An idea for stronger use of "dominion"

Well in MP Dominion is still very key. In defensive territories if used with the right troops (mainly Pretender, Prophet and SC's) you can cause the advance into your domain to be really painful.

That particular dynamic I don't believe needs to be adjusted as much as map movement and passing through to attack back territories and everything akin to that.

Well, since I am one of the few players (it seems) that doesn't like to use an "SC" Pretender, my guy only goes out of town to go jewel hunting on occassion.

However, I fully agree with you that a player who did use an SC with prophet and used a destructive domain the combo is pretty strong already and such a strategy certainly needs no more "help"

So, again, VERY hard to balance this stuff.

Due to this fact, it is probably true that the system is fine as it is and the way to please players like me is to have a few more themes like Miasma that help defensive play (or at least make it remotely viable).
