Default Re: Expert Players vs Newbies game

Can you script Messages to occur in game on certain turns? This would make a fantastic tutorial.

You could write a multiplayer tutorial, with set starting positions and races. On your first turn you might get a message saying something like this:

"Welcome lord, to your throne room. You have appeared at Last, as legend said you would, in the hour of our greatest need.

Three foul wyrms, sibulant siblings of the same nest, have emerged to lead the evil nations of X,Y and Z in a foul crusade, to wipe all free creatures from this world.

We have allies in the nations of B and C, but our foes are strong, and only if we work together can we destroy the three wyrms.

We have a small army already. I humbly suggest you organise Borok to lead them into battle, and have him stay behind the lines while the heavy troops charge forwards at their nearest foe. (Select the province "Capitalton" and then click on "Arrange Units". Select all the heavy troops at the top, and click on Borok to form a new unit. Click on "Click here to select orders" and set Borok to Stay behind troops, and the troops to "Attack nearest".) Having done this, send them at the province to the West. I am reliably informed they are weakly defended, and should proove an easy conquest"

I'd be very glad to write such a tutorial's text, though I'm perhaps not (yet :-) the best person to ask for it's content.
