Tiny Crowded World - EA - Ctis - Bullock Winner !
 

Another game for Noobs and intermediate players. (< 15 MP games)

They will be 3 specificities for this game:

- Diplo oriented: If you don t like diplo stuff, this game isn't for you.(because you are going to be dogpiled :))
- Easy research (unless majority want normal, say your choice when you subscribe)
- Fast paced: turn length will start at 24h then 36h later on but should be caped to this.No postponing unless you have a very, very good reason. (holidays are not since it s planned). Try to find a sub if you can't play (or at least warn me so i can try to find one)

Also, i ll do a quick check on profile allowing to enter only those with an empty police record to make a smooth game.

Now about nations: All but water nations are allowed and if you want to pick one from a mod you are allowed to. (Unless there is some doubts about the balancing)

Players: 10
Era: EA
Map: Streamlands - 93 lands, 10 Seas - http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?yi1rrthia9p86hr (updated link, Thanks to Shatner for the corrections)
Magic site freq: 55

Renaming On
Graph Off
Hall of Fame 15
Everything else set as default
Mods: CBM 1.84 (plus maybe some nation mods)

Please send me a PM or post into the forum before going AI. (you shouldn't go AI 'til you are totally defenseless => send your last troops trying to inflict maximum damage)
Game exploits are also forbidden (Bogus orders and so ...)

First to pick first served.
You can change nation until we start the game.

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Recruiting
 

Agartha, please.

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Recruiting
 

Sounds like a great game concept.

I ran a game on Streamlands a year or two ago and found a few map errors - connections where there should/should not be. I posted them to the map thread. I don't know if the corrections got incorporated into the canonical files for that map.

Now I have to wrestle with my conscience about whether or not to join in the game. Argh.

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Recruiting
 

Oooh you are right aaminoff. There is still few errors on the map.
I ll try to do make the corrections myself. (never tried though)
Btw why you wouldn't join us ? ;)

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Recruiting
 

There are a few versions of streamlands running around, including one by Maerlande with i think all of them fixed and set starts. you might want to check it out

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Recruiting
 

I'd like to join as Mictlan.

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Recruiting
 

I'll give Lanka a go.

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Recruiting
 

Well, I wrestled with my conscience and won. Let me tentatively say Caelum. I may have to drop out before the finalization of players, but I think I will be OK.

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Recruiting
 

I would love to join the game. But why no water nations?
If you allow it, I will take Atlantis.

edit: nevermind, I take Hellheim

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Recruiting
 

I don t want water nation because they have 10 sea province guaranteed while people on land will have less than that and will have to fight hard to keep them. Also they can move too easily anywhere on the map trough lakes and rivers.
In brief i think they will have too many advantages on such a game with this map.

Btw i m glad to see u in.

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Recruiting
 

I'll join. I'd like to give Yomi a shot.

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Recruiting
 

Sounds fun, T'ien Chi please.

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Recruiting
 

I'd like to join. I'll decide on a nation later.

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Recruiting
 

I'll take Mictlan please.

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Recruiting
 

Only one spot left !
i ll create the game shortly you can work on your pretender now. (prolly on gandalf serv so you need a password on it)

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Recruiting
 

I'll need a couple of days to get my pretender designed, but if I can I would like to play as Abysia.

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Recruiting
 

Great we are full and ready to start.
The game should be opened today, i will update the main post with the address soon, expecting to be able to start it this WE.

Gentlemen get your pretender ready !

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Recruiting
 

Ok guys game is UP:
http://www.llamaserver.net/gameinfo...._crowded_world

The link in the main page of the map has been updated. (Dunno what would happen if you use the old one ... so don t forget!)

Has you can notice i ve finally made the game on Llamaser so you don't need password anymore. If you have already done your pretender, please do it again without pass.

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Send pretenders in !
 

Will you accept one more player or is this game allready full? Would be very interested to join!
Greetings Herbiedu

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Send pretenders in !
 

Lol that s going to be very crowded :)
Ok but you are the very last one.

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Send pretenders in !
 

