Feohtan - Game started! Uploading pretenders.
1 Attachment(s)
Patch v3.14 is out, and llamabeast has set the game up. We are good to go!
Once pretenders are uploaded, the first turn will be set to 48 hours, and then it will be 24-hour quickhost until at least Turn 20. Once three people request it, I can extend the quickhost to 48 hours. With llamabeast's endorsement (and a big thank-you to him too!) in the Valhalla forums, I'm going to set up an EA game played on the Llamaserver. Shooting for 12 players--10 land + 2 water--so we can use my starting locations in Edi's Cradle map. All setting standard, except Graphs Off and Renaming On (Note: there will be independents in this game, for those that know this map from Forseti.) Worthy Heroes v1.8 will be the only mod. If you stale twice in a row without contacting me or posting in the thread, you will be put on AI immediately. The map will be Edi's modified version of Cradle, to which I have added fixed starting positions, to prevent unbalanced random starts (as much as possible, anyways). Here are the changes I made to Edi's Cradle Map: --The starting provinces are: 76 (Oceania or Atlantis), 78 (R'lyeh or Atlantis), 18, 38, 37, 103, 99, 207, 172, 196, 148, 131. --All the land nations will be assigned random starts from the above list when the game begins. --For start 37, provinces 37, 41, and 54 are no longer Waste, 41 becomes a Border Mountain, and 25 becomes a Forest. --For start 38, provinces 38 and 39 are no longer Waste. --For start 103, province 93 becomes a Forest as well as Farm, and 94 becomes a Border Mountain. Let's get signed up, pretenders in, and have some fun! Players: Mictlan - IndyPendant Sauromatia - Digress Fomoria - FAJ Ermor - DryaUnda C'tis - Wraithlord Marverni - Aethyr Vanheim - Valerius Lanka - Parcelt Oceania - klagrok R'lyeh - Meglobob Niefelheim - Jurri Pangea - Baalz |
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
Could I give Sauromatia a run.
|
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
I would like to try Fomoria
|
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
I'll give Ermor another try.
|
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
Gah I really want to join another game, but I dont know if I can handle it.
Also Ill be going to Japan and I dont know how often I can do turns, its up to the girlfriend. :O |
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
I'd like to take Ctis.
|
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
I would like to play EA Mictlan.
|
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
Marverni please.
|
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
I've updated the original post to cover who's joined so far. We're halfway there! Still need two water nations, though.
Folket, I took Mictlan, sorry. Did you want to try another nation? |
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
Vanheim please.
|
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
I'll be Lanka.
|
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
Ill be Oceania http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif
|
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
R'lyeh please.
|
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
Only two land nations left! Hopefully Folket gets back with a new nation before two more sign up...
|
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
I'll play! Let's say... Niefelheim.
|
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
Er, I'll play if Folket doesn't want to pick from the remaining nations, but by all means I'll bow out if he wants to play. Say Pangea...
|
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
Well, I can't set anything up for another 12 hours or so. I want another look at the Cradle map before I hand it over to llamabeast.
Let's say we give Folket that much time to respond, and if he doesn't, Baalz is in! Either way, I'll be PM'ing llamabeast in half a day's time with the details. |
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
If anyone drops out, I'd be interested in Arco or T'ien.
|
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
Thrawn, we'll make a note in case anyone doesn't upload a pretender. Folket, I'm sorry but you haven't gotten back to us to change your nation. Baalz, welcome to the game! (And...*yipe*. ; )
I've uploaded the .map file we'll be using in my original post above (I decided not to make any additional changes for now, other than those I have already listed). I have PM'd llamabeast to give him the specs for the game, and let him know we're ready to go! |
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
rumor says next patch is imminent. would it be a good idea to start the game with it and save all the hassle of upgrading while in game?
|
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
Hmm...we could wait until Friday and see. I don't want to wait longer though, for risk of losing players. And for all we know, the new patch could wreck Worthy Heroes 1.8, although I suppose it's not a big deal to play without it.
llamabeast has already created the game, but it doesn't look right. It's currently saying "Invalid Age" and "Max Players: 0". So unless people object, let's delay until Friday (or the patch comes out) before we start. |
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
I'm fine with waiting until the patch: certainly it's always nicer to avoid patching midgame.
|
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
I agree

Re: Feohtan - Recruitment closed, start held for p
Yes, lets wait for the patch, its supposed to fix dominion spread, which hopefully fixes the scales bug and thats good because on 2 out of 2 test games with EA Rlyeh I got the scales bug!
|
Re: Feohtan - Recruitment closed, start held for p
Ahmm, I'm starting to regret suggesting to wait for the patch.
