What other games complement your Dominions 3?

Yeah, I recall there being some difference between the European version and the US version though.

Asian version is still the best apparently, but it's in Japanese and Chinese...

Still I think the DtD was fairly cheap, and it has a ton of scenerios and different factions to suit most difficulty levels.

Tnx Duncan, I've given a look around and seems that they have even a forum now, thing that Vic didn't put up for a quite long time, so I could eventually solve there my questions on which boni (or bonuses, whatever ) are cumulative and which are not, and which is the difference between the Consume and the Flesh tactic cards of the Xenopods...

I'll still gladly wait another bit hoping for an eventual price reduction, the game starts becoming a little old and while I like to support indie developers 30$ seems still a bit too much for it

To the people who are promoting MOO3 - I'd love to play a Moo game again but MOO3 seemed crippled by a handful of really serious problems. The foremost, in my opinion, was the inability to even detect the composition of enemy fleets in other systems. Has that been fixed?

You can see what the mission of the taskforces are in any system which you have previously visited. i.e SR LR IF etc, but you cant see individually what gear is on the ships. No biggie really, if you know what tech they have you can make an educated guess as to what weapons you will face.

Double click on the system - check the right hand column- there are two tabs, one of them tells you the taskforces currently in the system. (just in case you didn't know.. )

And there are no serious problems left - its a different game matie!

Currently I'm playing Medieval: Total War 2 with the "stainless steel" mod. Playing with templars is awesome, althought dangereous, especially now that I crusaded Cairo...

@ Baalz - I'd bet from your playing style as it appears from your Dom3 guides, that in AE you're a master in doing things like... using those extremely niche "air assault units" to drop on the back of enemies armies to cut their supply lines, and then attack them in the out of supply malus with a few optimal cost-efficiency-wise minimalistic outfitted units all in one round (me and my friend are for now stucked with the "build a big army and smash them" and sometimes "build a big nuke bomb for aircraft and smash them" )

Haha, cleverly outmaneuvering the AI has a bit of a stale feel. What good is it to crush your enemies if you can't hear the lamentations of their women? That's exactly a great example of why I wish that game had MP, there's a lot of fun potential things which I wouldn't really enjoy without picturing my opponent shaking his fist at his screen.

Jim-

If you are having the error after loading a certain mod post in the thread for that mod and I think you will get help fairly quickly.

I recall having this issue as well, but unfortunately do not remember the solution provided for me to fix it. Though I was able to fix it.

I think it may have had something to do with missing .dll files specific to the mod, but that may have been something else I encountered back when I was fooling around with the mods.

For what it's worth, I have it running smoothly on XP.

I got the mod pack from the MoO3 Guardian, and their downloads are separate from their forums. They also seem to be completely clueless on the DirectX Surface errors, stating that it's a catchall generic error message that MoO gives, and that it sucks to be me (or anyone getting the error).

All I was wondering, was if it seems to be a common problem with this pack, and/or if you had seen any mention as to an actual fix for the problem.

The thing is, the other mod pack installs differently, so I just reasoned that if there doesn't seem to be a prevalent problem, that the pack that you've linked to is simply put together better.

Ahh you're at the wrong forums then...

And then this thread

For what is probably the best (and best supported) modpack.
