/domg/ - Dominions General
Uma 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 3400 units, 1100 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.

Dear bear,

Sure, but there isn't much use since it's attack is in the gutter and it never gets xp. A burning pearl helps, but if it ever gets limped you're still sitting at a 10 attack that never improves.

Though, if it's smart enough to cast it in combat, it can fist the ever loving shit out of things with alt1's Iron Fist spell for obscene damage. Love the idea of someone trying to rush Machaka early thinking it's an easy kill only for their giants to get one tapped every turn by the fist of the north star.
Or maybe go for sheer number of attacks hoping one lands via gloves of the gladiator or something (they do almost 50 damage a hit)

Leave a few troops in a place and pray, mostly.
Items are random, you'll occasionally be able to buy one or find one on a random unit. The guildmaster's adventurers often spawn with items, but you can't control them or take them away from them, unfortunately.

Pretty much. Trying to hold onto anything not near your existing forces, or near somewhere that spawns undead/demons/deer is suffering, and you kinda just gotta march back on over there.
I tend to leave a token force at valuable mines and such if I can.

Certain classes get freespawn and prefer certain resources over others. Dwarves and Kobolds only care about greater mines, and should only bother with towns and cities if they're close to said mines. Dryad and Druids love ancient forests, which for most other classes are the biggest source of rampaging deer. Troll king can eventually capture ancient forests and start freespawning some mindless units, thus annoying everyone else. Or if you really hate nature, play scourge lord and eventually the whole world will be a giant desert. Not all classes are made equal, and half the fun is discovering what cool thing your dudes can do.

Funny, I can't stand playing guildmaster. I think my go to classes are senator, cloud lord, and maybe dwarves. And only 2 ancient forests? Even on empire setting I would get at least 3-4. What settings do you usually play on?

I dunno. I think it's the start of civilization, usually.
I like guildmaster because my favourite part in RTS is always to build my empire, so Guildmaster is exactly my jam, roleplay and gameplay wise.

I tried Baron and Dwarfs but RNG smiled upon and said "not today, twink".

Pretty much as soon as expansion was over I started a war with Therodos and poured all my resources into that. I thought I got a good start, but couldn't pin down his bronze colossus tendie. Eventually he completely outplayed me by teleporting it onto an army I meant to push back a horde of ghosts. I lost my cap, god, and pretty much all of my forces, and at that point went AI.

I was curious what you were gonna do after building up in your corner so long. When you first attacked I thought you were joining Therodos against me, but I guess you were gunning for Agartha instead. Good on you for holding out instead of just quitting.

I just had my mages on "Cast Spells", which isprobably why they did nothing. Then again, that last army was set up to clear several hundred ghosts and not just one big guy, so when the big guy teleported in all my melee guys ran forward and the mages sat out of range to do anything useful.

when i came up with my bronze colossus build i was testing how weak he is to earth mages casting shatter or how many earth mages it takes to kill him with phoenix pyre and max reinvigoration.
and i noticed that the earth mages dont cast shatter consistently for some reason, even when you script them to cast it five times. they cast other spells. i tested it with the improved spellcasting ai mod and it made no difference.
thats one of the reasons why i use the bronze colossus and not the telkhine god-king.

eyecatcher and boots of quickness and burning pearl, together with thaum2 f2 battle fury, would have helped. and then a lot of chaff to harrass the defense down. just a single hit from the eyecatcher causes an eye loss and tips the scales in your favor to get another hit, and a blind colossus would have a massive -9 penalty to attack, defense and precision. and inanimates can be a bit difficult to heal in dom6, i think. while smashers are great, one hit is not generally sufficient. with eyecatcher, one hit will typically lead to many more from everyone, and make it harder for the target to fight back

Why would they die? Fatigue is spread between all slaves, but it's lessened by all the supplementary levels that the communism master get, so it goes from 200 fatigue to probably something like 100, divided between all the communism slaves.

Wait, wait, I'm confused.
So, most spells give 20 fatigue, and if the fatigue gets over 100, then the wizard passes out like me when I watched The Raid. And if it get over 200, then the wizzard also takes damage, right?
And some spells cause 300 fatigue, so the trick is to be overlevelled so that there's a discount, correct?

