Re: Avoiding domkills?
There are a number of reasons that doesn't work. One should be fairly obvious - preaching can only raise dominion up to a certain level. With h3 preachers that's 6. Blood saccers aren't limited to this, they can go all the way up. Higher levels of dominion are more difficult to erode than lower levels of dominion. It takes a LOT of preachers to do anything like fighting off heavy dominion sacrifice. Each slave sacrificed is worth two temple checks. That means if one h3 priest is sacrificing, his province is generating 7 temple checks per turn. Now make that 10 h3 saccers and you have to have an insane number of priests to make even a dent in that. It's just not feasible. And this is why blood sacrifice and killing the other guy are the only reasonable options.
