DOMINIONS IS DEAD, LONG LIVE DOMINIONS edition
Previous Pantokrator >>146526389
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, don't link it in chat, see if WE care.It's cirno leaves after being proven wrong with stats hour, free drinks for all!
I've been masturbating too much, /domg/ and that's why i forgot to bump thread.
Please forgive me.
>>146605413
There are several D&D games running soon, -not- drinking heavily was never an option.
>>146603775
So are we just waiting for some of the existing games to be finished before we start up some new PBEMs, or have we hit a dead spot in the year?
>>146605838
SEVERAL DnD games? From wence came the others?
Also, it's the small things that I like:

>>146605971
Not that dude, but I have sat night D&D too. It's unrelated to Dominions tho
>>146606094
Oh right, thought there was more domg dnd.
>>146605970
I've been thinking about my own take on a memegame once my current games list gets some extra room.
How about 6 players on a 66 province map, 20 T1 thrones, 20 T2 thrones, 20 T3 thrones, Indy Difficulty: 9. Maybe even throw in a Starting Provinces: 2 or 3 to spice it up.
How terrible of an idea would this be? How about if I made a custom Oneage mod to get rid of the most powerful/popular nations so people had to go with other options?
>>146603775
YES to step on Snake
Also, need subs for Flatus Mictlan, Patala, and C'tis it seems. Come join me, Lambert, and whoever Xibalba is on our journey to the end of the world.
I, Lemuria, shall be you driver.
>>146607918
Awful
But all memegames are awful. If you run it, they will come.
>>146608094
Addendum: Run, don't join, this piece of shit game will soon die, and unless you want to spend 2+ hours per turn you'll run and never look back.
>>146607918
>How about 6 players on a 66 province map, 20 T1 thrones, 20 T2 thrones, 20 T3 thrones, Indy Difficulty: 9.
How about indy difficulty 0-2 instead? Thrones for everyone working as normal provinces.
>>146609105
That may actually be a better idea than the "aggressively fuck over the players" kinda thing I was thinking.
>>146607918
There are only 50 thrones max of which 5 are T3
>>146610453
So, we need to make MORE thrones first?
Along the border between earth and hell, may your kingdom prevail!
Remember the simpler days before Ragha and Xibalba when Illuminati and Iron Blizzard were the greatest threats to balance?
>>146611550
Illuminati were never the true threat. They were just believed to be.
Skelemans were always the Great Enemy
>>146612019
True, while the Illuminati rule above you, skeletons are always with you.
After playing CoE4 a bit I'm starting to want some of the mechanics from it in Dom4, like the different resource types and more mages that cast multiple spells at once
Both Dom4 and CoE4 could use a healthy dose of quality of life improvements in some areas though
>>146613089
Dominions 4 getting a way to have you spellcasters cast multiple spells in a turn (especially if it doesn't take up item slots), no matter how difficult, would radically transform the game because it would make supercasters (or one mage + supercombatant) viable.
>>146586213
>One of those attacks is a lance.
That's wrong. Eagle warriors just have a standard spear, not a light lance.
>>146613562
incorrect, check the dom4 inspector, they recently got a Bronze Lance. I thought you were right till I checked myself
>>146613667
Shit, that's actually a pretty important change. +4 damage on the first attack is a big deal with how numerous and expendable eagle warriors are. I'm surprised nobody mentioned it.
I suppose MA Mictlan needed a buff, but the issue was/is their mages not eagle warriors.
>>146613318
That's a change I can get behind given how mage pretenders have been left in the dust compared to other pretender choices.
Also, some way to diversify the endgame so that it isn't BLOODBLOODBLOOD
So what should you be aiming for in the end/late game? I feel like I shouldn't still be rolling with more magic and less armies but armies seem to still be the most effective way of demolishing enemy armies and PD.
>>146614427
*I should be
>>146614427
Important army buffs like army of lead/gold, fog warriors, antimagic, all that stuff
Access to as many schools of magic as possible, preferably blood in lategame since demons fuck over everything else and blood scales up better than gem based magic
Tarts with gift of health if you can get them, they're basically the best non blood summon
Having some mobile thugs for PD clearing or fast throne capping would also be ideal, but there's quite a lot of ways to do that easily
>>146614427
As many flying, stealthy thugs as the enemy has provinces and what this guys said >>146614829
Nexus + wishing for gems and SCs is also good
>>146614829
>>146615396
Okay great, this was kinda where I was headed anyways: making my armies stronger and making them out of stronger units. I was worried that there were some "kill the entire enemy army" spells that I was missing that would hard counter all my armies.
Post some memey thugs you can do at con 6.
Did you guys have any cool experiences with events besides "I got a few thousand gold, a fort, and a ring of wizardry at once."
>>146614221
Blood is OP. This is known.
So, in the event that a tiny neighbor and a neighbor even bigger than you both attack you, is there any reason to not just swiftly crush the smaller guy to fuel your war machine against the big guy?