What do gems do? Outside of being needed for some spells...

Yes to both.
You can burn an extra gem to cast one level higher than normal. However it also costs more fatigue. A lot of gem costing spells you don't have to spam outside of stuff like living X/nature bug spells since most gem stuff is just battlefield enchants you need only one caster to cast.

Oh shit. Yeah, I'm definitely checking the "conservative gems usage" thing, then. Do we know how much fatigue is added/discounted depending from overlevels and what else?
Also, is it a good idea to slap a lot of reinvigoriation stuff on your caster? Like these birch boots or what else?

If your masters are casting spells with paths your slaves dont have, the slaves take assloads of fatigue. But you still want to do that because getting a new path into your battle script can easily be the deciding factor. You just have to be careful that you wont need those slaves again later.

Indie heavy infantry is just so pointless. Too slow to raise to help in a really desperate situation. Too much of a gold waste if I'm just building army - might as well just build another fort to recruit more troops from.

I don't remember the exact mechanics but I do remember thinking that at some point and giving it a try, and holy shit do your mages go down faster without.
Essentially, being older does increase your chances of catching shit, but actual age is just one of the factors. The longer you have the old aged trait, the worse your chances get every additional year you survive.
I might also recall wrong, but doesn't that trait also make units retroactively age slower? So they spawn younger than the recruiting panel says, possibly even young enough not to be old aged.
Really not sure if any of this is correct, but I do know I did regret the fuck out of it when I didn't take it. Old geezers dropping left and right like seagull shit after a hearty dose of laxative infused popcorn

they make a big deal of how fascinated and well traveled the Centaurs end up becoming. I think, even without the threat of other nations, the centaurs were always fated to become curious of Mankind's ways and slowly, "corrupt" the other Halfmen. It was never Metallurgy that the Panii and Dryads spoke againsts, even back in The Age of Revelry they had Bronze weapons, it was about being forced to wear pants and use bricks for your walls.

>When the ways of man came to the ancient woods, the halfmen initially refused to adopt the new ways. But as it became clear that well-trained, disciplined and armored troops would defeat huge armies of wild satyrs, bronze cuirasses were forged and given to satyrs trained in battle. Satyr hoplites became the core unit of the Pangaean armies. With greater exposure to the civilization of man came the skills of ironworking. In this New Era, the bronze armor of old has been replaced by cheaper and stronger armor of steel.

Congrats R'lyeh. That was a crazy game.
I had hoped the extra gold and gems would allow me to print mages, castles and temples, and hopefully grow too large to stop before I inevitably fell behind in magic, but it didn't pay off AT ALL. Was still fun to try, though.
What the fuck was the fire bombing ritual you kept throwing at my castles? It was killing 600-1000 skellies every time

Around the time I was cleaning up Asphodel's coast/cap Ermor sent a message talking about how Marignon had 3 thrones and was on the cusp of 2 more. I remember dooming pretty hard about how Mari had already won and my armies were out of place to bother them.

Flames from the sky, level 9 evo. The fire throne let me recruit fire 3 mages. One death empowerment and I could make the flame helmet and the skull of fire to start blasting.

Didn't really feel like I had a real shot at winning the game until the global board was monopolized by me. The throne on the island in the ocean was only worth 1 point so I still needed 5 more thrones to win. That time the globals got wiped was a blessing in disguise. With Agartha's stuff out of the way I was open to cast arcane decree and really lock it down without needing to dispell stuff first. Why did Agartha go ai anyway?

Lol at the point there are more squids than skeletons. Brave skeletons though, saw the coming of God and tried in earnest to stop it. Luckily there was a construction discount site for mass producing golems. Looking through the artifact list showed the mobile dome that I assumed did a lot of work. Never showed any messages if it did anything. Mari did some half hearted stuff and only started fighting for real when I retaliated. And to be honest they were pretty scary. Before they gave up there were a couple seraphs running around that were unstoppable.

