Re: Chronicles - Inspired by Baalz, engineered by Lokean - Pre-game discussion
Not yet, no. I'm trying to get a wiki set up next to the old Yarnspinners one. Hopefully I'll have it sorted and ready for players to post to by the time all the pretenders are in.

Meanwhile I'll keep my pretender type hidden. But you will find clues in my story :L

If that's not what you were looking for then it's better to pull out now than be disappointed later.
Llamabeast is fixing a bug with user-uploaded nations. Until then, he's had to kludge the Hoburg Alliance onto the server. Hopefully it will work as intended, which means I should be able to get the MA game moving. Sadly, I'm not in the MA game, which means I'm missing out playing with some of the 'famous faces', but everybody gets to read their output, so that's a win in my book.
You will need the following mods:
The Hoburg Alliance
The Skavenblight
The Tomb Kings
The Conceptual Balance Mod, 1.3 Complete
If there's anything wrong with the roster below, please let me know.
HTML Code:
MA nation roster:
Arco irenicus23
Ermor Calmon
Man quantum_mechani
Ulm Baalz
Marignon vanslime
T'ien Ch'i KO
Machaka otherling
Abysia tifone
Caelum Sansanjuan
Vanaheim evilhomer
Jotumheim solmyr
Shinuyama Wrana
Atlantis hunt11
R'lyeh DonCorazon
Skaven Hadrian
Hoburg alliance Ylavli
Tomb Kings Executor
I would suggest a simple majority of Victory Points be required to win, which would be 8 out of 15 total. Do the players agree to that, or do they feel that will make it too easy?
The settings are:
Independants: 5
Supplies, Resources, Gold, Research: Standard
Magic Sites: 55
Random Events: Common
Hall of Fame: 15
Renaming: On
|
The Tombkings link seems to point to Skraven also... Want to make sure I get the right one.
Looking forward to the stories (or is it one big story?)....

Re: Chronicles - Inspired by Baalz, engineered by Lokean - Pre-game discussion
If you go to the Chronicles game on Llamas server then he has links for the mods.
Maybe he links to his kludged version.

Ooh, and Lokean, I would highly recommend setting a master password.

R'lyeh
Typhalia, coastal town, human settlement
2029 Year of the Griffon
When we found Haldor, he was drenched in so much blood we thought him dead until the whites of his eyes blinked open, causing Erman to cut himself. Haldor cackled and ripped off pieces of his flesh until finally we bound the stocky fisherman in manacles.
Just that morning the burly lad had set out on his scully, blowing a kiss to Esmeralda with his gentle grin. Now she lay torn to pieces and Haldor a gibbering lunatic. No one in Typhalia had ever seen such evil in those days.
Something must have happened to him out in the water, the smallfolk said, something that twisted his mind inside out. Would that he had but drowned and thus saved his family and spared us all the horror that was to come.
In the end though, we came to understand:
Beyond the sheltering blue sky is a horrible infinite darkness, waiting to spill forth. Beneath the gentle green waves is an endless hungering void, waiting to devour. Behind a fisherman’s smiling eyes is a fragile coil of sanity, waiting to be snapped. Beyond the gates of the Dark Citadel, is an unwitting world waiting to be broken.

Re: Chronicles - Inspired by Baalz, engineered by Lokean - Pre-game discussion
I'm not understanding no more
We open the old MP thread for the new chapters? We continue writing here (would seem pointless to me as the first chapters are in the other one)? We write on this wiki?

Re: Chronicles - Inspired by Baalz, engineered by Lokean - Pre-game discussion
By the way, llamaserver got misunderstanding with my mail server...  I'm currently waiting for reply from Llamabeast, so some time may pass before my Pretender is seen by it (& I didn't mean him to be quite THIS stealthy! %) )

Re: Chronicles - Inspired by Baalz, engineered by Lokean - Pre-game discussion
Tifone, My understanding was Lokean would move chapters over to the wiki soon. The old forum thread with some writings is locked but I don't see why people who want to write something shouldn't just post it here for now.

Re: Chronicles - Inspired by Baalz, engineered by Lokean - Pre-game discussion
Im sorry. Ive tried but I cant get into role playing the CBM version of Pangaea. Its abit confining. As much as I like the idea of the game Im afraid Im going to pull out of it.

Re: Chronicles - Inspired by Baalz, engineered by Lokean - Pre-game discussion
Another nation nay, mr Gandalf?
@ DonCorazon
Yay, but we will need to write them somewhere before Lokean can move them to the wiki, so I was just thinking the old thread was more appropriate... Anyway, I'm not gonna post new ones until the game starts
Btw... I was wondering what does your avatar represent...
