Pythium pythium pythium?

Hi Remmy,

It's a PBEM game, but using my automated server which checks its e-mails every five minutes, hosts automatically, and has a status page (see www.llamaserver.net ). I think it's somewhere in between direct connect games and ordinary PBEM games in terms of convenience.

hello im interested in this no preference on nations.

Re: Second newbie game (recruiting)
 

Cool zakna, you're in. Most of the nations are available, so try to form an opinion and pick one you like. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif Similarly Yucky and Lily.

I'd like to join as R'lyeh.

Right, I have created the game (see the website), and if you want to you can now upload your pretenders. To do that:

- Go to Game Tools -> Create a pretender god in Dominions
- Go to the savedgames/newlords folder in the dominions directory, and find your pretender file (e.g. mid_pythium_0.2h)
- E-mail the file to: pretenders[ at ]llamaserver[ dot ]net
- Crucially, you must have the game name, 'Jaguar', in the subject line of your e-mail

Actually, I'd better pull out of this one. I somehow managed to forget that I'm away most of next week so it's probably not the best time to start a new game.

I'd like to try out Eriu, sorry for taking so long.

Re: Second newbie game (recruiting)
 

I'm certainly interested.
I work six days a week, but am free enough in my downtime. I play (or rather, plan pretenders) over an hour a day.
Is it still open? When's it kick into action?
What's these two mods?
What's your desired turns/day rate?

Now, I've been playing only EA Ctis... so I'll need a little time in SP to come up with a MA strat and pretender. Or, I guess I could just take a random side and super combatant. But, for now, a provisional request for Ctis.

Re: Second newbie game (recruiting)
 

Yep Lazy_Perfectionist, still open, I will put you down for C'tis, although you can change later if you want. I don't know much about MA C'tis, except that they have the Miasma - your dominion screws up other people's incomes and diseases any non-lizard troops. So I guess you have to decide whether you want a strong dominion to kill everyone, or a weak one to keep friends. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

It'll be 24hr quickhost*, at least for the first say 30-40 turns. When it reaches that point we can extend it to 48 hours if people want. But at any time, if anyone's away for a weekend or anything we can always pause the timer.

The two mods:
Worthy Heroes - There are more heroes for each nation, often quite interesting and fun.
Blessing Hotfix - Allows blessing of undead, which doesn't work quite right in the base game. This is quite important if Ermor wants a bless strategy.

Both the mods are linked at the start of the Capybara thread. I'll link them in this thread when I get round to it.

* - 24hr quickhost means the game hosts when everyone has sent their turns in, or 24hrs after the last hosting, whichever is sooner. In practice this means you always have at least 24 hours from when you took your last turn to take your current turn - but if everyone is taking their turns quickly the game can move nice and fast.
