Certainly.

Now we'll need 2 more water nations still. Do voice your opinion about uwgim (at least if you want it )

Wish I could say something about Uwgim, but I've never tried it, so I haven't really got an opinion on it. It does look like a fun mod though, so I wouldn't be opposed to it.

I'm not a big fan of uwgim mod.

But if it can help I'm ok to switch from YOMI to R'LYEH !

And maybe we can start with only two undewater nations ?

I'll sign up as Atlantis to round out the water nations.

I haven't played with the underwater mod yet but I have just downloaded it. Initial impression is that it would be handy but I will play with it a bit before saying whether I would prefer it.

[Quitti]

Very well. If arnob changes to R'lyeh, we'll only need one land nation. We'll likely wait until thanksgiving is over anyway to see if QM can come up with next version of CBM and to give the people over in US time to catch up with their families without having to worry if this game starts.

Water nations seem very indifferent about uwgim. If you guys want it, tell it to me before I host the game, which'll happen on sunday or so. Otherwise I'll take your answer as a no.

I'll try to pester QM to get us a new version coming before the weekend if possible

I also changed the topic to make this thread easier to find. I hope no-one got too confused about it.

How experienced are the players in this game? I am a quasi-vet. I guess I'll take EA Ermor or Arco, need to firm it up.

[rabelais]

What version of the map are we using? the version I have (asia twist w/ ports v1.2) seems to have a number of bugs including japan having not very good expansion options (no circle) and some caps being NEXT to one another.

I like asia twist because everyone is coming from all directions. I hate it for the same reason.

[Zeldor]

Well, we are waiting for 1.8 or staying with 1.6? Not sure about 1.7, quite unbalanced. I may switch to Yomi then too.

[Quitti]

I'd prefer 1.7 over 1.6, but we'll wait and see what happens at least until the weekend, as it's thanksgiving in US this thursday as far as I know and some people will probably be busy going around.

We'll be using asia twist with preset starting positions - I believe it's the one first in the list @ llamaserver. And that one would be this. If there's any serious bugs/something in that map I should know of, let me know. It's worked well before.

edit: QM told me on IRC that he won't be able to get a new cbm out in few weeks. Kind of shame. I'm tempted to go meddle with it myself but I don't want another cbm 1.4xx fiasco.

i think 1.8 is not coming for another few weeks, so its either 1.7 or 1.6, i personally prefer 1.7 because it moved hammer to const 8, i'd like to see how thats gonna change the game balance, might shift some tier 1 powerhouses to tier 2 and vice verse

i would imaging its gonna be very hard for nations such as mictlan to maintain a full blood economy due to the unique dousing rod which effectively reduce their blood income by 40%, not that they are not overpowered before. Interesting how strategy will evolve for heavy blood dependent nations