11 players on streamlands? Time to gear my build toward a rush I guess. :D

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Send pretenders in !
 

I'm going to switch over to Niefelheim.

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Send pretenders in !
 

Never mind back to Lanka again.

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Send pretenders in !
 

Fine i'm going for Ulm then.

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Send pretenders in !
 

Is there an other link to the map? It does not work attm.

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Send pretenders in !
 

the link is working for me.
otherwise you can dl it on llamaserver (last map of the list if i m right)

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Send pretenders in !
 

Are you sure llamaserver has the most current file with corrected adjacencies?

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Send pretenders in !
 

Yeah i uploaded it.

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Send pretenders in !
 

I downloaded the map file from the link in the first post. I seem to be missing these connections:

91-95
34-33 (near a mountain, but there is clearly a border)
52-54 (water province)

We can just live with the map as it is, but I really like this map and would love to see it fixed for the future.

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Send pretenders in !
 

Check and make sure you have the *.tga files as well as the *.map on the main page. Presumably the corrections are just to the map file.

You get both files at:
http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/attac...3&d=1273362377 Just make sure to then replace the *.map file with the corrected one.

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Send pretenders in !
 

I'm going to withdraw, I can't seem to put together a pretender that works on a crowded EA map and a new game has just opened up that looks like it would be a better fit for me.

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Send pretenders in !
 

If Catquite risigns than we are full and ready to start arent we?

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Send pretenders in !
 

Lanka has been deleted.
We are still waiting for one pretender.

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Send pretenders in !
 

91-95 is fine to me
34-33 A link could have been done here indeed.
52-54 Here too.

But the 2 missing links are arguable.

If a skilled person want to make the changes before we start, fine. Otherwise we are going like that. ;)

We are actually waiting for longbrodie.

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Send pretenders in !
 

Did you write a PM to Longbrodie? How log are we gonna wait for him until we defenetly start?
I'm just asking because he did not react at all since his massage that he wanted to join and decide on a nation later.

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Send pretenders in !
 

No but i will pm him.
I m planning to start the game today anyway.

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - Send pretenders in !
 

Sorry for the delay, I was traveling all day yesterday. I decided to go with Fomoria. Finishing up my pretender now.

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - (Running)
 

OK, who cast Hurricane on all the New England provinces? Since I'm playing Caelum, I have the paths and the gems, but I live there, so duh, I'm not going to drop it on myself. I don't think anyone else has A3 paths, so someone must have taken A3 on their pretender and done some early site searching. :D

Anyway, seriously, if there are massive winds and power/network outages that might be a legitimate reason I won't be able to get in my turn on Sunday evening/Monday.

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - (Running)
 

Yeah it could be :)

Well i will switch a little earlier to 36h/turn and will be vigilant in case your about to stall. If any1 is in the same case let me know it.

And good luck to all our American friends to go trough this weather event.

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - (Running)
 

Without a warning the evil and hideous irondemigod of Ulm threw his horde upon my on-eyed, peacefull giants. As the one and only true god, Fron of Agarhta descended againt them, they dropped their weapons of malign and loath, and ran. But not very far.

...so it begins....

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - (Running)
 

Could you postpone for 12H or so, it seems something came up for Caelum.

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - (Running)
 

what let you think that ?

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - (Running)
 

Time was runing out.

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - (Running)
 

I'm not sure if you did grant me a delay or not, I thought I made all the deadlines. I have been with limited internet connectivity but sufficient to get in my turns.

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - (Running)
 

I'm away until sunday evening and can't submit my turn, but please force hosting and don't wait for me. I can't do anything anyways and I will be dead in 1 or 2 turns. Was a nice and quick game :)

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - (Running)
 

Given your position you could set yourself to AI, I don't think it would make a difference. Only then you won't get to watch the final few battles. :)

Thanks for a fun and exciting war.

Re: Tiny Crowded World - EA - (Running)
 

One eyed giants from the deepest but clean and well lighted caves under the earth would like to know what are the current alliances and whos fighting with who?
