[Ragnarok-X]

okay, so here is how it got its end:

i wasnt able to defend myself, just for the record.

After another 2 turns of dominion decrease i realized there was a province with 6 ! Juggernauts at the front, which was connected to my 4 frontprovines as well.
Remember that, 6 juggernauts counterpreaching me. Really hard to come by. In the end i had 6 Priests in each of those 4 provines and wasnt able to get dominion back.

Anyway, when i saw those 6 juggers i thought: good, now i have to use my chance.

I launched a massive assault, was able to eradicate the army. Was approx 450 units, was a hard battle but i was able to win.
My dominion increased again, at least a little.

THen i massed troops of all kinds, draconians, ghosts, knights, crusher, trolls, stuff like that and made a great scale assault, was able to get like 6 provines when i realized i definitly HAD to dispel the Dark Skies.
Imagine fighting in a -10 dominion provines and your glorius knights have a morale of 3. I used 200 Astral Gems for the dispell but i didnt succed. Finally enemy armys arrived and, the low morale given, were easily able to outnumber, outgun and out-quality me.

I NEVER though of dominion as such important, but im sure i wouldnt have lost this game if i would have been able to keep an average dominion of 5-6 which isnt too hard. I will NEVER underestimate this again...
