Opossum - Started
1 Attachment(s)
It's been quite a while since I ran a game for new/newish players - so I thought I would get one going. This game will run on my automated PBEM server ( www.llamaserver.net ).
This'll be an MA game, played on a modified version of Parganos I've made (attached). It's similar to the normal Parganos map, but I've reassigned the terrain types a bit to make it a bit fairer (so one person doesn't start in an endless swamp, for instance). There's room for 7 land nations and one water nation, but I'd actually prefer not to use the water nation spot. The timer will be on 24 hour quickhost (i.e. it hosts when all turns are in or after 24 hours, whichever is sooner). Once we reach mid game and the turns start to take longer the timer can be extended to 48 hours if people prefer. Required level of newishness: Up to you! If you don't feel it would be unfair to play against new players, you're welcome. Probably you'll have played 0, 1 or 2 MP games or so. Please post and say what nation you'd like! Make sure you read other people's posts to check your nation hasn't already been taken. Oh, one thing: No Vanheim, just to prevent upsetting double-bless instant knockouts. To upload your pretenders: - Make sure you don't have any pretender-affecting mods (e.g. Conceptual Balance) enabled - Go to Game Tools -> Create a pretender god in Dominions - Go to the savedgames/newlords folder in the dominions directory, and find your pretender file (e.g. mid_pythium_0.2h) - E-mail the file to: pretenders[ at ]llamaserver[ dot ]net - Crucially, you must have the game name 'Opossum' in the subject line of your e-mail The players are: Pythium - Chicanist Man - DryaUnda Abysia - Zylithan C'tis - TrajanX Marignon - JanIm Shinuyama - Potatoman Ermor - carlosib ---- Players who will be saved a spot if they want it for next newbie game, probably in a couple of weeks or so. ? - Forsooth Ulm/Machaka - duke_commando Jotunheim - Ubercat |

Re: Opossum - Game for new/newish players (recruit
I'd like to play! Not sure what nation yet, need to think about it a bit more.
Despite my 2003 registration date, I've only played in 1.5 MP games (got Helheim rushed in the first one), so I'm still new to MP Dominions. |
Re: Opossum - Game for new/newish players (recruiting)
I'd like to play. I'll pick my nation later if possible.
Thanks http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif |
Re: Opossum - Game for new/newish players (recruit
Wow, you're all fast.
Potatoman, you reminded me - I think I will ban Vanheim, as I don't want someone to get bless rushed. Not a lot of fun that. I think Vanheim is the only real offender in MA though. |
Re: Opossum - Game for new/newish players (recruit
Okay, theoretically got seven already, but I haven't had confirmation from the first four (and one of them appears to be completely out of contact), so please carry on signing up. If I get significantly too many players I'll start an overspill game in a couple of weeks or so.

Re: Opossum - Game for new/newish players (recruit
Um.. how about Abysia? I've never done MA or MP, so it should be a learning experience.

Re: Opossum - Game for new/newish players (recruit
I'll go with Ermor if available.
