This game will make some changes to (hopefully) eliminate some aspects of the end game I don't find interesting (race for the Chalice/Tarts, clam hoarding). My aim is to reward players who fight and win wars and penalize turtlers.
It will use CBM 1.5 with the following changes:
1) No hoarding. This means gem generators (clams, fetishes and blood stones) and Soul Contracts will be unique. Onaqui will not generate beast bats. Vampire Lords cannot summon vampires.
2) No game winning globals (AN, AC, BoT, FotA, Utterdark).
3) Tartarian Gate will be replaced by individual Summon Tartarian spells. The tarts summoned with these spells will all be commanders, will not have afflictions and will not be insane. Since the need for the Chalice or GoH (or GoR) will be eliminated, tartarians will be priced more in line with other SCs:
Tartarian Titan: 60 D
Tartarian Titaness: 50 D
Tartarian Lightning Cyclops: 50 D
Tartarian Cyclops: 40 D
Tartarian Spirit: 40 D
Tartarian Monstra: 35 D
Tartarian Monstrum: 20 D
Stats and magic paths will be the same as the existing tarts.
Casting requirements will stay the same at D7 (except for the Monstrum at D5) and level will still be Conj. 9 for all types of tarts.
4) Well of Misery will be moved from Conj. 8 to Evo. 8 so someone racing to Conj. 9 can't pick up WoM along the way.
I will make the usual request for players not to abandon the game without finding a sub, but even more importantly, I'd like this to be a quick game: 24 hour hosting until turn 30, 48 hour hosting after that until the end of the game. To make that possible we will only have 8 players.
