Previous election 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.

That's what's scary about him. If Shillary becomes president, she's probably going to die/step down because of her health soon after and he'll become the president.
Kayden Hill
Why is everyone so hung up over this "Shillary" thing?
Of course she's dishonest. She's a politician.
Eli Watson
People love shitty puns.
Caleb Wood
I'm more curious about how the best democrats could come up with is "Drumpf", as in dump Trump. Meanwhile Hillary transitions beautifully into Crooked Wicked Witch Hillary and Shillary.
Levi Torres
>"Drumpf", as in dump Trump I think that's actually his family surname before they changed it after immigrating from Germany.
Tyler Garcia
Trump has been more convincingly demonised as a person, however. You don't need to come up with names if Trump is itself a dirty word.
Zachary Clark

Leo Miller
To be fair, he's done a lot of that to himself.
Jacob Cruz
I've done medieval full contact fighting against both the lean muscular types and the goddamn giant bear types. The big guys are always more dangerous unless they are completely new to the arts. There just isn't any counter to 300+ lbs bodymass tackling you.
Jordan Carter
Though the reverse applies: Hillary does not stand FOR much, either "good" or "bad". Yes, to an extent it's a strength.
Ayden Lewis
Is your knowledge helping you win games?
Jose Murphy
Well, yeah. It's easier to fabricate on the fly than it is to refute. Pretty standard demagogery.
Grayson Stewart
Hillary makes other politicians look like honest men.
Jaxson Bailey
Well it transitions directly to the fact that trampling units are very powerful and the means to stop them or kill them from afar are important. This has, however, only been of real use during a meme game where one of the opponents had a nation with almost nothing but elephants on it's roster.
Justin Jackson
In tackling, yes, there is an advantage. It's fairly negligible though, because tackling is uncommon, and large size is itself a disadvantage when you're waving sharp pointy things about. And that all depends on skill, not strength or size.
Though having a good layer of biological padding is not a bad thing.
Logan Cruz
But she doesn't.
Luis Baker
What are you doing, Sauro? Stop attacking Abysia.
Ayden Jones
>sharp pointy things I was talking about the kind of medieval fighting where we have armor. The sharpness point is kind of moot unless you have access to those Jomon curved swords capable of cutting steel plate. Subduing someone to give the killing blow with a dagger or bashing their head in with a mace is the way to go.
Camden Flores
As an outside observer, I am still legitimately amazed by this meme.
Hilary lies? Yeah, pretty much. At about the standard rate for most politicians. No surprises there. She's very much a Standard Politician.
On the other hand, a MAJORITY of Trump statements are untrue. That's something we haven't seen in a politician since the thirties.
Carter Martin
You've still got pollaxes and maces, and zwiehanders are also pretty useful. But with longsword &c. I admit grappling is going to become a lot more common.

Jaxon Jones
When fighting other opponents, especially in armour, it can quite often come down to wrestling, often using the weapon as a tool for that rather than striking. This goes for all weapons, but it goes double for armoured fighting when you have a sword or other cutting weapon (which is mostly useless against plate).

Jonathan Johnson
I doubt he's consciously biased. He's probably basing his information on politifact, which is itself biased in Hillary's favour.
But it's true that Hillary is not unusual.
Charles Peterson
Yeah, I was thinking of unarmoured duelling when I said that.
Robert Rodriguez
This is true, if you go by facts then you're going to be giving pretty much every point to Clinton. You need to understand truthiness.
Ayden Garcia
No, that site is legitimately biased towards Clinton.
Facts aren't actually important in politics. Whether a politician's lying or telling the truth, they're only furthering their agenda. Distinguishing between true and false is pointless. Politics is about interpreting facts, not gathering them.
David Thomas
Exactly what I said. You can't go by facts because if you go by facts, you'd be giving it to Shillary. Don't let her 'facts' and 'figures' trick you into thinking that having a basis in reality is actually important. Only Trump can lead us to a better future.
Elijah James
Can you cocksuckers please go back to /pol/?
Hunter Hernandez
Hillary has been in the public eye for 30 years. You can support almost any assertion with the evidence that generates. So shes been accused of various flavors of dishonesty for that period, and has made some untrue statements, so even there isn't an unusual amount of lying over that period, the charges stick.
Ian King
Hilarious.
Everything has a basis in reality. That's the point. Hillary and Trump tell the truth only when it benefits them, and only with a beneficial interpretation. They lie when it benefits them, and only with a beneficial interpretation. The politics they are founded on itself attempts to use all facts it can, and interprets it as it thinks is most valid.
For example, a Stormie sees high Black crime as indicative of genetic inferiority, while a liberal sees it as indicative of poor social conditions. And a socialist doesn't care, because they know it's all about capital. &c. No.

