Mages aren't supposed to benefit from a magic scale dominion in a neutral or enemy dominion. I just ran a quick test with various mage types, and for some reason - probably an oversight in the code that makes them unaffected by drain wrt research -, Master Smiths are not subject to this rule.

It seems to me like denying benefits in *neutral* dominion is unnecessary and a little weirdly punitive. Is it intended?

i.e. if it goes neutral from positive dom for the occupier, are bonuses similarly lost?

This is hardly a game destroying edge, IMHO.

If someone is willing to go to the trouble (and believe me it is a *HUGE* pain in the butt) to
micromanage their dominion drawbacks, there should be some benefit. Particularly given that benefit will be available far less than 50% of the time, as enemy dominion creep upsets the neutrality, since one dares not overpush one's own.

After all you've purged the presence of the other pretender... you're just showing a certain mercy to the exceptional local ecology.
