eventually show up, and the more you beat the stronger they get until it start sending doom horrors like the eater of gods.
>>
>>168809225
So that pretender is probably pretty fucked?
>>
>>168796928
Not taking an awake pretender on Summod Ur sees like a huge waste. You may be able to expand decently with scales by foreign recruiting an ungodly amount of long bows, but scales and an A4 bless don't seem worth it. Those air boosters won't mean shit if you can't expand decently

>>168806867
i think its just a joke actually retard

>>168809502
Unless he is SC you better make some priests and get ready to call god. Not sure if horror marked goes away even with death.

Horror mark goes away WHILE dead, but not from dying. Immortal shit won't get rid of it. A mortal pretender you don't call god with can.

From /gsg/? The steamgroup here's considerably less cancerous, although it does have a few faggots. Nick's another diplomancer. Okofire is a fucking idiot.
>>
>>168811080
>getting this upset over people who are literally not mentioned unless someone is meming or doing diplomacy
okofire isn't even around anymore, malakal doesn't even go into the chat, and it practically keeps this general alive to have people meming about "people who play the game" if you want to call them that.
>>
>>168809754
Ur expansion is also kinda shit, right?
Their troops have shit defenses and big guys with single attacks means you won't kill troops fast enough before you eat lots of damage.

I'm more of a "build pretender fod mid/lategame" guy, so that makes it hard for it. Having a pretender that can SC and drop nice bufs sounds good if you don't have to worry about afflictions, recalling and pathloss, but I guess Awake Expander is still the superior option.

Three players with associated steamids. One is a solid admin who does lots of diplo, the other is an underage retard. The last is a good player who used to do a lot of diplo.
>Why is /domg/ associated with steamgroup faggotry?
It's not, really. It's associated with a steamgroup, but that's because of the nature of the game, and because members of the steamgroup started /domg/ way back when.