So, you all know summod 0.60 is in the works, if anyone is feeling like helping there's over 11k lines to check for errors before release. I can't say this is fun, but it's necessary.
>>146616464
As Abysia, I suddenly had a Anathemant Dragon become an Annointed in a Volcano when the Unfrozen that appeared from the Enchanted Glacier attacked. He managed to beat them back.
>>146616210
I mean, there are a fair few 'kill the enemy army spells' - RoS is the famous one, but WoD is often better. Then there's the massive AoE evos, wrathful skies, firestorm, etc. Your ideal army can field all the ones that you can protect yourself against and then also field some sort of protection against that of the bad guys
>>146617718
I would help, but I'd rather watch anime
>>146616742
I would be worried about the bigger guy using the time you spend doing that to advance extremely rapidly using thugs/SCs against your weakly defended provinces. If the smaller guy is smart he'll turtle up as soon as you focus on him and make pushing into his lands take as long as possible.
There's also a diplomatic perspective to consider. Wiping out a small nation looks a lot less friendly than valiantly defending against a larger one, even if the small nation started the fight.
Ideally, I think I'd want to try make the smaller player back out of the fight. Make the war hurt for him but don't actively try to conquer his provinces. Just raid and/or cast cancer rituals all over them, and make sure he knows that the pain can stop as soon as he stops supporting the bigger player. That should be a lot cheaper than trying to kill him, and less likely to cause diplomatic problems.
At the same time try to make an alliance against the bigger player. Even if you think you can take him solo, more allies is always helpful and will take some of the pressure off you. Odds are his neighbors will take a slice if you beat him anyway, so you may as well try to get them to do some of the work.
Obviously all this will depend on what you've actually got available, what your two enemy nations have, and the diplomatic state of the game, but I hope I've made the reasoning clear.
>>146617718
As a doctrine, I generally focus firepower on my more vulnerable enemies first. I've won two games using this philosophy of growing larger to break a stalemate
>>146621414
I'm not sure how that works for error checking anon.
>>146610643
There's a great mod called Chocolate Thrones, it's in the OP pastebox
>>146607918
As soon as summod 060 is done and seems stable I'll be starting an all nation cross forum game using it.

Which nations can have the Volla pretender? I've been trying lots of different pretenders and I find the increased gem income is really useful. I checked the inspector but it just says that 'various nations' can have the Volla.

Dominions is by its nature a game of counters. The other thing you need to do is find counters to the counters. Thugs and SCs are the classic response to armywipes.

