Awesome, that fills us up!

Now, I have no experience with this "filling the map with set starting locations" thing that was being discussed. What commands are used? Are nations given static locations or do I nostart every prov except 14 chosen ones?

I think you should ask Calahan about that. He seems to have more exp in setting up games and maps.

You simply add to the map file as many
#start province nbr
as you have players, and each player will start at one of these selected locations, selected randomly for each nation.

The point is space evenly the starting locations.

I did it for Troubling Times on the Faerun Map and I can do it here too, but if an "innocent hand" does it, starting locations can be kept secret. If I do it, I will know all starting locations and I will share them with you for transparency, so each player will know where other capitals are located. Less fun than having to discover them.

Great, I can't wait to start...

...Now if only I could figure out my strategy; every test I do in SP goes horribly, horribly wrong. (At least, as horribly wrong as you can go in Single Player, which is winning very slowly)

Ok, that's easy enough. It would be better if an independent person did the start locs, but I guess I'll probably do them and obviously have a picture showing where they are. Unless you really want to do it Numahr. I'll wait for mauxe to pick his nation so I know how many UW spots we have. Mauxe, what are ya gonna be?

Also, there is a updated version of CPCS with a massive single bugfix thankfully hunted down by soyweiser. clicky

iRFNA, I was ready to volunteer for it if nobody else did, but you taking care of it as admin makes more sense

Ok, the server is up for people to send in pretenders. When mauxe picks his nation, I'll add start points and post a picture. I've PMed the port to everyone except ragabash, who doesn't have PMs turned on. While I'm sure you can tell him it, quell, it's probably a good idea for him to enable them for diplomacy reasons.

After disconnecting from the server, the only 2 mods that are enabled are single age and standards and streamers, no CBM or CSPS. I assume this is a mistake?

Re: SeaOfInnocence - All ages newb game [Design Pretenders]
 
I noticed that as well, but maybe it's because the server isn't fully running yet? It was definitely given the command to run all the mods...

Sorry, did you need/want me to pick a water nation or can I take any free?
