Well Wrana, most people seem ok with Orania...Can you give me a good non wrap around alternative? I personally like the dynamic of wrap around. and especially for this size of a group my second option was Alexander (also a wrap.)

Well, Glory of Gods or Eight Gates look fine for me, but I must admit I didn't actually test them. Alexander map I didn't see at all - can you provide link?
If map of less provinces is usable, I liked Dawn of the Dominions very much.. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif
And do I understand correctly that you abandoned the idea of using Worthy Heroes mod (I'm indifferent to this one)?

Well here is the map Alexander, it is a big wraparound, but maybe too much water for our case.

And I would like to use worthy heroes myself. It is a fun mod that rewards luck. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

And glory of the gods normal or MP? the 400 province one is a bit huge:O

Re: Mods and maps
 
I would vote for 3/4 of capitals rather than half... 1/2 seems to allow one big player to win without coming to grips with, say, the other big player(s). I'm open to 1/2, I suppose, but just a suggestion...

Re: Mods and maps
 
Ok I just ran a test on Glory of the Gods (MP) and it wasnt too crowded with 15, so that should be fine too. The problem is it does have a lot more water...but that should at least keep ryleth busy and motivate others to move into the water.

Re: Mods and maps
 
what do people think? I would not be against more %. Though maybe more like 60%-65%?

Edit: Actually thinking about it, I am in a MP game now where its half the victory points, and as long as the scales are on. people will know when someone is close, so they will gang up on him to stop him. I think less makes it much more competitive and doesnt let people get complacent to turtle.

Thanks, Alexander's graphics look bit too psychedelic to me.
And if you think Glory of Gods OK, than I'm certainly for it!
As for VP - as I said I didn't play MP before, but I think that 75% capitals is certainly too much!
So WOULD Worthy Heroes be used or no??? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/confused.gif

Re: Mods and maps
 
Yes on Worthy heroes, I would say half + 1 on the vps, and glory of the gods mp is fine.
