Default Re: Dominion Push

They may have meant that its often not a workable tactic against experienced human players in a multiplayer game. Altho even then I dont know if Id agree except maybe on small blitz-type maps.

Also keep in mind that even if you dont KILL a god by dominion it can often be quite helpful to push the dominion down. Taking down the extra boosts that a god and prophet gets from dominion can be very important if they have a super combatant god.

The tactic is kindof "built in" to certain nations. In discussions of balance Kristoffer often made an effort to point out that a nation had stealth priests. And some nations have stealth preaching on units which are vastly multi-purpose, so you dont have to spend gold on just that one tactic. For instance, the Centaur leaders of Pangaea can lead a large and capable stealth force on their way to doing stealth preaching.

Does CBM change the effectiveness of stealth preaching?
