If
I understand the rulebook correctly
, it's not quite as you say.
I have a starting dom level of 5, and a God with blood #6. It is true that that would give me 6 lots of 50% chance.
But where you say " chance of raising dominion, no matter what dominion the province has", not as I read it. What I get is 6 lots of a 50% chance of
a temple check succeeding. But that is not the same as a dom increase. As per top of page 94, the temple check success in the province which has level #9 enemy dom is 50% + (5 * 5%) - (9 * 5%) == 30%. So on average I will get 3 chances of a 30% increase overall. Which is a long way from your 6 chances of a 50% increase!
