Newbie Slug Fest - Mose Hansen game - ENDED

[DragonFire11]

Thanks Panther. Someday I'll play a good game, not just hold on by the merest hope. Keep the tips coming!. And I forgot to leave my testamentary effects! I was so habituated to Pickles’ invasions that I never actually thought he would truly kill me. It figures. I don’t have a will in real life and I have kids and an attorney wife. Making a will would cut into my gaming time.

I think that I will be joining you next turn Dragonfire.
Your battle with pickles was amazing, I wish my defense was as successful.
Panther I bow before your superior tactics and thank you for a lesson well learned next time I will be searching frantically for magic sites from day one and watching the skies for false horrors.
I too want in on the next game with you guys.
Fight to the death.

Now that the game is over, I wanted to comment on this. The reason I went after you first, Steerpike, is that Arcoscephale is one of the races that can whip the false horrors from Caelum quite easily. All you have to do is research Thamauturgy first and then construction next (to get inexpensive starshine skullcaps and amulets of penetration for every single mage). With a nice pearl income from searching and clamming, you can use the sacred heart companions (with some priestesses to bless them, give them courage, and then heal everyone afterwards) or vine ogres to tank the horrors. Your back row mages will then then do mind control, paralyze, soul slay, and all the other nifty astral spells against the Caelum archers and mages, completely ignoring the mindless horrors! Light of the Northern Star is an absolute MUST spell for doing this, and it takes but one pearl to cast!

In one of my games in which I am about to die, I did this against Caelum and now have several seraphs and some bane lords (all without leadership, lol). It is not Caelum killing me, but instead is Mictlan and the devils.

Anyway, good game, Steerpike.

No problem with not using the pretty map.

How about Aduria? The map is not too important. Very difficult magic reseach is fine, too. I'm not too particular.

I would love to get into the new game playing PANGEA. Never played it MP, and very little SP.

Hey, I'd like to play too! This time I will not take Ermor, thank you.

I posted to this thread just because I want the 10 players from Last game to have first shot at the slots.

I have not played around with different victory conditions before, if there is one that allows you to set a winner for 50% of all provinces in the game that would be cool, as you say if someone gets to 50% provinces then they would most likely clearly win the game unless they only had one opponent left who had the other 50% of the provinces.

Once everyone here has had a chance to chime in, then it would be time to start a new thread for the next game.

It appears that the voting method shall be adopted, so if everyone who is interested in participating in the next game could cast a vote for any and all aspects of the MP setup that they feel strongly about, preferably in a list with each item clearly labeled and on a separate line, that would be great.

As for the map I am not too attached to any specific map, and it may be best to save the map choice for Last after we have a better idea of just how many people we are going to have in the game.

I notice I did not choose a race yet so I will call one now:

In the next game I would like to play as Marignon.

Race: Marignon

Me too, me too! And we all know who to dogpile on next game, don't we? Just joking.
