Too interesting to pass, I'm in.

There won't be any point in gem generators with so little gems, and the game will probably be over before you can actually gain from them.

Re: Forge of Godhood - recruiting
 

Please forgive the changing of settings after he game has been announced, but it seems a few changes are probably needed, based on input. I updated the first page with the following changes:

*No magic above level 8 allowed, to limit bless rushes.

*Map swapped from Aran to Desert Eye. It is a bit bigger, but I think it is important the map wrap around to avoid excessive advantage for those on the edges.

*All gem generators will be modded to be unique items. Originally I was thinking the game will never reach that stage, but better safe than sorry.

It's almost there (1031 vs 36 dominion). He's still got 15 provinces, including his capitol, but just 6 candles. Any time you've got high starting dominion and a blood-sacrifice nation you can do it, because of the huge number of temple checks you can generate.

Re: Forge of Godhood - recruiting
 

I won a game with dom kill. I also lose one game due to dom victory to a nation lesser than me.
Trust me, dominion kill is very effective.
I've seen provinces with dom 10 change to my dominion in a single turn.

Re: Forge of Godhood - recruiting
 

Dom kill doesn't make an awake pretender more important. It makes high dominion more important, and high dominion synergises with bless strategies. Is it more effective to have a temple + prophet (2 checks) with dom 9 or temple + prophet + pretender with dom 6?

Re: Forge of Godhood - recruiting
 

9 dom without pretender gives 3.6 candles on average, awake 6 dom pretender gives 4.6, so it's already in favor of an awake pretender. Additionally, given the gold settings blesses won't need very high dom since they'll generally be gold or resource-limited, not holy limited, and additionally anyone that's taking an awake SC is going to want high dom for awe, so assuming a 6 on an awake pretender is highly dubious...an awake 9 dom pretender gives 6.4 candles a turn, or over 75% more dom spread than without a pretender.

Pardon my ignorance, but how does one determine who plays which race randomly? I have played on Llama server and you have to input the god for your race? Do I assume quantum_mechani will randomly assign who has what race and post the list to this link?
