You can also donwload a rtf file in which I'm trying to include all the interesting answer about rules I found in the forum. I have tryed to mae the file as an integration of the dom2 manual, so it has the same structure as the dom2 manual

http://arrakis.unimo.it/~ligabue/dom...al_addenda.rtf

... I try to keep the file updated as much as I can

I'm also compiling a skills/abilities reference chart with the in-game information and also something from this forum ... you can look it at

http://arrakis.unimo.it/~ligabue/dom2/index.php

there is also a race description

2004-05-23 Upddated both the rtf file and the skill lists

good luck

I love this game at the same time it makes me want to drink. Anyway, here are some newby questions, I apologize if they've been covered elsewhere, but I wasn't able to find them in the forum.

1) I just got cool army 'X' stomped in a single player scenario. How do I go back a turn to change my armies orders so I can try for a better result? You know, the handy save move that every other strategy game under the sun has.

2) I just created cool mod 'X'. Where do I post it so other folks can take a look at it? Noticed that the New Mod forum on Shrapnel Games doesn't have a Dom2 thread.

3) Where can I find the preset alliances in a map? An earlier posting said that computer players can be setup at the start to have alliances with you. Where is this visible?

Before you "host" your turn, exit the game and make a backup of the save game folder. Then reenter, host, and if you don't like it, exit again and copy the backup over the the one currently in the Doms2 game folder.
About the other two questions, I wouldn't know.

From Moxx-

"Hello, gonna sound stupid again...

It has been mentioned that you can initiate diplomatic relationships with other AI nations...

Uh, how?"

Did you ever get an answer to this question? I'd like to know myself

no relationship with Ai apart blood and battles ... I have noticed that the AI (often) declare war on me some turn before attacking ... actually I think that they declare war on me as soon as they come in touch with my provinces, but I'm not sure about that

good play

PS. the diplomatic part of the game is very nice ... that the reason why so many people prefer to play in MP or PBEM games
