Endoperez (who's modest) did some very nice modded heroes for EA Agartha.

Hi guys,

I'm 30 yrs old, from Germany and just stumbled upon this game here by chance... my last PBEM I was playing for quite some time was the great VGA Planets (3.5), but I haven't done that for a few years now.

And just browsing the web for interesting games, at a game review of another game I found a comment like "nice game, although the real hardcore fantasy strategy players will most likely prefer Dominions 3."

So I went out looking what this game was...

Dang, from there on I was caught

lol, funny story
Sometimes the best things you find, are the ones you weren't specifically looking for

So... welcome Toran!

Long time since I took a look at this thread, so welcome to everyone new! And especially to rabelais, it's always great to see veterans returning. I heartily recommend Dom3, as it kicks the pants off Dom2 in practically every area.

Welcome, Toran!

The exact opposite thing happened to me:

I went looking for Dominions, found the Disciples series of games, instead (I mistook it for Dominions-pretty game, but not quite my thing), and only finally stumbled on Dom3 by way of stumbling upon Space Empires.

Trust that it was less like an adventure, and more like a frustrating waste of time and money.

I played a bit disciples II + expansions... nice graphic and moves, but the fights were terrible/ridiculous.

Yeah I know...and sadly enough, I *think* they're the same company that did my beloved "Lords of Magic: Special Edition" Aka, the only valid successor to MoM.

I found out about it from a Mac gaming site (the long gone insidemacgames, I think). There are so few Mac games, that these sites will review anything that comes out for the Mac. I tried it, and once I got over the 1990s look of the game, I was hooked for good.
