Default 10-player EA game - started

As per a request from LlamaBeast:
No I do not generally take requests for hosting special games, but I will accept suggestions for a new default game. That way I can script it so that its easy to start one, and easy to clean up.

SO.....
Here is a mid-sized map which can support 10 players. You might squeeze in a few more but if it crashes on start then oh well. I wont clean it up but I will just kick the script to start another mid game. This is on the minor server so I only plan to start one of these at a time.

Era 1
game mid_spruit
server game.dom3minions.com
port 8098

Default Re: someone run this game

I don't think I saw the original context, Gandalf - should people who want to play just join the game?

Is there anything unusual about it?

Default Re: someone run this game

I dont usually "run" games. I just make them available on my server. So if someone wants to spear head this one, go for it. Its there. I might not poke my head in here much so someone take lead. Round up players, iron out conflicts, decide when to start it, contact me if something goes wrong.

Nothing unusual. Well the map is abit. Here is its image.
http://game.dom3minions.com/mid_4.jpg

Here is the command line for it.
dom3 -g mid_spruit --port 8098 -STd --statfile --scoredump
--preexec /home/dom3/dominions3/savedgames/mid_spruit/pre.sh
--postexec /home/dom3/dominions3/savedgames/mid_spruit/post.sh
--era 1 --indepstr 5 --hofsize 10 --magicsites 65 --uploadmaxp 10 --renaming --mapfile mid_4.map
--masterpass @@@@@@@ -q --hours 24

ooops it looks like I did cap it at 10 players so hurry and get your nations. Later on I might setup a webdir for it and have the scoreboard and stats file go there automatically.

Now Im off to take action against a brute force attack against the system.
