Mine is a bit dog-eared as well. It would be cool to be able to purchase an updated manual with all the new stuff added in.

How in the name of Kurgi do you guys get your manuals chewed up and worn out? With Dom2, the first thing I did was strengthen the manual with adhesive, transparent plastic. Increases lifetime by 10x. With Dom3, I basically checked the tables, checked a couple of formulas and put the thing aside. If I need to open that thing, there is a Situation.

Of course, I've played Dominions since DomPPP, so I know most stuff from memory and making the DB has sort of helped remember what belongs where.

That ring ended up tearing the pages apart until I rebent it. With the back cover already weakened, it came off early. I'm taking more care with it now. I still have the index, front cover, and hotkeys, but I'm not traveling with it anymore.

First time player to dominions (aside from overwhelming dom2 demo), and frantic-quiet-frantic job pacing gives me a lot of downtime. I have confidence that the manual will stay together now that I'm doing that 'shelfed' thing you're doing, Edi. But how? The easy answer is, we're using it. And reading regularly. Not just using as a reference.

You should see my SFB rulebooks! I had to buy second copies of the main books due to the wear and tear of looking up all those rules over and over.

Don't get to play it much anymore though.
