I'd love to see an EA game, also. I'd want Agartha, of course.

Sounds like a good idea, there's no particular reason I keep on running MA games. Guess I'll start one in two or three weeks then.

Okay, Tien-Chi in this Chinchalla game it is, then. I'm at work, so when I get home later tonight I'll create and email a Pretender.

I do have some experience playing a game with a coworker--but we have only played as allies against the computer. So I know all about how the turns work in MP, but this will be my first game playing against devious, manipulative, fiendishly intelligent *humans*. I'm (mostly) not joking when I say I expect to lose, and badly. I haven't even read up on the forums to check tactics. I really should...

Looking forward to this.

I am recently into 2 MP games, there is lots of good info and strategy in the forums. Searching by what you want/race etc. works well.
Who you calling devious!?

Pretender sent, llamabean. I assume I'm still on for this game as Tien-Chi?

One request: could you please *please* PLEASE turn renaming on? Tien-Chi has so many magic path options, I've taken to naming my mages for their paths, because it was driving me *NUTS* having to click on each. and. every. mage. I. built. to find the one(s) with the path I needed.

Please. : )

Edit: Heh. And then I read up above that Tien-Chi is considered relatively weak for MA MP. Anyone know why? I'm curious, because I found them quite strong in SP play... (I'll still be playing them in this game regardless, however.)

I'm guessing it might be a lack of high level mages? I'm not sure, I've never really seen them as all that weak either.

Also, if it is okay with everyone, I'd like to start quicklyish/soon.

llamabean?!

Yep, renaming's on.

Since this game's been taking forever to start, I reckon we should start now - 12-14 players was my target after all. I'll get it going in the next hour or two...

Edit: IndyPendant: Thanks for getting your pretender in so fast, that was great. I don't know why T'ien Ch'i are considered weak. I took a quick peek at them and they look quite good.

You know, you should try hitting F1. It works wonders to find just the mage that you want.
