Dominions 5 has six different spells used to protect provinces from outside ritual magic by creating a magical Dome of protection to surround the province in question. These spells can be invaluable in protecting your research centers from hostile attack spells such as Seeking Arrow or Flames from the Sky. They differ in how they function but casting every dome happens in the same way.

1. Move the mage that will cast the Dome to the province you wish to protect
2. Cast the Dome spell of your choice.

Some domes are permanent upon cast, while others will have a set duration based on the amount of gems you put into the dome. The Domes stack and any previous Dome in place will not cancel any subsequent Domes cast, since the caster will be inside the first dome when casting the spell. Testing confirms this.

Inspector-like pop-ups on hover work for units, items and spells.

Some different units have the same name. You can optionally supply the unit ID to specify which one to show, as follows. You can find the unit ID in-game or in the Inspector.
