Far be it from me to lay blame at the feet of the innocent, accursed, ugly Fomorians! Why, I haven't even met them. Let us hope I never will!
I'll still kill them if they enter the sea.
No, the guilty party is less malformed and stinky, but all the more nefarious for it.

Me miserable! which way shall I fly
Infinite wrath, and infinite despair?
Which way I fly is Hell; myself am Hell;
And, in the lowest deep, a lower deep
Still threatening to devour me opens wide,
To which the Hell I suffer seems a Heaven.

It's in game-beginings like that that I miss my 3 province flying Scouts ... :/
I want a nation with Caelum's scouts, Oceania's amphibian spiky centaurs, Niefelheim's frosty giants, and T'ien C'hi's know-it-all mages ! :D

Damn you Black Bone. When I decided to hire you, I was under the impression that the word "pirate" stands for something more than just militia in fancy clothing.
Shall it never happen to you again.
You then can look up the exact units in inspector.

Is it really a Dom4 list ?
Because each time I found a merc list, it was for Dom3, and there are many new mercenary groups in Dom4 ... :/

I'm not sure, but I think one for Dominions 4 does exist. I'm not at home for another two days so I can't check.
Even so, most mercenaries are in the olds lists.

Nothing quite like a battle you expected would just be against archers, militia, and heavy infantry wake you up when you also see a priest, 2 wizards and a sorcerer.

And yet no magic items dropped. Cheap bastards.

He didn't have any candle. Nobody worshipped him.
That's a thing that can happen when you build a pretender with a low dominion score and when there are enemy prophets/pretenders near (as those spread dominion without even preaching).

I mean why so fast ? Should we start cowering from some dominion eating monster fish nation thing ?

Also is every nation but me getting these heroes ?  Berytian melqarts dancing near the border, Giant Ape Jesus and i think i spotted another one this turn..

Mictlan's dominion doesn't spread au naturel. It must be spread by blood sacrifice. It is possible that they got squished by very strong hostile dominion, but that seems very early -- someone's also just gained a free capitol province. You should be wary of the person making such gains... very alarming, so soon into the game.

PS. Berytos, I will destroy that temple, one way or another. I will bring it to ruin.

That's the other thing, if EA/LA Mictlan's pretender is sleeping or imprisoned, they need to set someone on blood sac duty very early. They really can't afford to wait - and they REALLY need a high dominion score under those circumstances so they're not just wasting slaves. If they do wait, they're very vulnerable to random chance or hostile action knocking out what little dominion they start with. I'm wanting to say the change limiting dominion loss/change bad events to turn 10+ was the current patch and not the forthcoming one, but even if they have that grace period, all it takes is a neighbor who prophetized a scout stumbling onto their capital early in the game...

ho shit  :o

EDIT: in the name of peace, and to not need to move more troops then i have to, i have sent a lowly mage to have the temple deconstructed, in hopes of keeping the Provence and the peace

Alas, of the three construction types, Temples are the only one that cannot be demolished - they must be razed by invaders capturing the province...
