New Orania War Scenario game on Mosehansen

JaydedOne · #1 April 8th, 2004, 08:22 PM

I've started a game on Mosehansen for the Orania War scenario. Prefer 12 to 17 players. Will wait one hour after I see that we've got player #12 and then start. Taken races include Man, Jotunheim, and R'lyeh. Go check it out if interested.

I'd like to play with Marignon.
But it seems Mosehansen has only 2 slots for games, and only 1 free.

Tell me when and how to join.

register an account in the new mosehansen pages, then connect to the ip/port and pick a nation.

just don't pick my nation

(the jots)

oh, btw, please notice that the evil R'lyeh is in the game. everyone must destroy them.

Cohenn, is that you as Marignon? If not, go to https://www.mosehansen.dk/cgi-bin/dom2beta.pl and find the Sweetback game there. Marignon is taken by somebody else if that isn't you.

Take care!

Aw man. Why you gotta be that way? Squids need love too. Squids need love too.

I know you're mostly joking, but is that actually how people feel?

I play R'lyeh pretty exclusively atm, and I'm starting to feel that they're now ranked #2 after Ermor in the least popular neighbor competition...

Is this about the lobotomies?

I hope you know that the procedure is completely voluntary*... and we have a 100% satisfaction rate! Not a single registered complaint to date!

Really, this whole "free will" mumbo jumbo is totally overrated... seek the bliss of ignorance that becoming a certified moron brings!

* Other options include, but are not limited to: painful death, really painful death, and really really painful death

oh, it was mostly just a good-natured dig at miguel.

it is kinda true though...

Frankly, yeah, I'd kill R'lyeh early too in a multiplayer game -- if I had the option, which most folks don't.

The reason people resent the hell out of R'lyeh? Two things -- underwater race and paralyze. The illithid are gross with paralyze (although not nearly as much as they once were, thanks to the bug fix) and the fact that they get time to sit around and build underwater doesn't help the love. Top that off with their natural ability to sit around and clam hoard (which I don't see as a problem -- but DON'T be hijacking my thread on that score) and, well, you've got a hated race.

Now, granted, they don't have a few things that -really- chafe like a default death domain, miasma, or heat/cold envirospread. But they're plenty obnoxious all the same.

I just play them because I'm a huge Lovecraft fan. Well, that and I appreciate a little turtling at the beginning of a game (my recent activity in TenToTango notwithstanding...)

I know, I'm just a little paranoid because of the "BigGame" (where I'm playing R'lyeh)... since I was being uber nice, but have been attacked by everybody who can get their troops there... just trying to see whether that's gonna be a common thing when I play R'lyeh.

Regardless, I'm in as Abysia... let's see how this newly modified "Blood of Humans" thing works out... hopefully, the devs were too nice with their "love stick" and now I am unstoppable simply because I picked them... unfortunately my incompetance will likely negate any "over-love" effect... but we'll see.

Hey, strangely enough, I'm in BigGame as Abysia. I'm the guy whose borders you just brushed up against.

And yeah, the one downside about R'lyeh is that they can only produce their best units underwater. It overextends them something fierce. In a map like Zen's Europe, it's cool. And it tones down a bit once you get Gateway, but otherwise it can be a bit rough.
