Default Bought Dominions 3

Greetings, everyone.

I simply wish to congratulate the developers of this rare gem, on a job well done. You've managed to do quite well, what most major development studies fail at miserably. Create a game that is immensely complex and rich in content, while still being -relatively- easy to understand and is not boring. Well done.

I must also congratulate the service I received while ordering the game as well. I've ordered it from the official store (Gamersfront.com), and it arrived 7 days later in tip top shape, without any problems. Although it might seem obvious to some, this should not be taken for granted.

Again, good work. Thank you for creating such an interesting game, and for continuing to support it.

Welcome to the forum. We hope to see you regularly around here.
And in case there is any confusion, I'm not a member of Illwinter even though I maintain the bug list and do a lot of other stuff on the forums.

As long as new multi-player games, alongside interesting discussions of the game are held, I'm not going anywhere.

Then the MP & AARs subforum is right up your alley. There's usually several worthwhile discussions on various topic going on and the Strategy Index list of links should keep you occupied for a good while.

Don't forget to check out the FAQ either.

"being -relatively- easy to understand" is something different in my opinion ;-) ... but i agree in all the other points ...

When I show the game to people, its not that they find it hard to understand. They just tend to be surprised that its not quick to understand. They are used to games where a 1 minute explanation would seem excessive and it would cover everything about the game.
Not our Dom3.

A strategy Guide for Dominions would not be a book.
It would be encyclopedias.

Ah yes, the idiot screening test: "Prove that you are able to make it past the UI. Then we may talk."

It does seem to save us from some of the users I see common in other game forums.
