Networkingguru:

Well, I think it is not worth taking the risk and as it is newbie game we should all make good habits http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

You should know what name you give. But pretenders for the same age/nation are named like mid_mictlan_0.2h then _1.2h _2.2h and so on.

You can create a pretender if you play by network, I think. But with PBEM game exists only [well, almost] on hosting server. And he needs all pretenders to create the game.

So does llamabeast have the start-location placement taken care of or do you want me to handle that? (I do this a lot and am happy to help.)

Have all of you finalized your nation choices?

Re: MA team game for new players, new thread
 

Gregstorm said that he might want to change his nation, but everyone else has decided.

Re: MA team game for new players, new thread
 

I'll be out of country w/o Dominions access from around Dec 21-29. Unless other people also plan to take a break around then, I should give up my seat so I don't slow down the game...

Re: MA team game for new players, new thread
 

Networkingguru is correct that the worthy heroes mod doesn't matter when making a pretender. Mods only matter if they affect the costs/availabilities of pretenders. Hence conceptual balance can screw things up. But worthy heroes is fine.

Dr P - if you wouldn't mind doing the start positions I would really really appreciate it.

I will be too having a christmas-holiday at end of december, and I bet many others will be having holidays, so I think we can take a break from game then, is this ok to all?

Re: MA team game for new players, new thread
 

I'm perfectly happy for a Christmas break. It'll take the pressure off people.

On another note, I'll change from Pangaea to Pythium.

Re: MA team game for new players, new thread
 

Much better to have a Christmas break than force people off the game when we're so close to starting.

Re: MA team game for new players, new thread
 

I am sure we should have a break at least 23-27th december.

I know I will need to have a break from 17 to 18 or 19 cause I will be on a plane going home for Christmas. But we should have 48h hosting by then.

Re: MA team game for new players, new thread
 

how about we have a quickhost with no time limit during the holidays. That way, if anyone finds the time and wants to they can play, if not, not.
