two v. two v. two v. two v. two (full)

[King Lear]

Just for my benefit, please dear friends, I have tried looking at the scale mod to see what it does. but with little success. Anyone here able to clarify it for me, as that would influence (slightly) my choice of pretender.

Oh, and while i'm at it, I would enjoy indi 8 a twinge more; gives a little more chance to have a mage that's not such a super combatant, and put more points into scales.

But I am simply one of many. =)

Scale Mod 1.2:
- Production/Sloth alters income by 4% a tick and resources by 15% a tick (was 2% and 10%, if memory serves).
- Growth/Death alters income by 4% a tick and population by 0.3% a turn per tick.
- Changes to the events, with Misfortune increasing the odds of getting a bad event more sharply, and less frequent rare events (I think).

So the Scale mod improves the two "weaker" scales of Production and Growth, and taking Sloth-3 or Death-3 should hurt you more. Luck is now a more appealing option, and Misfortune should be a bit more dangerous.

Ok, a very very bad problem:

My brother Hacker Pschorr is not able to play, so we would like to make the slot free for another team

We are really sorry about this, but it is just not possible!

Let's vote on the question of Independent Strength 8 vs. Independent Strength 9. If there's a tie, it'll stay at 9. I vote for 9, so currently it is a tie with King Lear in favor of 8 and me in favor of 9.

And by the way if you know of a team of players looking for a game, point them to this thread. :-)

We could change the game to a 4 way battle royale?

Team Hubris votes indies 9.

[Zooko]

No, I'm going to hold out for a fifth team.

Currently it is 2 votes for indies 9, 1 vote for indies 8.
