Newbie PBEM - looking for players. Possibly RP.

Agrajag · #1 November 23rd, 2006, 05:50 PM

Well, if you'll accept me I'd like to play.
I'm not really a newb, but having played only one MP game (that is, I'm still playing it. And doing quite badly), I would definitely not consider myself a veteran.
If you'll agree to accept me then my votes are:
Middle Era - I'm a bit sick of Early Era, and Late Era is not newb friendly.
RP is great, as long as we decide on some rules in advance, like is metagaming allowed? (For example, one player could RP a battle another player would otherwise not know about, would you consider it fair for that other player to attack the first player knowing he is weak from that battle?)
Either way, I think I'd like to play Pangaea, as I have almost never played them

This would be my first multiplayer so count me in.

I'd vote for early era (but anything goes) since I mostly have experience on it.

If it's late era I have close to zero experience so 'anything goes'. Tho I'd guess Ulm would be closest to having experience there. But I can decide later (or try a SP game before this starts). I don't care for roleplaying as such, though it's doable if majority wants it.

Early era: Ulm, Kailasa
Med era: anything goes
Late era: anything goes

Okay! I'm fine with players that are a bit more advanced, Teraswaerto and Agrajag.
There's five of us already, but I'll wait if we can get a sixth player perhaps.

Teraswaerto · #4 November 23rd, 2006, 06:57 PM

I would very much like to play, but so that there is no misunderstanding: I did play several Dom2 MP games two years ago, although not with great success. I wouldn't consider myself a veteran like several people on these boards are.

If that is ok, I vote:

A resounding YES to RP, if you mean in character diplomacy and such.
Middle or Late era, preference Middle.
Anything goes as far nations, I'll pick something no-one else wants.

WSzaboPeter · #5 November 23rd, 2006, 07:11 PM

Count me in as a 6th... I love role playing, so that's a definite yes.
Era... Anything but early... I'm in two games, both early. I would like to try some late era nations.
If late era my priority will be: Man if not available, then Arcoscephale.
If middle... Caelum, then Man.

CelestialGoblyn · #6 November 23rd, 2006, 07:36 PM

Well, if you say that late era is not newb-friendly, I am willing to switch my vote to middle.
Hullu, would I count you as voting for Middle? WSzaboPeter?

And we are agreed to roleplay, that's good. No one has to write reports or such, but we assume we play the roles of the nations rulers. The extent of roleplay is up to choice.

If we're agreed on Med, then I'll pick Aghartha.
So far it looks:
CelestialGoblyn-Agharta
Hako-undecided
Agrajag-Pangea
Hullu-undecided
Teraswaerto-undecided
WSzaboPeter-undecided
MindElemental-Man
Saarud-Abysia

Pick your nations. After I added you to the list, create a pretended with 'game tools' and send him/her/it to me.

wilf@oliwa.multicon.pl is my main e-mail. If it fails, please use gobly4001@yahoo.com

Mind Elemental · #7 November 23rd, 2006, 09:59 PM

I'll be 7th, if there's a slot still open!

I'd prefer Late, but my second choice would be for Early.

My choice of nations would be:

Early: Arco
Mid: Man
Late: Man

I'm fine with RP.

CelestialGoblyn · #8 November 23rd, 2006, 10:06 PM

Right. So what are people's choices to era again?

Its mostly that there are none-noob-friendly nations around, like crazy Rlyeh, or freespawning Ermor

And the tougher indies probably don't help :X

Also, remember that I almost never played Pangaea SP, and never in MP, so don't be surprised if I keel over quickly
