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.

This mod is pretty much perfect, I always wanted to bring enlightenment to savages with ten Artillery pieces and about 200+ riflemen

We need a total conversion mod for XVIII century warfare line infantry warfare.
Kayden White
I just realized Jomon went AI. What a disappointing turn of events, though understandable.
William Collins
Why don't people do this
Joseph Turner
Because it costs 200 gems
Camden Foster
free gold what else am I gonna make with that earth gem lol
Nolan Scott

Jacob Perez
Summons????
Jaxon Cooper
Boots. Helms. Armor. Gatecleavers. Earth Kings. Empowering. Earth Elementals. Or even 100 astral pearls.
Brandon Martinez
Dwarven Hammers. Earthquakes. Rain of Stones. Maws of the earth. Fall Bears.
Earth gem alchemy is wasteful. If you really need money so badly distill gold from fire gems.
Aiden Kelly
>Unironically responding to bait this obvious
Gavin Butler
Dwarven Hammers. Armor of Knights. Blacksteel stuff. Gatecleavers. Girdles of Might. Stone Birds. Earth Boots. Boots of Stone. Stars of Heroes. Some of the best artifacts in the game. And that's not even getting into the summons like Earth Kings, Fall Bears, and Living Statues, or crosspath stuff.
Anthony Reed
>I was merely pretending! 'no'
Adrian Hill
You can only use so many dwarven hammers as you have stuff worth producing. You need to have hero's to put these items on, girdles on all your mages? seems pretty memey Stone Birbs is air + earth, don't always have extra air These summons are often a LONG way down research paths that you haven't started on, this was just 1.5 years of Earth income
Depending on which nation you are playing, getting extra 6k gold is far more valuable than summoning chaff or putting items on commanders you don't have/using research you haven't researched.