Carter Sullivan
Newfag here to Save The Thread: is there an equipment list in the manual or something? I'm trying to figure out the actual damage value of units.
Xavier Watson
Use dom inspector, it has armor and weapon tabs. Also keep in mind that most weapons don't include strength bonuses from unit stats. So if you see a spear with no listed damage, it just means it will do =strength amount of damage.
Benjamin Roberts
Look, i'm a Trump supporter. I want him to Make America Great Again. It's not my problem if you can't accept that his lies are what make him strong. Hillary feels like she has to tell the truth, and uses it as a weapon. Trump knows that the truth is just a shackle, that you have to break those shackles to become truly free.
Andrew Nelson
There is no denying that Clinton lies sometimes. The difference is that she's familiar enough with the truth to use it or to craft lies around it. Trump literally is not, and, consequently, lies in an especially blatant and frequent manner.
James Hughes
>So if you see a spear with no listed damage, it just means it will do =strength amount of damage. Do you mean it adds on the unit's base strength (ex. 10 str unit does 20 dmg) or that it doesn't add anything at all (ex. 10 str unit does 10 dmg with a spear's reach)?
Colton Ortiz
the latter
Jayden Rodriguez
The latter.
For example, this regular sword will do 16 damage when used by a basic infantry, and 26 if used by a giant with 20 strength.
Also, read the manual about damage types. Slashing/Bludgeoning/Piercing all have different bonus effects.
Adam Parker
Why are americans so obsessed with politics to the point where they have to inject it into everything?
Ryder Gutierrez
Have you seen a single piece of American media created in the past year that wasn't politically charged? It'd be quite an impressive achievement if an American were able to focus on anything else considering how hard they're bombarded with this madness.
Also shitposting about how Clinton is anything but pure, concentrated, neo-conservative malice is an easy way to farm (you)s.

My conflict with Sauro started when his dumb ass attacked two of my provinces from his throne in a very telegraphed attack. He has continued to foray into my provinces as recently as three turns ago. My taking that throne last turn was the first time I'd taken any provinces from Sauro that did not previously belong to me.

>Jomon curved sword
That’s it. I’m sick of all this “Jomon curved sword” bullshit that’s going on in the dominions crunch right now. Katanas deserve much better than that. Much, much better than that.
I should know what I’m talking about. I myself commissioned a genuine katana in Japan for 2,400,000 Yen (that’s about $20,000) and have been practicing with it for almost 2 years now. I can even cut slabs of solid steel with my katana. Japanese smiths spend years working on a single katana and fold it up to a million times to produce the finest blades known to mankind. Katanas are thrice as sharp as European swords and thrice as hard for that matter too. Anything a longsword can cut through, a katana can cut through better. I’m pretty sure a katana could easily bisect a knight wearing full plate with a simple vertical slash.
Ever wonder why medieval Europe never bothered conquering Japan? That’s right, they were too scared to fight the disciplined Samurai and their katanas of destruction. Even in World War II, American soldiers targeted the men with the katanas first because their killing power was feared and respected. So what am I saying? Katanas are simply the best sword that the world has ever seen, and thus, require better stats in the dominions system. Here is the stat block I propose for Katanas:
Now that seems a lot more representative of the cutting power of Katanas in real life, don’t you think? tl;dr = Katanas need to do more damage in Dominions 4, see my new stat block.

Going to need a better map-link. The steamthread you link only has a .map file, but not a .tga file. You should just zip the two and upload them to mega instead.
