Well, I just recieved the German manual *Thanks you Anne :kosta: :tnx: :kosta: * and I'll post the German manual right away, but you'll have to wait a while for the english version (it will take me some time to translate).

The game is rather easy to get ahold of without a manual if ye ask me. I could grasp it as a 9-year old barely knowing english the first time I played, but somehow even managed to figure out how to mix creatures. If you insist, though, you can get the manual from www.the-underdogs.org.

Once you figure it out, it's no challenge with certain exploits figured out (atleast on easiest). I finished it without loosing a single monster simply by telling my generals to collect resources for traps and build them and so I finished off all the hordes by placing traps under their feet. Cheap, don't recommend it. :P

And btw. error in review, you CAN control your character in battle. Point where to go and hold a cursor key (rather strange method, though) and use mouse clicks to either attack with the mace or launch fireballs. Gotta watch it since enemy mages will teleport everyone to your area and once your character is dead, it's game over.

Correction, there is no manual at the-underdogs.org after all. Thought they had one for everything. :\

Sebatianos 12-01-2006 03:32 PM

Well, there is one here, now, thanks to Anne. At the moment it's only in German, but I got 1/3 of it translated already, so have a little patience (and trust me, I know about the home of underdogs and various other sites offering games, having manuals, posting game FAQs and hints...).

Oh, to answer the GAME SAVE question from before:

Good looks Sebatianos, now it'll be way easier :ok:

Well, I'm done for the day. Unfortunately the entire manual is not yet translated, but you can get what I got so far (it's a bit more then half). Hope it helps thus far. I don't know when I'll finish (I'm off for the weekend tomorrow), so it will probably be sometime next week. If anybody feels like finishing the translation - they're most welcome to do that.

:ot: Just a bit of professional interest:) How many languages are you working with as an interpreter/translator, Sebatianos?

There is one thing which I do remember about this game. That is that there is no point in making a perfect note of what each of the columns takes from the creatures that you place on them.

Each of the columns takes a trait/stat from the creature that you put on it. But each time you start a new game it randomises which stat is taken. Which is great from a replay-ability point but not so if you finally figure out how to make an UBER monster. Only to find that it does not work on the next game!

I also remember that Peter Molyneux once said that Dominus was one of the games that inspired him to make Dungeon Keeper. And they are a little bit similar.

No RPG Master your not the only one. It seems to be doing the same thing to me as well. I'll tweak around with D-fend and see if that helps. Could be sound related?
