/domg/ - Dominions General

make the goddamn thread already 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 3000 units, 900 spells and 400 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.

>mfw reading the last thread and Ermor false flagged almost a dozen posts to piss off the lizardmen

C'tis if you're reading this pretty much nothing past the maybe first or second replies to you was true. I'm actually not even sure if he was replying to you or just himself to make it look like we hate each other. He tried to do this with Agartha and I as well. I'm willing to bet he was the one who went on a shitposting campaign to make it look like I was staling on top of it all. Let's keep our diplomacy to messages, the thread is clearly compromised.

Ermor I don't even care about winning this game anymore. These kinds of political games can not go unanswered. I am going to dedicate myself to utterly wiping you out.

Is this a good game for a low attention span weeb boi?

Yep, this is the right game for you

I love Ulm

me too buddy

best nation tbqh

I miss when /domg/ used to Touhoupost all the time.

Lel my first ventures into modding

Let us talk about uses for Huli Jin and Kitsune.

black heart assassins with mpen gear scripted to Creeping Doom, Charm,x4

Is it possible to edit a save game to add a master password?

So just ghetto Dryads then?

Higher nature!

but yes

Stop making up excuses anyway; you don't need any since you're all hell bent on fighting me anyway so no need to lie about diplo on top of that.

I have my soundtrack as well
youtube.com/watch?v=qYpaMeJm3ic

I might not win but you're gonna have a ride you'll never forget.

Not as far as I know, but I've never really looked into save editing.

Why would you want to, anyway?

Who are you on Steam?

Cause I started a network game without a password but now I'm paranoid about shodan/portmappers.

Malakal

No you're not.

I find your diplomacy antics both amusing and despicable. Your lack of moral fortitude would make Machiavelli jealous. For all I know you are Machiavelli risen from the dead. You're still ded kid

Is there some upper limit on how fat carrion-eaters can get?

This is turning into a shitshow. People false flag around here all the time as you can plainly see from . I'm the real Ermor.
What do you need my steam for?

Isn't black heart blood?

for anyone that doesn't realize, Ermor has been shitting up the thread in both Dominos and Bigguys. Both
are him and he's false flagging himself now.

Ave, Ossa, morituri te salutant.

Let's see how many skellies I can burn down before I'm gone.

Nah, never been in BigGuys. I'm in a few games but that is not one of them.

I haven't read Machiavelli in a while but he surely was one of my favourites at Uni. Nevertheless, I've been a bro, ask Asphodel. The world is just hell bent on making the skellies pay for everything.

SUCK MY FUCK CATFISH FUCKING SHITS
now you will be shown how bullying is really done

>one minute every day

laughingsluts.webm

What happened to your flame jellies?

They usually perform better than that.

But there would be nothing to play if you're not playing singleplayer

Oh shit sorry
>three minutes every day

...

4 combat speed. Catfish trash chaff couldn't hold my dudes long enough for them to catch up. I had everything blobbed together at the front so catfish removal could begin as soon as possible.

come to terms with your autism, multiplayers. Singleplayer is the only true gamemode

Why did ryleh use slaves instead of lobos...?

Enjoy beating the retarded AI over and over with no effort, I guess.

To each their own.

>if it's easy it's not fun
Whoa...

>if it's easy it's not fun
Well, yeah.

I mean why else do you play Dominions? The captivating story?

It's dominions, not gayboy moba clone no. 2995792505883885.

It plays like online chess or shogi than typical steam erp games.

Because lobos are a right cunt to herd to the front in any quantity due to lolmagicbeing. Slaves are easier to move around and don't die as much.

Magic

>not ERPing in Dominions

Look at this scrub.

>tfw been playing and thinking about turns all day along with doing my usual tasks
If you're engaging in actual strategy, it can occupy a fair amount of time even if the actual gameplay can be done pretty quickly.

That's fair. Not everyone has to play Dominions as a brutal struggle for survival. It's probably good for just fucking around with magic.

post dominions ERP logs

Using magic on thinking opponents is much more satisfying

that only exists to be used strategically against resisting opponents

it's a fucking novelty that'll last you 20 hours in singleplayer, if that. Sorry but you just have some kind of autism that makes it hard for you to play well with other people in a competitive environment. It's not debilitating, but you're basically subhuman either way.

