Sounds very cool, I for one would love some EA mod nations, and this sounds very nice, looking forward to it for sure.

Well, the only problem is, I don't have a computer to actually compile it. So it's basically an act of modding masturbation, to keep myself busy in a creative, Dom3 related way. Sad, no? In the meantime, if anyone gets the urge to actually make it into a working mod, they're welcome to, and I'll continue to flesh out stats, etc. Maybe even post the occasional graphie, since I atleast have access to Windows Paint. The theory I'm working with is that, slowly but surely, even without the physical ability to write a mod from beginning to end-let alone to playtest it-I should be able to create enough information that the mod will sort of coalesce into existence.

That's not a bad idea, hopefully as you say, someone will pick it up, either way more idea are hardly ever a bad thing.

You could do an entire mod without needing to run dom3 at any point.

I wrote most of Avernum without running dom3, during my lunch break at work.

That's what I was thinking, and aside from making the mod itself look good-or very good in Sombre's case-graphics aren't all that important towards how a mod actually functions. The really fun part for me is going to be writing the layout of a dm file from memory.

Slight modification, but I'm going to be posting stats for this nation soon, and I'll reserve this space for the posting of graphics.

I've got things more or less the way I want them, but suggestions are welcome!
