Re: CherryMod Thread
I enjoy mods personally. They add variety to the game, let you experience new things, and certainly add life to a game. As for making multiplayer more difficult, I disagree. I have participated in many multiplayer games on platforms that support heavy modding. Generally a short hand is developed to specify the terms of the game which makes things go fairly quickly during setup. It does help if the game developers place some code in the game to verify that everyone is using the same config files (ie acting as an honest broker that everyone has the same setup), but this is certainly not required. Frequently, known cheaters and abUsers become outcasts and can only find games with fellow cheaters and abUsers.
P.S. I also would love to see a tolkien themed mod. I could see it being a fun mod, especially if you made sauron have a ton of troops etc. with the allied races of good forced to confront him. It could be a great strategic and tactical challenge.
