		There are 6 now. 
 
To create a button for going directly to the game..... 
 
Right-click your Dom2 shortcut on your desktop 
choose copy 
 
right-click a blank spot on your desktop 
choose paste 
 
right-click the new shortcut 
choose properties 
 
Change the "target" line to be  
"C:\Program Files\dominions2\dom2.exe" -waif --tcpclient --ipadr 209.157.135.121 --port 10000 
 
Change the icon to something else. Change the title of the icon to something like Dom2GAME if you wish 
 
read the doc file for "Command Line Switches" and see what other things could be put there instead of w a i f (windowed, no animated backgrounds, no intro, no fades) such as maybe adding m for no music and x for fast graphics. It will only be for this game and will not affect your default settings when you use your original icon to play your other games. My button now has  -mwaifx

 You can start the game and then set it to be computer run.

 Might not be password protected. Someone could try picking up the file and marking the turn done. Or flagging it computer run so there is an AI in the game 
 
Or you could boot him

 Actually you password protect your god. Its your god-file that creates your nation when you start a game.  
 
When you make a pretender there is Magic, Domain, Castle, and Set Password
