Here we go ...

We've started with:

C'tis - BandarLover
Lanka - K
R'lyeh - thraveboy
Abysia - jimkehn
Agartha - vfb

Good luck to all, and have fun! Please PM me or post if there are any problems.

I have quickhost on, so the next turn will start once everyone gets their turn submitted.

Aww nuts.

It said I got a bad pack from the server and crashed. This happened while downloading the map. Would it help if I download the map ahead of time?

BandarLover:

Yes, please try downloading the zip file. Just unpack the zip file into your dominions3/maps/ directory. You might need to change the case of TGA in tyrande_103.TGA to tga, as in: tyrande_103.tga.

Here's the link:

Also, have you patched to 3.06?

Yes that worked. Thanks.

Quickhost Offline Warning
 
A warning about quickhost games (since this game is quickhost):

If you choose to complete a turn offline, make sure it is finished before you connect to the server.

From http://www.quartertothree.com/game-t...d.php?p=776183

Quote:


The only danger in doing a turn offline is that if you save it, even if you aren't done, the game saves a valid .2h file for that turn. If the game is set to quickhost, and you are the last player to submit a turn, and you connect with your partially completed turn, the game will see valid moves for all nations and will auto-host. So don't connect to a game with a move made offline unless you are prepared to have it be the move you submit. Unless the game isn't set to auto-host when all moves have been submitted, in which case you are safe.

bemura.dyndns.org should always be running, so it's probably safest just to do all your turns connected.

Game Scores and Map
 
The latest scores file for this game will always be available at:

http://bemura.dyndns.org/b2/scores.html

This is the same info as in the 'Score graphs' screen.

One other thing - this map has a lot of mountains and rifts, and also 'ports' that allow sea travel where there is a lighthouse. On this map I play with Map Filter #8 on: Show Neighbors. (Well, actually now I always play with all the Map Filters on, but this was the map that made me start doing that.)

Re: Game Scores and Map
 
You are right, vfb. I have been noticing a lot of provinces that are adjacent that you wouldn't think to be adjacent.

Lanka, a Vendetta upon you, for your unprovoked invasion of our territory! Those are our swampy desolate wastelands. May the ghost of our prophet haunt you, and may our Troglodytes rise from their holes in the ground and defile your blood slaves!

ooc: Damn, Ancient Ones can't hit the broadside of a barn. Oh, wait, I think I read that somewhere. Broadside of a monolith, maybe. I should have taken some fire.

vfb March 27th, 2007 07:28 PM

Re: Game Scores and Map
 
Come on Lanka, seige us! Starve our pale ones to death! Mu ha ha ha ha.

By the way, how are you enjoying your visit to our world-famous swamps? Scrounging up enough food for your monkeys?
