Battle simulator debug commands? Easter egg?
After a long hiatus, I'm finding the time to pick up Dominions III once again. While I'm waiting for my new copy to arrive from Shrapnel, I'm playing with the demo game (partly to ensure that Dom3 runs on my new system). I've discovered that if you type "U" (capital-U) in the middle of a battle replay, you can add any type of enemy units to the opposing side. It obviously doesn't affect the outcome, but it does let you simulate some interesting battles. Does this still work in 3.14 of the full game? And does anyone know any other interesting debug commands?

Just tried it. Still works with current patch. Interesting command.

Nice. And "K" kills the units under the cursor.

Re: Battle simulator debug commands? Easter egg?
Works for me too. Very interesting. I'm not aware of any other easter eggs though. But a more full featured battle simulator would be a nice thing to have.

Re: Battle simulator debug commands? Easter egg?
You can type in numbers to summon units instead of typing in it's name. But you'd need to know it's number of course.

Max! Good to see you again! I was just thinking the other day it was a shame you weren't around any more. Hope you're well.

What the what what? Why isn't this in the "Did you know" thread?

Re: Battle simulator debug commands? Easter egg?
Perhaps no-one knew about this? I don't remember this ever having been brought up before, and I've been in here too much from the very beginning.

Re: Battle simulator debug commands? Easter egg?
Thanks, Llamabeast. I had to pull in my horns to work on my thesis. Now I've got a real job and more time on my hands than when I was in school. Seattle is pretty.
Ich, I'll mention it in the "Did you know" thread, but first I wanted to check whether it was 1.) well-known, or 2.) only in the demo.

Re: Battle simulator debug commands? Easter egg?
I've been around these forums longer than most other members... and don't remember any posts about the battle simulator. I will have to meet with Kristoffer and Gandalf(The_White) on this forgotten gem before the next full moon.