I was interested in dominions 4 for a while now and bought it now cause of 50% off but all the AI games i did by now were pretty easy, played as Ulm Ermor and those atztec guys and it basically faceroll all the time, am i missing something or shoulkd i go for harder difficulties?
>>146637998
Join PBEMs and enjoy the assrape.
I want my turns and I want my battle reports and I want my memes. Stop having lives and D&D sessions.
>>146637998
The AI is terrible, and the general advice around here is that playing against it will actively make you worse at the game because of the bad habits it teaches you.
Difficulty level just gives it more resources and gold, it doesn't make it more intelligent.
Just join online games.
>>146605783
Where are you?
>>146607918
it might be pretty hard to start; you might be forced to manually set provinces as possible capital start or throne start, otherwise the game might start with not enough capital starting point due to them being occupied by thrones and it might end up crashing.
test it several times ins ingle player first.
>>146616464
le epic turn 3 castle.
sickass priest assasin mage hero on turn 5 which i accidentally suicide due to failed expansion script.
few hundred gold in early turn which istantly got turned into elephants and conquered tons of provinces.
>game started! first turn attached
>starting provinces has like 6 connection 2 of which are hyperlinks to other parts of the map
is this supposed to be crazy good or bad? i don't have really good expansion unfortunately.
>>146641784
>i don't have really good expansion
You do nowDo you need expansion advice?
>>146641784
The more resource-intensive your expansion/cap-only troops the better it'll be for you, but I can't think of a situation where a large capcircle is not good.
>>146642332
>Do you need expansion advice?
always, but i don't wish to reveal my identity so i'd pass.
>>146642707
unfortunately some stuff in my capcircle is gonna be interesting for other players to grab and i am not fast enough to capture them all, also one of the capcircle province is screaming " PUT A CASTLE ON ME".
>>146642837
>i am not fast enough to capture them all
It is extremely rare for someone to not accept another player taking everything in their cap circle unless they are planning on killing them very soon or share a cap circle with them (in which case they are also planning on killing them very soon).
>>146642837
Every nation can expand acceptably with national troops. Many nations get better expansion with some blesses over others or benefit more from an awake expander to help get rolling more quickly, but -every- nation can expand well with a good start, and what you're describing is a GREAT start.
Any open MPs or can anybody tell me where's the best place for a newbie like me to find some ?
>>146642837
>I'm not fast enough to capture them all
Unless it's a throne or really nasty province (which other players aren't going to be able to easily take either), that means you're doing expansion horribly wrong.
You can't take 6 provinces in a year with an amazing start to help you out?
Also this >>146642917. You shouldn't assume your capcircle is inviolable, but most players will give you plenty of time to take it and will give it back if they accidentally move into it.
Holding onto another player's capcircle usually means you're soon going to be at war with them, because it's a very large risk for someone to let you keep it. UW-land borders are an exception, of course.
>also one of the capcircle province is screaming " PUT A CASTLE ON ME".
Not really a problem unless you have extremely resource-heavy cap-only units.
A fort adjacent to your capital reduces the resources your capital gets, but makes it much harder to safely siege.
>>146643628
You can't take 6 provinces in a year with an amazing start to help you out?
i can, although my armies need reinforcement often. but i also plan to reach chokepoints, get sweet farms , encircle provinces so i can take them later and having many provinces i have to get with high priority forces me to do some unhealthy choices.
i can totally see 2 provinces i absolutely need to put a fort on being so nicely positioned that i can't hope for them to be still free by turn 8. it's a bit awkward.
>>146643019
Try expanding as EA Kailasa or LA Mari
>>146644598
I've done Kailasa with an N9 monobless. It's honestly just gimped by the generals being StR, which summod fixes. In vanilla, I've had some success with expansion parties led using a yogi + an indy priest, but that requires setting up a temple within a turn of your cap and it's still hella awkward.
>>146644598
Also, I've never actually played LA Mari but don't you just do like scales MA TC and expand with an infantry line, and bows (well, crossbows in Mari's case) + an archer lure when appropriate?
>>146644267
I don't really think that's a good idea.
It sounds like you'll need to continually reinforce your expansion parties as they move towards the chokepoints, which means a lot of wasted turns just ferrying troops.
If you try to expand in a more circular pattern you can easily fold old expansion parties into new ones as needed, and quickly return any empty leaders back to the capital.
Of course, I've never liked going for chokepoints or trying to encircle territory. I feel it tends to bring a bit too much heat from other players when you block them from expansion, and there's a big risk that someone gets there first and screws up your expansion.
>>146644598
>EA Kailasa
I've tried it, it's not that awful. Falcion Yavana with a decent bless are very good against melee threats. Don't throw them at archers and you should have a decent time.
Now if only they weren't magic beings so I could lead them with indie commanders...
On the scales side, you have Bandar Warriors (which I haven't tried , but have been told they work great)
>>146645142
MA TC gets 9r pikes and 11r tower shields. Makes the frontline cost much fewer resources than the 20r pikes from LA Mari.
TC also gets composite bow troops (12r) which are better against most types of indies (in my opinion) than Mari's crossbow troops (10r).
I also think MA indies are generally easier than LA. Less heavy armor.
>>146645142
It's more the fact their starting army is garbage militia than that.
>>146645606
>I've tried it, it's not that awful. Falcion Yavana with a decent bless are very good against melee threats. Don't throw them at archers and you should have a decent time.
Yeah, that's what I did. I also typically had a few random crap units under the priest while the yogi led the sacreds. If no archers, the crap units sit in the back. If there are, they become an arrow screen / lure. Worked fine.
>MA TC gets 9r pikes and 11r tower shields. Makes the frontline cost much fewer resources than the 20r pikes from LA Mari.
>TC also gets composite bow troops (12r) which are better against most types of indies (in my opinion) than Mari's crossbow troops (10r).
>I also think MA indies are generally easier than LA. Less heavy armor.
Yeah, I can see how it would be worse and how they might really need a scales snake to help ensure that they get resources early. It just doesn't seem particularly complicated or tricky to expand with the way that Kailasa is (which, again, is actually pretty okay. It's just not at all intuitive to use a cheap mage + an indy priest).
>>146646183
>It just doesn't seem particularly complicated or tricky to expand with the way that Kailasa is
LA Marignon is tricky because their expansion is extremely bad.
Most nations can live with completely losing an expansion party or two stupidly and still get a decent expansion. (From my limited experience practicing with them) LA Marignon starts having trouble if you take significant losses at anytime during expansion, let alone actually losing a party.
To make up for it you need to know basically all the scripting tricks (arrow decoys, etc), need to know the details of indie provinces inside out (so you can make your troops get first hit in melee clashes) and need to know which provinces you can take with minimal losses.
By comparison Kailasa is dead easy. Once you know to avoid archers and use blessed Yanava it's about as complicated as other nations (even if it takes more gold and recruitment slots).
With LA Marignon you need to be getting the absolute most out of your troops in each fight and that means rescripting based on which province you'll move into next turn. Or you can take an earth snake, which most people do.

