Yes those strike me as correct.

Its like in RPGs or someone learning DnD or something like that. I tell them start as Human, Fighter. Maybe even Human Barbarian. Why? Because you already know how to play human barbarian.
That way you can learn the game first, and the specialties later.

In Dom3 it would seem to me that Ulm or Man (slap head for forgetting Man) would come already filled in with much of the basic "what do I do with this" information. The units are recognizable without a history degree, the abilities are obvious, etc.

He might not win. And would feel like there is so much more they could do. But thats good. Then he moves on gradually into the fun stuff.

DejaVu on this conversation: what are the nations that the demo is limited to?
