I am brand new, (n00b) to this game. Just got the title yesterday and spent 5 hours playing it straight. Anyway, if there are any slots open, I would like to play.

Great! But just tell us which nation you would like to play (as mentioned above Caelum, Mictlan, Pangaea and Abysia are already taken). We're closing in our 8 players pretty quickly, so I'm hoping we can all upload our pretenders and start the game by tomorrow. I'd suggest you use whatever time you have to try out a Pretender setup for the nation you're trying out.

In the opening in game it's mostly about taking the independent provinces (or indies), as quickly as possible, and that's one thing you can practice in SP that carries over perfectly well to MP. You should probably try a game using the same setup we're going to use in the game, as describe in my initial post, and most importantly use the same indy strength (8). IMO, you get the most bang for the buck by testing a given pretender setup for the first 10-15 turns.

How big is the download for the Karan map? I'm tempted to join this one too but I wonder if I'll have the time to download the map and think up a new pretender.

The map is a 3.4mb download, and I got it off Arryn's site:

Be sure to get Targa's corrections, as well, which are also on Arryn's site.

Having lost my pretender at turn 1 definitly qualifies me for a noob game

Caelum is mine
I hereby declare war upon you!

Edit
Uhm, caelum is already in use?
Never mind, Arco it shall be!
