World of Geometry
Worthy Heroes

First is the map, latter is a mod. You need to extract the first to your map directory at your dominions directory, and the latter to your dominions directory (it already contains the mods directory assignment itself so at least Winrar can unpack it correctly if you use the dom directory).

The mod needs to be turned on. It can be done at Preferences menu.

When you have your Pretender ready, send it to the host (Llamabeast'll inform us about the proper adress, I guess). You'll find it \savedgames\newlords\ at your dominions directory, it'll look something like mid_yournation_x.2h.

When the game is ready, you'll receive .trn-file, which you have to put a directory named as the game (at /savedgames, you'll have to greate a directory /epikbattel/ (typos intended) and put the .trn-file you'll receive from host there. Then, start dominions, select play existing game, play your turn and select save and exit. At the game directory, you'll now find a file that has the game name and ending .2h (for example, epikbattel.2h). This you send to host. Then host waits for all the files and runs a turn and sents the trn-files and so on.

Hope it became clear. Llamabeast'll fill out if I missed anything or was wrong / vague in something.

So, I've decided the game name will be EpikBattel. Let's set the Pretender deadline on friday of this week; I believe all who have signed have that much time at some point.

Llamabeast will tell all the adresses needed for playing the game; here is the monitoring site for his server, so you can see who have done their turns or who have yet to send their pretenders and so on.
