I singed up. 

What Age are we doing, so we can narrow down our Faction choices?

Another thread has been posted looking for players.
Slow game of Dom 3

This is a slow paced game to accomodate those with busy lives but still with a desire to play. Who is interested? Sign up there!

Bumpdate: the fast game appears to be closed, but the slow (5-day turnaround) game still has some slots!
ICEBREAKER THESIS CHRONOLOGY! -- Victor Suvorov's Stalin Grand Strategy theory, in lots and lots of chronological order...
Dawn of Armageddon -- narrative AAR for Dawn of War: Soulstorm: Ultimate Apocalypse
Survive Harder! -- Two season narrative AAR, an Amazon Blood Bowl career.
PanzOrc Corpz Generals -- Fantasy Wars narrative AAR, half a combined campaign.
Khazâd du-bekâr! -- narrative dwarf AAR for LotR BfME2 RotWK campaign.
RobO Q Campaign Generator -- archived classic CMBB/CMAK tool!

I have a question that perhaps someone here can easily answer:

Where does it indicate who you're at war with??   

I see the messages saying, "Kailasa Has Declared War On You" in the turn resolution messages but I don't see any indicator of who I'm at war with.  I'm guessing that you're pretty much in a constant state of war with everyone, and the War messages are just flavor text for when someone else attacks you??  Is that correct, being as there is no diplomacy?

That was my interpretation, yeah.

Correct.
Diplomacy is only practised in multiplayer.

"Practiced"  being the operative word.  ;D

Gobsmacked really. I had to spend mucho moolah to get this game imported.

But really good news.

They've lowered the price to around $30 (£18.99).

Same for me. Some outlet in Nottingham, I'd never heard of and who made a hash of my order. In the end they sorted it out and were very apologetic - anyway we're human and we all make mistakes... Oddly, Shrapnel didn't have them as a distibutor for any other of their published games. I used to get Shrapnel Games titles from Strategy Plus, but sadly they're not in business any more.
@Spelk :)
Do you know of any UK distributors for Shrapnel games? I tried to email Shrapnel, but their Spam filter blocked my attempts to contact them.
