What do you get when you mix insomnia and creative writing block? I have started trying to write a guide of sorts for Dominions, and would like to get some feedback, on either the contents or the presentation (clarity...). The draft can be browsed on a temporary site, available
here . As you will notice soon, I have a "keep it simple stupid" approach to web designing... either that, or I flunked arts at kindergarten.
Disclaimer: this guide is not intended to deal with strategy, but simply tries to explain the ropes of the game. It is definitively not the most effective setup for Arcoscephale, especially in multiplayer, but it should be a worthwhile stepping stone.
The current savegame has only be checked with the demo: it may work with the full game without resulting in bogus battle reports, but I haven't checked that yet. I will either put up some savegames for the full game at a later date, or I will come up with another quickstart, this time dedicated to the full game.
The whole guide is currently planned to have a couple more chapters, dealing with Pretender creation, the economy, magic, and units... or something to that effect. It may even be finished before someone casts Burden of Time, Utterdark and Illwinter, but you shouldn't quote me on that.
