Gandalf, are you able to pull the site terrain masks from the innards of the game somehow? If you could, that would be absolutely great and I could finish the site portion of the DB in a a day.

Afraid not. I cant extract data that he has variabled. I can only get the text. Descriptions, names of monsters, names of sites, names of equipment, list of forts, etc.

Added note about the special province project:
the strings file of the game can be quite useful for grepping out suggestions. Such as grepping for wolf and wolves
grep -i wol[vf] stringsDom3.txt
gets a nice list of monsters, equipment, spells and sites have something to do with wolves and which can spark some thoughts. Same with dragons, or vampires, or barbarians, or tower, or death.
