I don't vfb. No mages (or few mages) in the province I cast it in. Sometimes two - one to cast the spell, the other to destroy the lab (although I forget if I have to do that the next turn or not).



Castle DomeProvince Enemy.

So, suppose you've sent horrors, or previously horrormarked some enemies... you know he is going to hit the province.
Casting dome.. may well way more horrors than you could afford to cast directly.

its highly situational.. but where's the downside. If you cast it for 12 or 20 turns.. usually end up with magic 3.
