Re: Bad magic site?
No you dont WANT it. But that doesnt mean it cant be used strategically.
Defense can be used to protect it without affect. If you do have to man it then man it with undead and summons.
Tax it to 200% for a quick burst of funds since you are unlikely to recruit troops there.
Use it as a choke-point. Dont take all the provinces around it if you can avoid it. Try to always move thru it without stopping there. Store armys 1 back from it, and boost defence in provinces 1 back from it. Even if an ememy camps next to it. Look weak. Let him take it then HOLD him there until he is forced to backup. Not a BIG tactic but worth adding to your list.
If raising the taxes and having huge unrest causes a bad-luck event to invade that province then DONT take it back. Force an enemy to take it and hold his big army trapped there. HAHAhahahahhaa!

In Dominions, if it looks like a killer strategy then look at it again carefully.
In Dominions, if it looks like a total waste then look at it again carefully.
