Posting this question here since its the latest AoW III thread.  Also didn't see anything on the Steam forums, so...

I'm not interested in multiplayer, so do I have to check "Use Guest acct" every time I fire up AoWIII or is there a way to make Guest the default???  Thx...

Thx, after firing it up a few times I can see now that Guest is checked.  The check mark is so faint its kinda hard to see.  Still, it'd be nice to skip that screen altogether if I want Guest to be the default....

...and just came across an AoW3 guide in the Steam forums.  Can't vouch for anything in it since I've just gotten the game and not yet read the document, but it looks strangely like a Users Guide Strategy Guide and Walkthrough :))

...just wish it was a PDF.

I have put together a document that combines all the data from the TOME OF WONDERS by JustinMullin (from the in-game resource) and about 95% of the Age Of Wonders III Wiki in a Word and RTF file. I have one other source I want to check and then I'm done. The information is re-organized into sort of an manual rather than an encyclopedia. It includes spell data, unit stats, etc. The Word file runs about 1.6 megs at the moment. There is nothing new here, but it is all in one place in a file you can carry around or print. I would attach it here but is the file too big???

Regardless of how good a PC game may be it will always have its detractors and no matter how bad a PC game may be it will always have its fans.
