#mmegates and #mind and #beckon are not intuitively obvious to me. Anyone know what they will do?

Thank you KO, JK and everyone else involved.

#beckon is siren lure
#mind means weapon only affects things with a mind, mindless are immune
#mrnegates should be obvious to everyone: MR negates damage

Did the modding and mapmaking manuals update or did they not?

[Edratman]

EDI, both manuals did update automatically. I did not check for that feature. I was just awaiting the update the old fashioned way, via your signature.

Thank you.

[Edratman]

I see now. It is "MRnegates" that I asked about. The font used, in combination with my ancient and failing eye sight made it appear to be "MMegates".

Thanks. There was a bit of confusion on what version got updated, but it's good to hear. I expect they are the 3.18 versions instead of the 3.20 ones which are the latest drafts.

[Edratman]

They are the 3.18 version.

Thank for the heads up konming.

And of course thanks to IW and testers for giving us yet another update to dominions.

Hey, how about some loving to Abysia in next patch. Old-age really hurts them bad. And how about raise dead under sea raising undead sharks and other UW critters?
How about portable domes (ones that move around with the mage and help protect his army on the move from artillery)?

Just thought I'd throw in some things I'd like to see, though chances of them happening are somewhat slim.

Oooh, new shiny things to play with!

I've been playing with LA Atlantis in SP and the updates there sound perfect. They definitely needed something underwater. I hadn't even thought of dream resistance though.

Now I want to leave work early and go play with them
