		The spirit said: "I am the creator. I shall give them a scenario, so they recognize my splendour." 
 
And the players gathered and marveled in wonder at the scenario files they were suddenly given. 
 
The players rejoiced an in a chorus they said: "You are the creator, you have given us a new scenario, let us play!" 
 
But the spirit remained silent...

		Hello,  
I got diseased the other day (the flu actually    ) and I'm just beginning to catch up with things that has happened in the last couple of days.
 
The games will be set up by me and I had intended to keep a server running, but if there are groups that can keep their own server going I wouldn't mind sending fatherland files as well. 
 
I think I'll start a new thread with instructions.

		Quite a bit. Yesterday I could eat solid food again. Today I have been playing Dawn of War, so I'm definitely making progress. Tomorrow I might be able to set up the first Shepherds Games   
Actually, I'm in a bit of a chock. I never get sick. Not this sick. Not since I was like 12 or so.

		It looks like the mod is missing a couple of #end -lines. Namely, the changed descriptions of the Naga and the Son of Niefel. 
 
#selectmonster 157 
#descr "..." 
#end 
 
#selectmonster 605 
#descr "..." 
#end

		Will the game run with "very rare random events" or something? 
 
Otherwise, I wonder if you shure about the pretender designs? Take e.g. "Euryale" of Pangaea: 
Order: -3 Productivity: -2 Heat: 0 Growth: 3 Fortune: 0 Magic: -1 
 
Full turmoil but no luck, that means that you're in for a lot of random hurt. And with a starting/main province with "fresh water" you have a very good chance you get flooding fast, what will kill a good bunch of your pop early.

		I hope they are somewhat balanced. Most of them have some drawbacks and none are what players would characterize as optimal pretenders I suspect. I hope the map, scenario and interaction makes up for this.  
 
Common events. The chance for a flood is rather low though. It can only happen during summer (don't know why).

		You'll notice soon enough     
Also there is a lot of scripted provinces, pop-wise, site-wise or both.
