thanks. I wasn't sure if mindblast would count as ranged attack or as a spell.

Do animals (with minds) count as a normal unit for defending forts or besieging purposes?

I successfully used several hundred wolves to hold a fort against hundreds of blood thirsty Ulmites.

So I guess they do.

Yes.

There is one (1) animal unit which gets a siege penalty, the Black Hawk, where they lose the normal +1 siege value flying units usually get and instead rely on their (garbage) strength.

Everything else sieges and defends as normal, if not better.

I thought mindless units have 1/10 siege defense.
What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I’ve been involved in secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my words. You think you can get away with saying shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your tongue. You didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.

Mindless do get a siege defense penalty, but most animals are not mindless.

LA Mictlan question. Does the pretenders Dom serve any purpose for this nation or is it wasted points?

Yeah you absolutely need lots of dominion to pump out jaguars. Also while your dominion doesn't spread on its own I'm pretty sure that dom strength does have an effect on how powerful your blood sacrificing is.

Blood sacrifice produces temple checks, which are dependent on your pretender's maximum dominion strength to successfully reduce enemy dominion, as per manual page 106.

In addition, it's unclear in the manual (page 105) whether or not temple checks from non-temple sources are subject to the following:
"The chance of your dominion increasing in a province or spreading to an adjacent province partly depends on your god's initial dominion, which you specified when you created your pretender. The chance is 10% multiplied by your god's maximum dominion."

However I believe that it's likely, based on anecdotal (and therefore not-necessarily reliable) evidence, that all sources of temple checks are subject to the above rule.

"should only ever buff UP stuff to make it competitve with OP stuff" is a pretty bollocks idea on which to base a gameplay mod around.

As long as they don't eat it's still more bodies to add to the defense. OTOH, it's more common to use really cheap chaff like free summon undead.
