    Misfortune definitely feels like a real cost in Dominions 6. Still easier to dump than scales your nation needs to expand, but especially early game when you don't have a ton of provinces, it can cost a lot of momentum.

    Dom 1 versus Dom 8 discussion is a false dichotomy prevalent in the Dom 6 community. There are good arguments for say Dom 3 or 4 depending on pretender, bless and scales

    Did anyone ever do heavy testing on the Asphodel reanimation and freespawn for the current Asphodel? I tried doing some testing and my results were all over the place… probably need a much larger sample size to see the effects of the different scale values. Also, desperate to find a trick to make darkseed work faster.

    I've had a minor disagreement with somebody before about afflictions. That taking just a bit of earth magic for affliction res is good when you have regen just to reduce the chances as much as possible. Because of this. You have E7 and regen and this fuggin elephant still got afflicted by heavy cav. What a world we live in for that rng.

    I still haven’t had a chance to play Asphodel in MP, so this should be a fun series. I'm going to guess that you become a terror around turn 20 or so but drop off in the late game - or you get coalitioned, which is always a fun time. 😂

    Asphodel has done really well in the MP games I've seen them, maybe due to people not recruiting indy priests or coalitioning them early, but they seem to generate an absurd amount of freespawn.

I like the theme of them and would be interested in giving them a go in 6 even despite the nerfs.

    This really just shows the level of strategic depth that this game has, holy cow. I'm pretty new to the series and Ill be honest my mindset is so conventional that when I saw the stacks I thought there was no way you could deal with that lmao. Ill take more time to study the magic system in this game, it seems far more flexible, powerful, and interesting than I thought.

    Trample works on anything smaller than you, but the damage does scale a bit with difference in size. The 3 sizes difference thing is for non damaging displacement of friendly troops, which tramplers can't actually do. A quirk on the coding of it and Illwinter has just decided to leave it as is for now

  • @brastionskywarrior6951
    @brastionskywarrior69513 ай бұрын

    Higher quality freespawn is affected by magic scales, more freespawn is affected by growth scales and the presence of a forest. It is unclear to me exactly how dominion affects spawns. But it seems sacred spawns are limited on low dominion. 1/3 sacred freespawn are the new sacred minotaur manikens with the skull axes

    @@brastionskywarrior6951 it also seems like only forests can freespawn the beasts, have you found this to be the case too? and temples seem to spawn better versions of manikins despite dominion (ive only seen satyr manikin/mandragora spawn when there is a temple, even at 1 dominion, whereas only manikin seem to spawn on non forest, non templed provinces). does any of this seem incorrect to you?

    I'm not a numbers guy, so my observations are based on generalization and vibes, but I know people who do crunch the numbers a lot on discord and such, so you can find the info out there somewhere probably. So generally speaking it's like you guys say: different beast type freespawn are in forests (also from reanimation anywhere). Temple forests give sacreds Illwiki website still has the old numbers from Dom 5 I think, which are probably not much changed.
