Tremble and Despair! Edi Finally Gets Dom3
That's right, I have finally gotten a copy of Dom3. Kaljamaha ordered our copies but the order got screwed up somehow and thus there was quite some delay before it got sorted.
Obviously, this means that I am going to suffer a massive shortage of free time as I get familiar with the game.
First order of business after a few cursory games: A slew of Faerun maps. Faerun 283 for each of the three eras, as well as a larger Faerun map with ~340-400 provinces.
And finally a whole damned Units & Equipment DB unless somebody has beaten me to the punch on that one.
There is one god thing about this, though: I can start off with v3.04 instead of suffering through the problems that were reported earlier.
I just wish the Cradle map that came with the game had been reworked for proper bordering, terrains and otehr stuff, as I love it and the included version was the first, buggiest version that had some sea provinces as plains. Tweaking that was the first thing I did.
So far, I'm liking what I see, except I hate not being able to hide researchers with tab. Can we please get that back in the next patch? Pretty please?
Oh, and for those who are interested, Kaljamaha was making some noises about redoing the Löemendor map for Dom3, so there's something else for everyone to look out for.
