Previous Pokeman 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.

I posted this as shitty bait last thread, but why would you transform your pretender? What situations make that useful?
Daniel Wood
>tfw took me until turn 20 to realize I could simply send an assassin to cap waterplane provinces instead of fighting 3 wyrms
Man I feel dumb.
Levi Richardson
If you have an immobile, he might be more useful if he can move.
Liam Morales
Because this shitty game doesn't have a spell to make my Tree grow legs to go over there and whack you.
Wyatt Martin
Okay Atlantis you better move your troops because 124 is in my cap circle.
Easton Ward
I'm an idiot
It actually did not occur to me that you could use it to make immobiles move
Josiah Green
I said REMOVE ATLANTIS. I warned you about stairs, bro. UWBOWL HYPE!
Benjamin Murphy
Just buy Item Pack 2 DLC. Copper Legs are very useful.
Ian Harris
>second pair of boots can be equipped Not their best idea.
Camden Fisher
I hope hes not a retard and realizes that ghost removal is a worthy cause and hes making more enemies and his only "ally" will be a nerd with 12 ghosts and his cap province 12 turns in
Jaxon Martin
Keep in mind your Immobile has to not be lifeless. Lifeless can not transform
Charles Bennett
If ASSDOD stales again he's going AI.
Brandon Johnson
I head you were talking shit, like I wouldn't find out.
Matthew Robinson
I'm not even sure why people associate the blood plane with blood nations. 95% of blood sites that spawn in there are Arenas and the provinces have such high population that they're incredibly inefficient to bloodhunt.
I still want to be able to give my mounted mages boots.
Justin Butler
>and the provinces have such high population that they're incredibly inefficient to bloodhunt.
Just jumping in here to ask, isn't high population GREAT for bloodhunting?
Juan Jones
You don't get any extra blood slaves over 7000 pop and you lose a proportional amount of gold based on the unrest you cause, even if you patrol it down that turn. A blood slave costs more gold at 20,000 than it does at 7000.
Thomas Russell
Do any items grant awe? I tried checking the inspector but I couldn't find a way to search for effects
Anthony Moore
You can find most of the tags by looking in the mod manual or just looking up examples.
Robert Bennett
Which pretender wud u main in a fighting game?
Jayden Perez
Monolith.
Benjamin Williams
Monolith, desu. Or blood fountain.
Chase Turner
Lord of the Forest with S1
Joshua Jackson
Whoever plays like Suwako in Hisoutensoku or Arakune from Blazblue Who would be the Dan Hibiki of Dominions?

LA Pythium.

Hudson Robinson
I extended this turn 24 hours for whoever needed it.
Austin Davis
Can I have 2 more hours in Kingofbullies? Time schedule and so and so. Dont to stale if i oversleep.
Zachary Hall
Does shademail haubergon add stealth or only improve it
Levi Cook
It's the only item besides amulet of the doppelganger that adds stealth to a non-stealthy unit.
>not maining yuyu if your gonna tier whore, just tier whore right

What's the requirements to use a unit as an assassin? Just stealth?
Ryder Morris
I didn't know /domg/ was irish.
William Rodriguez
user casts Ritual of Rebirth.
Jackson Bailey

Jack Russell
An assassin needs both stealth and the assassin trait.
You can also use seduction as a ghetto assassination, because a failed seduction attempt sometimes results in an assassination attempt.
Daniel Fisher
Ded thred.

Fine, fuck diplo right? Atlantis are just dumm frogs and need to be gassed anyways
Nolan Bell
Is Asspoodle actually an amazing disciple? Without their popkill Dom don't they become Pan but with death magic?
Lucas Ortiz
Don't forget the reanimating unique summons
Jonathan Lopez
Pan with 15k pop in their cap instead of 30k, Pan without 3000 crazy sluts, Pan without blood, and Pan without EQ spammers. So yea its totally the same as pan, if by pan you mean centaurs that are good with a W bless
Thomas Johnson
Yes, but you still want them to have at least W9 for those black centaurs. Magic scales would be fantastic on them as well, owing to their lack of good lab rats.
Jackson Price
They lack the best unit, the Reveler (which reduces the value of nature buffs). Nature isn't a good crosspath for death and Panic Apostates are very price-y for D2s (compare Panic Apostates to a mage like Marshmaster, they're strictly inferior their durability aside). I think Earth is a generally more desirable path than Death (especially if you have troops that synergize well with buffs) and Pangaea also has a degree of blood access for endgame. Asphodel doesn't have seducer-assassins
Asphodel disciple is fine, arguably better than Asphodel with popkill and freespawn (since you can still reanimate lots of freespawn carrion with priests), but I'd say it's a good bit weaker than MA Pangaea (unless you want death access for your team or something).
Connor Gutierrez
Don't forget they also miss out on Dryad Seducers/ass-ass-ins and (for whatever its worth) the "song-spells"
They do gain skelespammers, holy 3 priest summons and reanimators with national divine undead buffs.
Adrian Howard

