Re: Single Age Mod?
 

I noticed that myself, Folket. When I log on to the server as a player, I only see MA factions. When I check the server window itself, I see all the correct factions I am supposed to see. I don't get it.

Re: Single Age Mod?
 

When I was creating and adding my god I scrolled down and saw the other nations for the people who choose them. And If you use the mod for other games you will find that foodstamp moved them from the other ages into MA.

Re: Single Age Mod?
 

So people from the other ages are still not able to upload their pretenders? Someone playing an LA or EA nation give us some feedback please http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Global War (full, server up)
 

Things seem to be advancing.... I agree that 5 good vs. 8 evil is maybe to equal. Maybe adding another evil nation is better than removing a good nation.

Tuijdy's point that the evil nations would ignore each other, even with the secret enemies, till the end is a good point. A mechanism to force the game to a quick conclusion if good is defeated decisively is needed. One poster said that the top evil nation should win if good/neutral is defeated. I think this, with very little tweaking, pushes things forward.
Modified Evil Victory Conditions would be:
1.Good/Neutral is defeated.
2.And then either:
A.The evil nation is the first or second strongest evil nation by province count.
B.The evil nation has defeated it's secret enemy.

This will make evil nations compete for province count to, and also mean that once good/neutral is rendered very weak, the top two evil nations will have every incentive to finish things quickly. This makes 'patient waiting' by 4th highest province count evil nation a very... risky... proposition.

Finally, I offer to hold the secret enemy list seperate from Foodstamps administrative actions. I am a new player, and have very little 'relationships' with existing players. Also, I will have no involvement in the game besides holding the master list. I want this game to work, and will keep the list secret.

Also, if you want to add a neutral nation, maybe one of the weaker water nations would make diplomacy interesting. No LA Ryleh, of course. Not so sure.

Re: Global War (full, server up)
 

I don't understand. Are you saying you should have a second copy of the list, or that you don't trust me with the list?

Drake49:

Ekhem, you are brave to come here, with just few posts, and tell that you are more trustworthy than one of the senior community members. Also your words about victory conditions suggest that you completely do not understand the idea of that game nor have you really read that thread.

Re: Global War (full, server up)
 

Drake, Foodstamp agreed to be the moderator primarily so he could make the secret enemy list and keep it secret. (Also so he could spotcheck turns to make sure no Good nations are bloodhunting, for example).

There is no reason for a second person to hold the list, in fact that would be a security breach! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

As far as other factors involving Evil's victory conditions, I would rather not complicate things any further. Let's keep them as they are for now. Maybe next game we will make more additions.

Edit: Peace, Zeldor. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif I think his suggestions are potentially good ones.. but only if Evil needs more restrictions. My thinking right now is that the Secret Enemy thing will be fun and restricting enough.

Also, I don't think he was being bold or arrogant, but that he didn't realize that Foodstamp's primary role as moderator was to hold the secret list.

Re: Global War (full, server up)
 

Fewer posts means absolutely nothing, perhaps he just spent less time insulting other community members and posting pointless stuff...His suggestions made sense, but hey drake dominions has a mature community, unlike many other games, trust foodstamp, he will be fair http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

P.S I have problem connecting, is the sever down?

Re: Global War (full, server up)
 

Server down? I cannot seem to connect.

Re: Global War (full, server up)
 

It might very well be down. I will have to check it when I get home. If you don't hear from me in a few hours, then yes, the server was down because I lost internet connection. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif
