I don't think they were trying to be smart. In fact, I believe that may be the crux of the problem.

S'alright. I'm just cranky because I'm not sleeping well.

I expect that will improve when Dominions 3 comes out.

So you'll be sleeping well when Dominions 3 arrives... I know I'll be sleeping less upon its arrival.

Well, Dom2 was a reasonably good abbreviation, so I'd say "Dom3" should be fine...

You know, that was -exactly- what went through my head when I read that quote from him.

I anticipate little sleep and many Dom3 sprites flooding through my head in the little dreamtime I -do- get.

The chages are THAT different. There might be few new units that get abbreviated, some bless strategies might get abbreviations, etc. Also, there might be some new abbreviations or nicknames for nations whose name changes in all eras but that can be clearly distinguished. As an example, EA Kailasa, MA Bandar Log and LA Patala are all monkey nations, and they might get an abbreviation at one point or another. If you are familiar with the Dom2-spesific abbreviations, you won't have any problems.

It's Dom3, not DomIII, though. I'd rather have roman numerals, but 3 is the official number, so 3 it is.
