Re: What other games complement your Dominions 3?
Continuum is still alive?
I played it quite a lot in ancient history, but when I tried going back to it I couldn't find a server with a playable amount of people on it.
As for the games I'm playing right now:
Dwarf Fortress
Grim Fandango (I was surprised to find it does work on XP, because last time I tried, it didn't. [maybe it was SP1 vs SP2?])
Civ IV
BTW, there was a "favorite games" thread a while back, so that might also prove an interesting related read.

Re: What other games complement your Dominions 3?
Ok, just to be different...
SEV (YEAH! TAKE THAT...really though I don't/didn't play IV enough to notice any differences, or rather any stiking ones..)
CivIV+Fall from heaven mod i.e masters of magic in civ...
Don't hate me for this one...it's my second guilty pleasure...
Sims...
OH GOD THE SHAME!
(first guilty pleasure is dynasty/samurai warriors.)
Oh, abit of City of Heroes too atm, and the odd game of age of wonders 2 shadow magic.

Re: What other games complement your Dominions 3?
Armaggedon Empires best indie game of last year.
Except that I mostly play oldies, good old hex wargames (WinSPWW2, Fantasy General), and 4x like MoM/MoO.
No MMO since I've stopped EQ and WoW. I was tempted by AoC but system requ are too high.

Re: What other games complement your Dominions 3?
NWN, Hordes of the underdark, Truth is it got quite boring towards the 3rd expansion but I want to complete it (like reading a book with a slow ending, seems to drag on forever)
GC-II, I'm trying to complete the first campaign but damn dominions always gets in the way 
I've some newer flashier games on my shelf, all shiny new and hardly touched. I hope to get to them sometime soon, but my dominions condition makes chances of that slimmer every day.
When stardocks new FTBS game is out I promise (to myself) I will give it a serious try. |

I tried the demo as I loved the theme on this but found even a minor battle just takes too long. It was like a clickfest but in turn based mode. Maybe I was missing something on the UI but I gave it up when my fingers started cramping up...

Re: What other games complement your Dominions 3?
I find Sword of the Stars compliments it quite nicely. They're similar in some ways, very different in others, and between them cover all my turn based strategy needs in both scifi and fantasy.

Re: What other games complement your Dominions 3?
I wouldnt mind StarDock doing one. They might do it right.
Too many of the clones tried to make it multiplayer.

StarChamber. Much better than Poxnora IMO.
