It would seem that, though the turns are simultaneous, the battles are commanded personally, rather than dominion's hands-off approach.

Other points are that it uses hexes, not Dom's randomly shaped areas. Finally, it seems to have a larger emphasis on the squad part of the game than dominions.

It does look good, however. I am looking forward to more news on it!

Actualyl no, this game reminds me of City States: Stone to Steel. I think the dev "stole" the idea from there. That game was cancalled like 2 years ago sadly.

Isn't that the neo pangaea map in the images?

IIRC the author has made many fan contributions to dom.

Did Jasper use the nickname 'Sunray' or Sunraybe'? That was the first thought that popped to my mind about his name, but it doesn't seem to be so.

It must be something of his last name, then. Jasper's surname of Phillips is similar to the Sunray's e-mail, and probably to his name if the e-mail comes from his name.

Hi there. I never used another nickname (_be is for Belgium, since "Sunray" alone was used already on other forums). But my account here was erased some months ago, don't know why, an accident probably...
Cheers
