Default Re: Question: Viable Dead Dominion Strategy?

In my first MP game, one nation was out by turn 7, due to dominion death. It is possible that the dominion 10 neighbour had not even made contact with troops yet, especially if they had explored in a different direction.

Gandalf Parker had some fun ideas relating to this and a smoking mirror pretender. However, even the game designers commented that it was possible Gandalf was insane. You might want to run a search on it, it was in the Dom II forums.

One of his theoretical plans was playing hopscotch with Pangaea. Leave gaps between your provinces, stealth Dryads through and build temple/lab/fort. When an enemy finds you and storms your "capital", he'll bit quite dumbfounded when he no longer knows where your troops came from. Would work better with easier access to Air, for flying, of course. Caelum might be do this if it's flying troops were better.

Pangaea has unique castle in capital, so it's not viable at least in dom3.
