Aridia- LA game for intermediate players
 

Looking for intermediate players (10 or so MP games).

Map: Urraparand
Players: 10
Mods: CBM 1.84
Era: late age
site frequency: 40
Hall of Fame: 15
all other settings default
Banned nations: Ermor, R'lyeh
hosting: Llamaserver
hosting interval: 24h to start, extensions upon request
diplomacy: NAPs are non-binding (you may attack other provinces, overwrite global enchantments, steal artifacts, seduce commanders, etc. at will), though honorable behavior pays off in kind. Trade agreements (gold, gems, magic items, province swaps) are inviolable.
victory conditions: Become Pantokrator the old-fashioned way, hold 6 or more capital provinces for 3 consecutive turns (screenshots may be requested), or with the consensus of all remaining players. This should mitigate end-game micro and horror.

I'm open to suggestions, if people have different ideas about what would make for a better game.

Player roster:
1) Groundworm- Mictlan
2) Catquiet- Marignon
3) tratorix- Arcoscephale
4) kasnavada- Ulm
5) yandav- Bogarus
6) Sil- Patala
7) Bjaarn- Jomon
8) Anaconda- Pythium
9) Ossa- C'tis
10) Deadnature- Midgard

I'll take Marignon.

You like Marignon, Catquiet. :) Welcome aboard

Re: Aridia- LA game for intermediate players, now recruiting
 

I'll take Arco.

Can we have renaming on in this game? It makes it a lot easier to keep track of your mages.

Re: Aridia- LA game for intermediate players, now recruiting
 

Also I'd say up the magic site settings. The late age having less gem income makes sense from a thematic reason, but i've always found it annoying.

Welcome aboard, tratorix.

Renaming on is fine.

I'm ok with increasing magic site frequency a little bit, but my recent games (Faithless excluded) have been with very high site frequency (50+). I've found that this adds significantly to the power level and micromanagement of the game, while adding relatively little to the entertainment value. I'd be ok with 40, I'm a little more reluctant to go as high as 45 but could be convinced if the majority are in favor of. Let me know what you think.

I'll join as LA Ulm.

Re: Aridia- LA game for intermediate players, now recruiting
 

Count me in as Bogarus.

Re: Aridia- LA game for intermediate players, now recruiting
 

I'll have Patala. I'd be in favor of high magic site settings, but then having chosen Patala that is a tad self-serving.