Thomas Phillips
My island bats, like hell I'm gonna give a blood nation a 10K pop island
Hudson Baker
Dedest.
To keep the thread alive, a question regarding LA Ulm. How many of their S2s in communion do you need for a master enslave communion?
Ian Hall
Just let it die, this game is shit anyways.
Evan Gomez
With an S2 Master: 64 Slaves with no booster 32 Slaves with one booster (Skullcap) 16 Slaves with two boosters (Coin) 8 Slaves with two boosters + Light of the Northern Star 4 Slaves with two boosters + Light of the Northern Star/Banner of the Northen Star + Power of the Spheres/Crystal Shield 2 Slaves with three boosters (Cap, Coin, Ring) + Light of the Northern Star/Banner of the Northern Star + Power of the Spheres/Crystal Shield Out of the box with with four boosters (Cap, Coin, Ring, artifact) + Light of the Northern Star/Banner of the Northen Star + Power of the Spheres/Crystal Shield
Imagine that extra magic levels reduce the number of gems required to cast spells, rather than reducing fatigue.
A spell which costs no gems to cast has the usual fatigue reduction.
What spells are really good now?
Joshua Rogers

David Gomez
To keep the thread alive here's some creativity exercises.
How would you make a game based on the Dominions universe for the following genres: -Horror -First Person game -Action Third Person game -MMO
Matthew Anderson
>horror It's a survival game where you're a peasant trying to survive in the middle of the war, trying not to get eaten by jews and hiding from all the horrifying globals.
Kayden Torres
>Horror Caves of Xibalba. Shitty indie walking simulator game with a ton of jump scares.
>First Person. A world where Ermor/Lemuria wins. All cancerous globals are in place, and you are the last living priest of your pretender who must carry the flame of your faith in dark times. Something like Dark Souls gameplay would suit perfectly, but in first person for more immersion.
>Action Third Person Pretender Onslaught Ultra X, an arcade/fighting game with a shitton of available pretenders. Seruously, Blood Fountain's zoning is fucking unbearable, and Kraken's normals should deal 20% at most. Illfraaaaaaaauud!
>MMO Taint and Trade. Basically, Illwinter's first idea of CoE. You're a trader who travels the world buying and selling shit, encountering monsters and other characters. Tactical battles, persistent world, PvP, PvE, and global events like Horror attacks.
Leo Ortiz
Best unit to make an assassin that is not one to start with
Matthew Collins
>Action Third Person It's like Dynasty Warriors but you play as Forester Bob cutting down hordes of sacreds.
Xavier Phillips
What nation? Vanjarls worked for me.
Adrian Robinson
Eater of the Dead. The Black Heart still works if stealth is given to the unit by items, right?
Chase Butler
I'd play the fuck out of that.
Lucas Harris
>-Horror Try to survive as a regular peasant in LA Ulm while LA R'lyeh is invading them.
>-First Person game Basically just Dark Messiah, except in the Dominions world.
>-Action Third Person game Dork Souls, set in MA Ermor.
>-MMO The life of Bogus. Everyone is an indie adventurer and messes with pretenders by freeing their slaves and raiding their provinces. When you level up enough the pretenders start to notice your bullshit and start sending armies, thugs and SCs after you.
Noah Turner
>A world where Ermor/Lemuria wins. All cancerous globals are in place, and you are the last living priest of your pretender who must carry the flame of your faith in dark times. Something like Dark Souls gameplay would suit perfectly, but in first person for more immersion.
Your pretender had F9N9 bless and you have recuperation, so you're among the only ones who can regenerate his wounds and old age while fighting off ethereal undead. Ending consists of your waifu/best friend using her/his lifeforce to overcast Purgatory and replace Utterdark. Sequel deals with awakening of blood magic.
Dominic Sanders
I'm throwing money into the screen already.
Anthony Gutierrez
>tfw Carmack will never remake Quake the way it was meant to be
Jaxson Murphy
>Ending consists of your waifu/best friend using her/his lifeforce to overcast Purgatory and replace Utterdark
>"Why is there so many fire gems here?" >"Legends say that this vault belonged to an ancient god named Okofire. He didn't know how to craft lightless lanterns and died in the second year of the Ascension Wars."
Cameron Miller
>horror You are a researcher in a magical lab. Your mission is to forge a magic item for your god. You have to find all the ingredients first. The only help you get magical lamp and friendly imp companion.
>First person Call of Duty: Forester Warfare - You are a lone Forester caught behind enemy lines in the middle of an ascension war. QTE ambidextrous dagger executions.
>Third person action Blood Hunt simulator. Chase around peasant girls a geriatric old wizard.
MythologicalMiscegnation, a small-ish LA game, is still recruiting. 4 out of 6 slots have been filled.
Also I just realized I forgot to draw Abysiaball's tears. Or steam puffs, since tears would just evaporate instantly. Oh well, it still works.

You have 5 seconds to name a single reason why you're not playing sneks in spess right now.
Michael Moore
snek a shit
Carson Morales
Say it to my fleet and not online, and see what happens, fgt.
Julian Turner
What game?
Angel Rodriguez
Because the game is unfinished and unpolished, has a crappy UI, and doesn't do anything especially good or even interesting to make up for it.
Maybe if it get finished properly it'll be worth playing.
Noah Powell
Stars in Shadow.
It's still better than Stellaris.
Angel Cook
I dunno about that. Stellaris at least had a few interesting ideas, even if the game itself ended up being boring as shit.
SiS doesn't really have any ideas of its own. It's just copying parts better games and doesn't even have the decency to do it well. It might still end up a good game eventually, but right now it doesn't have anything to make up for the fact that it's extremely bland and awkward.
Brayden Carter
We're full.
