What is Dominions 6 - Rise of the Pantokrator?
Dominions 6 is a turn-based fantasy 4X strategy game about a pretender god leading a nation toward godhood. In matches against AI or other players, you expand across provinces, move armies, research spells, use magic items, and set plans for automated battles. Victory comes from conquering rivals, extinguishing their dominion, or claiming the Thrones of Ascension.
