Re: The Dominions 3: \"Wishlist\"

Bovine (oh such an apt name) - if the current thirty-plus nation/themes have quickly bored you, I respectfully suggest that you find a game more suited to your intellect, such as DOOM3 or maybe...

Re: Most balanced game settings?

Indy strength depends a lot on whether the AI is important to you or not. If we're talking purely MP, the indy strength can be anything because it's the same for all races - lower means quicker...

Re: The Dominions 3: \"Wishlist\"

No no no no NO.

NOT "more nations and pretenders". Argh. Damn that's annoying. There are squillions of nation/theme/pretender combinations already, and the more you add, the harder everything is...

Graphicless PBEM server?

I asked this in the MP forum but it got quickly buried underneath AARs, so I'm asking it here. Simple question:

How do I run a graphicless pbem server?

For a graphicless tcp/ip server it's...

Stupid question

Can't believe I don't know this, but ...

A pretender or prophet gets plus or minus 20% hp per point of Dom, right ...

Re: Advanced Teleporting Strategy For Dummies.

Er, Jurri, I think I've spotted an error. Physical assassination (your #6) happens before movement and non-magical combat (your #3b). I can confirm this from play.

Re: Movement bug? Please review these turn files

I have to say, I have never had that problem. If I have two armies attacking a single province (which I often do), only one of two things happens:

1. I move first, and both my armies fight...

Re: Crown Map Icon

Yeah I didn't know that either - is this true on all maps, in every province with a crown??

Re: Crown Map Icon

... which is only relevant if you are playing a victory condition of amassing VPs. In the default setup you have to conquer the entire world, so the crowns are irrelevant.

Re: Multiplayer Game Setup

You can use the -q option for quickhost:

c:\etc\dom2.exe -q --tcpserver --port 1025 --postexec etc.

That should do it,

Re: storming castles

I think the OP was talking about actually taking the castle, not breaking down the walls. This can be a big problem for the tougher castles which only have a narrow entrance gate or barbican - if you...

Hi All,

One of the players in the game I'm running at the moment is moving house, so we're having to go to PBEM for a few weeks.

Re: Great game, awful name/branding

I have to say, for a long time I thought references to Dominions on c.s.i.p.g.strategic were to "Dominions: Storm Over Gift", which I think is an RTS title, and Dominions II was a sequel to that. So...

Re: Titles and Phrases for Dominions_3

I somehow missed this first time round, but the two that really made me laugh seemed to be totally passed over by everyone else:

Re: downloads

Easy Edi, the guy's only 13. I'm pretty sure I couldn't operate WinZip when I was 13.

Hey Naresh - we have the same birthday! Pity I'm 22 years older than you, that makes me feel ancient.

Re: aran.tga
