Here's my point of view;

It's really hard to protect C. Site, and almost impossible to protect it against those skilled players - so choose very carefully turn when and where you cast it. Because you can be sure, some tremor or volcano or whatever is waiting on your opponent hand, so it's enough for him just to have vision on the site on the 4th turn, to get down what you've layed all your hopes into..

And another thing;

I wouldn't recommend Xenophobia to new players, as taking out 3 domains is kinda hard also, and again; some removal will be waiting on those 3-d cards, once you'll be able to cast them, almost for sure, unless you can protect your bases well.
Definitely hardest style to play..

PS; have you really forgotten Hadarck's Fort between those 2 vision buildings? And Ivory Spire and Eye of Varexes.. ;)

It's a possible strategy. As all strategies, it has it's pros and cons. I'll update it in a sec to add words of caution.

And yes, I forgot some buildings. I ain't perfect, ya know! :-)

@ Jed. I know it's a Wiki, but I feel that it isn't in my right to go edit Keyser's work without his consent. That's just how I feel personally about Wikis... unless something is outright wrong.

Some notes:

~Don't forget epicenter as a possible 2+ vision building, though it IS a special case...
~Constables of Glorn are both cheap to obtain and easy to use for extending vision.
~About construction sites:
You may want to add that one should avoid using domain giving buildings as construction sites, because if I build a Grove as a construction site, the other player will instantly know that it was a construction site, since I did not get the domain added. This is why you can sneak things like Mogi Nests/Watchtowers/Dank Pit/Sphere of Radiance/Astridian Forum & Bazaar in as construction sites much easier! I notice new players make this mistake a lot and I gun right out for their construction site.

PROPS TO KEYSER FOR THIS GOOD WORK!
