Has anyone played with Dom 4 this side of 2010? T'was my understanding that the threat of quick dom-kills via ghost king or the like has made anything less than dom-6 so unthinkable..... and thus made quick dom-kills unthinkable.... leading to a situation where perhaps one could get away with dom 4 again since no one would expect a dom-kill to work anymore.


I can see the usual EA dom-killers take lower Dom, due to being protected from getting killed by strong priests / godly blood magic.
Personally i find anything below 6 silly, but think about all those saved points for a rainbow mage and good scales!

Everyone in this round appears to have high Dom, so it cancels out for no dom's. Everyone could've just as well went with Dom3, it would end up being the same.. Except for that one person who goes 9-10 ANYWAY just to rule the world.

That single threat is the biggest reason people take dom 9. (well, this and Awe)

Second turn, same as the first. A little bit louder and a little bit worse.

So it seems I accidentally put my canteen in my wheelbarrow and didn't notice... and then I got really thirsty... so right before going to sleep I go to take a swig from my canteen and... end up snorting a line of low-grade meth.

Whelp, just lost 19 crossbowmen due to crappy intel. Scout says there's 10 guys there, mostly heavy infantry.

Turns outs theres 20+, and 16 are knights >:(

Woo Scry Dominion. (What, someone said I should leverage my strengths. Scry dominions counts, right?)

As for incomplete intel-- look at that beauty of a Hall of Fame. Seems me and C'tis are the two who chose to go with awake SC gods, and I'd say from the kill count and experience that C'tis is using magic or ranged methods. There are a few other minor tidbits that could be gleamed from the hall, but.... bleh, ain't much of importance.

   The hall of fame also shows naming Themes if there is one. I have mostly gone with humorous names so far. For instance my scout who temporarily was in the hall of fame was named Found You and my prophet is named He Is because of the prophet announcement.

At first I was like silly you, he's not range... oh wait, that's exactly what he did, throwing tiny stones where he could have been trampling everybody to death... now he has a nice limp, and the whole shame of a nation.
