Oh no, did I miss out on this one?

Marignon is Spain, aren't they? Don't mess with the Spanish Inquisition! Umm.. Eriu is Ireland, but that might not be fair. Oh well.

Hi CUnknown!

I did not hear back from you and was such an eager beaver, I invited other players in your stead. I hope you'll be interested in playing next time. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

I moved Marignon over to France so they would be closer to Ermor and provide some excellent Inquisitor on Wraithlord Action! Plus, I think Marignon is inspired by Southern France somehow. I think I read that in a post by K.O.

So, I needed someone to be in Spain, and there was no room to stick Eriu in Ireland, when Man was in Britain. But, you're right. Eriu is not the perfect fit for Spain.

Re: Name change
 

Maringnon is more italian/papal inquisiton in MA and becomes more spanish convert the heretics in LA so you could probably make an arguement for putting them either way personally I would put them in the southern France/Northen Spain kind of region

Nation assignments
 

Hello:

Here are the nation assignments:

Abysia - Pashadawg
Agartha - Ygorl
Arco - Caduceus
Atlantis - Quantum Mechani
C'Tis - Atul
Eriu - Bluebird
Ermor - Morkilus
Jotunheim - Jurri
Man - Dakar
Marignon - Ferrosol
Oceania - Ramshead
Pangaea - Migaaresno
Pythium - Wahnsinniger
Ulm - Ewierl
Vanheim - Boron

I am happy to say that I think everyone got their first or second choice!

Let's start the game on Wednesday night. That will give everyone a chance to get the map and, perhaps, get the lay of the land with a test game or two, before committing to a final pretender. Don't forget to use the modified .map file I sent yesterday.

When creating your pretender, be sure to have the Complete Conceptual Balance Mod 1.1 activated. Otherwise, your pretender will not work. Also, when you send me your pretender, it will be a .2h file in the "newlords" folder.

Please send me your pretender files by Wednesday, August 1, 2007, at 9:00 p.m. Boston time.

Hosting deadlines will generally be at 9:00 p.m. Boston time consistently.

If you ever need an extension, please just ask. They will be granted liberally. However, if I don't hear from you, then you might get a stale turn.

Please include "Hydrant" in the subject line of all email correspondence about the game. I use an email filter to help me keep track of turns.

Finally, if you need to go out of town and will miss turns, please try to get a sub to fill in for you. That way, the game won't be held up.

Thank you.
