Semi-random-map test game - STARTED

Maybe it's just me, but is anyone else having a weird bug on this map/game? I haven't encountered it anywhere else.

Sometimes when I hit Esc to leave a window (or maybe hit it one too many times), everything except the map itself disappears. From then on, hitting Esc just switches back and forth between the map and the wood-panel background. The only way to get out of it seems to be force-quitting and reopening Dominions.

"You call those demons? I'll show you demons."

The forces of Lanka have fallen on their weaker cousins the Yomi in a bloody confrontation which left many slain. Our band of Palankasha are just too much for the lightly armored Yomi, and after cutting through their masses like a buzzsaw, they surrounded the huge Dai Oni and chopped him into 77 pieces.

Yomi flesh is inedible, but the human bandits which serve them are quite tasty when braised in a light wine sauce. We hunger for more (we do so tire of monkey), and know where you keep them. Expect guests for dinner in your home province shortly.

Your "victory," if such it was, was pyrhic. Not only did you fail to take the province, but you were left with naught more than a half dozen palankasha.

The aggressive humans of T'ien Ch'i are finally pressing towards the home of the peaceful Agarthans... the rest of the world should beware, if they succeed, they will have all of the side island to themselves to grow and fortify and crush the rest of the world at their leisure!

Peaceful Agarthans??? The people of Arnbeg province simply begged us to come to their rescue, and we could no longer ignore their piteous pleas for assistance. We are merely civilizing this island (and along the way removing these last few holdouts of cavemen we continue to find here and there), for the purposes of making one grand nation of scholars and academics. We have no notions of "crushing the world", that would disturb the meditations of our elderly Celestial Masters - such things are not even conceivable!

Do not spread your lies across this world like you have your armies! You could have had half of our island to your peaceful expansion, but instead you chose to storm down my peninsula in search of war.

We hear your chattering armies outside our gates, but we are not beaten yet. You may try to cloak your aggression in evasive little human words, but it will not go unpunished!

Ah the nattering of cavemen - does anyone wonder why we took it upon ourselves to civilize this island?