Actually getting my armies to where they needed to be to win the game was a slog. Most of the time wasted just getting around. To the point that I see this game more lost by Marignon than won by me. Mari had 3 thrones and was pretty much adjacent to the last 2 but never made a move. Despite finishing research quickly. Even if I saw the winning attempt there was no way for me to deny one of their thrones before they won. At least that's how I saw it.

Honestly I've never gotten research 9 in everything but I allied with Ermor against the squids. In restrospect I should've just rushed him. I mainly lost hope because I saw all those globals and the infinite amount of gems you had compared to me, along with the fact you could casually wish for everything in the game at this point. My economy was completely ruined by my bless.

That first seraph was a powerful deterrent. Couldn't really commit anything because it could kill everything. The plan was to eventually mass a bunch of ancient presences and pray one of them ate it. Was less worried about the flames from the skies but still needed to wait those out until you ran out of gems. I knew attrition of any kind was massively in my favor at that point.

The classic "you need your mages for research, you need your mages for fighting, you barely have mages" problem really bit me hard here. I really had aimed for an early victory, counting on everyone else playing for the late game, but Pythium held out a lot better than expected, Mictlan attacked me, and Xibalba had a doomstack sitting at my border "to fight Man", but well, gotta leave a force there. I could handle it but I just didn't have the skellypower to finish either war quickly, and dedicating mages to battle was right out. I only managed to get one path to 9, not long before the end of the game...
So when all the squids started flowing in, I found myself without much I could do at all. Throwing hordes around also wouldn't bring much, since squid stacks are excellent at snipping the commanders.
I tried to pivot to tartarians and a couple other big spells, but you also managed to Wish my pretender death twice right at the worst possible moment, which slowed me down a lot.
All in all a massive failure all over the place.

I actually won a max research speed game with MA Ermor like a decade ago because everyone trusted friendly trader Ermor and got me swimming in literally thousands of gems in exchange for all kinds of shit, information, protection money, etc. and no one could take down my third Utterdark at 700 gems overcast, but this time I failed horribly.

Even if that is a significant enough balance problem to try to solve it yourself through messing with game settings, you do know these settings apply to every nation in the game, not just LA ones? They're still going to have the same advantage proportionally with their forts over everyone, aside from popkill nations of course, which seems to be the actual thing you're encouraging with these settings. Really getting badmin vibes from this entire thing, what with the retarded way you type and all. That's not even what relativistically means.

I have CoE5 and Dom4
CoE seems easier to learn, does it translate well to Dom understanding?

CoE is nothing like Dominions. CoE is closer to a rougelike and Dominions is a 4X.

Dominions 6 has more content and the multiplayer scene among other changes, but I recommend you just play Dom 4 and see if you like it enough to get 6.

If you are interested in the multiplayer at all you gotta get 6, and to be honest the game is by far at its best in multiplayer.
It's perfectly fine to play 4 by yourself if you are just deciding whether to get into it or not though if you have it already or its going for very cheap. Each new game is pretty much the same at its core, newer versions just get new toys to play with, QoL updates, engine revisions and stuff.
Mechanically there is very little overlap between Dom and CoE, but you will see loads of the same assets and lore concepts between the two

That's what makes them annoying. They're an anti-lobby nation that doesn't want any other water nation in game because they'll lose the knifefight. They're a land nation with an underwater capital going 'ha-ha you can't hit me back'

Everybody gets bodied at first, but its worth it.
Only 1 person can win and long term games usually have 9+ people, there is no shame in losing. You will learn extremely quick from every loss too.
The only thing you need to be able to do to join a mp game without humiliating yourself is to be good enough with your nation to get approx 15 provinces in the first year of the game, and thats a pretty easy task for most nations, especially if you take a strong monster god to expand with or a big bless.

if you hamper the ability to produce high resource troops (something LA nations excel at) then you strengthen nations that don't depend on high resource troops as much

I don't understand how this is a complex calculus
If I reduced every single resource in the game by the same percentage, yeah you might have a point. But in this case you are just a retard

Mages, Sacreds (assuming they aren't resource capped), low resource mundane troops, and so on all become relatively more plentiful

If this isn't intuitively obvious to you then I can't help you
And I really question your ability to a valuable analysis of any kind
