And according to your rules, they could be even if they don't!

Sounds good so far. So lemme get this straight, if I take "Battle" as a minor domain, then I won't operate at a 75% efficiency in the major domain? (They're seperate items on the list, but really the same thing.) But I'd still have to sacrifice a DRP to get it obviously.

And damn...haha, I was seriously considering sending people to destroy every artefact they could lay their hands on. Now its pointless. :)

I gotta say that every game is getting better and better. I think we should try play this one twice as long. :D And I'm sure a few people will drop out...they always do. :D

I can't wait.

Similar but different. Battle is a more intimate fight, one on one action, or many of many. I see a god of battle more as a god of individual prowess, a god of warriors and knights etc.

War on the other hand is large scale, many lives lost, tactics and strategy. A god of war would care less for the individual and more for the general carnage and such like

But yeah, both are pretty close. I jsut thought Id put my two cents in

Certainly as close as storm and weather. :D

My main point was that they're complementary, and would I suffer penalties or bonuses by having it as a minor domain?

They would complement each other, like Storm and Weather would.

Now that I've got my spreadsheet done, here are some trends I've noticed.

--Eight Unaligned Gods, Four Sunset, Four Sunrise.
--Three Earth domain users, Four water, Three fire, One air and Six aether
--The domains that could make the most obvious damage (war, mutation, etc...) are unaligned with the exception of Crime who belongs to Sunset.

I counted ten unaligned deities - Aarklar, Anaya, Brid, Calais, Etzicoatl, The Aesthete, The Void, uKulwa, Argothoth's deity and Queeaqueg's deity - and Anaya, The Aesthete Prince, Argothoth and Queeaqueg haven't stated that they're unaligned, they just haven't decided yet.

I also only got three Water domains since The Aesthete Prince is no longer the God of Mutation, and five Aether, although I'm guess you're counting Queeaqueg as God of Malice.

Man I'm a geek.
You do not hear, and so you cannot be redeemed.

In the name of their ancient pride and humiliation, they had made commitments with no possible outcome except bereavement.

Yeah, untill they decide something, I was going to keep them in Unaligned. It simplifies things for my sheet. :D
