				 Re: PBEM game: Song of the Blade (open) 
 Well, the values Panther proposed were made to make those items too expensive I believe, hence the 5W. I have no objections to lowering it to 4W however, with perhaps another path thrown in for good measure.
 I have no opinion on Soul Contracts, simply because I have never seen them hoarded, but they seem to be quite a bargain for their price (if left alone for a while). How more expensive would you make them?

				 Re: PBEM game: Song of the Blade (open) 
 I'd like to play, if there is room.  
I think a small map is critical for a game like this.
 
Are themes being randomized as well, or is no one being forced into Iron Faith, etc   dgo@pcfastnet.com |

				 Re: PBEM game: Song of the Blade (open) 
 There is still some room, so welcome aboard Rabelais! 
I like the idea of enforced themes, but it would be difficult to check. I could check the starting sites on turn 1, and give the location of all the capitals, or the first turn could be sent to a third party for a quick check. "Hey, lucky you, you got Caelum in the random picks... Too bad I rolled heads, and you end up with the Raptors theme."   |

				 Re: PBEM game: Song of the Blade (open) 
 I vote for control of the capital and no water nations.Forced themes would be cool as well (Tien Chi Barbarians).

 Welcome aboard Turms! 
 There is still one spot open for a player, and we will have a full house.

				 Re: PBEM game: Song of the Blade (open) 
 I would prefer not using randomized themes, for I intend to pick a theme I have never played after being assigned a race.
 As for the clams, 4W1S is good. At least that means you might build a couple of them as the cost is not totally  prohibitive.
