That sounds like you think that dominion spread is limited by max dominion. Is that the case? I thought that the Dominion only limits the maximum dominion in a province, but not the dom spread, which only depends on the amount of temple checks being generated.

No, thats not what I'm thinking.
What I am saying is this:
Dominion will spread from your dominion soursces - pretender, home province, temples, etc.
As the radius of yoru empire expands, the likelihood of a dominion spread into an adjacent territory decrease by r2.
The number of dominion increases linearly, f(n) where n is a number of temples (with things like priests etc tossed in for good measure). You also have competing to dominion to consider as well.
However, my point is that your ability to project dominion over a significant percentage of the board decreases as the size of the board increases absent military (or other) actions.
