MP: New Noob Game/Inexperienced. EA - NOOBAPHOBIA Filled

[Flop]

I would like to play, please. I'd prefer Tien Ch'i, if possible.

I've only played one other mp game (also as Tien Ch'i), and was killed off rather early. I never missed a turn, though.

I know what two of the exploits you mention are, but could you please explain troops blocking and recruitment of 0g Ettin? Mainly out of curiosity, I suppose, but I'd hate to inadvertently use one of them.

edit: also, is there a list of crafting and spell requirements available, for CBM 1.92? I kind of screwed up my crafting strategy in my last game, by going by the vanilla requirements.
