i would guess promille is exactly as it looks - "per thousand" - so 5 promille per dom str == 5% pop loss at dom 10...

5 per thousand = 5/1000 = 0.005

so...

0.005*10 = 0.05 = 5%

Exactly as it looks?
Can you tell me what a Sah-Rahok is just by looking at the word? (obviously, you can't, since its in hebrew).

Yeah. I wonder how smart idea it is to cram all these popkilling nations into late era.

I'm not sure where Morkilus was going with his math, but 5 per 1000 is .5 per 100 or .5%

That's not too bad. Stronger than regular death dominion, but not even as bad as CW.

.5% times dominion strength. That's very high.

Just tell the similar Ashen Empire variable, so that the non-math people have a comparison. I could calculate it, but I wouldn't know how much an impact it would have, so I quess I'm one of these no-math people. I hope it isn't as bad as Ashen Empire, myself.
