Sloth - LA game with KO and JK - started

Aaargh, I am suffering from indecision. I think I won't play Caelum, but one of Agartha or Pythium. Now to choose which...

I think there's a mod that fixes all the issues with 3.10 lch, so we'll just use that.

Edit: I'll play Pythium.

Remaining nations: Agartha, Atlantis, Caelum, Pangaea

There will be other things added in the 3.11 apart from ginseng and hydrafixes. These are not ready yet.

I'm in favor of more content in patches, so a 3.11 with just a few fixes doesn't sit well with me. The hydrafix mod should probably be used in the Sloth game. Is there a ginseng fix mod?

I believe Edi's version of Endo's fix mod fixes pretty much everything.

Mapwise, I am quite inclined to use a handdrawn map, since they are lovelier.

Options include:

Glory of the Gods (MP) (274 provinces)
Cradle of Dominion (221)
Orania (279)
Zylithan's The Eight Gates (230) (quite interesting with portals scattered over the map but maybe a bit crazy)

Thoughts? Other suggestions?

I agree about handdrawn maps.

I don't think we should do slow research - it leaves research-dependent nations too vulnerable.

I'll take any LA nation still left (preference towards Atlantis if it's still open).

What would be the benefit of slow research?

Slow research would make endgame more interesting, but would make magic boring in the early game.

I'd just like to say that I'm very proud right now.

Remember to stomp Abysia, who pretends to be Krisfotter. Or was it the other way round? Stomp, any way.

Whats wrong with the ginseng? I drink ginseng tea here after dinner, most agreeable.

I have decided that the ceremonial master really IS just for ceremony. The celestial master on the other hand. Fear him! Fear him well! Once I learn how to cast communions without killing all my slaves that is...
