First, there were Dragons. When the other races first began to notice the world around them, first began to climb up from the muck and the sea and the trees and stones, when they first began to understand the power of magic, dragons were there.
While many other things have happened in history, to the dragons we have already stated the most salient fact, dragons came first. The dragons saw themselves as above all other races and now, with the throne of Pantokrator open, the dragons have naturally decided that one of their number should occupy that throne and shows the divine power of Dragon kind over all others.
The discussions for which of their number should fill it have lasted an eon and reduced the number of contenders significantly. The only problem now is dragons are few in number. There are simply not enough dragons to worship whichever of their number ascends the throne and bring him divine abilities through prayer. The dragons agreed on a contest, as dragons enjoy such things, to decide of the most worthy of the remaining Dragon kind which should ascend into the heavens. The contending dragons will each guide one of the lesser races, and by doing so both gain troops, as dragons enjoy playing with the lives of other mortals, and worship necessary for godhood.
Thus began the Dragon Wars...
For this game all the pretenders are one of the worthy dragons contesting for the throne of Pantokrator. You must take an awake Dragon as your pretender God. The game will use CBM 1.71 and is set in the Middle Age. There will be ample starting area, probably 15 to 20 provinces per player. The Hall of heroes will be set to 15, all other setting standard for MA. The game will be hosted on llamaserver.
The following nations are recommended: Pythium, Shinuyama, Mictlan, Bandar, Arco, C'tis, Caelum and TC. These nations are somewhat balanced with one another, still have some effective strategies even using a Dragon pretender, and have a mix of national troops and/or magical diversity necessary to be playable. You may choose another nation if you like, although Ashdod and Jotunheim are both banned as a would be too difficult for the other nations to deal with in this set up.
Map will be chosen when total number of players are set. As we are starting around the holidays the start may be somewhat erratic as far as regular turns go to accommodate holiday schedules, but once past the holidays we will go 24 hours/48 hours/72 hours with the increase is happening when two or more players have requested them. This is my first attempt at running a game. Either I will serve as moderator or, if someone volunteers, we will have an outside moderator.
I would like to play Shinuyama, other nations are available on a first-come first serve basis.
