Cool concept. I'm at (well past ) my limit of mp games right now, but if I die quickly enough in some of them before this game starts, maybe I'll hop on. Otherwise, I could be an alternate.

I've looked at and played with the hero mod - I think it's a good thing. Without it, only a couple of nations actually care much whether or not they get their heroes, meaning yet another reason misfortune is appreciated.

Using the mod, it seems that any time a hero shows up it's good news; the ones that were previously uber-heroes are still uber-heroes, but the ground-pounding commanders with no magic paths are now equally welcome and useful.

Is there a central place from which all the mods for this game can be downloaded?

At this rate, we may see turn 5 by X-mas. C'mon, peeps, the game is on! The fun has begun! Play your turn already!

So when do we go to 48-hour forced hosting? hehe

A switch to 48 hours was considered after having gone on a server; I am reluctant enforcing a deadline for the first turn, as there can always be problems with mods and the like.

RonD made a very good point about the status mails: in this game, the players being late should be named, instead of naming their nations. That way, apologies can be made, or they can publicly ask for more information, and so on (it won't work in TCP/IP).

For this turn, you should contact me privately if you have any problem, like a missing turn file, mod problems...

Hmm, looks like something fishy is going on in the waters...
