Also, when the nations have been placed in starting locations, team Captains (or at least the vet team Captain), please PM them to the admin(s).

Province type of the capital doesn't matter, other than being the backdrop of battles fought there.

I think we're just waiting to hear from Baalz, whether he's okay with stuff...

It also matters for summon animals!!!! There are a couple of other effects (send wolves) that notice forests, etc.

Well then I probably won't need to make any adjustments on those two.

Ling, tell us, with Mysterio having been assasinated, will there be a son of Mysterio or something else in this game? Or is the line ended for good?:p

And as summon animals is going to be the cornerstone of my strategy what am I likely to get in Swamps? :p

if you are truly serious you can always trade start locations with a fellow noob player can't you?


also... how does one edit a map to give their nation a specific start location? i want to do some testing with proper locations...

Team vet switches Mictlan with T'ien Ch'i.

Lineup coming up momentarily.

1. I need each team to decide which player is playing which nation (I need this info to update the opening post).

Here are the heroes or the villains, depending on the team you root for:

Ashdod - namad
Eriu - Baalz
Ermor - Lingchih
Marignon - TheDemon
T'ien Ch'i - DrP
Vanheim - atul

Open the .map file with wordpad or similar program and at the bottom of the text file add the text below for each nation you want to specify starting locations for:

#specstart [nationnmber] [provnumber]

Example:

#specstart 1 241
(specifies that EA Ermor is to start in province number 241)

Note: nation numbers for each era can be found in the mapedit.pdf in the doc directory.

I believe #specstart will overide any terrain masks such as no-start that some maps use to indicate starting/no starting provinces, but if so you can either go in the editor and uncheck no-start or find the province in the terrain list and remove the "512" terrain mask. Be aware the map editor will erase any specstarts you add to a file, so if you make any changes via the editor, be sure to go back and add them.

Got it. Available unused nations are now Mictlan and Man.

Vets only need now to PM which of their nations they wish to start in the pre-assigned vet locations.

I expect the noob nation assignment and placement will take a bit longer due to the number of team members but it should be coming soon.
