Unwise's & V'ger's Flags v1.0 is on my site. It incorporates the 5 revised flags that V'ger sent me.

Vanheim is much easier on the eyes now, as is Man. R'leyh is improved, but only slightly, and probably as good as it can get. Thanks, V'ger!

I've updated Targa's Karan and Zen's Europe map downloads on my site to include the latest corrected .map files provided by Tinkthank. Anyone already using these fine maps should grab the small .map-only downloads. The big archive files also include the updated .maps, of course, if there's anyone who hasn't yet downloaded these maps.

Wauthan's Avatar mod has been updated to Version 1.0, and is available for download from my site.

EDIT: It adds a new pretender for each nation except Abysia and Caelum.

That sounds pretty nifty. Can we get Wauthan or someone else familiar with the mod to comment a bit more on these Pretenders (as I just don't have the time to go through my screens and test out 15 different new Pretenders)?

In any case, thanks for the work - Wauthan in creating and Arryn in hosting.

Due to a problem with the hosting provider for the old domain I was using ("BL23c.com"), that domain is dead (and has been dead since THU 10 Jun 04).

I have created a replacement domain to host my site, "www.dominions-2.org". I apologize to everyone for any inconvenience my site's unavailability may have caused.

PS - I spent $100 today (twice what I paid for Dom 2) to host my site, in case anyone's curious as to what lengths some of us hard-core fans will go to ...

You spent $100 buying a domain? You were robbed.

Why didn't you get a NICE domain name that was more applicable for when you got sick and tired of Dom2, like, say, "Arryn.net"?

I did not say I spent $100 on a domain. The domain registration was free. Yep, free. $0 is even cheaper than those el-cheapo $8 ones various outfits have. The $100 is for *hosting*, with UNLIMITED space and UNLIMITED bandwidth ...

And $50 of that $100 was a one-time setup fee. The hosting is only $50/yr. Good luck finding anyone that will do it for less, and that also has a toll-free support number, plus knowledgeable & helpful people.

BTW, arryn.net, arryn.org, etc. was already taken. I checked. It's a BAD BAD habit to make assumptions, Norfy.
