Naah... What's this I hear? Something new to test, what? Dominions? We tested that already didn't we, I think this can wait a few season. Err, weeks. I mean weeks. I mean, these Beastmen just destroyed my tula, because I had taken their leaders hostage when they threatened my clan, because I had raided a duckling village, because they didn't pay the tribute (well, my farmers wanted more land too, but that's no biggie), because I had stolen food from them when a curse had destroyed my wheat, because I couldn't trade for food due to Horse-Spawn having plundered my horses and goods when I had forgotten to re-issue patrols after raiding the Oak Trees to avenge the kidnapping of one of my clan's women, which they did because I had killed two of their hunters poaching in my area when my own hunters had a hard time catching anything because they were cursed when I broke promise I gave to a talking fox, but I had to do that because I had merged another clan to mine and we had become the largest clan on my corner of the Dragon Pass and I was forced to have more fields for feeding the newcomers next year and half of my thanes were sick because something I did had made Chalana Arroy send a curse upon me. And that's horrible!

I mean, where can I get the cows to, err, time to mourn for the dead! I'm sure the testing can wait until Storm Season, because there's so much to do now that the roads might still be open.



In other words: the demo'll have to tested inside and out, probably single- and multiplayer, and I just got to know we'll have to test it, and i just rediscovered King of Dragon Pass. Make a trickster sacrifice a few cows, that usually works. Just make sure he doesn't take foolish chances in battles.


Calm down Endo, it's ok.

Ah, so the demo won't come tomorrow [IW birthday]...I guess that I was wrong in the previous topic.

Well happy birthday!

By the way, I saw the guy second from the left fight, he is a friggin' MONSTER. His thighs are like a foot wide and every time he did a leg kick you could hear it crack.

Question- the release date for Dominions 3 is 10/02/2006. Now, does that mean it's REALLY released on 10/02/2006, or is that a tentative maybe date to be followed by another release date etc.?

Also, I preordered, and the website says it is backordered. When can I expect it to be shipped?

I agree with Kurgan, get the Windows demo out now! Since Macintosh/Linux users have systems that don't crash randomly for no apparent reason, I'm sure they won't mind throwing us tortured Windows users a bone out of mercy.

He is Mirko Filipovic aka Cro Cop. I've met with him 2 times so far in Croatia. [Some people who I know and training with know Mirko very well.] He is a great fighter indeed.

Filipovic, ya? I really liked his style, very calm and persistent. He lost the fight I saw him in by an arm lock, but you could tell he was the superior fighter.

I think I could take him if he was in a coma and was tied down securely... maybe.

Taking on the Beastmen? Ouch.

I think the ugliest game I had there was when I decided to play a 'thrallmaster' game, taking as many thralls from as many clans as possible. It was... interesting, to say the least, up to the catastrophe where an enemy raid finally beat my defense well enough to let everybody's peoples go.
