Name: Hesalt, Illusions of Power
Author: quantum_mechani
Desc: Hesalt is a remote northern kingdom, long under the dominion of Ulm until the Malediction brought them unexpected indepedence. With the ban on magic lifted, a guild of seers known as diviners quickly came to power and acted as able advisors to the rulers of Hesalt. More recently, the arrival of exiled seraphs of Caelum has had a profound impact on the kingdom. Using illusion and subterfuge, the seraphs took control of Hesalt vitually unnoticed. With the aid of their magic, the seraphs have through conquest swifly grown the kingdom of Hesalt into a force to be reckoned with. To most of the populace, however, the only sign of the rise of the seraphs are rumors of mysterious phantoms patrolling the borders of the kingdom.

----REPLACEMENT NATIONS----

Author: Foodstamp
Desc: Replaces MA Oceania with a new nation found in the early era of Dominions 3. The name of the nation and the name of most the units come from an MMORPG called ?Dark Age of Camelot?.

Summary: Amos is the most prolific modder in the community, with 12 nations released, each of which contains a substantial quantity of new units, spells, heroes and sprites. Amos has a distinct and impressive graphical style and it would perhaps be fair to say his mods provide the most eyecandy of any on these boards. He also makes the most of the mod commands available, pioneering new kinds of units and playstyles. On top of this he has continued to support and update his various nations with improved graphics, bugfixes, balance changes and the like. Amos has something of a reputation for producing overpowered mod nations and it's true that in most cases he hasn't tried to balance to vanilla standards, instead balancing his mods against each other and focusing on fun SP play.

Summary: As the original author of this post, it feels a bit silly for me to summarise my own contributions to the mod community, so I'll keep it quick. Since joining this community I have produced a number of nations and contributed to larger modding projects while offering a little help and encouragement to other modders. I confess I am more of a modder now than a player. I continue to work largely on Warhammer Nations for Dom3 but also update my older mods from time to time.

Summary: Zepath is the modder who inspired Sombre to mod. He is well known for the outstanding graphics, attention to detail and presentation in his work. Zepath vanished after completing a number of his mods and was thought lost to the community, but recently returned and gave us an excellent Warhammer World map which is already very popular.
