NEVANDAR: Game reference materials call the world Nevandaar, but elsewhere it is called the Sacred Lands. Which is it? I am assuming that the Sacred Lands is the correct name, and that Nevandaar is either another term for the Sacred Lands, a race-specific term (most likely used by the Empire, as that is the main faction), or a term for a large area of the world (most likely the area ruled by the Empire, as they appear to be the largest nation).

The world is called 'The Sacred Lands', and the Empire is Nevendaar. I think the manual to the game is written from the Empire's point of view. That's to the best of my knowledge anyway. Dragonfly888 20:11, 15 November 2005 (UTC)

The original name for the world is Nevendaar, as called by its creator angel Bethrezen. I believe the 'Sacred Lands' is a human name for it (perhaps just for the lands of the Empire). ChronoLegion 7 August 2006

[edit] Stardock insert will be removed

Strategy First Inc. is both publisher and developer of Disciples II.

Stardock has produced Disciples II: Ultimate Edition (compilation and add-on).

I see no reason why "Stardock line of products" should be placed at the end of the article about a game developed and published initially by Strategy First.

Disciples II: Ultimate Edition surely deserves to be mentioned somewhere in the article. If you have any reliable info on this particular compilation please add. (Update: added their website to the list of external links)

[edit] Collector's Edition

The article states that the Gold edition contains several scenarios "not found in any other edition". Aren't these the same 'bonus' scenarios as are found on the Collector's Edition of Dark Prophecy? If so, the article needs correcting. If not, surely the Collector's Edition deserves a mention because of the (additional) bonus scenarios? Magnate 21:08, 24 August 2006 (UTC) Answered my own question: the Collector's Edition scenarios are included in the Gold edition. The Gold edition has 5 additional scenarios not found anywhere else. Splendid. Magnate 00:40, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
