Another Newbie Slugfest - Restarted

Uhm we need to restart again . Grim seems to have forgotten to set indies . All my neighboring provinces are free of military

Same here unless nobody minds no indeps we could continue to play. I just got one of my national heroes too.

ROFL!!!

Another big fat oops! The Indies are set to 0, not 9. I have done this before, it's easy to do. Just accidently go one past the 9, and viola! Free provinces everywhere!

When we restart yet again, I am requesting that commander renaming be allowed. I forgot to ask that and notice that it is still off in the current restart. Renaming is an easy thing to do to ease the pain of micro management later in the game.

*sigh*

I don't think I have ever played a game that is harder to get a game going than Dominions...

Comon lets seriously keep the 0 indies. It means faster expansion and early wars with national troops because of the very difficult research. You know you want to keep this current game!

Yeah i wouldn't mind continuing with 0 indeps as well

.

It would be at least an interesting game . Mainly indies just slow down the start of fighting but nothing else .
So lets try this game with indies 0

Personally, I would rather not have indies 0. I suppose that having a low level of indies makes sense of a very difficult research game to allow for battles between national troops, but taking provinces left and right with scouts seems cheap to me.

I think I like fighting better than grabbing. I vote for a restart.

Ok, Game Restarting Again. I am truly sorry. I started it just before I went to bed, and obviously went past 9.

I too feel 0 Indies is just too cheap.

Game is restarted and ready for upload of new pretenders.

By the way, how the heck do you rename commanders. I have tried and tried and tried to do this but nothing seems to work.

Is it in the manual, if so just tell me the page, or to RTFM I admit I have done as usual and laid the manual aside as soon as I got the box open, I have looked for it breifly in the manual but no luck.

Thanks, Grim Knight.
