In fact Pythium lost the ability in Dom2 : the strat move of 2 is more often than not "killed" by intervening terrain, plus the fact that a Pythium army usually doesn't comprise only nation troops- Archers come to mind  .

Re: Roads...
Fair enough, I thought there was more to the advantage that that. Sorry, I do not have the manual next to my work station, though it is tempting!

Re: Roads...
I like the idea of roads... yet don't believe its possible for this game. Excellent suggestion for Dominions_3.

Re: Roads...
I believe it's very very soon for a Dom3 ...
Let's balance more Dom2, and start with a solid base to build up the add ons of Dom3

That's where you can place your guess as for a release date of 2007 or whatever. And you might be right ! It's just a guessing contest.
