Sounds like a fun plan! But I've still been unable to get a Vastness out of the void gate. It's turn 30 already. Does the dominion level have an effect? I only have Dom 5 on my capital.
I won't mind losing a prophet, I've got lots
. But it seems only the 'real' prophet spreads dominion by merely existing, all my other prophets have to preach. Is that right? Conversion Rates showed "Prophet 0" when my real prophet died, even though I had 4 or 5 crazy prophets wandering around.
