Who will be in charge of organization and hosting ?

If there is a disagreement on the map you can always browse http://www.techno-mage.com/~dominion...humbnails.html
They all should be 70 land and 10 water. Basically 5 provinces each before you go to war.

Or http://www.techno-mage.com/~dominion...humbnails.html
which are 140 land and 20 sea. Basically 10 provinces each then the land wars start.

Grab any you like. If you dont like what you see then there will be new maps there tomorrow. One advantage is that no one has played these maps. Dont worry. None of my wild random stuff on these. Just bare bones maps

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">no offense at all intended Gandalf, but I confess that they all look the same to me. The other thing is that I really like maps with chokepoints - partly because this is somewhat realistic (at least between landmasses) - and maps with some impassable boundaries. Having said that, if the consensus were to be to use one of those I would go along happily enough.

BTW re. hosting I'd really prefer not to, so hopefully someone else will be willing to...

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Yeah its the limitations of the dommap generator. Still good stuff for starting with if people want to use a paint program and notepad to turn one of them into something more playable.

Re: Last DOM-I PBEM party
 

Hey if the demo will be out early next week (let's suppose tuesday for the sake of argument) maybe we shouldn't embark on a PbEM for Dom I... what do you think?

Re: Last DOM-I PBEM party
 

that is my thoughts too....even though i was really looking forward to it.... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif

Re: Last DOM-I PBEM party
 

Perhaps only players who agree to actually continue to play through the game should join up.

Re: Last DOM-I PBEM party
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">I, for one, wouldn't have any problems with playing I even if II is out. I don't know if there's any sense in doing things only half-way, so: How many of you know they can keep playing even if demo / actual game is out? I know I can.

About hosting, sorry can't do it either. My university mail has some major lag problems and work address is not for major PbEM hosting... Was the thread starter prepared to host or just asking if people were interested?

Re: Last DOM-I PBEM party
 

I'm sorry, I'll quit the instant the demo comes out http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/tongue.gif

Re: Last DOM-I PBEM party
 

I will continue the game to it's end regardless of DOM-II state.

I too can't host the game.
My web mail account (hotmail) can't handle much traffic. Plus at the end of the month I'd have to change my ISP.
