Edit: There was a slightly grouchy post here.

llamabeast:

I was going to probe interest first and see if there are enough people interested in a game with mods. I know that most new people prefer vannilla version. So sorry for not writing first, I hope you are not angry

[Thrawn]

I would love to play, if I'm 'semi-newbish' enough.

[Heinrich]

I am "totally-newbish", never played any MP game at all.

I ask no mercy, just a small slot on this game would be great (if there is any one last)

[Zeldor]

Thrawn:

List how much you have played and how long in that games, so we will see.

Heinrich:

There is rather a big difference in 1st MP game and even second. It is good to try at least some blitz games, you learn then a lot about designing a pretender, which is much much different than in SP. With vanilla game some races are unwinnable and I hope that CBM will help it at least to some degree.

I've played in 2 games here and lost. Have played about 6 other games through a different forum. But I'd be interested in this. I'd consider myself maybe semi to advanced newbish. Played enough to know that communion spells are great. But have also killed a lot of mages using them.

[llamabeast]

no worries Zeldor.

Phoenix Pyre?

To everyone wanting to join, check if you know what communions, SC, thugs, raiding, bless, etc mean

[DonCorazon]

The Mighty Grom returns! Thanks Zeldor.
My preference is FFA and hidden stats.

PS I have yet to use communion so guess I am still a pure Noob though I will grab some coffee and read the guide for this game.
