Unless someone has an objection the map will be either Cradle of Dominions if its ten people, if more sign up in the day after we hit ten, it'll be Orania.

Ok, I can handle one more game, and I want to try an LA era one. I am currently involved in two MP games, but have no other MP experience. One of those should be a short affair (only 4 players) so I can add this one.

I'll take LA Pythium if you'll have me.

My vote is for using the Ogre map, as it can handle many players and is really cool IMNSHO.

Pablomatic · #26 April 28th, 2010, 10:23 PM

Oh, and I will play by e-mail.

I assume you mean this map http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/showthread.php?t=37672

Tell you what, get 2 more players to vote for it and I'll switch to it. If anyone else wants to propose a map, provide a link, and get votes for it, most votes before we start wins, players are free to change votes whenever they want.

It is good to see another noob friendly game that encourages exploration by players. I also always liked Ballbarians AOM Ogre, though it may be too big for a small number of players. And I like the direct connect option, would work great for me since I'm in a team game via direct connect as well. If you will have me, I'd like join and to experiment with Agartha or Atlantis. I'm an intermediate level player, though somewhat noobish. If I am too experienced for the game though, I will back out.

If someone feels inclined, please explain to me what "direct connection" is. Perhaps I can take advantage of that too.

Also, for my part I vote to let Sempronius, and other intermediate players join.

I do think that there need to be at least two underwater nations, if there are any at all, to avoid giving a single water nation a huge advantage.

It says in the OP that all players are welcome =/

Direct connect is where instead of emailing and receiving turns by email, you open dominions 3 and click on network, then join existing dominions server, then you input the servers IP or address, put in the port, connect, and play your turn. Its generally more reliable then PBEM, but has its own problems if the server has a dynamic IP and firewalls.

On another note the host has been screwing around trying to get PBEM to work with a direct connect game and he hasn't had any luck so far, so at the moment I will have to retract the turn in turns by email option. You can still receive email notification, or receive turns by email, but you'll have to direct connect to the server to play them. If this changes and we get it working, I'll of course notify you.
For the people that have requested PBEM I'll do my best to help you get direct connect working, but I'll understand if you wish to bow out.
