Back to the original sale - Dominions 3 is an excellent game.  Amazingly deep.  Runs on a ton of systems.  Graphics are primitive.
I'm still not clear on something:  Is this for the digital-download version only?

Yeah, but you have to use a 28.8 baud modem to download it and you're only allowed to play on a buff coloured 486 with DOS 6.22.

A 28.8? Do you know how fast that is? It's like twice the speed of a fax machine!
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

Well forget that then.  I was only interested if I could get a physical copy; I want that 300-page manual!

I couldn't resist at this (still high IMO) price! It comes with a PDF file of the manual. I'll put the manual on the Kindle for now and maybe print it later. God knows when I'll get around to playing it though.  ::)
