MP Game - Try Something New

Cainehill · #1 December 23rd, 2004, 02:20 PM

There's only five of us left, and while no one has asked for it, I'm going to slow the game down for the holidays after today's turn - something like 96 or 120 hour QH. If there are objections I can set it back, but I figure it's good to make it easier for everyone to fit the game into their holiday schedule.

No problems here!

I have no objection. Did we upgrade to the latest patch?

Good question - not sure if Esben has patched the executable there. I can't think of anything critical in this latest patch that's game altering (like the one where you couldn't have 2 fever fetishes or 2 clams on the same person) though.

OK, whatever Version you guys want to use is fine with me. I just wanted to make sure that we're all on the same page. Vanheim quit when I was battling him due to replay inconsistency.

Isn't a question of what we want to use - Esben hasn't upgraded to 2.15, at least not according to what the notes there say. So we're at 2.14, albeit I always recommend trying the other Version if you get a really strange battle result / playback.

This game is basically over - I've asked Esben to kill and bury it. At this point, there's only two nations left not gone AI, and Mark the Merciful hasn't taken a turn as Jotunheim in 15 or 20 turns.

Guess that makes my first huge scale game I've won ( World map; by the time everyone was demolished or quit (Atlantis was running a close second in some ways, using multiple Wish spells a turn for territory, but that only takes provinces that don't have fortresses, near as I can tell) I had the highest provinces, forts, gem income, and by far the highest dominion and army size), in my first game with R'lyeh.
