In case anyone is interested in expediting the attempt to get Dominions 3 to Steam Greenlight, gohere, because Johan Karlsson asked if anyone is good at making the sort of gameplay videos of Dominions 3 they would need for that.
Given how Dom3 is not a very casual TBS, that’s actually a pretty tall order.

Hmm, actually I think you could make a pretty sweet gameplay video by cutting together strategic play/movement with some clips from some battles while having someone narrate game features along with some of the really cool music in the background that comes with the game. Unfortunately, I don’t have the skills or time to pull that off, but I think the content could fit well for those skilled at doing these sorts of things.
If someone was willing, I am sure many of us could submit turn files that we have saved over the years that someone could use to grab good content from.
wahoo

Is this abug? Scribbl’s prophet plato has 510 Hit points in a territory of mine where I have 8 candles. He should be down 80% right?
Not exactly I don’t think. Prophets and pretenders don’t lose hit points due to lowered dominion before the end of the turn (after combat). They don’t lose it all at once either, but gradually over a few turns.
Further complicating things is the fact that my prophet is a construct, with the never heals tag. I think this may result in his hp total not being subject to reduction by dominion in the same way as a normal prophet. For what it’s worth he still has 510 hit points when I look at him in the new turn now.
He’s a pretty cool unit now by the way. Base hit points is 85 but increase that by 20% for every candle in the province he is in, and increase that again by 10% for every candle due to MA Agartha’s construct-friendly dominion. Gives him 6x normal hp. Now I need to get Gift of Health going to put his hp total North of 1000, and luck out with heroic obesity or something on top of that. :)
On that note, Kill Scribble is going on holiday hiatus. I’m without access to my computer from now until New Years. Have a good holiday people - I will be back to crush everyone next year.
Merry Christmas to all my fellow Dom 3 players on QT3!
This thread has been rather quiet lately, with only one game running. I hope we get a couple of new games going after new years. Perhaps a RAND-style game?
Merry Christmas to you, too! I am about to earn the Heroic Obesity skill.

Merry Christmas to you all also!
Now all you have to do is see how long you can stay on the Hall of Fame list, Dave. See how high you can take that skill, heheh.
I think you mean how “wide”!

Ditto folks, Merry Christmas! Remember, we celebrate it earlier than you (those in the US), so trust me,I have a head start on that hall of fame.

Forgot to add…
I am still up for that RAND game we started organizing (pyhric?). I think he said he was going to look at starting it up after the 1st of the year.

This sounds perfect! I’m running low on Dom3 turns.

Since it’s a RAND game Nate, would you be ok with us both being in it?
I’m okay if you’re both in it, too.

alright, so while I think up a clever name, whoever is in on the RAND game, post a late-age, land-based, nation pick.
GameName: Middletown
Era: Late
Mods: CBM 1.94
Map: Streamlands
Estimated Start: 1/18/13 or upon mutual consent/submission
When we’ve got a feel for how many are playing, i’ll select a map, we’ll have a quick review to make sure everything is fine, and then I’ll randomly distribute the nations selected amongst those playing. Note, random is random, so you can get your own nation pick.
Timeline: aiming for nation distribution ~ jan 10, start of game +10days after distribution.
Victory conditions: possession of 4 capitals
Turns: 24hrs, quickhost for turns 1-12, 48hr quickhost 13-30, community consensus after that
If anyone feels strongly against any of these, post your thoughts and we’ll see if we have consensus
Sign Ups (nation pooled)

What’s happening with that new player multiplayer match, any more intereast?
pyrhic: I’m up for the late era RAND game. C’tis is my nation pick.
Morberis: I have a suggestion if you’re looking to get into Dom3 multiplayer. There are many different board communities now that organise the odd Dom3 game, which can make it hard to get new games going since players are spread out. Desura took over distribution of Dom3 and has a forum for the game that’s just opened. Calahan is hosting two new player games there now that are open for signup. Check them out at: http://www.desura.com/games/dominions-3-the-awakening/forum/board/multiplayer
