Also, we should decide, in the event that someone DOES disappear from the game, do we pause and try and find a replacement, or just set him to AI?

Dedas can no longer play, due to something important that has come up. I will set him to AI, and host. Turns coming today...!

The new patch is out, 3.08. From what I've read, some of us upgrading, and some of us not, poses problems. There also might be problems/bugs (gasp!) with the new patch.

I'm thinking of upgrading to 3.08, but keeping a 3.06 version for MP until everything settles down. I found a post on how to do this:

"Go into your Dominions3 folder, copy/paste the dom.exe file to you desktop, rename it to 306 for example. Install 3.08 patch. Now cut/paste 306 back to where you got it from. To do your MP games remember to load the game with 306, otherwise load normally to enjoy 3.08.

DO NOT attempt to do your MP turns with 3.08 until the host has upgraded, you will crash the server and after do you turn again with 3.06. "

So do I play my turn with 3.06 or 3.08?

I vote we do our turns with 3.06, using the method outlined above.

My current time constraints keeps me only active in our MP game till at least Saturday, so I can keep 3.06 or update whenever it's convenient for everyone else here.
