Frechdachs Returns (finished)
 

After the last Frechdachs game was so much fun, I was thinking about giving it another go. There is no change to the rules, but as you know, every Dom II game is different:

• Urgaia Map
• 15 VPs on the map, 9 to win
• Independents: 3
• Magic Sites: 60
• Common Events
• Normal research
• Richness: 2
• 15 HOF entries
• Starting Provinces: 1
• Renaming Allowed
• Master PW set
• We start with 24h QH
• Conceptual Balance Mod 5.4 ( Link )

The map says a maximum player number of 6, so that is what I am aiming at.

• Bluebird - Ermor
• shovah - Mictlan
• Reverend Zombie - Vanheim
• WraithLord - C'tis
• Wish_For_Blood_Slaves - Man

House rules: No Ermor death theme, conceptual balance mod 5.4

Hostname: zoo.in-zueri.ch Port: 8192

<font color="purple">Winner: Bluebird playing Ermor</font>

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

I'll be in with jotun or possibly ctis.

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

I'd like to play as Vanheim, please.

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

What is Frechdachs, Is it like the Schlitzhor game?

Anyhow, I'd also like in please, as Ctis and if Ctis is taken then as Pythium.

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

ok, sry wraith but ive decided i'll be ctis (would be different if it was your birthday but...)

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

Man I missed getting Ctis by a day http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif
NP Shovah, I'll take Pythium instead.

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

See this game. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/stupid.gif

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

BTW - I think I will pick Ermor.

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

I would like to change to mictlan

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

I will elect to play as jotunhiem

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

Shovah, does it mean that you give up your claim for Ctis?
If so, I would like to re elect my first choice to play Ctis.

thanks.

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

yes, i took pity on you mortal.

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

on second thought, I might rather have man.

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

So it's settled, one hot Ctis for me, one frozen Jotun for you.

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

Gee - this is starting to confuse me http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif I hope I get all the updates right.

BTW - the host is up and waiting for your uploads. I think the game will be good, even if we do not manage to find a sixth person. I would like to start Monday next week, if that is ok with everybody.

Looks like everybody is waiting for the Dom3 release. [img]/threads/images/Graemlins/Envy.gif[/img] I have already pre-ordered 2 copies, but I do not want to wait until then. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/cool.gif

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

Yes, it is good that this is a six player game.

*uploaded pretender*

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

My pretender has been uploaded, too ;-)

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

I'll be uploading shortly.

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

Here we go, the game has been started - have fun everybody.

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

ooh, good starting position http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

Tell me where, and I will visit you http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

Thanks, and unless I'm mistaken this is the last DOM-II MP game (at least in the shrapnel forums) which makes it kind of unique http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

We will see - Dom3 has not yet been released. And even then, it takes some time until all copies have been distributed in sufficient quantities.

Also, I hope that I can get some update on the implemented protocol, so that I am able to update my 'Gods Eye' tool to Dom3.

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

yeah, and I hope mods are not too difficult to adapt to dom 3, I'd hate to have no one ever play with the mod I am currently working on.

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

BTW - I am creating a log of the game for a nice AAR. If anybody else will also take up the work, I think this would be very nice. I would collect them and display them side-by-side.

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

New turn, # 3.

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

i find the server to be in a state of down-ness

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

seems to be up for me.

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

its back up.

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

Hmm - the server was up all the time (uptime of the host is 204 days). But I know that the ISP has problems once in a while. These problems should go away after some time (30 min).

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

new turn is up

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

Hmm - interesting game. Is Man all alone on the western peninsula? Looks like Mictlan and Vanheim have already started to rip each-other apart.

C'tis, are you also involved in this?

Did I mention that Frechdachs games tend to become fast paced and rather ugly?

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

Its me and van, no ctis and yes man is alone down there to my knowledge.

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

yes, I have it to myself. yet to take the arcipelageos.

Of course what that means is, since I will have 6 victory points, that whoever wishes to win will HAVE to take some of them from me eventually.

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

Hmm - there are 15 VP and 9 are needed. If my math is right, that makes it possible to win without "our" 6 points.

The open question is: why did Mictlan expand to the west, where he/she/it has to face 3 other players, instead of going east where there is only one ... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

we have an NAP. met so early that we decided it wasn't worth depleting eachother's resources to have it out.

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

just waiting for wraithlord with about 5 hours to go.

Re: Frechdachs Returns (looking for players)
 

Thanks for waiting http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Turn's up.

C\'tis breaks NAP
 

Fie upon C'tis for breaking our NAP without warning!

Re: C\'tis breaks NAP
 

That is nasty - shame on you, WraithLord! Kicking somebody already down.

Re: C\'tis breaks NAP
 

A. I have sent an in game message warning that I'm canceling the NAP on turn 12!
B. I will never break a NAP w/o warning!
C. You can check with most MP players on these forums that I am a man of my word.
D. Hey, I even have all of my turns saved so I can actually prove it. So shame on you for blaming me in vain!

[EDIT] Oh, and bluebird, I didn't take you for the judgmental type, I would suggest that you learn to be less reckless with you acusations.

Re: C\'tis breaks NAP
 

it pays to read all your messages!

Re: C\'tis breaks NAP
 

But not many do, its the sneaky mans way to declare war.

Re: C\'tis breaks NAP
 

Could be so, though I certainly had no intention of being sneaky, lazy?!- could be, but certainly not sneaky.

And BTW, I always read all my in game messages, I was assuming everyone does.

Re: C\'tis breaks NAP
 

Prove it and the shame will indeed be upon me. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/redface.gif

The only message I recall from you is the warning that you gave that you wanted to take province 9, or some such. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/confused.gif

Re: C\'tis breaks NAP
 

Reverend Zombie, look men , I really respect you but you are completely wrong on this one. I did send a message to you on turn 10 asking if your capitol is province 9 (I don't want to give your answer as to not betray this information here), then on turn 12 I have sent a second message to you canceling the NAP.

I have no problem to prove it, anyone with the master password can verify it for I can email my saved turn.

Re: C\'tis breaks NAP
 

I am really sorry you got my message wrong. Actually, I forgot a major smily behind it. Deception and betrayal is part of the game, so my statement was more an ironic one. So - here is the smile http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: C\'tis breaks NAP
 

hey bluebird, did you get my pm? i sent it like 5 turns ago so i'll guess no. Ill resend

Re: C\'tis breaks NAP
 

I've probably over reacted - so sorry for that. It just that I once had this unpleasent incident in an AOW-SM PBEM that had turned ugly, so I was somewhat on guard.

So here I am returning your smile in kind http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

A technical detail
 

Can you actually see the messages you have sent from your own turn? As I understand it, you'd need the good Reverend's turn for that! I guess you could see from the .2h file the number of messages that have been sent, but not what their content is, for what that's worth.
