Europe Universalis: Rome looks like something I would enjoy playing.
I was playing around with ideas for a game that I wanted to design when I found Dominions. Dominions came so close to what I wanted to do that I found myself playing it instead of pursuing my own gaming project. There are still many elements that it seems will never come to Dom (like external, script-able AI) so I have begun picking at my old project again. My point is that this is a perfectly reasonable request. Who knows, there might be a programmer out there with skill (unlike myself
) who might be inspired.
