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.

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]

What's about indep province defence ?

[Cicadian]

It will be 5, but as I said we will be playing with a Semi-Randomised map, which means some provinces will contain tougher independents, along with guaranteed sites and commanders with magic items.

There will still be plenty of normal provs (especially around start locations) but quite a few will contain surprises!

[Wokeye]

I will play - Jotun please.

Thanks for the prompt response guys, looks like we are just waiting on Ermor and Ryleh.
