It strikes me as a perfect Dominions scenario. Go Kristoffer go!

I'm guessing that the object of the scenario would be to capture the Throne of thr World. Would this mean that the Baphomet would be a computer player "randomly" harrassing the other seven, who are all striving to topple him from his throne, or would his side be playable as well?

Sounds like it would be a lot of fun! I know I would play it without hesitation, once patch #2 is released.

Speaking of which, any info on how soon the next patch and its much-anticipated expanded mod powers will in our greedy hands?

Baphomet is the creator, nothing exist unless he illuminates it. Baphomet is AI.

Premade pretenders are cool -- provided they're interesting!

However, why not do it both ways? It would be a simple manner to make a copy of the scenario with the Pretenders not fixed.

Of course. This is always a viable option. I just wondered if there was an interest in premade gods for the scenario.

I also vote for pre-made gods. Sounds like great fun!

Though I do like starting out with only one province.

The map is finished, but not yet available. The scenario is not finished yet. I'm considering starting some kind of Illwinter-hosted tournament/competition based on the map. Until the competition is finished you will not get access to the scenario map files and premade gods (only the basic map file).

Does this sound OK?

I'll have to do a bit of tinkering to make the scenario balanced in competitive games.
