Indeed.
That third screenshot is also excellent. A Ghost King named Nerfix is casting Streams from Hades! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

*chuckle* Excellent preview. I hope it'll garner some additional traffic here on the site. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Umm - you _do_ realize that undead Ermor has _always_ had a spell to do that?

Hey Annette,
In order to get some addendum articles and boosted press you should send ALL of the places that did a review a copy of the manual. Let them write about the tutorial, and the manual, and how much its going to improve the game (and maybe a few of the early ones will correct some of their misconceptions)

Re: Previews!
 

Yes, they'll get the printed manual plus the final version of the game. What previewers were given was pre-gold beta.

Re: Previews!
 

So what do you guys think of this comment?
Granted, it's posted over at Wargamer which is owned by the same interests who own a competing publisher.

Re: Previews!
 

To some, only a serious upgrade to the graphics engine would make Dom3 anything other than Dom2.5. I'd bet my copy of Dom3 that many of the same people would have whined about "Civ3.5" if Civ4 had used the same graphics engine as Civ3, regardless of the gameplay changes.

Re: Previews!
 

Yes thats a strange comment. The game more than tripled. Plus added tons of solo-player support (finally). And rewrites for things that we couldnt get patched into Dom2 (like AIs). I added a comment there.

Its as GP1628 is my usual login on systems since Gandalf is usually not allowed. GP1628 is my Internic ID in the whois database (old internet official white-pages)

Re: Previews!
 

It's not that strange a comment. Something very similar has been said in here as well. I disagree, and try to argue against such comments, but as long as others are seeing only new units and creatures and variables it's hard to comprehend how much has changed.
