And a VQ that's out on the borders of the empire thumping indies and kicking *** is not going to be sitting around in a dominion-10 province most of the time. Furthermore, a vampire in the occupied province every other turn tends to result in a trail of little vampires with no master. A single vampire lying around with no way to get home until somebody comes along and kills it, sending it back to the capitol, is hardly a real threat: A VQ that sits around spawning mini-vampires in the comfort of a 10-dominion zone is one that is not having much effect on you.

Well, to use your other example, you probably wouldn't want to park a PoD in a dominion-10 province for very long either, would you? At least the VQ's fodder can fly at the same speed as her. The PoD just leaves a bunch of leaderless skeletons in his wake.
