Re: Available by Digital Download?

FWIW Digital River has a good download service. Matrix Games uses them and I've never had a download problem.

Re: Available by Digital Download?

Good idea. I looked there as well before asking. Hopefully this will be available as a download some day.

Re: We Need Another Patch For SE IV.

I got way more than my moneys worth out of SE IV. Sure I'd like to see another patch, but not if SE V is delayed because of it. Since Malfador is a one man shop it's probably one or the other.

Re: I dunno, guys...

I bought Dominions II, but not Dominions I. It never grew on me, probably for most of the reasons Fyron mentions above. It's not a bad game, it just never worked for me.

Not sure if someone thought of that already as I don't have time to read this whole thread.

Re: Battle question?

You can indirectly control your commanders and troops with fairly detailed orders given prior to a battle. However as HJ says, once it starts you are a spectator only.

Re: A question and a suggestion

According to the manual the size of the armies will determine whether they miss each other or fight.

Can\'t sneak

Can anyone think of a resaon why my scout can't sneak into two of the five adjacent provices but can sneak into the other three? All are land provinces. Playing the full game, not the demo. Thanks.

IMHO it's better to leave some things unknown. The Last thing we want is to turn this game into an accountants wet dream. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/shock.gif

One disappointment though was when I put a mounted...
