Well with a bit of creativity Im sure we could do better. Actually, in Dominions its abit more workable since a god CAN come back if there is some far province still worshipping them.

Exactly... it will be interesting to see how the editor has been improved.

I personally think that the ability to read .trn files would be best. Then the fans could make a better AI if they really wanted to (I would!). Illwinter needn't provide a decoding program, just say what compression programs it uses, and what its formatting is. The fans can do the rest.

I see that as pro and con. The biggest problem being that most of the pros are on the side of solo play and most of the cons on the side of multi play

I still play Dominions 2. singleplayer on my laptop when I am on my way to somewhere. I really enjoy it. Well yes the AI could be better, but some things will be fixed in Dominions 3. I think the fans could do AI fixes if Illwinter could support it somehow...well not me, I don't know programming, but some people surely could help to the devs.

If you know the trn and 2h formats, you could write an AI and also write a cheat-detector
