I don't care if you want to apply game conditions- only water gods, only rainbows.. only left handed red haired stepchildren.

But after that let people play as they want.

It would be interesting if all 3 teams were all the same nations, for example bogarus, mictlan, and Ermor. Or whatever.

I'd also like to suggest using the BDS mod: No bogus random sites.

Thanks for your input Chris. You hate themes? I love themes. Especially if they can be fleshed out and are workable. I like the 3 realms especially. Sure they cut down on freedom somewhat, but that is sorta of the goal behind the RPG/Roleplaying/Scenario deal. I think though there may be more than 4 viable choices of nations for each of the themed teams so there may be some choice (if we only go with 3 human teams) and a wide selection (much more than the current game) of pretenders. Benefit of predefined or semi predefined teams (nations) saves time (unless your cool with first come, first sever) no need to auction/bid/ or use another scheme to assign nations. This game type doesn't appeal to everyone though, I am aware of that.

Interesting idea about duplicate nations, possible with the multi era mod, don't know about single age without creating duplicate nations.

Will look into the BDS mod.

Only 3 pretenders left to go:
