'''Dominions 3: The Awakening''' is a fantasy [[turn-based strategy]] game released in [[2006]] developed by [[Illwinter]] and published by [[Shrapnel Games]].


==Story==
Dominions 3: The Awakening is a turn-based fantasy strategy game with strategic planning phase and automated tactical combat. It is scheduled to be released on Oct. 2nd, 2006.
After the wars of the Pretenders, men who sought to be gods, the Pantokrator ascended to true godhood and hunted down the Pretenders, imprisoning them forever. Those that escaped his judgement hid away to bide their time. Now a new age has dawned. The Pantokrator is gone, and the surviving Pretenders have retuned to once more battle for ascension. However, they are not alone. Once banished and trapped in a deep slumber, the ancient ones put away by the Pantokrator have awoken from their long sleep.
It is the third part of the [[:Category:Dominions|Dominions]] series from [[Illwinter]]:
*Predecessor: [[Dominions II: The Ascension Wars]]
''They are returning. Awakening from a slumber beyond comprehension to mortals. Awakening to a world they once tried to claim. They promise much to their followers, and to their enemies they will deliver blood, fire, and death.''


==Gameplay==
''The coming chaos is a rebirth of a fire long thought quenched. The Akashic records recall the Age when the world was ripe with pretenders, a legion claiming divinity. Then the Pantokrator ascended to true godhood. Bearing dominion over all, from the Heavens down to the deepest recesses of the ocean, the Pantokrator hunted down the false pretenders, casting them into eternal imprisonment. Not all pretenders were vanquished though; indeed, a great many managed to hide away and bide their time.''
Dominions 3 has a strategic planning phase and automated tactical combat. It is designed for [[/Multiplayer|multiplayer]] through PBEM, hotseat, or TCP/IP but also provides AI opponents for solo or cooperative play. The game provides both scenarios and randomized maps, though it does not include a campaign.


{{ToC}}
''Now a new Age has dawned. The Pantokrator is gone. And now the pretenders who cowered beneath the Pantokrator's rule all those long years dare to show themselves again.  Moreso, their newly remembered hubris has led once more to a war for true ascension to godhood. But they are not alone.''

{{DEFAULTSORT:Dominions 3: Awakening, The}}
''The ancient ones banished by the Pantokrator have broken their shackles. They are awakening.''
 
''There can only be one. A new chapter in the Akashic records is about to be written in the tattered flesh of the fallen...''
