Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
I like simple solutions and since my capabilities in the area of map editing are practically non-existent I think we can either:
A. Rely on the kindness of someone who is competent at map editing to apply the fixes. Perhaps ano will be kind enough to take a look - I'll PM him later... B. Just find another similar size map that doesn't have all these issues. |
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
ok, let's proceed. which of the following you like and think is balanced enough for our game:
1. World of Warhammer (Vanilla) 2. Sharivar 10 starts (rdonj: "The map I used for Tourmaline is NI Shahrivar 10 starts"). Who made that one?- Can we ask him to add 2 more starts? 3. Bigger map (200-240). In which case we need 2 more players. |
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
I made that one :P. I could probably come up with a configuration for 12 starts if it comes down to it. It would mean completely redoing all the starts though. In any case I don't mind either way. It could be interesting playing on world of warhammer... one of the few maps with a significant number of cave provinces.

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
If at all possible I want to play on Sharivar, it´s a *beatiful* map that I havent played MP yet. Can´t we just take Sombres version and edit out summoning circle?
|
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
I have no idea how well the warhammer map is balanced for MP. It seems to have lots of water which is not that great.
I think our safest choice is to go for 12 starts Sharivar. However this entails extra work for you rdonj. So it's ultimately up to you. You don't have to invest in this if you don't want to or don't have the time for this. If it comes to that we can just take the warhammer map. It is a beautiful map as well, so should prove pleasant to play with. |

I had about 30 minutes to burn, so..
Here you go, A fixed version of the Shahrivar (Sombre version) with the sites fixed. I replaced all sites that give independent mages or school bonuses with pure gem sites. Some of the sites are pretty good, some even give 4 gems, but since that information is now public, I think that it won't unbalance much. Code:
-- Famous sites of Shahrivar (visible on the map) . |
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
Yay! Good work.:)
|
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
Thanks Burnsaber! Really wanted to play on Shahrivar.
I would have been happy with the powerful sites, has its incredibly rare you ever see them in MP (like 1 in a 100 games if your lucky) and its gives you a strategic point to fight over. Nevermind thou, if other people don't want to have fun with such sites. |
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
muchas gracias Burnsaber
I can't U/L the map to llamaserver. I get an error: "The map file you just uploaded specifies an image file that the LlamaServer does not have a copy of. Please upload the image file here, then you can go back and upload the map file again. Please enter the location of your image file below and click "Upload map image". " When I U/L the image it says it's already there. I'll PM the server's master perhaps he can help :) |
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
I had that problem when I was uploading my version of the map. First thing I'd suggest is removing any and all spaces from the file names and trying again.
|
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
Yoohoo, that worked :D
We are all set guys. Missing 3 nations to start. |
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
Unfortunately I overlooked this game recruiting.
If one of the players wants to withdraw before game starts I'm ready to replace him as Abyssia. |
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
I've changed file names for Burnsaber's files and edited the .map accordingly to resolve the U/L issue.
Later this evening I'll attach the final map files to the first post. Make sure to use them for the game. |
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
Map attached to first post.
All pretenders are in and I got no complaints from anyone re. not being able to submit his nation so I'm starting the game now. Good luck all :) |
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
Is my start prov meant to be a wasteland w/only 3 neighbors? I'll be fine, but its still rather annoying.
|
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
Pray you don't get an earthquake razed temple event ;)
Seriously, luck is part of the game. We could have used fixed start locs but I personally find it more exciting to let luck decide. I hope you'll do good despite your start loc :) |
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
Fantomen, please submit your turn. The hosting schedule is 24h. You should have staled had the server not strangely added a 24h extension all by itself :)
Next time you need an extension just ask me. |
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
Sorry bout that. I have some problems, when I try to load the turn my game crashes. Trying to solve it now...
Edit: ok, problem solved. Doing turn now. |

