Re: PBEM Multiplayer Game: No new positions (was "New Multiplayer Game")
 

Hah...so when they say play by email they mean play by email. So figured I would ask here rather than in email in case somone else was as clueless as I.

I got all the files (god, trn and mod) and loaded my turn. Do I just make my moves and hit end turn then exit and email my turn? It wasn't obvious that the trn file had changed (although an exit and restart confirms that it is)

Guess I answered my own question. And, I am certainly willing to have my trn massmailed.

Cheers,
Eric

It begins...

Tholvarag stirred as if waking from a long slumber. Instantly, his holy men came to his side, but he waved them away. As he rose from the dias, he could feel the loss. He was gone; there could be no doubt.

He turned and faced his servants, who watched him with a mixture of fear and anticipation on their faces. Somehow, they too had felt the loss of Him, and they were looking to Tholvarag to fill the void. Would the other peoples of the world look at him this way, or would they resist his power? Somehow, he felt he already knew the answer to this question.

He reached down to his side and drew the ancient ice blade of Niefelheim, Winter's Bite. Upon release from its scabbard, the blade flashed with power. Tholvarag, pretender god of Jotunheim, held the blade before him. He knew it would be some time before the blade would be put back to rest.

After a long pause, he addressed his servants.
"Summon the Jarls to the fortress, and send word to the Vaetti. Jotunheim is going to war. It is time to take the truth to the people of this world, by mouth or by sword. We will save this world from Chaos once again, as He did before. It is our duty and our right. We shall be victorious."

In his hand, Winter's Bite began to glow bright with anticipation.

Nah, you send your .2h file to the host. "2h" stands for "to host". Then you get a new .trn file from him. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

4 remain.

Alderath, the red dragon, un-curled his tail in anticapation. The wars would soon begin. He had only to wait a short time. The Wardens of Avalon were training, the armies readying, the swords of iron and steel would soon be clashing. Fire would rain upon his enemies, it would burn and torch their forces. Nothing but blackened ruin will remain.

Sighing, he changed back to the small, weak human form. But Alderath must prepare as well, researching in the depths of magic.

The Ascension Wars were beginning.

-Alderath, Lord of Flame

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Massmail of a compressed files of trn files would be fine. I have password. If somebody doesn't have a password, it might be better to restart with one while it's still early.

I'm afraid I forgot to password protect my pretender, so mass emailing wouldn't work to well for me. Sorry.
