Hrm. Wait, so if I understand it correctly, this mod improves the national heroes *and* allows each nation multiple copies of each hero?

Bah. Tien-Chi heroes are particularly desireable too. And I took Misfortune-3, which I definitely wouldn't have done if I had known that mod was going in.

Ah well. I'll deal, I guess. Would like to second the mild annoyance at a last-minute, unannounced mod though. Uploading the turn in a short bit, once I figure out how to apply the mod (I never have, yet) and get the turn done. : )

Yeah, fair point, I'm sorry guys. It hadn't even crossed my mind that it might affect pretender design (just because it's never crossed my mind when I've been designing my pretenders I guess). It doesn't make heroes more common, but on the whole they become slightly more powerful. Anyway, sorry again for that. At least, bear in mind that even if you took luck-3 you might not get a hero for a long time (6% chance a turn), and you've saved 240 design points. But I realise it would be far better to know about the mod before the game started since with hindsight it could obviously influence your choices.

If people would like a restart, we can do that.

Re: Chinchilla - Game for new/newish players (open
 

i am fine either way.

Hum. Well, I think having a game feel a little unfair right from the start is not good. So I think I will do a restart. We only lose a few hours.

I think this turn is messed up too http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif It requires me to have CBM Ulm Reborn.dm installed.
