MP Game, Early Era, Random Nations, Victory Points

The devils are hungry and particularly like Herse blood. None can hope to stand against the Mictlan empire and the hungry hordes from hell!

Small suggestion - since in this game we don't have automatic email notification at this point, maybe we could declare the "Turn NNN has been hosted" in this thread? That is much faster to check than having to connect to the server periodically, especially if you(like myself) have to retype address because you are playing more than one MP game.

The Dwarves of Vanheim are on the march. Soon the canyons and deep places of all the world will echo with the sound of Dwarven stilts against the hard earth and quake with haunting battle-operas sung by crossdressing Dwarven patriarchs. The Dwarven armies are legion and, despite the lowering of standards to include genetically inferior Vans and Herses, are literally superhuman.

Posturing aside, their triumph is a foregone conclusion. But the Dwarves are prepared to win graciously; unconditional surrender ensures serfdom in the future dwarfocracy. Simply post a message indicating your complete subservience and the terrible Spiked Codpiece of the Dwarves shall pass you by.
Defiance, on the other hand, warrants infliction of the Dwarven race's humane capital punishment law, Dismemberment by the Branches of a Thousand Mighty Oaks.

Choose wisely.

Corwin:

If u want in windows you can create one shortcut for each Dom3 mp game. Just modify the path of a Dom3 shortcut this way (for example):

"C:\Program Files\dominions3\dom3.exe" --tcpclient --ipadr 68.148.13.231 --port 10101 --nonationsel

this is very fast and u can create bilions of shortcuts, one for each mp game (just keep one non-modified shortcut for obvious reasons). I renamed mine:

"Agartha EA MP"

You can rename yours:

"The Agartha-is-too-stong EA game"

Ah, cool. Thanks Arameyan! I'll kill you last.

Make sure to delete the original random map file if you connected to the game before I had to restart it, otherwise, you'll be playing on a map that doesn't match what's happening in the game.

Turn 2 is up, please check and make sure that everything worked properly.

Will it cause a problem to delete and re-create the map file even though we've already taken turn 1?

I don't recall if I did my turn before or after your announcement.

I assume the map is in the \maps folder. Is it called _randommap_randomnation.rgb?

Yes, that's the correct file, and no, it shouldn't cause a problem if you delete it, as the server will automatically send it to you when you reconnect.

Thanks a lot Arameyan, it's very good to know!
