Re: Late Era Team Game
I don't think the theme requires power gaming.
Thematically, Gods are focused on their spheres. A god of life isn't going to pick up a few levels in Death, just because it's a powerful, easy path to break into.
A god of war will fight. A god of honor will not betray, even if it's to his advantage. A god of treachery will, even if it hurts him in the long run. It's his nature.
They are, far more than mortals, expressions of that nature.
A god of life who turns to death to defeat death is no longer himself.
They are dedicated to winning, but will not act outside of that nature to win.
Another perspective on it, anyway.
(Most of which I promptly ignore when playing.)

Re: Late Era Team Game
Gods are mischievous egoistical buggers. So it isn't that hard to be roleplaying them.  |

Re: Late Era Team Game
I kind of like the magicboost, but I believe it could be quite powerful. I like that it doesn't affect blessings.

Re: Late Era Team Game
The theme doesn't require powergaming: true.. but the theme isn't all the game.. in the end it's a TBS game.. and THAT is enough reason to power game.
Magic boost seems a very good idea for the "human" mages who can't be SC.

Re: Late Era Team Game
I thought it would make things more interesting. I didn't want you to give up too quickly.

Re: Late Era Team Game
My Hydras are not healing their missing heads. Can you mod this , Dr. P? See quote from the main board below:
"You're right, good eye. I just tested and 1856 finishes as itself. It's easily modded by changing the firstshape of 1856 to 1850. 1855 is good, didn't check the rest."
It seems the "empty slot" might have been included for just such an eventuality. Please help a poor Hydra out.

Re: Late Era Team Game
I'll add a fix to the mod and post it sometime tonight. Could you post a link to the thread in question?
