PBEM Multiplayer Game: No new positions (was "New Multiplayer Game")

[King Lear]

Wan, you can go ahead and have Man. That leave Abysia open for a new opponent if one shows up.

As for maps, I looked at a bunch of the custom ones, and then at what we have from illwinter, and the ones from illwinter looked much prettier. The only viable option that I found (especially for you water people) were:

Orania or Wars of Orania.

Proposed settings:
Independants: 6
Events: Common
Hall of Fame: 15
Sites: 50

Should we leave or disable the massive amount of informaiton that the charts give? I say disable, but that's just me.

I would suggest we use "Alexander's Luck" as a mod. You can download it and open it up with a word file to take a look at what it does: I think based on my playing so far that it helps balance out the luck scale, making order/turmoil not everyone's imediate choice.

Any other suggestions, or responses, post them. Once I hear back from a couple of you on maps I'll go ahead and post my email, and we can get this going.

Cheers,
Lear

Hello, I was interested from the start I will take what ever is left

I think the settings look fine and I prefer disable scoreboard as well. I would really prefer using the standard game instead of a mod though (I simply don't have time to test it before the game ).

I'm ok with any ordinary map or custom, the same goes to settings and mods. Granted that everyone else stay happy.

I'm just eager to get try out D2 in mp =)

I'd really like to try machaka with a divine serpent pretender... would anyone mind if we modded this in?

The lord or fertility is just a horrible subsitute.

My first preference would be to go vanilla for my very first MP game, but that's just me...

I prefer standard game.
using a mod will put anyone that isn't familiar with it at a disadvantage.
But I will play even if the game is modified.
