What other games complement your Dominions 3?

If you fellas have not checked out the Fall From Heaven Mod for CIV4 it is a must.Take all civilization perks and put in Fantasy setting. Magic/swords/mythical beings, you name it its there. It is a complete overhaul of the game and once you get it working it is a brand new addiction.

Fallout3 is out... There goes my social life...Look at G4 to see the reviews. Damn near killed me, a player built anything launcher firing teddy bears...

I expect Fallout3 to be really bad game. First person? MAde by Bethesda? That just cannot end well.

I dunno, I liked Daggerfall. It wasn't perfect ofcourse, but quite good for it's time. And it's my understanding that Fallout 3 will have both 1st and 3rd person perspective.

They've been committed to remaining true to the Fallout IP throughout the entire process, and have what appears to be a very clever conjunction of the traditional Fallout turn based combat, and the ability to free fire as in an FPS - if it works, it's kind of revolutionary.

Beyond that, I read an article last year and one thing that stuck out, was that they had learned a lot from Oblivion (god I hope so, eh?!), and that while still quite epic in scope, Fallout 3 would not be so large as Oblivion, so that every place means something, and all of the characters really get the attention they need in order to come to life.

I am remaining hopeful, as Fallout 3 has simply been one of the games I've wanted to see for..... 10 years now? Longer? If it all goes well, I'd even be willing to shell out a few more bucks if they ported 1 and 2 into the new engine.

I'd be willing to pay extra if they'd finish Van Buren and add it to the package. I don't think I'm alone there, either.

Has anyone ever tried the Game Room link at the top of this forum? Up there next to FAQ

If you enjoyed the setting for King of Dragon Pass, you should check out http://www.glorantha.com for the latest stuff set in that world. Most of the RuneQuest3 pen&paper rpg materials were set there as well, and might be worth looking for.

I've played in several pnp rp campaigns with Dave (the guy who wrote KoDP) and still run into him occasionally -- it's really cool to see people are still enjoying his game )

Does anybody here knows the games-workshop boardgame bloodbowl (brutal fantasy football(rugby) in the warhammer universe). There is a free client with a very cool online community called fumbbl (fumbbl.com) ... that's the only other game i'm playing ... developing your teams, playing tournament, etc ... very cool and very addictive :-)
