-Magic comes in two main forms: combat magic and ritual magic. Ritual magic is concerned with the casting of grand spells - think esoteric magic circles, weeks of mystical chanting, and the sacrifice of magic resources (or slaves!) in return for a tremendous effect. These are the spells that you cast on the strategic map of Dominions 5 and play a major role in almost every nation's toolkit.+[[Magic]] comes in two main forms: [[combat magic]] and ritual magic.

 +Many rituals are constrained either by the terrain they can be cast in, or by the terrain they can target. Usually this restriction takes the form of not being able to target or cast ritual spells in underwater provinces (ex: ??Cloud Trapeze??), but sometimes a ritual is only able to be cast in a wasteland (ex: ??Scapegoats?? ) or other land terrain type.
