There are a few minor things in other places as well that is shamelessly borrowed from other games or products. If it is a problem it shouldn't be to troublesome to fix though. I thought this wouldnt pose a problem since compared with for example VGA planets very overt ripoffs of Star Trek and Star Wars dominions is virtually unsullied by plagiaranism. |

Re: Weakest nation in Dom I
Again, I have no idea what the chances of being sued are. |

Re: Weakest nation in Dom I
The H.P. Lovecraft estate would have something to say if Wizards of the Coast tried to get uppity. All that "tentacled horror" stuff is straight out of his mythos.
I wouldn't sweat it, honestly.

Re: Weakest nation in Dom I
Notice he said estate. Lovecraft died in 1937, so it's safe to say he has prior claim.
