So your own pretender will be diseased by his own dominion if he isn't cold blooded?!

I was just trying out a non coldblooded pretender and he got diseased about 8 turns into the game. Is that just a coincidence? I did start in a swampy area.

No coincidence, I think. The rule says : all non coolblooded get diseased. That implies your pretender, indep troops but also, how fun, most of indep mages.

I think it excludes mages with swamp survival, however.
And if you have a lowish dominion, you can counter with your powerful priests and _sort-of_ pick and choose where your dominion is strong.

Even with 3 dominion, your priests can raise to 5 or 7 or so.

You need to be either colblooded or have swamp survival.

Or be undead - you will get diseased but it won't have any effect.

Does poision resist help any?

If not, there are still rings of regeneration for those indie mages you MUST have. I haven't tried it, but I've heard that mostly counters the disease.

I'm about 90% sure that poison resistance does not help.
