There are already many ways to use your dominions.

1) It's possible to kill an opponent with your dominions. It does happens, even in an MP game.

2) You pretender is much stronger inside his dominion: +20% hitpoints, +1 strength, +0.5 MR per candle. If you choose to use a non-combating god, your loss. Your prophet has the same benefit also. So, you can make something with a little bit more hitpoints (e.g. Golem, Icedevil, or even a Firbolg) as your prophet and send him/her/it out to kill.

3) If you use the special theme Golem cult, all your constructs will have increased hitpoint inside your dominions. Many other themes are also dependent on your dominions.

4) For Caelum (and to a lesser extent Jotun and Abysia), the temperature of the province matters a *lot*. So, your dominions is your life.

5) Many high level global rituals already work according to dominions strength.
