Bump.
Doesn't anyone out there besides Graeme (and btw, thanks Graeme  ) have some answers to Incognito's original questions? I've also been wondering about dome strategy, myself, and would appreciate some insights.

Typically if I put up a Dome I place them in order of free gems, but under the asumption that you have an equal # of gems and the mages to cast each and every Dome.
1.) Dome of Arcane Warding
2.) Dome of Solid Air
3.) Forest Dome
4.) Dome of Corruption (Rarely do I have it so it's Importance is factored by that)
5.) Frost Dome
6.) Dome of Flaming Death
You should note that I usually only dome 2-3 provinces in any game and I intend for them to Last or are a temporary bulwark against artillary spells. Typically under a Dome is either an Advancing Army/Supply Depot. Research Center, or Production Center.
In particular if you are fighting anyone with any real knowledge of how to use Murdering Winter or Fires from the Sky, these help you at key points.

One specific question, I've looked that description for the blood dome (Dome of Corruption), and it says that occasionally the mages inside the dome are attacked by Horrors. This sounds like a pretty expensive cost (all depending on the frequency of Horror attacks, of course) for keeping up a dome - do any MP players out there like the Dome of Corruption, and find it worth the occasional mage?

Not enough so you'd notice I have found. Though I rarely am able to put up this kind of Dome and rarely do I not spend my Blood Slaves so this is a real option.
