I discovered Dominions in the Paradox-Forum
.
There was a thread about "your desktop" and one of the guys had a Dominions 2 shortcut in his desktop and then a lot of ppl said wow Dominions 2 that's a really good game.
I then quickly looked up a review and got the demo and instantly fell in love with Dominions 2.
Before Dominions 2 i already liked fantasy strategy games a lot. I played much Lords of Magic, Heroes of Might and Magic Series, Age of Wonders Series and the old MTG game from Microprose.
For me Dominions was what Age of Wonders and HoMM should have been. Dominions is quite similiar to them but much much better because it has real variety and some really cool unique features like the upkeep free summons.
If you remember when i was a newb i complained that summons should have upkeep but meanwhile i think the dominions system is better.
Now i am really looking forward to Dominions 3.
But in the meantime i am still very content with Dominions 2