>13 mages plus 300 good troops defeat 8 mages plus 250 chaff
It's not because of you that you won that.

Gibodai are never obsolete and are never chaff user
Same as Great Olms, mind blast is a really, really good attack

8 aboleth commanders have the magic being command covered easy. Mindblasters paralyze, shitty lobos kill.

My computer broke please no bully.
I'll be a gud boi from now on.

>79 MP-blessed mindblasters in an UW fight
>chaff
lurk more brainlet, they're 50g units and that is a bargain for their effect

Anyone has a suggestion for map, by the way?

I like Valanis

>it's a "game spotted after the nation you felt like playing as is already taken" episode

Normally I'd say Valanis is shit (it is balance-wise), but even Valanis is better balanced than random gen, and its one of maybe 4-5 maps of any decent size that actually exist in dom5.

Been what, about a month and still no map larger than about Peliwyr.

I just like how it looks. Sucks for water nations.

5.09 changelog says "New wish", any idea what it is?

Isn't it way too small for 14 players though? He could still go with it but we'd be quite cramped to say the least.

make 2d real

woah mama

hey guys I just saw this guy post this info about scales in discord. thought I'd share

Kurple: so revised conclusion:
order1-2 gives nice gold events
order3 gives nice events, but 50% diminishing return compared to order1-2

turmoil1 gives pretty good events too. only need 1 for events

prod/sloth does not affect gold events significantly. however, sloth gives -tax,-income events so bad.

heat gives no events
cold gives -gold events

luck obviously gives lots of gold events. luck1~3 all give good return on investment. max if possible
even unluck gives gold events. but they really suck.

magic1~3 all give very nice gold events. gems are not included in the analysis, but they are give in magic.
unmagic does not give any gold events at all

Turmoil/Luck/Magic master race reporting in.

that'd be well over 50 gems worth of magic beings you lucky little shit

Because large maps are a lot of tedious work to make.

What about Growth?

Well yeah.

Dom5 has no 14 player maps at all that aren't random gen, which require lots of sanitizing to make not utterly suck.

>unluck
What trill faggotry is this?
>unmagic
That's not even shorter what the fuck

Yeah I've locked it at 11, since I'm quite busy now I'd rather just start as it is than have to wait until I've fixed up some shitty random map that's all fucked up. I'll go on Valanis, unless anyone has any objections, it's a 8-10 player map so 11 should be just fine.

that's what the guy said that inspector uses. it even says it for the modding guide

What kind of units should MA Ulm expand with? Regular Infantry? Black Plate Infantry? Pikeneers?

which units should i use for early game xibalba?
i mean the bats die for armies with half their number
should i just spam scorpions?

>which units should i use for early game xibalba?
Use bats.
>i mean the bats die for armies with half their number
Use more bats.
>should i just spam sc-
USE MORE BATS!

regular until you can afford black plate
once you have black plate, you'll steamroll all indies

BUT user THEIR MORAL IS FUCKIN SHIT
EVEN THEY DONT GET OBLITERATED BY INDIES THEY JUST GET THE FUCK OUT!

Melee or longbow dai bakemono for early expansion?
should i build other units to reinforce them?

I have fully embraced the scales pill and will never turn back. Bless fags can eat my ass.

Hold and attack rear
Congratulations you have figured out expansion with Xibala Buy the lance bats, get a decent number and you'll get the commanders as soon as the fighting actually begins

Prepare for BIG size 6 cyclops shlong in ur skeleholes, Ermor

Modnation game when?

>about to go to sleep
>new turn comes in
>fine I'll do this turn and then go to sleep

I'll be here all night.

>edge of map water start
>2 connections
>1 is a throne
>should definitely be a nostart prov
wooooow
pls restart, I'm not even a water nation

meant to reply to >2 land connection provs without nostart in general
literally
LITERALLY
the random mapgen knows better than this
nostart is default for 2 land connections on random gen by default

I'm assuming the shielded ones are best?

Are Pikeneers worth a damn for expanding?

Come on goy, blind expand.

on review in mapedit the map has nostart set properly for every other province than the one I started in.

please edit and restart with this in mind, I can do the editing myself if you'd like but w/e

>send out gudmage to search my first province
>find three sites that give me a temple, a lab, a castle and a bunch of uniques

>take misf 2
