Just a couple of questions for any players out there about using Dominion as a weapon. What are the general strategies associated with it? What nations are the best to use if you plan to try dominion killing? Is it possible to dominion-kill another player without resorting to traditional combat?
It is possible to kill without normal combat, but extremely rare. Most often it is just used to finish off players when you have them cornered, but they still have lots of researchers, etc., in their last few forts. Nations with mage-priests tend to often do this because it is very easy for their sieging mages to switch over dominion squishing duty. By the same token, nations with mage-priests are quite hard to dominion kill as the sieged researchers can counter preach.

Of course Marignon has a natural advantage dominion killing with inquisitors. Undead nations usually have very high dominion strength, but without preaching they cannot direct it as well. Aggressive temple building can still result in a dominion kill though.

Basically, dominion killing is not really a tactic by itself, but simply a shortcut when you are already winning and want/need to speed things up.
