could someone explain this to me?

I am playing tien chi. I have plenty of units. Living and Non-living. Plenty of commanders. I host next turn and I am vanquised...with no explanation! The only things that happened where that burden of time was cast ( sayin that one unit was killed. even if that was my pretender I believe i should be abled to be called back (note my pretender had perished once before)), and a fortress i had captured was being sieged (pretender not in there.

is this some kind of bug? how frustrating!!!!!

Your dominion probably was snuffed. If that happens, in other words, if all your dominion levels in all provinces drops to zero or becomes an enemy's dominion, represented by the candles, you lose.

If your pretender dies and you do not have your dominion in any provinces, you're toast.

Losing all dominion is a game-ender, period. If your pretender dies on the same turn in a combat, that's just insult on top of injury.

Aye. If nobody believe in thee divine power, than you are the God no more.

Unless you've hit a bug, there should be a message about your god being vanquished and why. It'd be at the bottom of the usual array of Messages that appear at the beginning of a turn, telling you what happened during the hosting.
