The Devils Lair mod for Abysia on Illwinter's website is fine. However, it would be a good idea to play several test games with any mod you plan to use before comitting to a MP game with it.

I would like to play Lhynn, it's a mod from Sube, Black moon chronicle, for Pythium. Would it be ok, I' m not sure if it is balanced for MP game, I think knight of the light was not. But as a newbi, I don't feel sure about what is balanced and what not.

Skolem

P.S. would be the game a PBEM or TCP/IP ?

I'd like to play my knightly mod.
If it is impossibile due to unbalance, I'd like to try the Knights of Light mod.

You can't play your knightly mod, since it is incredibly unbalanced, the knights of light are fine.

The current nation list is:

Graeme: Ermor/Thaumaturg
Cohen: Marignon/Knights of Light
Teraswaerto: Ulm/Hoburg Alliance SE
JJ_Colorade: Abysia/Devil's Lair
Skolem: Pythium/Skolem(Once I grab a copy)

Just five more players. I'd suggest the Ashikaga mod as one that should be included as well.

I've seen the Kami and False Dawn mod, but they seem really poor as Mods, Kami for poor graphic, while False Down seems really weak.

We can ask to some finnish to lend the Calrea races already done.

Graeme - would you be kind enough to list the publicly available mods that you know are available?

Thanks
John

This post lists those mods that I am currently aware of:

Broken Empire Ermor Thaumaturgs.
Hoburg Alliance
Hoburg Alliance - Special Edition
Trollheim
Ulm Punk
Ashikaga Shogunate
Devils Lair (This one screws up devil summons for other people)
False Dawn (A bit of work needed)
Kami Mod (some balance needed)
Black Moon Chronicles Lhynn
Black Moon Chronicles Knights of Light

Hi,

I haven't played the Kami nor the Devil's Lair mods and am thinking about playing one of them (I'm currently signed up for Devil's Lair) in this game. Does anyone have opinions/thoughts on these two mods?

The disorder in the home province caused by Devil's Lair seems rough.

The high cost and low magic potential of the Kami mod seems like a big disadvantage but the flying dragons seem pretty nice in actual melee combat due to high attack and defence values. Other thoughts?

Thanks,
John