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
i'm not usally a persone than make controversy , but I started in a province far from Atlantis 1 territory and closed in other 2 direction (the lake to west and river to south with only a direction for my expansion and of course I have already met another opponent that he closed me...
|
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
viccio, I'm sorry to hear that. Random starting pos. is part of the luck element in this game that I wanted to keep. If it's any consolation to you I also got a bad tarting position, not as bad as yours, but still quite bad IMHO.
Guys, I'd be taking a short vacation on Oct 1st so maybe I'll need to add 24h extension. |
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
Rats I staled. I just need to adjust to the time difference. However, I for one did get a nice starting position.
Cheers Aristander |
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
We're now on 48h schedule.
|
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
Ah, glorious. I'll try not to use it every turn though.
|
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
Hail Lord of Gath:
The time has come to cancel our NAP. Orders will be given on turn 24. I would say "good luck", but I'm the one who will probally need it most. :) |
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
Aww, curse you Bogus!
|
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
Lol. Gotta love him. He has this habit of showing up exactly where he's least wanted.
|
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
For some strange reason the server refuses to accept my turn file. I've sent it three times already and didn't get the ack. nor does it appear the my turn was received in game status page.
I've turned off quick host while this issue persists. Anyone experience similar problems? |
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
thats because llamabeast unplugged the llamaserver. look at his post
|
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
oh, that explains it. May I ask where is that post?
|

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
Thank you!
I asked for an extension to our game so that the following won't stale: Atlantis Waiting for 2h file Caelum Waiting for 2h file Chelms Waiting for 2h file Ermor Waiting for 2h file Gath Waiting for 2h file Jomon Waiting for 2h file Midgard Waiting for 2h file Pangaea Waiting for 2h file Worst case we'll rollback. With most players staling it kinda makes sense. |
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
Jomon here. I've sent in my turn. And I actually just got turn received messages from the server. But it is still not showing on the llamaserver page. So I guess once we're sure the llamaserver is up and running I'll send my turn in again.
|
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
Yikes. I will resend my turn in a bit. Thanks
|
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
Yes, I reccomend to resend and will do so myself this evening.
After that I'll turn quick host back again. If anyone needs more time plz inform me. |
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
server still doesn't seem to be working well.
At some time I got bombarded by mails from the server. Then I resent my turn and got no ack mail. In addition I gave a 24h extension and turned off quick host but the server page doesn't show any of this to be applied. I hope the server gets fixed and that nobody stales. |
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
OK--I've resent my turn again.
|
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
Guys I suggest you all resend your turns. Just in case...
All turns are in but I've set the game to host tomorrow so you all have enough time to resend. |
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
Done.
|
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
Me too.

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
Any nations interested in purchasing fire gems, please contact Tien Chi.

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
Ah man, I thought I'd sent that turn in. That could have been pretty terrible for me (but luckily wasn't).
|
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
I am going to be busy with ROTC essentially all this weekend, with absolutely no internet access. If I could have a delay till Monday that would be great.
|
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
I don't think that should be a problem. You're set.
|
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl [12/12, Accepting pretenders]
Okay, I've been hanging around with only one prov & fortress for some time now, hoping to give one more grand last stand. Since this hasn't materialized, I am going to set AI. I haven't even done anything for the last 6 turns or so.
|
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
Ermor decided to end our NAP and attack me soon. I'll still be busy with Midgard at that time. So I invite everyone to help me fight Ermor, since if I fight alone he will surely win and then no one will be able to stop him. Ermor is nasty opponent as it is, but with highly skilled player he can be devastating. If you think you can relax and eat popcorn while we fight, you are very wrong.
|
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
Ha ha ha. You will be very lucky if somebody doesn't decide to attack YOU while you try to fight Ermor.
P.S. AaaaaaAaaaAHahaAHAHAAhahahaAHAHA! )))))) |
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
Eh, they are both more or less dominating this game. Whichever one of them doesn't go down is probably going to win. In an ideal situation, war would be declared on both of them while they're killing each other and the survivors of that would then duke it out amongst themselves to see who won. Of course, the winner would inevitably be either the person who takes most of gath's land or the person who sits back quietly observing the proceedings while everyone else gets mashed up.
That's probably not happening in this game though since there are not very many powerful nations bordering the two of them. |
Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
Well.
Let's just skip time-consuming boring part and declare Ermor the winner, then. |
