Province targeted item destruction spell is way too abusable. SCs and Thugs would get trashed. Worst use: target air/water breathing items.

Clams would be the least of it's effects.

SCs and Thugs have been getting weakened since Dom I and they *still* dominate. I'd say try this out before concluding that it will be abusive.

Breathing items would indeed be a very nasty use of anti-item spells. But one of the themes of the Dominions series is that anyone can die, except Immortals in friendly dominion. As long as the chance of destroying any particular item isn't too high, I don't think it'd be that bad; the spell(s) would have their costs set to be only truly effective against large clusters of items.
