I like the "Astral Bullets"

Just wondering: Do we not know the maximum number of players yet? And why don't more sites use those "overflow" css divs? Are they new, unpopular, or do they cause problems on certain browsers?
Thanks.

Well, in the Dominions? page the "1-14+" play means that there can be over 14 players. It varies from game to game. In Dom3 I think it is 21.

I don't know, this is the very first site I have coded from the start.

Kristoffer might mean that he is flashless on linux as a desktop, not as a server. Im not sure if I have seen any Xwindows flash development tools.

It also depends on how their server is setup. I still do daily checks on the illwinter machines and their record isnt all that good (no offense IW).

And I probably wouldnt want to push any flash from my linux server. Maybe if I saw a huge need for it I might host the flash somewhere else and link to it from Dom3Minions. But even on a low traffic site I wouldnt want to trade off the resources to feed that to multiple users at the same time from my personal server.

By the way people...
All of the things on Dom2Minions.com will be made available for Dom3 on Dom3Minions.com just as soon as I can get it working. Such as.. random maps for download created in sizes too large for most people to generate. Whatever the new limits are on map sizes and provinces I will have some available. And maybe some from that new map generator also.

Also, if anybody who has made guides or files for Dominions I or II pops here, please send me a PM or an email. I'd love to put *something* to the devoid Downloads section.

That is, if the one who's offering the serve space aproves.

Other sites always offered the downloads pretty well. I tended to offer items not covered by the other sites. Check the Dom2minions downloads (in the links section)

I pretty much hate flash. I have it blocked by default. Putting flash on a site gives it a 90% chance that I will never see any of the content.

Well I believe that everything has its pros and cons. If a site had a simple thing to say, basically an online commercial, then flash is perfect. But if it wants people to see what its offering without the sales pitch, then its a drawback. IMHO of course
