It'd be nifty if sites could invoke battle enchantments -- an accursed field which cast Blood Rain would be... interesting, for instance.

Or a hellishly rare unique site with a whole-battlefield Hell Power.

That sounds cool! Though I think the effect should only occur some percent of the time. There could be a Storms site, Northern Star ... really, any BE that affects both sides equally would work.

Are there currently any sites that allow a blood mage to summon imps?

Another idea for new sites would be sites that caused your army to be attacked, intermittantly-either by succubis types, assassin types, or just small parties of raiders, so that you had to keep a tight guard, or risk having the province overrun by the locals.

Yes, Tower of the Devil's Bride. But it only causes unrest 5 so it ends up looking like a Bandit Lair, and gives just 1 imp. Devil's Den is easier to spot, because of 15 unrest, and it gives you a devil instead.

I like the idea of the insurgents province too! Hope we don't have to wait for dom4. Oh, is there an insanity-causing province? I'd like that!

How about a site increasing/decreasing dominions for its occupiers?

Another thought is a site to be used for alchemy.
Right now such an ability is quite limited.

Hmm...but that should not be a blood site.

Maybe you'd want to add a chance to receive a horror mark too. Seems like that would fit the theme when you're dealing with horrors.

You'd have to be insane to want that in a game!

vfb currently lives in said province. He really just wants his home town as a province in the game.

I was ordered to go here and find some virgins, but then I turned into a prophet somehow.
