Ligeia - D2 v2.08 PBEM with RPG elements

[ywl]

BTW, djtool is thinking of starting a game on Mose Hansen's server in another thread. We can all join...

Thanks Ywl.

Link to that game:

What typically happens when the player of a human controlled nation stops submitting turns and simply disappears (doesn't give his PW or set his nation to AI)?

Thanks

That game has rather unconventional settings though, and the server is linux based so battle replays are inaccurate for most people.

The game controller can ask for the password. Or the player can set himself/herself/itself AI before leaving.

Also, if the master password is enabled by the host, he can go and change the nation into AI (or change orders, send inappropriate ingame Messages, etc if I've understood it correctly) if he so desires. And everyone trusts the host, right?

If we are playing it on Mose's machine, we can trust him perfectly . He's not one of the players. He should no reason to cheat.

Okey. Sorry for being away for two days.
The main reason why I started this topic was the fact, that most D2 games I played where missing in rpg elements. And I mean, I miss the pen and paper rpg feeling. YOU are the pretender, so in a game it would be nice to ACT as a pretender.
PBEM or Mose's machine?
Until I started to play on Mose's greate server I was thinking Pbem is a better way to play a D2 game. Well, I was WRONG. Esben Mose Hansen made the greatest D2 server ever. Thank you!
I think it would be nice to play there.
The map...
I think the best way is to decide with voting. When a player registers to the game by posting here, he/she/it must name the map he thinks best.
So how to sign in? That's how:

code:

---

Player name: DarkTears

Nation: Caelum

Vote on map: Brittain

Indy strenght 6 is booooring. I think 5 or 7 would be better.
