LL: only the priests recruited/summoned after the stone idols would preach after the heretic effect since I think preaching occurs in order of unitID.

Otherwise, I like your thinking there since I like running Agartha with Dom 4. My defense against domkill has been a strong early game and an H4 Oracle prophet to preach the fort temples up to dom10 to resist random domspread in the late game.

Stone idols with earth readers could provide some additional domsinks which would help since dom4 can be scary.

what spells did you set them to? Also remember they need to have earth and astral so that they are able to cast it.

Hinomm- The Caelum Empire is feeling the effects of your vile dominion from all the way on the other side of the world.

Tone it town, or else we will make it so that you are no longer able to generate that ridiculous amount of dominion spam.

Toning it down, and I should be able to stop it completely in a turn or two.

As for trying to make it so that I cannot generate ridiculous amounts of dominion spam, you'll have to fight with Arco over who is going to seige my forts and stop me from generating it.

The slaves are already in my pocket. I'm just using them to do what he accused me of earlier to put Arco out of business after he violated our NAP.

Oh they did have it. all my slaves had E4S4, yet they just refused to cast them. Think they switched over to Solar Rays or somesuch, or even Blade Winds. And probably not even the former, too.

Plus, a major battlefield ench I was casting didn't fire, arrrrgh.

Time to meticulously review everything.

Ah well, nothing major. Didn't lose anything too valuable.

Btw just to make sure, you know that slaves won't cast a spell in a turn if a master has caster a spell(but as you are saying that they switched to some other spells that desn't seem to be the case).

...Well that explains it then, actually. Must've been one of the masters casting it.



No wonder my reverse communions fail Miserably.

Events adding 60-70 PD, aww yeah.

Also, tch, none of my sleepers aimed for your Zmeys, I set my bane lord to trample, and I apparently fail reverse communions 1 on 1, since the major evocations I was planning on casting...were never cast.
