Trinity - Newbie game - Finished - Avari/Ulm wins!
Due to popular demand, I'm starting up a third newbie game! Looking for players with 0-3 games experience for a friendly intro to Dominions MP, using standard mods and settings.
I wrote up an intro to Dominions MP and you may also be interested in some of the conversation from the Boot Camp thread. Settings Age: MA Players: 8 Banned nations: water nations and Ashdod Hosting: llamaserver - llamaserver FAQ is here Hosting interval: 24 hours up to turn 20, 48 hours up to turn 40, 72 hours from then on Mods: CBM 1.6 and EDM 1.1 Map: Parganos (dead seas version - this means you can conquer sea provinces but they will not provide gold/gem income) Hall of Fame: 15 All other settings default Note: Apparently PM's are turned off by default when you create your forum account. You'll want them on as this is a much quicker way to conduct diplomacy than the in-game message system. Player Roster Abysia - puntocom - UTC +1 Bandar Log - Marmaduke - UTC +2 C'tis - Drog the Destroyer - UTC +2 Caelum - iRFNA - UTC -6 Ulm - Avari - UTC +2 Jotunheim - Hylobius - UTC -5 Pangaea - Drog the Destroyer - UTC +2 (previously CarlixTomix) Shinuyama - Ragnoff - UTC -5 |
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Recruiting!
I'll take Jotunheim please. Thanks for doing this Valerius.

Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Recruiting!
Hi!
I'm interested in this game, and i have a friend who is interested too, but he is registering in the forum now. His name is CarlixTomix and he will with Pangea. I will play with Abysia. Bye. |
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Recruiting!
I just got the game this week, I would love to try Fomoria for my First game if I may

This game is set for MA, although I really don't care what age it is. You'll need an EA or all ages game to play fomoria. |
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Recruiting!
Hylobius, puntocom and CarlixTomix, you are all signed up.
Ragnoff, is there a middle age nation you'd be interested in? |
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Recruiting!
Yes, but I don't know what it is yet!
I will figure something out tonight |
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Recruiting!
Ok, I'll reserve a spot for you, nation TBD.
|
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Recruiting!
I will take Shinuyama please
|
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Recruiting!
Hello, I would like to play Bandar Log!
|
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Recruiting!
I'd like to join. I'll take C'tis.
|
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Recruiting!
Hi all,
If you still have a spot open, I'd love to give Pythium a go. |
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Design pretenders
Marmaduke, Drog the Destroyer you are both signed up. Nightfall, sorry but I'm afraid Drog posted a few seconds before you.
I'll setup the game on the llamaserver soon. |
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Design pretenders
:doh:
No problem. |
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Design pretenders
Ok, the game is setup on the llamaserver and ready for pretenders.
|
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Design pretenders
Pretender sent. As you can see from the roster, I'll be the one playing Ulm. Hello & good luck everyone!
|
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Design pretenders
Pretender sent, this should be exciting - it's my first MP game.
Good luck everybody and a special thanks to Valerius for taking the time and effort to arrange this. |
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Design pretenders
Pretender sent, Shinu here, may first multiplayer too!
Is there any way to get this map to take a look at (I know we have a non adjusted one, i would like the adjusted one), The link on lamiaserver goes to a seemingly unrelated post. |
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Design pretenders
Alright, I'm in. Ragnoff, try this post.
|
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Design pretenders
Jotunheim pretender sent. It's my first MP as well.
|
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Design pretenders
Hello!
I sent my pretender, and my friend is doing it now! Bye |
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Design pretenders
Wow, you guys are quick! Already 7/8 pretenders in.
I turned off the autostart feature to avoid a mishap like we had in First Blood, where a pretender was submitted by someone who didn't sign up for the game. CarlixTomix, let me know when your pretender is in and I'll start the game. |
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Design pretenders
woot, all 8 signed up!
|
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Design pretenders
Ok, the game has begun! Have fun!
Puntocom, I don't see CarlixTomix on the list of forum members. Is he still waiting for his account to be approved? It would make diplomacy easier if everyone had a forum account so I just want to confirm that he will set one up. And everyone please make sure that PMs are turned on (they are off by default when you create your account). |
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Design pretenders
That's a lot of titles you've got on your pretender, c'tis.
You bastard. |
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Design pretenders
Caelum worships the pretender Sarah Palin, Lady of Chaos, Patron of Liars, Queen of Insects.
Half a mouthful of beer just came up my nose :D |
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Design pretenders
I had to read that 3 times to be sure of what I was seeing!
|
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Design pretenders
Are the province names virtually unreadable to anyone else? For me there are the same color as the map. Is it a setting I need to change?
|
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Design pretenders
I think it's the map file itself that determines that color? You can at least read the names up top if you select them...
And what's with the crowns? I found 5, do we gotta catch em all or something? |

Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Design pretenders
Hello,
sorry for the waiting, my friend has a little problem with the e-mail. Now i'm going to the university, and after we will send the turns. Sorry about that. Bye |
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Design pretenders
So active, so restless, these pretenders without enough faith in their servants that they are stirring already! Only 2 had faith, only 2 allow their servants time to properly prepare for their arrival....
|
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Design pretenders
I will be away from my computer from Friday to Sunday evening. I think I will be able to play a turn on Friday before evening (in Europe), and then the next possible time will be late on Sunday.
Is it possible to skip the turn on Saturday? Otherwise I would be looking for a temporary sub (MA Bandar Log). Otherwise I would stale. |

Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Design pretenders
I had problems with the forum account and it's activaction.
I'm sincerely sorry because of my delay. Now everything is ok. I will send the second turn in a few hours. Thank you very much. |
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Design pretenders
Welcome, CarlixTomix!
Marmaduke, I think it makes sense to put the game on hold Saturday rather than look for a one turn sub. Please let me know when you are leaving on Friday and I'll postpone the next hosting until Sunday (say, 23:00 GMT?). |
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Design pretenders
Thanks Valerius, I will PM you on Friday then.
|
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Design pretenders
I found it quite humorous that at about 530 Eastern on Monday five or six of the eight players were hanging out online in the Shrapnel forums and a bunch of us had just recently submitted our turns. We are sitting about hoping that Ulm happens to login and submit so that we can do another set of turns!
You think most of us are excited about being in a multiplayer game? |
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Design pretenders
I desperately want to refudiate any claims of misunderestimating my Shakespearean prose.

I've mentioned this a bunch of times recently so I may be repeating myself but just a reminder that if you are the last person to send in your turn (check the llamaserver to determine this), wait a few minutes for the game to host and then immediately complete your next turn (since turns only take a few minutes to complete). This really helps keep the game moving early on (especially when you consider that people are in different time zones) and that gets everyone into the game. :) |
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Design pretenders
It is nice to have an enthusiastic bunch and have the game move along quickly. I'm already seeing dark candles on the horizon.

Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Running
LOL do realize I was ribbing you! we are scattered all over so no one can reasonably assume anyone else will post at any minute, or even that they are awake!
I am sharing your frustration as it will likely be hours before i can open the turn to see what happened, let alone record my next one.... |
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Running
Please, help...
I don't know how , but... the menu of the commanders in the current province (in the left side of the screen) isn't there... I can't give orders to my commanders. T.T How can I solve this? Thank you very much, and I'm sorry because of my noob question. ^^U |
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Running
That's weird.. Try saving, closing dom, and restarting?..
|
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Running
the lower case "h" button shows/hides the right side menu
|
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Running
Well... restarting the game it became normal again.
It was weird. ^^U |
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Running
oh abysia, pulling an ulm on us
|
Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Running
Caelum delivers fine Parganian literature, very fun to read.

Re: Trinity - Newbie game - Running
I am wondering what time zone folks are in. I am on the East Cost of the US in eastern standard, based on when some things have happened a think there are a few others who are nearby time-wise, but there is another group that I would assume are not in North America...
It might be interesting to know if someone did not answer a last minute diplo request not because they were preparing to attack you, but just because it is the middle of the night where they are! So where are we all? (if you want to post I will update the list below...) Abysia - puntocom ? Bandar Log - Marmaduke ? C'tis - Drog the Destroyer ? Caelum - iRFNA ? Ulm - Avari ? Jotunheim - Hylobius ? Pangaea - CarlixTomix ? Shinuyama - Ragnoff - Eastern Time (US & Canada), UTC - 5:00 |
All times are GMT -4. The time now is 09:41 PM. |
