Yes.

Re: Forge of Godhood - recruiting
 

The settings are really extreme. I'm in.

It seems we can randomly assign nations with help of this algorithm:

1) Host generates a single player game with all nations we need.
2) The list of Gods names is published on the forum.
3) Each player chooses a name. The last name left is for the host.
4) Every player gets free access to the basic SP game and sees his choice.

Re: Forge of Godhood - recruiting
 

That's not a good idea. I'm pretty sure names are biased depending on culture and type of pretender. Can Shad Foth be something different from R'lyeh for instance? Better to just use random rolls and numbers than lose time with everyone picking a name.

Re: Forge of Godhood - recruiting
 

It's usually possible to find someone to roll the random nations for a game like this. The Dom community is pretty helpful like that after all :) It's not a job that takes that long normally, and here there's no need to PM players their choices either (which would take some time), so it should be a very straightforward task.

I wouldn't worry about who is going to roll the nations. QM is a regular on the IRC, so I'm pretty certain he'll just bug someone on there until they agree to do it :)

Re: Forge of Godhood - recruiting
 

Yes, Shad Foth easily can be something different from R'lyeh. Any Wyrm can get this name and AI really likes Wyrm pretenders :).
Ok, let's make a little test. I've just made a random SP game,no Mods, Aran, MA, Impossible AI. Who is who in this list? :) ? (The list sequence of nations is changed).

Tarbar
Zothaqqoth
Boneater
Quellan
Varrath
Fegamur
Benim
Fras
Giftec
Than
Odia
Rex
Zrakhnadar
Eudropin
Uoth
Uxshenti
Minochehn
Gravecaller
Loighor
Lekiro
Ygh'yha
Carnage
Rifaa

Re: Forge of Godhood - recruiting
 

There is no need to PM every player. After everyone has chosen his name, the host attaches the save file to his post with list of names and nations. The process is easy and absolutely transparent.

Re: Forge of Godhood - recruiting
 

Zothaqqoth- ryleh?

Re: Forge of Godhood - recruiting
 

There's no need to even be discussing this weird nation selection thing. 3rd party rolling of nations is the de-facto standard for this kind of game and has worked quickly and smoothly for them all. Lets not fiddle about.

Magic site freq: 0

Tried a test game with this and found a "wild forest" in the second province I captured. What is the percent chance to find a site with this set at zero? I know the answer is somewhere in a post but the search function in the forum often frustrates me.

Also very low site freq makes blood powerful.
