Manual and Modding
 

So, for those in the know, will the manual include modding discussion? If so, to what extent?

You'll find the commands and hints, but any actual discussion you'll find only on the forum or some fan-made websites ...

I would love to start reading the mapedit.pdf and modding.pdf for Dominions_3 while waiting for the game to arrive.
Once the game arrives it will be more difficult to choose making new content and maps over playing the game.

Ditto.

Perhaps not a bad idea. I'll see what JK thinks.

Me three. I'm already plotting for Nether lords mod.

That said, I wonder if it is possible to make unique summons ala Ice Devils.

Should be. Not sure though. Further increased moddability is one of our goals with the patches.

Re: Manual and Modding
 

I don't think it is. I haven't really looked at modding changes that closely, though, so I might've missed it.

..and we love IW for this kind of support. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/smile.gif

Any good news about having the mapedit.pdf and modding.pdf for Dominions_3 arrive early ?
