Believe me when I say that this is possibly the largest, most detailed, and feature-packed strategy game to be developed in the past 10 years.

There's going to be a lot of bad "LOL, more like Dominions 2.5!" jokes flying around. But there are enough "under the hood" changes here to merit the full bump from II to III. This is no fancy mod, it's Dominions III. Time for the king to show everyone how turn-based multiplayer is done.

Be sure to pick up the September issue of Computer Games magazine to read Troy S. Goodfellow's impressions of the "artistic overhaul" of Dominions 3.

Fans of Dominions 2 will rejoice at the coming of this long-awaited sequel, which contains many new features while still keeping the same atmosphere. People who are looking for something that will work the brain instead of the fingers should definitely take a look at this massive yet fun game. I can't wait for the final version to be released; I can't stop playing the preview version I have and it will be the same for the final version. I keep saying one more turn and then I notice a few hours have passed!

Heh, I think the level of comment here about one forum post by an unknown poster mainly shows how much Dominions fans like what this game series offers that others don't.

The new ages and nations and all the work that involves certainly constitute at least as much new story content as one finds in the likes of a scripted Disciples campaign.

And the graphics improvements may not be obvious to everyone, but there is a ton of new and improved graphics compared to Dom 2... it's just new and better 2d 2-frame sprites, though, but I'd sure rather have orders of magnitude more new units and use my imagination, than have a few 3D animated units.
