_Really_ easy question.

Another "casually picked up the game" person with no manual.
At least he was mroe careful about how he asked a question.

Maybe we should make more effort to give answers as a page and paragraph of the manual.

Yeah, maybe. What's amazing is that some people gives way to suspicion by lame-looking explanations on how they got the game, lost the manual, whatever, whereas if they just wrote the question they'll had answers without any troubles ...

Ummm I think that wont work for someone like me who bought the chinese dom 3 version. The manual is a bit different from page numbers and so one. So I still would need to search a lot to find what you want me to look at...
And while I am chinese I relocated with my mother when I was a kid, so my chinese is not the best, makes it quite hard to understand something sometimes.

So yes what are these cheatcodes? I can not seem to find them!

There is a chinese translated version of this game/manual? o.O incredible.

Of course there is. Only problem is when I use a mod somethings are in chinese and some are in english, but thats not so bad.
Only a bit confusing sometimes, but not much the developers could do to change that I guess.

I wonder how many languages the game is printed in. It is amazing to me such a small company can have the game/manual printed in so many different languages.

I dont think that the cheat codes are in the manual anways.
And they arent all that easy to find either. Especially since the console got taken out. You can check this list.

In the Chinese version it's a picture of an river demon instead of an Umbral, and then a picture of an Eater of the Dead instead of a horror (I forget which one, but I don't think it was the Hunter of Heroes, and it definitely was a named horror), and then a picture of Gandalf instead of a picture of a Zyz (undead giant eagle) in the manual-which could have used more pictures overall (those are the only 3, aside from minor icons, as far as I can remember). Also, the fellow who wrote it doesn't reference a Civilization strategy guide as the ultimate strategy guide he wanted to emulate, but didn't know nearly as much about fantasy as the people who wrote the guide he references knew about history, he references Sun Tzu's the Art of War.

See? I really DID lose my manual!

Losing the Dom3 manual is a hanging offense. It is an act of Treason.

Haha, don't be afraid. :]
I mean that I am taking the disket back home with me.
Though if it will make you feel good I can take a Russian Copy online? Do they sell Russian copies? That'd really help with manual and understanding. :]

Thank you about the blessings! I kept thinking it was another 'drop-down' select, but, lo and behold, it wasn't!

I have a question regarding the manual:

It is "spiral bound" (or something like that), this means you have to flip the pages "overhead" instead of sideways like you do with a regular book?

Also, I don't know if any of you have ever read the Krush Kill and Destroy manuals, but those were written with truly fantastic humor. Is there "humor" in this manual, will I chuckle when I flip through the pages? If it will ...

Blessed be the souls of Illwinter and their offspring for a thousand generations.
