wigglefig Redid the language to be a little more formal (sorry Fenrir, I think it's a bit too much for a page about a game mode). Fixed some innaccuracies (freespawn is inherited by disciples, disciples can claim thrones)

 ====== Disciples======
-Disciples is Dominions 5's team game mode. In Disciples games, only one player per team will play the role of a pretender trying to rise to godhood. Others play the part of the "disciples", which have no dominion of their own (and therefore no scales), but otherwise behave independently.

-Disciples games differ in a few other ways from the default free-for-all dominion games. For example, no [[prophet]] can be appointed since the disciples replace them thematically, and players from the same team have the option to [[relinquish|exchange provinces]].

 ====Pretenders and Disciples====
-When playing a Disciples Game, the most significant difference you might find when setting up is the kind of options you will have for [[pretender-chassis|choosing your pretender chassis]]. The Pretender (i.e., the team leader) may only pick from pretender chassis with a **base dominion strength of 3 or higher**, while Disciples may only pick from pretender chassis with a **base dominion strength of 2 or lower**. Additionally, only the Pretender decides the [[bless]], [[dominion]] strength and [[scales]] that will affect the sacreds and dominion of the entire team, as well as the length of imprisonment before Pretenders/Disciples appear. Disciples emerge in roughly halfway into their Pretender's dormancy/imprisonment.((See [[pretenders]] for more details))

The Pretender has the usual 425 design points while Disciples have only 300 points to spend on their chassis and its paths.

-Besides these design quirks, Disciples are mechanically very similar to ordinary pretenders; they are only [[bless|blessed]] in friendly dominion and are recalled by priests in the case of death. They are also always able to claim thrones.
