Web interface
We have some way smart gamers here.
Why can't someone make a web interface that will
1. Open a turn file.
2. Allow you to review your turn
3. Generate a .2h file?
Make it require a CD key to protect Johan et.al.
But the ability to submit a turn from anywhere would sure make turn deadlines easeier..

Re: Web interface
You mean a web program that doesnt use the dom.exe to create a turn? Wouldnt that require basically creating another version of the entire game?
We have had some efforts at creating a webpage that can handle the upload and download of the files, but it always went to the dom.exe for the handling in-between.

Re: Web interface
If you are away often you could probably install Dominions on an USB Stick and play the game from there.

I used to have a copy of my Dom installation on my USB stick. Works fine.

Cool idea. I'd be interested to try this when you have a first version finished.
