How does dominion killing actually work? I didn't expect it to be so effective so fast - I'm sure Oceania still had 3 provinces with candles at the end of the last turn.

Oh, and a couple of other questions just popped into my mind just then:

1 - When you use items or a special leader to bring land units underwater, do they fight with penalties? i.e. Poor Amphibious? Also, are archers and other ranged units useless underwater?

2 - Units that can regenerate have a lesser chance of receiving battlefield afflictions... but can they also heal afflictions that they have received? Is it similar to recuperation in that respect?

For the record... I had a bunch of independant tritons attack my capital, but i was fortunate enough that my pd killed them off!

Land units underwater fight at a penalty.

Regeneration does not heal affliction, recuperation does.
It does reduce your chances of getting afflictions.

It is typically a good thing to take high dominion as a water race. You likely had a very high dominion, 9 or 10. Oceania must have had a fairly low dominion 5 or so?

I think units that change shape have a chance of removing afflictions, but I am not certain of the percentage chance they have. Jaguar Warriors for example.

All of Marignon takes a momment of silence. They pray for the recently departed Mister Clacky, and that he will find redemption within the great void.

Dammit - domain kill. How embarrasing.

Suffice it to say that I didn't have nearly the domain strength that Panjang did, and hadn't hired any Bishop Fish to help out. Both were mistakes I paid for.

Is the Atlantis hero supposed to have any strengths beyond being a competent mage?

Atlantis Hero has a good summon. The Silver Orang. He also has a Death Touch attack. Similar to life for a life-but can
only be used once per battle.

He also produces 2d gems a turn. Skellies come to him in good numbers.

Sorry, I meant Oceania. I keep doing that... :-(

Oceania has a 60 hp mr 22 Basalt king with good magic paths
and a forge ability. Sort of a warrior mage. My thoughts were he should be made a prophet and with a n4 bless could likely take provinces solo right off the bat.

He has no secret abilities or summons, however. Just a very tough hero out of the box. more so if he is made a prophet.
