Oh man this looks so cool. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/redface.gif If anyone drops..... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

BTW just a note, in the rules you may wish to state no Wishing away other people's artifacts. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif Maybe you already covered that to your satisfaction, but..... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Also Mictlan might enjoy a couple Jade Daggers.

Cheers.

I had such a traumatic experience as MA Caelum in RandRedux (sandwiched between 2 giant bless rush nations) that I get the shakes just thinking of Caelum in any age.

WraithLord July 25th, 2008 04:13 AM

Re: The Artifacts Game - [nation selection]
 
So when and where are the pretenders due?

Ironhawk July 25th, 2008 05:47 PM

Re: The Artifacts Game - [nation selection]
 
Llamabeast has agreed to host this game for us. However he is away this weekend, returning monday. So the earliest we can submit pretenders will be sometime Monday when he has time to put it together. In an optimal world we could perhaps get it on Sunday night? But I would more realistically count on Monday.

Use the weekend to refine your pretender builds and starting strats...

Lingchih July 26th, 2008 12:10 AM

Re: The Artifacts Game - [nation selection]
 
There is a newer version of the Antilarium map than the one that is linked in the first post. It was posted to the Maps and Mods Forum last month by Psientist. I guess he re-did some of the graphics, and fixed some bugs. Version 1.01

It may be that he just made changes to the .map file. Not sure.

calmon July 26th, 2008 02:43 AM

Re: The Artifacts Game - [nation selection]
 
And don't forget - like me at first - that we're using CB mod!

This makes this human pretender creation a lot more fun http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

btw ironhawk please check thats all the items modded in the game are written correctly (or do you use Ids?). There are a lot of typing errors in the item list posted here. 'Sunslayer' instead of 'Sun Slayer', 'Rime Haubrek' instead of 'Rime Hauberk' to mention my own nation errors.

I just doesn't want a restart because anyone misses a promised item http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/smile.gif

We both went over them a few times, hopefully we got all the errors.

calmon July 26th, 2008 02:56 AM

Re: The Artifacts Game - [nation selection]
 
If you send us the new .map file we all can doublecheck at least some of the nations.

OK, here's the map file (start locations are not the real ones).

Ironhawk July 26th, 2008 03:22 AM

Re: The Artifacts Game - [nation selection]
 
Yeah both QM and I looked over the items and caught several errors. It appears complete now but having more eyes on it couldn't hurt. The starting locations will be decided by a third party (Sheap) just prior to the game so that no one has any advance information.

calmon July 26th, 2008 07:17 AM

Re: The Artifacts Game - [nation selection]
 
Arco: Ok
Man: misses 2 Eye of Aiming
Atlantis: misses 1 bottle of water

I test the rest when i find the time.

Amhazair July 26th, 2008 08:35 AM

Re: The Artifacts Game - [nation selection]
 
Marignon misses absolutely nothing.
Mictlan misses 4 heart of life

To add my two rusty coins of unknown denomination. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

calmon July 26th, 2008 09:02 AM

Re: The Artifacts Game - [nation selection]
 
You need to use the mod amhazair. The modded Monkeys have 3 arms and the Sword of justice. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

But the 4 heart life are missed. Its in the map file but the apes have only 2 misc slots.

Amhazair July 26th, 2008 09:28 AM

Re: The Artifacts Game - [nation selection]
 
Damn, I was convinced I had it enabled. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif

Ah, well. That's what I get for trying to be helpful.
After living with myself for almost 29 years you'd guess I'd have learned that I am absolutely unable to check things thoroughly, without making mistakes of my own, but I keep refusing to believe it. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif

calmon July 26th, 2008 09:47 AM

Re: The Artifacts Game - [nation selection]
 
Ok, i checked all nations:

Arco: Ok
Man: miss 2 Eye of Aiming (not in map file)
Ulm: Ok
Marignon: Ok
Mictlan: miss 4 heart of life (in map file but 3 items for misc slots)
TC: Ok
Jomon: misses The Ruby Eye (typo its wrongly 'Ruby Eye' instead of 'The Ruby Eye' in map file)
Agartha: Ok
Abysia: misses O'al Kan's Sceptre (typo in map file 'er' instead 're')
Caelum: Ok
C'Tis: Ok
Pan: Ok
Midgard: Ok
Utgard: Ok
Patala: Ok
Gath: Ok
Atlantis: misses 1 bottle of water (not in map file)

Wow, nice catches guys! Just goes to show that when you look at something too long you start to glaze over things. I'll fix those now...

Ok, corrections made. New .map file is attached to this post. Everybody let me know if you see anything out of place.

calmon July 26th, 2008 03:38 PM

Re: The Artifacts Game - [nation selection]
 
Now it looks fine!

I learned in 2-3 nation evaluation tests games 3 days ago that it is a pain to write and give all the artifacts corectly. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

CUnknown July 26th, 2008 05:21 PM

Re: The Artifacts Game - [nation selection]
 
One question about cursed artifacts such as Palatia's dimensional rod ... Is it going to be given to that commander dude, or put in my vault to start when the real game starts? Otherwise, it is useless, pretty much .. I won't be able to get it off that 10hp commander.

How will this work?

quantum_mechani July 26th, 2008 05:23 PM

Re: The Artifacts Game - [nation selection]
 
Just hit change form on the monkey.

calmon July 26th, 2008 05:57 PM

Re: The Artifacts Game - [nation selection]
 
Wait a second, you modded the sea with a lot of commanders and units nearly impossible to attack?

If this is true maybe you should have mention this in your first post?

Do you know what a crap LA atlantis is without the possibility to conquer the seas and do you see that even without that knowledge nobody but me picked it first and i by myself was really undecided!

So please take the ocean changes back. You should have written something about it before people chose the nations.

Rathar July 26th, 2008 06:36 PM

Re: The Artifacts Game - [nation selection]
 
Impossible to attack? I am not understanding your meaning. Could you elucidate please. I'm not sure what you mean by ocean changes for instance.
