Re: New Mod game: Amoscalypse Now
This will be interesting. It wont be fair, but at this time I dont think anyone can predict the result. I take it that lch will be doing editing to allow the mods to share a game where needed? (unit numbers, age, etc). Gods will have to be mailed in? Will you combine the mods into one big mod for the players to download before making the god (it might change numbers)
I have some sloppy batches of wrapped maps available online. 125, 200, and 1500 provinces so far. Not quite up to "grab and play" quality but if you see one you like it will save alot of work using it as a base map to build off of. Let me know if you would like me to work in a particular direction next (size, colors, provinces, etc)

Re: New Mod game: Amoscalypse Now
Definitely wrapped map! Everything else is but too unfair.

Re: New Mod game: Amoscalypse Now
If you're worried about fairness, I feel I should warn you that this just isn't the game for you. The mods are in all probability going to be completely unbalanced against each other. There could well be pretenders starting with awe 4 fear 4 fireshield, H4, dom 6, EFD 4 for 100 points. I'm not saying it's going to happen, just that no care is being taken by lch or myself to ensure any kind of balance here.
To answer your technical questions Gandalf, it'll be done in much the same way as the previous two mod games. One combined mod available for download once everyone has picked, followed by mailing of pretenders. The combined mod will eliminate all ID conflicts and possibly have to trim down some descriptions to get past the description bug, but nothing else.
This time it's basically all on lch. I get to sit back and relax. No balance work or testing to be done :]

Re: New Mod game: Amoscalypse Now
It could be alot of fun playing the mods against each other.
Maybe the Trolls mod, or False Dawn.

Oh yeah. Sorry.

Many years ago, reportedly before the atlantis enslavement project, frail starspawns assassinate their opponent in they dream, driven their enemy out by the noctambulism phantasmatic army. Unseen conquerors shocked entire world, solons resultant their force to cut off the arcane passage, which created by R'lyeh elder, linking to the dreamworld, and strike R'lyeh empire in the real realm at the same time. After the great war, R'lyeh been sealed in the hadal deepwater, fallin a lengthy sleep and bide their's time...

Only a couple work. And not always the way they were meant to.
In the early days of beta testing it seemed logical to first try out all the Dom2 maps and mods since there werent any yet for Dom3. I was more interested in the maps. I think I remember that most of the nation mods failed with "no holiness" or "bad unit number". Probably fixable by some mod person

Re: New Mod game: Amoscalypse Now
That description for the False Dawn is completely incomprehensible!
