BERING (Running)
 
Hello:

This game is on the map I finished recently, called �Bering�. It is a map for 7 players (2 water, 5 land). The map has preset starting positions that are randomly assigned. You can find the map here: Bering map thread

The settings are as follows:

Play by email (not a server game)
Era: Early
Map: Bering
Mods: Conceptual Balance (Full)
Indies: 7
Research: Default
Victory condition: There will be 7 victory point provinces (one in each capital). The player who controls 4 out of 7 will be the winner.
Graphs: on
Gold/Resources: default
Renaming on
HOF: 15
Turn hosting schedule: Turns 1 - 15, Daily; Turn 16 - End, 3/week on Sundays, Tuesdays and Thursdays (deadline at 9 pm Boston time).
Number of players: 7 (2 water, 5 land)

Players:

1. Pashadawg: Agartha
2. djo: Lanka
3. Aezeal: Niefelhiem
4. Charshep: Atlantis
5. GrungeBringer: Sauro
6. named: R'lyeh
7. DryaUnda: Hinnom

Jolly note: I think it is very fun when players spice things up with role playing. Trash talk, witty banter, yarnspinning and crazy choices are encouraged. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Thanks.

Pasha

Niefel plz

as usually I'd like to go for 15 hof spots (I'd love so much more)

PS the hosting will be quickhost I hope so if pplz are fast the game is faster too ?

Re: PBEM Game: BERING (Open for players)
 
Hi Aezeal:

15 HOF spots would work.

The game would not be quickhosted. I host by hand the old fashioned way (with an automator script). So, pretty much the hostings will be in the evening when turns are due. Although sometimes on the weekend, etc., we can squeeze out a few extra turns if folks are eager beavers.

Nice map! Any room for a n00b? I've played a handful of SP games and was involved in an MP game for a few months before the servers went down. I played Atlantis in that one. It seemed like a challenging nation to play but I'd like to try them again.

GrudgeBringer July 18th, 2008 10:48 PM

Re: PBEM Game: BERING (Open for players)
 
I'd like Sauro if you have room if its CBM....I'm a real NOOB tho so if you feel that I am outclassed i won't take offense

PashaDawg July 18th, 2008 10:48 PM

Re: PBEM Game: BERING (Open for players)
 
You're certainly welcome to play, Charshep. Maybe another noob can play the other water slot, so you won't be an obvious target. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

PashaDawg July 18th, 2008 10:51 PM

Re: PBEM Game: BERING (Open for players)
 
You're welcome, too, GrungeBringer.

Re: PBEM Game: BERING (Open for players)
 
i'll take r'lyeh i've never actually played a MP game although i signed up for a couple others this week

PashaDawg July 18th, 2008 11:15 PM

Re: PBEM Game: BERING (Open for players)
 
Great. Welcome, namad.

One slot left. It would be good if we could get one more player with a bit more experience to balance things out a bit. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

charshep July 18th, 2008 11:37 PM

Re: PBEM Game: BERING (Open for players)
 
Great! Two quick questions. Do I need the mod installed on my box or does only the host need it? Also, when do you want our pretenders by?

PashaDawg July 18th, 2008 11:44 PM

Re: PBEM Game: BERING (Open for players)
 
Good questions, Charshep.

You need to have the complete mod enabled when you create your pretender. That is essential, or else we'll need to restart.

The game is filling up very fast! So, maybe we'll start this Sunday night? We'll see. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: PBEM Game: BERING (Open for players)
 
I really love the look of the Bering map, so I am interested in playing if there is a spot left. Nation TBA!

AlgaeNymph July 19th, 2008 12:10 AM

Re: PBEM Game: BERING (Open for players)
 
I want Hinnom!

...

Wait, did somebody take the last spot before I did?

charshep July 19th, 2008 12:16 AM

Re: PBEM Game: BERING (Open for players)
 
Where can I get the mod?

PashaDawg July 19th, 2008 12:30 AM

Re: PBEM Game: BERING (Open for players)
 
Welcome Foodstamp.

Sorry DryaUnda. Foodstamp elbowed his way in. I'll keep you in mind in case someone drops out before we get started.

The mod is here: CB Mod Thread

PashaDawg July 19th, 2008 12:40 AM

Re: PBEM Game: BERING (Open for players)
 
Okay. Now that we have a full roster, I'd ask that each player send me a PM with his/her email address (unless you know I already have it). I will then send you mine.

Once you have my email, you can send me your pretender file. It will be a .2h file in your newlords folder. I will send further instructions via email, etc.

Thanks.

Will

Getting a core dump after enabling and trying to create a new game:

N�got gick fel!
name2spell: no such spell!!
N�got gick fel!
name2spell: no such spell!!

Sorry to be such a n00b but any ideas what's wrong? The mod logo shows up correctly in the corner of the splash screen.

BTW, I'm on Linux. Don't know if that matters or not (I hope not). Files look fine after unzipping them.

*Just* noticed that I'm not. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/redface.gif Installing it now.

Foodstamp July 19th, 2008 01:35 AM

Re: PBEM Game: BERING (Open for players)
 
I'm going to give my spot up to DryaUnda. This map looks like a lot of fun but for the life of me I cannot decide on a nation. I will send him a PM.

djo July 19th, 2008 07:59 AM

Re: PBEM Game: BERING (Open for players)
 
I'm going to take Lanka.

PashaDawg July 19th, 2008 08:42 AM

Re: PBEM Game: BERING (Open for players)
 
Ok, Foodstamp. Maybe next time, Foodstamp. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

DryaUnda: You're in if still interested.

Oy, oy. Those two plus Niefelheim and Sauro. It seems you're up to a challanging early game with Agartha Pasha. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif

Have fun.

...and Niefelheim, and Sauromatia is no early slouch either.

This game resembles an SP game I have going--monsters vs. Sauromatia.

Re: PBEM Game: BERING (Open for players)
 
Bah! We are not afraid!! Agartha will rule. The pale ones will destroy our enemies with wise cunning. They'll be cryin' for their mamas.

Aezeal July 19th, 2008 10:22 AM

Re: PBEM Game: BERING (Open for players)
 
well thanks for pointing that out.. I'll be sure to send a Jotun scout to the swamps to let them know where the Hydra's should go to http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Let's be honest.. all those races are strong early game but Hinnom and Lanka have a much stronger end game.. if you live to mid game then it'll be between those 2 races.

Anyway Hinnom is just a bunch of newbie giants, an impurity of the race and should be destroyed.. and I don't care much for Demons either despoilers of the world, just not natural, a lot of them are to big too.. more fake giants.

Vote Aezeal of the Niefel party for GOD-election: for 1 race of giants to rule the lesser humanoid races.

Hello:

I have email addresses for djo, Aezeal, Charshep, and Grungbringer. I have an older email for DryaUnda, which I assume is still okay.

I need namad's email still.

Re: Send pretenders
 
I sent in the pretender...I think you said you will send back an e-mail letting me know you got it.

you might also think about just putting in a post of who has sent in stuff so we get a feel for when we can look for a turn ect (but I think you have all this under control already so pardon my NOOB suggestions if they have already been covered like 100 times!!)
