I'll put in a request for zens scale mod (v1.2) if the other players do not object. I like it being more worthwhile to pick something besides order, sloth, death, and misfortune
Where can I find information regarding the changes in zen's scales mod.
or maybe somene can list briefly the major changes.
thanks.
*Double the normal income effect for each point of death or sloth scales (still less than a point of order).

*50% more pop growth/death from death scale, and 50% more/less resources from sloth.

*Misfortune 1/3 more likely give bad events.

*1/3 higher chance for rare events.

And that's it. But let me tell you it makes a huge difference (for the better).

A notice about the fatherland file Panther; you may already be aware of this, but I guess repeating something never hurts. The problem of this file is that you cannot entrust it to the players, but it is the most important file for a game: the fatherland file can recreate the .trn files, and allows the hosting of the game.

So, you should back up the fatherland files somewhere, in case of a hard drive crash or some such (granted, I am paranoid). A FTP somewhere or a floppy/CD-Rom would do the trick; alternatives include sending it to my own backup mail on Gandalf's server (but that may defeat part of the point in having an host not involved in the game), or perhaps even encrypting the file. Gandalf is also working on a small upload routine, so that may be another solution.
