Im starting a new project. So far the working name is WE vs THEM. The idea is to create a map/game for multiplayer alliance.
Does this sound like an interesting project? I came up with this because I often leave R'lyeh, Ermor, Atlantis out of my games because I find them hard to play against. Unfortunately this means I have very little experience in trying to create them now for this map.
Check out the WvsTthumb.jpg which is a thumbnail of the map Ive chosen so far. There is also a larger jpg, the tga and the map files.
Here is the working description so far.......
#dom2title WE vs THEM
#imagefile WEvsTHEM.tga
#domVersion 2.02
#defaultzoom 1.0
#description "A harder game (hopefully) for those wanting smarter AI's. In the lower-left corner of this map there is the XXXXX alliance. It is Ermor sandwiched between Atantis and R'lyeh. They are all allied against you. To survive I highly recommend co-operation with the other nations."
I thought maybe an alliance name of
the Dark R'yeh Ermor Atlantis Dominions (D.R.E.A.D.) The DREAD Alliance.
OK now the idea is to make Ermor Atlantis and R'lyeh too tough to beat. Later I might do a "Them vs WE" Version pitting the high cleric nations against the high undead ones.
Im thinking of starting them each with 3 castle/lab/temple locations (9 in all) in that lower left corner. Extra starting units. Possibly some special provinces at important locations. None of the other nations will be able to start in that corner of the map.
Maybe specific scales and deitys if we can come up with some that would be better than the randomly created ones. I think now that you cannot pre-create a deity which exceeds the creation points, but the random AI ones do.
Come to think of it...
maybe I should give this up to someone else and do one with races I do know well. Anyone interested?
