no worries, pure noob here only had the game for about a week - only played demo nations and nilf, and 1 sauro (which i like). All EA.

I generally poke at ones I'm sure of winning till i get the dominating force then go romping. Works fine in SP, just started a few MP games so I can see how it changes.

Are you using a melee god? Even so, I'm leery of sending in my starting force + god vs 70-90 indys without reinforcing first.

You interested Kiss? Response seems to be lukewarm to this idea but no one is really posing alternates. I wonder if I should just post the game itself and see if people will get more excited about that.

I like your idea Ironhawk. But I like power gaming and the settings you are suggesting are for a power game. Sadly, I have'nt commented earlier because due to evil work I cannot join any more MP's at the moment.

Why don't you try it on a small map with just 8 players? That may be fun...

I would give it a try.

But I, of course, would rather just blitz the turns.

Yeah thats a good idea, meglobob, maybe I will start out small. 8-10 players is probably a good size, anyway, since my thought for this game is that it would also resolve itself faster than normal. So a regular dom3 game might last 3 months or something. Whereas this one might only last 1.5.
