If that's all there is to it, great!
I'd like to try my luck as Jotunheim.
I haven't tried the Balance Mod, but I don't mind turning it on if everyone wants it.

Alneyan, where I do I get the balance mod? Also, each time I get a turn file, do I remove the old one?

Welcome aboard Agrajag!

The mod is attached to this post, and will be added to the first post as well (a zip archive including a readme file, listing all the changes).

In order to use the mod, extract the contents of the archive into your mods directory, and enable the mod. To do so, go into the Preferences screen, then Mod preferences, and click on Conceptual Pretender Gods 2.01. Once it is done, create your Pretender as usual; there will be a black and white banner displayed in the main menu once the mod is enabled.

Once the game has been started, Dominions will automatically handle the mod, disabling and enabling it as needed, so it will not interfere with other games.

There will be two files in the game's directory: man.trn and man.2h (or ermor.trn and ermor.2h for Ermor, and so on). The .trn file is the one I will send you, and any new file will overwrite the new one; the .2h file is the one created after you have finished your turn, so the game will automatically overwrite this one. So there is no need to delete files by hand, as both will be overwritten by newer files automatically.

Please sign me up for this game; I've never played multiplayer before, and would like to give it a shot. I suppose I'll take a try with Machaka.

So, there are now five players in the game; I think we have room for a few more players, two or three or so.

On another note, what patch should this game use? I have most patches from 2.08 onwards on my computer, so I can use any patch; using the same patch as the host is needed to ensure that the battle replays aren't incorrect.

Alneyan, are you waiting for 10 players?

I am using version 2.16, so that is my preference.
