(But of course it would be awesome :p )

Bear in mind, as it is in MTW2, you can end up with 20 unit types on the field at once. The vast majority of Dom3 battles see less than that, in an individual fight. Obviously the engine would need to be robust though, and be highly scalable to allow people to operate at lower settings and still enjoy the game.

Of course, converting all of the graphics would be a chore, but I'm pretty sure that CA would devote a talented team to making this a reality, if only they could settle on a deal with Illwinter. I will start the bidding at US1$mil. ;)

Hey, as long as it's not my money, let's make it a cool US2$mil. One for each dev.

As you all folks remember, every 6 months or so I do a desperate plea for a new Dominions. I was wondering if something has happened on this front? Do we have a movement? Has the devs changed their minds? Can we perhaps preorder a Dominions 4? Can we perhaps help somehow to get the ball rolling?

Havn't we, the people who play this game, come to the point where we are to say: WE NEED A NEW GAME ENGINE? :D

I'm perfectly happy with Dom 3!

Not really, no. I'm happy with dom3 and I think there's still a LOT that can be done with it.

I suppose an analogy would be trying to upgrade the game of chess. I think if u play dom3 only singleplayer mode then you may hanker for an upgrade, but for playing other people in a fantasy turn based setting its fine as it is.

+ i like it when its playable on my laptop, netbook, granpa's old 3rd hand pc and my pc at work :p

I'm happy with Dominions 3 too, but I would like to see Dominions 4 one day unless they turn it 3D which would make it total crap IMO.

yeah, 3D would probably equal downward modding spiral aka VERY BAD THING!
