I'll give Caelum a try.

I'm looking at the mosehansen.dk site, I see toolsfools as an open game, but I don't see any links for how to join the game. (To start a game, sure, but not to join.)

Is there some secret to joining a game there?

Thanks!

Heh. Stupid wolf. Okay, I figured it out - start DomII, go to Network, Connect to Dominions Server, enter mosehansen.dk, then the port #.

But - do I need to have my Pretender for that race created on my local machine before joining?

Yes, yes you do. Otherwise the option to upload to that slot will be greyed out.

Grazi. I had started to think that might be why some nations were grayed - I didn't think it was just that I was too new to be allowed to play fish. (At first, I thought they might be reserved, or not available for the map / game.)

In which case, if Fool's Tools is just waiting for 8, the game is ready to start. As self-proclaimed sacrificial (stainless steel) porcupine, I've just been SP-testing the not-so-optimal Pretender I joined the game with, and I'm fairly confident.

Testing with indies at strength 8, my first wave of amphibious assault troops almost held their own against a bowl of goldfish left behind by some Hoburg troops, retreating with less than 70% casualties.

Bring on the frogs of war!

I'll start the game friday night.

thanks to all who have joined.

I think that it's pretty well necessary for people to post in the thread if they are going to play - otherwise there are likely to be a number of "phantom" players - say, someone accidentally uploaded a pretender or something.

so far:

catquiet - caelum
cainehill - unknown (ulm?)
djtool - c'tis
kel - acoscephale
quantum mechanic -jotunheim

and, on the possibility/probability that the slots aren't filled, I'll take Pythium.

However, if there really are unannounced players for Vanheim, Machaka and pangaia, I'll happily recuse myself.

Djtool, do you know if those slots are actually taken?

I am in, and joined the game.

Munglor, lord of Ermor, awaits your submission.

Enjoy everyone!

One problem you may have is that people go to mosehansens from 4-5 different forums (like QT3 and gonegold) and there is no mosehansen forum so people may join open games, fully intending to play, and just not be reading this forum
