Default Re: Dominion Killing

Pretty much what QM said really.

I've started using dominion much more aggressively in my games. But its quite hard to kill off an enemy capital, but it is possible, though Im not sure how easy with most races.

The mage priest thing is as QM said, makes it easier.. blood sacrifice nations have an advantage in this area though.

Preaching will never directly increase the spread of dominion for neighbouring regions. It can only ever increase the dominion inside the region being preached. When a temple is built within a region it causes a special chance to increase dominion based on the current level of dominion there. It is this 'temple' check that can spread dominion to adjacent provinces. When a temple check successfuly does get an increase in its region there is a chance it will be in a random adjacent one. As preaching can help increase current region dominion only it just helps along the chance that a temple might spread nearby.

Thats the basics as i understand them, although there are quirks to dominion spread, Your god sends it out in all sorts of odd ways and it seems to travel in wierd direction sometimes too. Not sure how that one works at all. Is it based on population size ? or region type ? so its harder for worship to spread over impenetrable mountains etc ?

Either way if you want to slay enemy dom. Build temples around a capital and get them preached up to as high as you can as fast as you can and hope the temples do the work for you.
