Besides the formulas and facts provided, I kindof miss the analogy of dominion that Dom1 had. In Dom1 not only did you have the candles but you could turn on a map filter which would show the effect on the map. Neutral or no real dominion was grey. Your dominion got a whitening effect of the provinces. And anyone elses dominions showed up black.

So the areas near your capital, or your pretender, or your prophet, would often show very white. You could see the gradual greying of the "light of your god" as you moved farther away from the capital. And you could see the effect of the darkening of other dominins pushing on yours.

All of this is now reflected only by the size of the candle which I dont find nearly so informative and I dont think is as easy for new players to grasp. Anyway, the dominion power in a way refers to your "push power"

Sad and true! The terrain changes and the representation of dominions is our greatest loss. Unfortunately we couldn't find a good and simple solution to the graphical problems posed by the new maps in the old system.
