Hm....true, lets move blessings under God design/Paths of Magic.
I've also moved "Things to Know" above Nations.

*Shrugs*

DrBob, please fix what you've made. You removed General Magic infos and the text from it is on the top of the main page.
I would do it, but I must go really fast.

Go for it! In about two weeks, you'll get the manual. At that point, I think the manual will be plain better than your wiki, but eventually you should be able to better it with sheer quantity on material. Eventually. Perhaps after a year or so.

The manual might be better than the wiki, but one thing the wiki can do is offer two things:

#1 Demo players can have a little insight on what to expect from the full version.

#2 A link from the true Dom3 wiki page will mean people curious about the game who have never even played the demo will have a lot of intruiging info at their tips. I've found that strategy gamers love to read about the details of a game, and this could get them hooked.

Anyway, I'm not good at starting wikis, but I like editing them. Whenever someone gets the chance, Dom3 needs its wiki on wikipedia typed up. The DomII wiki might make a good example.

This is new to me. Is this in Dom2, or is this a new feature?

On the topic of the Wiki, it's probably good to stick to it as a strategy guide instead of trying to create an online manual. General information is okay, especially for n00bz, but as an overall goal, it might be good to try to make it a general repository for strictly strategic information. I like the idea of going through nation/God creation and the first few turns, as this will usually determine where you will end up later on. But we should in no way have an entry for every spell, magic item, unit...

That said, of course I don't even have the game, but would hope that some of the Dom2 experience carries over. If we can get some good topics about specific strategies, perhaps some of the beta testers wouldn't mind checking it out.

Agreed. Although, I do think we should include stuff that isn't in the manual, but could have been, such as numerology.

Besides, this could make some Strategywiki people interested in Dominions 3...

Morkilus, it has been like that ever since Dom1
