Yeah, it's a newbie game. One way or another though, I'll make sure a non-newbie game starts up some time this week.

Can i join as pangaea? Surely didn't won mp games before, just lost one.

Re: Peccary - EA game for new/newish players
 

I call Mictlan in that game! Uh... if I can this early. May I suggest the Cradle map? It seems the best balanced with the best choke points of all the maps.

Ok looks like I missed the boat this time, next time for sure.

Re: Peccary - EA game for new/newish players
 

am I too experienced now to play? i still get stomped in pro games, if not, im in! First choice Rlyeh, last choice Niefelheim

Re: Peccary - EA game for new/newish players
 

Okay, everyone is in apart from Skirmisher and Xanatos. For those of you who missed out I'll set up another newbie game shortly (although Xanatos, I think you may indeed be too experienced now).

Please now upload your pretenders. To do so:

- Make sure you don't have any mods enabled, although only mods affecting pretender design, such as Conceptual Balance, actually matter
- Go to Game Tools -> Create a pretender god in Dominions. Don't set a password, since for PBEM games they're not helpful and occasionally annoying (e.g. if you need a sub)
- 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 'Peccary' in the subject line of your e-mail

A few minutes later you should get a confirmation e-mail, and if you check the website you should find your nation added to the list of nations which have joined the game.

If later you think of an improvement to your pretender, you can send it in again. Provided the game hasn't actually started the server will accept your revised pretender, and send you an e-mail to say so.

Oh, another thing I forgot to mention: The map will have "dead seas", which means although you can conquer them as normal, the seas will give no income and have no magic sites. So don't bother getting an amphibious pretender or anything.

Eh, I am goin niefelheim then, forget rlyeh in dead seas map:P I missed reading that firstoff....pretender for niefel sent in.

Re: Peccary - EA game for new/newish players
 

I thought the game was 8 players? We might need a bigger map? If it's just 9 then that's cool... but how many Pretenders are in so far, Llama?

Re: Peccary - EA game for new/newish players
 

mine will have to wait till I get home from work, about 4 hours away

Re: Peccary - EA game for new/newish players
 

Gaah, Xanatos, you didn't read my post. You didn't get in this game (already full) and besides, I think you are probably post-newbie now.

Yep Reno, it's an 8-player game this one. I'll remove Nief's pretender.
