I'm sorry if this has been asked and addressed elsewhere on in the forums, but here goes:

I started playing the demo the other day (no experience what-so-ever with DOM I). So I followed the, very brief, quick start. Shortly after starting, an earthquake destroyed my temple.

Is it a limitation of the demo that I can't build a temple? Every unit only had the option to destroy the two buildings in the province. Or do I need a priest in order to build a temple (which would seem silly to me, that'd be like saying the only way to build a college would be to have a college-educated person when there are no colleges yet )?

Anyway, I appreciate whatever help there is to be had on the question.

Yep need a priest to build a temple and a mage to build a lab. Though your pretender should be able to build a temple, I don't know why they are not allowed to (at least in Dom1 this was the case).

Earthquake on the first turn really sucks, I got it too, and if not for the fact that I had recruited a priest I would have been unable to build any temples ever!
