The Crow Road - MA 10 Players (started)

[Cicadian]

Since I'm itching to start playing MP again after spending 4 months in India with no internet access, I thought I'd start a game.

Ich has very kindly offered to host the game, since it seems my network is not cooperating/I'm an idiot.

All pretenders are in and the map is up: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=88C1ZXUE

The players are:

1.Tien Chi - Cicadian
2.Ryleh - janlm
3.Ctis - nozshand
4.Pythium - johnarryn
5.Ermor - BigDisAwesome
6.Machaka - ddavidd
7.Abysia - Griefor
8.Bandar Log - DocAquatic
9.Shinuyama - Herode
10.Jotunheim - wokeye


Era: MA
Max Players: 10
Skill level: Any. I myself only have 4 completed MP games under my belt.
Map: 15 prov/player random map. I thought it would be fun to have a semi-randomized map. For those of you unfamiliar with the semi-randomizer, it basically adds in random and fixed special provinces which can contain considerably tougher independents, guaranteed sites and commanders with magic items. I suggest you download it and play a test map just to see what sort of surprises may await. I shall set the % of special povinces reasonably low to ensure that there are still plenty of 'standard' independents. Also, I will try to make the starting locations as fair as possible, however there is still a chance you may be unlucky.

If the SR map is a big problem for people, I will reconsider, but I really think it adds a lot to the game.

Mods: Worthy Heroes 1.8

Other Settings: Score graphs on, renaming on, all others default.

Once 10 people have signed up, I will create and upload the map and off we go!

I am taking Tien Chi

You're not going to find any takers with that IP...

If you're behind a router/firewall and need a host, I could host the game when you organize it and send me the files.

[Cicadian]

I am behind a router, but I thought I had forwarded the ports correctly. I did test it from another PC and it seemed to work OK. Can someone confirm?

If it doesn't work, I would be more than happy to take you up on your offer

That's your local internal IP address. It'll work from somewhere on your local net, but not from the external world.

Updated the first post to reflect the fact that I am stupid and Ich is a nice person

[Janlm]

i'd like to sign up as rlyeh

[Folket]

Cicadian, you should be able to configure your router to forward a port to your computer.

[Cicadian]

That is what I thought I did, but it does not appear to be working.
I'm fine with Ich hosting though, especially as his server provides snazzy stats and graphs

[nozshand]

i'll sign up as C'tis if there is still a game going

[johnarryn]

Id like to sign up as Pythium.