>>146648919
I know of a few games, but most are using unusual mods/settings. Vegetable Warriors 5 (modnations game, might not start due to lack of players), ChaosHander (itemunits game), MonsterMashMadness (I can't remember). Might have missed some.
I could just host a standard game with only worthy heroes. There seems to be interest.
EA would be my preference, but if people want MA or LA that's cool too.
>>146650572
I'd be in but desu i have no idea what worthy heroes etc means, just got the game yesterday but ai is really no challenge at all
>>146650572
sounds good
>>146651225
Heroes are random units who have a chance of appearing at your capital every turn. Each nation gets some, but a lot of the vanilla ones are shit.
Worthy heroes improves (and in a few cases, adds) heroes so that every nation has interesting heroes with actual uses.
It has little effect on gameplay and is generally regarded as a straight improvement over vanilla.
>>146651334
>>146651225
So no preference on age?
I'll make it soon then, need to decide what map to use.

Some are a bit OP against the player given certain situations. Or conversely too rewarding.

>>146668436
Caelum doesn't really need anything aside from good scales and a pretender that can summon the national summons (since they give you complete diversity anyway).
I believe you can get away with just DF as a minimum since there's a DF summon with S3 on it, but that might take a lot of summoning or an empower to progress to S5.
>>146668436
Only need scales and DF. Yatas can be S3, can craft a hat, and can summon Celestial Yazads, one of which is S4, another has ES and can craft a coin to boost your S3 to S5.
If you really really wanna bless, there are probably worse things than a D9f4 demilich.

technically there is a pirated outdated version, but if you wanna try what the game looks like you can download the demo of dominion 3. dominion 4 is just a good upgrade to it( i think the demo also has far less nations and content) but the concept is the same.
http://www.illwinter.com/dom3/
if you wanna play multiplayer, which is the real deal with dominions, you are forced to buy ( or do an hotseat with the demo). we had few months were the pirate version was up to date and up to one player /game could have been a pirate, but Illwinter DRM tactics are doing a good work.

Admin, can we unstart for a second before any players have made their turns? I wanted to send a different pretender.
So, might I ask why we're stuck using a hilariously outdated version of worthy heroes?
aight where's the original peham?

It's down to 9 players from 13, I don't know how it's going now since I got knocked out myself, but I'm guessing Mictlan will win, last I saw they had the most land by far.
There's another one starting too, though.

It was Lambert's idea.
>>146684081
They got geomancers
>>146684345
We know their tools and they offer no new mechanics.
Its coastal mages are decent but expensive. Unlike EA Marverni, they don't have 45g s1 mages to support the druids or boars to make a free sacred front line. Their cap stuff is great, but big air is better when you have other air mages too. I can see them being good when they get fog warriors and stuff up to work with their earth/astral land stuff, but that's relatively late for a nation that has mediocre research.
>>146684543
What did he do?
>>146685467
Hail Mary'd his pretender onto Mictlan's capital
>>146684825
Geomancers are 65 gold.
Druids are 165 gold.
Still, those guys + caponly A4 make a pretty decent combination. Above water they are definitely one of the better water nations in the game. That's still not much.
>>146685467
Teleported his oracle pretender onto mictlan's capital in the desperate hope that the mictlan player hadn't blood sacrificed at all in the last 40 turns
Went about as well as you could expect

I have come here, to this thread, for the first time in three months, to bring you this message:
Heard you were talking shit.
I haven't joined or started a game in the past several months, nor am I admining whatever the hell game that is.
I'm not even the guy who complains that worthy heroes doesn't do its original purpose. I'm the guy that complains that worthy heroes is a pointless mod with no game impact that everyone insists we use because of random pointless reasons.
>>146686615
>worthy heroes is a pointless mod with no game impact that everyone insists we use because of random pointless reasons
this desu
>worthy heroes is a pointless mod with no game impact
But that's why it's used to begin with.

Good luck gents and all that. 48 hour turnaround time limit, this will not change, ever. Stale three times in a row and you're AI'ed. Trades of items and gems are binding once agreed.
I just wanted to say that the badmin for Late_to_the_party is a nigger.

>>146689141
Why?
>>146689447
I was in the middle of a fight with Bogarus and I had to leave for the weekend so I asked for an extension in all my games. I just got back and I got an extension in every game, but was greeted by three stales in LttP.
I'm salty as fuck that I didn't get the opportunity to shit on Bogarus some more due to the admin being a dick.
Oh well. Enjoy your free capital, Bogarus.

Now marignon is threatening to quit and claiming that it's my fault for failing to extend the game. I gave him a 96 hour extension that covered the asked-for period. Fuck him.
>>146690801
It seems like dom4mods meta discourages AI'ing, but at least the fucking AI would summon a fire elemental. Nothing like 180g mages at 150 fatigue from casting Flare into a giant undead blob.
>>146691243
>Casting flare into undead
For what purpose? Even indie priest blobs are more effective.
Lemuria? what is a lemuria?
Thank you ATLANTIS, you matyr'd yourself so that our sides may live in harmony and contentment
Moat, can you confirm that Snow still increases fire mage fatigue as rain does?
>>146691754
send gold to Atlantis, friends.
>>146691825
It cost 64 fatigue to cast Flare (a 50 fatigue spell) while snowing, they're encumbrance 4, so I don't know what can account for that 10 fatigue other than snow.
>>146693139
So it still increases the fatigue cost, but by less. Thanks. And this was an F3 mage casting it, right?
>>146693139
No Drain scales?
>>146693139
I have no idea what you are doing but phoenix power (24 fatigue) + flare (54 fatigue) on Witchunters is 78 fatigue.

>A tip for CoE4 is telling people to play dominions 4
I still don't really get this game. It takes forever to get anywhere or do anything and it doesn't seem as though there's many ways for player skill to express itself, which is completely unlike dom4.
>>146695825
Crone is a girl. Give her a level or two of nature and you won't have any old age problems.
>>146695776
2650 hours, most of which is just leaving the game up in the background.
More relevant statistic would be 7 completed games - and about 3 games that are dragging on for-ever.

Newbie games are a meme anyway.
I never had any of this newbie game nonsense. I joined games and got absolutely dunked on, repeatedly, before I learned how to actually perform.
>>146696205
Eh, I don't think it's shit, some of the classes are cool, but it seems like an unfinished game in a lot of ways, like in the aspects that make the game less tedious and annoying to play.
>>146696640
Or, more accurately, it's a kind of shitty HoMM style game with an Illwinter skin that's missing a lot of stuff that's in HoMM and makes the game interesting outside of mushing armies together and collecting resources to summon more stuff to mush together.

Go to /v/anheim chat
I want to start Formoria.
Is the hooded teleporting pretender with 4W 4N 4E scales: 30 1P 3G dormant dominion 6 a decent pretender build? The bless seems alright for the sacred umarked and giants and it also helps them expand into those paths (earth water nature) that they aren't very strong in.
Criticism?