The rumor was not accurate and the patch hasn't come last week . I'm now afraid if we keep on waiting that players will start to lose interest. I prefer the hassle of upgrading to new patch than the possibility of losing this game. |
Re: Feohtan - Recruitment closed, start held for p
Its being betatested at the moment, so it should be soon.

Re: Feohtan - Recruitment closed, start held for p
Patch is out! I'll PM llamabeast again, asking him to restart the game. Hopefully everyone is still in! ; )
Keep in mind it may take him a few days; he's no-doubt going to be busy making sure llamaserver transfers safely to v3.14... DryaUnda, the map is uploaded in the original post in this thread. |
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
patched and ready http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif
|
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
Hmm, well llamabeast PM'd me and said everything's already set up and ready to go. It looks like we can start uploading pretenders now!
I'll edit the original post appropriately. I'm hoping for 2-3 days to upload pretenders, then I'll set the first turn to 48 hours, then 24 hours from then on. Let's play! The world will drown in oceans of Blood. ; ) |
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
What is the procedure for uploading pretenders?
|
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
There's an explanation in my FAQ.
|
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
Thank you. Ctis pretender uploaded http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif
|
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
done and done http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif was about to explain as i just checked the FAQ http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
Fomoria sent
|
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
We're still using worthy heroes mod, yes?
|
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
Yes, according to first post.
|
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
8 joined, 4 to go! Now all we're missing is:
Sauromatia - Digress Fomoria - FAJ Marverni - Aethyr Vanheim - Valerius And yes, we will be using the Worthy Heroes v1.8 mod. |
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
I sent my god to the e-mail address, with the name of the game in it. I don't know why I would be missing.
|
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
Ah, you aren't missing anymore. Your pretender was probably just received and updated after my post. No worries.
3 to go! |
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
Make it 0 to go....looks like 12 to me http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif
|
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
Yep. I PM'd llamabeast early this morning. All up to him now, and then we'll get the email.
|
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
allrighty.... so when do we start?
|
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
Hmm...almost two days now, and llamabeast has made some other posts. That's not like him; maybe some wires got crossed or something.
I will *poke* him and see if anything happens. |
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
*eep*, I seem to have been poked!
Sorry, I have been a naughty llama. I did actually get your first message but I think I was feeling flustered with work at the time (I probably shouldn't read my PMs *at* work, particularly when feeling flustered) and so it failed to record in my memory properly, if you know what I mean. I'm just teaching in a couple of hours so have to do some emergency marking (and in fact learning!), then I'll get on the case. |
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
Apologies for the further delay, I was a bad llama again.
However, the game has now started! Hopefully you'll all have received your first turns. The first turn has 48 hours on the clock, and subsequent turns will have 24 unless/until IndyPendant changes the timer. Enjoy the game! |
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
Oops, did a restart, since the first time I hadn't set it up to use worthy heroes properly. Use the turn file from the second e-mail you receive.
|
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
This turn something very strange has happened to me.
I was attacked by Vanheim in one of my provinces. This is not surprising since we're at war. What I find very strange is that I was attacked at the heart of my kingdom in a province in which all the neighboring provinces are controlled by me. Of course, if the attacking army was the usual Van stuff I wouldn't have found it strange but that army contained, among else, eight elephants. Now, last time I checked elephants didn't have glamour, nor any stealth ability so I'm really puzzled. How come??? |
Re: Feohtan - EA game, Open
Sailing maybe? Or is the province completely inland?
