New Mod Nations Game: Mods over Europe (finished)

Sombre · #1 August 7th, 2007, 07:17 AM

I haven't tried his hoburg nation, but from the concepts (0 gold high resource cost units for example) I think it must have been quite hard to balance. I'm willing to take a look at it tonight.

I was taking my time with a new release of Arga Dis because I thought no-one was playing it this time around, but I can get it released and put out a cbm version tonight, possibly. CBM balancing it is slightly harder than with my other nations though. We'll see.

I'm slightly perturbed by the dropping out and switching going on in this game so far, so I want to say this much:

If you don't have time to play in this game, you aren't really that interested, you have no patience for potential problems arising from mods or you're in too many games already, please say so now so we can replace you. We won't be annoyed if you do, we'd be more annoyed if you started then dropped out after a few turns or something.

Oh one other thing, I'd like to remind Dr P that this game uses the Conceptual Balance Mod and nations which attempt to follow its balance scheme.

I remember you saying you completely disagree with CBM, so I thought I'd check that you still want to play.

lch is currently planning a third mod game which will be 'anything goes' and obviously won't use CBM at all.

Yeah, I don't care for CBM, but the latest versions aren't as bad.

I can see that my LA Hoburgs would be hard to balance against some fixed standard.

Anyway, I'm curious about how these customized nations play out.

Since the nation is already done, I'll do Haida Gwaii instead of Dis. For one thing, latest version of Dis seemds to be overnerfed somewhat already.

Good, good, so we have no changes to the nations and we can use the same mod. Everybody, design your pretenders and send them to me by mail, please.
Don't forget to set a password and include it in the mail.

Please send me your password for your pretender, too.

I can't decide -
I can do an imprisoned master lich with great scales and diversifying magic.

I can do a dormant great sage with good scales and diversifying magic.

Or I can do an imprisoned (Totem Pole?) with 9A/9W/4N, and kill you all with bears. Electric bears. Raichu, the coalition forces choose you!

Anyone want to help me break my deadlock? Use reverse psychology on my reverse psychology and answer the question truthfully
