To it seems that Dom3 doesn't really support what I would call a "scenario" or "campaign" which I accossiate mostly with single player.

I guess that roleplayed multiplayer games like the one you mention could fill the gap to a degree. But who cares what words we use, call it what you will.

Edit: But no, I don't think you should post such games it in this forum. They very clearly belong in the multiplayer section, and only there.
Sorry, I missed your post Fantomen. Yes, I agree one usually thinks of single player when it comes to scenarios, but there are of course scenarios designed for MP as well. So they are sorta both I guess. Yes, I suppose themed games, RPGs, and what have you do attempt to fill the gap.

Thanks for your post. Too bad Dom3, as you say, doesn't really support scenarios or lend itself to team games the way others might. But I am glad for the capabilities we do have and the possibilities to make these things happen, whatever form they may take.
