Oh hey now, its not SUCH a big deal. Nothing wrong with trying a new set of house rules, you never know it might *gasp* improve the game and if it doesnt, well, it was a worthy experiment.
Nothing wrong at all! But I personally like minimal house rule lists for newbie games.

I'll play as Ermor... I feel my intermediate credits are in good order, although i've probably gone over the 10 game mark at this point (like 15 maybe) I've been clobbered in nearly all of them.

Ah, crap! I'll take Abysia then, and expect the spanking to be even quicker...

Perfect! That means that bleach won't be taking Abysia, which improves my chances in this game tenfold! (Since bleach, as Abysia, is spanking my butt big time in Live and Learn).

Are you an expert in Ulm, Edi? For me so far, Abysia has been the easiest nation to play successfully in MP.

No, not an expert on any nation or any strategy by any stretch of imagination, I've got very limited SP experience only, and out of those, I've been most comfortable with standard and BF Ulm (I hate IF Ulm). Abysia is one I've always liked, even if I've always had crappy luck with it, but maybe I'll have a good break this time. It's also similar enough to Ulm in some respects that it's not so far removed as Pangaea would be, for example.

Oh - I forgot to mention one thing.

Special house rule for Boron:
Prior to turn 20, posting in the Dom2 forum is not allowed while a turn here in BackToTheFray is left unplayed.

Man, I would love to join this game. So many games, so little time... I'm really interested in trying Vanheim, Caelum, or Pangea, but I think I'm going to have to stick with the Live and Learn game for now.

Now there's the best credential of all - getting clobbered! Well, we certainly are doing that together in L&L, maybe we can avoid that fate this time around.

Current player list:
Pythium - Boron
Soapyfrog - Ulm
Man - Thufir?
Ermor - Cheezeninja
Abysia - Edi
? - bleach168
