From 25 Sep:
"Unequaled Obesity should work now."
[At least five expressions of shock and bewilderment attempt to land on my face simultaneously, resulting in multiple strained facial muscles. No permanent damage though ]
Whaaaaaat????? This makes no sense! Is it a new Hall of Fame ability that has a bizarro downside? A spell to cast on an enemy province to drain their supplies? Something stranger yet?

Hmm, wouldn't that be a Hoburg spell? I could see them gaining that ability so that Jotuns cannot throw them around like they are wont to.

That, or it could just be a "No more Midget Smasher for ya!" thing. Or something meaner.

[...shock and bewilderment...]
I pondered this one for a while too. My guess is that it is a new affliction, either caused by old age, or perhaps some magic item/ritual/site. It would be neat if it was tied to Sloth somehow. Of course it could be a strange remote attack spell or a strat move debuff, or other wierdness.

My guess is it's either a spell or an old age affliction.

"Alaw sound compression, so we can squeeze all music onto the CD."

I'm chomping at the bit here. I *loved* the music (at least that one song that played over and over and over . . .) in Dominions 2, and I can't wait to hear the new tunes (that's plural) they squeeze on the CD!