sorry about those provs buddy, i'll back it up
Evan Flores
Don't bother. I'm magic phasing them.
Julian Edwards
I'd really rather not lose the thugs, especially when I'm going to be pissing a bunch of pearls on dispel
Jeremiah Bailey
eh. fine. Send some gems or something.
Mason Foster
How can Jomon even compete with BWR?
Charles Flores
No wonder the guns are so weak, they are just shoving rocks they find on the ground into their guns.
David Wilson
Didn't bother me, I just kicked the damage up a little bit.
Kayden Richardson
>Thunder Weapons stun on hit jesus christ how horrifying
Gavin Martinez
If you have E2 mages you can use these gems to spam battle-winning spells like Maws. Even a handful of fuckers casting Maws twice is enough to wreck most armies.
Charles Price
I am not saying "convert all Earth gems to gold" I am saying "Convert the excess to a game winning surplus of gold on a gold starved nation"
So spending 30 of them casting Maws? No biggie Spending another 30-45 on Hammers? Great Then dump the extra 200 gems into 6k gold after you got Alt 6
Julian Barnes
I don't think that this is never the right move but I also think that you can kill 90% of nations, until the very late game, by just spamming Maws. If you're gold-capped and can't field more Earth mages then okay, but otherwise you can convert gems to wins at an alarming rate.
Jayden Flores
Um, guys, if all of you (those who aren't Ulm, anyway) really want Ulm to win as soon as possible, I'm unironically ok with conceding. I still have no idea why you completely refuse to fight the guy who owns 2/3 of the world, but if you're dead set on actually helping him, then let's just end this?
Carson Howard
Boiling Water Reactor?
Ayden Lopez
big white rifles i think
Lincoln Barnes
Piercing and armour piercing together ignore 60% of the target's protection so 10 damage can even punch through enemies with 25 protection
Jose Peterson
>MA Ulm with Army of Lead help
Jaxson Miller
Spell penetration items boyo Also they're still cripplingly vulnerable to getting overfatigued
Chase Baker
Foulflesh casts bone grinding
Maneater casts bone grinding
Skullface casts bone grinding
Purcestator casts bone grinding
the armies of Ulm are routed
Wyatt Ward
That's a lot of D7 casters
John Evans
they kill any number of Ulm troops
Aaron Rogers
Sure, but getting 4 casters with D6+ is really hard. You're looking at Tartarians with the right path or at Liches with 2 boosters.
Parker Williams
liches are ench8, tartarians are conj9, army of lead is alt9, if he has his spell you have yours
James Ward
Foul Vapors is very solid against Ulm.
Zachary Hill
The problem isn't research, but gems.
Aiden Martinez
There shouldn't be ANY spells that effect whole battlefields outside of stuff like storm which does no direct damage
Andrew Perry
That's a bad opinion.
Leo Bell
I agree. Though spells that deal small damage over time like Foul Vapors are debatable.
Mason Harris
Foul vapors doesn't hit the whole battlefield, it only hits like 1/10th per turn or something
Logan Sanchez
trade, buy, site search, alchemize
work on your gem economy
Henry Foster
Massed thunderstrikes excel at removing Ulm, and Army of Lead will make them even more vulnerable.
Lucas Richardson
Who's your favorite hero, /domg/?
Colton Baker
My dad
Jaxson Miller
i wish i could say this
Andrew Jackson
Malphas. He always shows up on like turn 3.
Julian Long
I like Hinnom's heroes but they all have arrival limits so they won't be available until mid-year 2.
Isaiah Perry
Golog. He sees foolishness of the youngsters, secludes himself with the dead but still comes when his nation is in trouble.
Lincoln Jenkins
t. Malphas
James Wood
Forester Bob, the One True Meme of Domg. He alone can face the SA memes and triumph.
Dylan Powell
Lugh "Yeah but do you have a spot for somebody who is the best at everything?" Long Handed
Caleb Miller
Any games recruiting?
Jacob Peterson
Reminder to go AI in all your games and get ready for Dom5.
RemoveNazca! Just like RemoveLanka, but Middle Aged!
Alexander Edwards
Remove Conflux already ffs
Alexander Price
Hot Take: Fireballs etc should be way, way more accurate.
Liam Price
Good ol' Etimmu.
Levi Rogers
Why remove Nazca? There are nations a lot more cancerous in MA.
Jayden Hill
Was the winner in the last MA game I was in, so I named it that.
Same reason I named RemoveLanka, the EA game.
Leo Green
t. Nazcakal
Jeremiah Brown
What pretender was he using?
Samuel Watson
Wanna say f9w9? I played sceleria and was honestly just way too passive. amassed by far the biggest army in the game and sat on it.
Elijah Ross
>Then dump the extra 200 gems into 6k gold after you got Alt 6 No, don't do that. There's so many amazing sinks you can drop earth gems into, and plenty of them are low research.
Drop all your gems into Hidden in Sand, Hidden Underneath, or Troll King's Court, for example. They're level 5-6 research, and you must have a decent amount of research by the time you hit Alt6. Save your gems until those are available then dump them all into good summons.
Or go for Clockwork Horrors, Gargoyles, Living Statues, Trolls. All good options to sink a bunch of gems into.
If you're really hard up for research, there's still options like Ogres and Cave Crabs/Drakes.
Of course there's possible situations where gold is more vital to you than these, but if you're looking at your earth gems and thinking "the best option here is for me to turn these into gold", you're probably wrong.
Camden Edwards
I'm busy with Ragha, especially since Krewlod is jumping in trying to keep them alive for whatever reason.
Grayson Barnes
By Ragha you mean Erathia?
Justin Young
Whoops, yeah. Sorry, always get those two confused.
Brandon Harris
>tfw you realize best jotunheim is scale jotunheim
Lucas Myers
What's so good about it that you're willing to give up N9 skrattir thugs?
Juan Richardson
maybe he was talking about a N9 imprisoned tree scale jotunheim
Kayden Stewart
That's just the standard Jotunheim build though, not exactly something you need to realize.
Mason Garcia
>twf my commander Jotun with the heroic ability that gave him more HP was scared of indies, got an affliction that gives -5 to Morale and fled to my territory that was conquered by Pan on that turn resolution so the game said that he died due to fleeing to an enemy province He still only had 59 HP yet, dammit.
William Foster
I still want to try out soul contract jotunheim
