Re: Slight chance of horor mark(O really)
I am not advocating change so much as pointing out errors in the manual. At one point I think there was an effort being made to make it substantially correct.
I do think the chance of a horror mark should be removed from the Tome of High power, as the item is not that powerful, and for what you get at constr 8, it does not seem appropriate to burden it with the horror mark affliction.
But the Tome of High Power does seem to have a lower chance of horror marking a mage then the Forbidden Light and the Robe of the Magi.

Re: Slight chance of horor mark(O really)
Manual is much harder to fix than problems like typos in the game, because they'd need to do whole new print runs of it. I can ask about that, though.

All the items say "slight chance" of horror mark... yet some are definitely more likely than others.

AFAIK it means chance of a slight horror mark rather than slight chance of an horror mark...

ShrapnelGames should send a PM to all regulars on the Dominions forums and ask if they'd be interested in purchasing an updated manual for $XX.xx which includes shipping.

Re: Slight chance of horor mark(O really)
seriously... I doubt a new manual would be bought by many for a few changes.. a lot is known already.. they should just improve manual and send it with new games sold

Re: Slight chance of horor mark(O really)
I would buy a new manual that is updated to 3.17.

Re: Slight chance of horor mark(O really)
I'll by a new too if it is updated.
We should start a pool and if there is enough positive answers, then send the result to Shrapnell.
I understand that it is not a small job, and it is costy, but perhaps they'll take our asking into account.
At lesat, I think it is worth trying.
Is anyone agree ?

Re: Slight chance of horor mark(O really)
I do agree with you QXel, a new manual would have much use, I'd really like the new factions to get summaries (PD, forts...). Corrected rules and calculations would be nice too.

A few changes?? ?? You must be joking ! LOL
The changes would not only include a huge thread for typos and missing content in the manual, but all the new nations, spells and game content which have been included in the patches.
