Default Manual and Modding

So, for those in the know, will the manual include modding discussion? If so, to what extent?

/programs/dominions3/doc/modding.pdf

You'll find the commands and hints, but any actual discussion you'll find only on the forum or some fan-made websites ...

I would love to start reading the mapedit.pdf and modding.pdf for Dominions_3 while waiting for the game to arrive.
Once the game arrives it will be more difficult to choose making new content and maps over playing the game.

Perhaps not a bad idea. I'll see what JK thinks.

Me three. I'm already plotting for Nether lords mod.

That said, I wonder if it is possible to make unique summons ala Ice Devils.

Should be. Not sure though. Further increased moddability is one of our goals with the patches.

I don't think it is. I haven't really looked at modding changes that closely, though, so I might've missed it.

Any good news about having the mapedit.pdf and modding.pdf for Dominions_3 arrive early ?
