/domg/ - Dominions General
Big rock 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.

Previous Pantokrator

You fucked up, OP.

...

In what way?

Link to the previous thread, fool.

Oh yeah

Looking to be a complete fag and engage in diplomacy. Roleplaying allowed

The magic ends here

Nothing wrong with roleplay, speaking of. How is life on the south side of the sea?

Life is good, our totally unique strategy that will wow you is already taking the indies by storm. Of my three biggest flanks, on two of them I've already run into the lackeys of false pretenders. The third gaggle of heretics I run into is in for a bad time unless something special happens.

I hope that is a guy and that there's porn of him

Who is the best pretender god and why is it the Raven of the Underworld?
You are a huge-ass talking, corpse-eating, future-predicting raven who is trying to conquer the universe one corpse at a time, and that HP game ridiculous.

And now for the news from "MyLifeIsFallingApart".

Nothing happened this turn.

Just kidding, almost nothing. Fomoria has been sighted showing off its shiny new "Fog Warriors" spell. A bunch of Fomorian kings marched to a heavily defended throne with only a bunch of Longdead Horsemen, but thanks to this game-changing spell, along with the "darkness" battlefield enchantment, the indie force has been defeated with relatively low losses. Expect a throne claimage announcement within next few turns.

In other news:
>Tension between Agartha and Pangaea
Agartha has been sighted taking over Pangaea's provinces in the area near Mictlan's capital. While no major battles have been fought yet, our reporters will keep a close eye on the area in case this conflict enters an actual hot state.

>Lanka takes a throne province
Continuing to prove how much not dead it is, Lanka has taken a throne province next to its cap, only losing a bunch of undead monkeys.

>Mictlan is finally dead dead.
While we have already announced its death numerous times, this one is final. snek eater the pretender of Mictlan is completely destroyed.

Were you born with bad taste or did it develop with time?

It was made on the rinmaru character creator webpage and it's supposed to look like me

Why do you look like a faggot?

Here he goes again, the normie, inferior version of the based Raven.
Has your HP bar always been that small? Or was it a bad event? (which never happens with the based raven by the way)

who do you bet on in Agartha vs Pan war?

L O N D O N (and real pic)

It's hard not too on rinmaru.

Nah

Let us compare the two
>Black bird gets febbleminded and is useless
>Majestic Solar Eagle gets febbleminded and shrugs it off.
Also Solar eagle has more HP

>when perpetual storm is cast but you're storm immune

>Also Solar eagle has more HP
Corpse Eater gives the raven more HP based on on the number of corpses.

Can I have a 12 hour extension? College internet has been down all yesterday and today.

Sure, postponed.

And here I was thinking you were implementing stall based strats.

Sounds more situations then anything, and the Solar bird still has more HP without needing to eat the dead.

free awe is also good, lets you go solo some weak indies

How do I pop glamour as Mictlan? Mass slingers didn't do it.

Fire imps if early. Almost fucking everything later on.

Which game?

EarlyVanilla

Just put the file on your phone and then email it from your phone my dude

This is how we fix giant nations. Make this apply if the attacker is larger than the target.

or just give giants all AOE attacks

Fuck you man, I didnt even want to be in this game.

That would be too much, obviously.

Then why did you join, you knew it was going to be shit

I asked for my pretender to be deleted multiple times.

I could sub for ya, how does one sub?

Well now I have invested too much time into it to sub. Also the real reason I didnt do my turn was because I was asleep.

I knew that would happen, but those free forts sure were a good incentive. Sorry, Sauro, nothing personal.

Wait whats going on

Why don't all pretenders have recuperation

Why would all pretenders have recuperation

There's a mod that does that. Also makes them not lose magic paths on death.

because its kinda shitty when your pretender is suddenly fucking useless?

Dont send your pretender on the field if you dont want to take that risk.

It would be nice if there were a spell that was like a more limited gift of heatlh.

Enchantment 5, 15 nature gems, heal 3 random afflictions in a province. Something like that.

Sure, no hard feelings. I'll get to take your stuff instead, so I have no reason to complain.

You're welcome to try. So far you have taken -1 fort and -6 provinces.

Pack it up boys, we fucked up, war is over we're all going home now. Just in time for Elfmas

Sauro is dying.

Is it blissful?

Dont think I dont see you building that fort, that throne belongs to me you know. I took it first before you came in and stole it from me.

What summons have the assassin ability?

Succubus has dream assassin or something right?.

I think she has seduction

...

It's not my fault you tried to take my throne on the same turn my army showed up. And I have a right to defend what's mine so don't you complain about the fort.

LA game, anyone?

How about AoE, defense negates?

>map shows indie province free from enemy units
>SURPRISE ITS NOT FREE, ITS IN FACT A TON OF UNITS

I didnt try to take the throne, I did take the throne. I drove of the independents when you invaded. I hold rightful claim over it.

just another newbie getting Bolivar'd

Do you really want to go to war against a nation with 2 capitals?

MiddleAgeMash has 7/8 players
I will start it, if an 8th hasn't presented himself, right before I go to sleep so that I can send in a turn
That will probably be around midnight eastern, or three hours from now. I won't change the map with 7
Tell me if you want to play but need more time to make your pretender

Might makes right. If you want the throne you'll have to take it by force.

Yes

Hope you realize that S1 mages are not that great against a nation with no astral.

Oh? Who did you happen to run into? I'm sure you and I can be great friends. I mean you hate magic, I hate things that aren't dead our friendship was meant to be.

I really hope you aren't red colorblind so you can see the five thousand hours of microsoft painting I did there.

way too much rng in this "esport"

Assuming you dont use any of that for troops you could make 5 forts with that kinda gold

Congrats to Elludia for doubleturning! Good job everyone but Sawaiki, Smerv, Avernum, and Doom for getting their turn in so soon. I believe in you four!

Mountains out of molehills, my dude.

Need a sub or someone to set a nation AI.

Last call for a sub for LA C'tis in an RP game.

N9B9, decent position, may still hold Utgard's cap, UW foothold, probably going to feed Xibalba or Pangaea if they go AI.

Wait, shit, never mind. New turn just came in, he AI'd himself.

[Faint reeeeeee in the distance]

Stellar cascades and mass body ethereal spam is still top tier. I hate fighting into astral nations.

how do you lose a game if you collect 4k+ gold on turn 10

People team up against the stronger power

you wish

I am willing to buy a blood stone if anyone is able to forge one.

Can someone post their diseased commanders for my collection?

don't have any ;)

t. pan

? how would you know that the guy has a free 4k+ gold?

By the guy saying he has 4k+ gold, or by all the forts and units that they have.

Just a reminder the new turn is in.

And now the new MArvelous turn is in good job pythium.

I'm touched by the fact that you went into MS paint to make this. Surely nothing could go wrong from an Ulm-Ermor alliance, you guys used to be human so there's some common ground.

steamcommunity.com/id/falseattendant

Hey Pan, think you can talk shit like that you fucking vulturing faggot? Take one quick look at the RP and Army size, you're a pathetic little anemic shit stain of a nation. And here I was being graceful and leaving you with a few of mictlan's lands. You will wish you stuck with your pathetic little collusion of You and Ur against Fomoria
