Re: Late Era Team Game
I have pimp but it won't load... can someone post a conversion of the map in this thread so I can just have a look at it?

Re: Late Era Team Game
If you dump into the dominions map folder, you should be able to view it by going "new map" and typing in the name of the rgb file. It won't have the province terrains and connections right, but you can at least look at the map.
Here's a jpeg.

Re: Late Era Team Game
How come the team in the bottom right corner's capitols are so far apart when everyone else is only 2 spaces.

Re: Late Era Team Game
No objections to the map. Looks fine to me.

Re: Late Era Team Game
BDA - That was intended to compensate for the fact that the team in the lower right has, effectively, fewer neighbors. This makes them more vulnerable to the neighbors they do have, because they'll have a harder time defending one another. Other reason is that, if you look at that part of the map, few provinces have exactly 5 neighbors. I'm not sure if this is a net advantage or a death sentence.....
I could push the northern yellow capital a bit south, and the orange capitals a bit south, if people prefer - but the starts might have to be a bit funkier if I did that.

Re: Late Era Team Game
Sounds good to me. I figured you had a reason for it. That's why I asked.

Re: Late Era Team Game
I will be pretty much unable to play until Friday. My video card in my PC died, and my Mac is very unstable playing Dominions. It reboots without warning after several minutes of playing the game.
I've been able to play my other MP games on my Mac by logging in, doing the bare minimum quickly, and logging out before the Mac reboots. But almost every game still requires several reboots before I can get my turn in.
A new video card has been ordered for my PC, and should be here by Friday. If we could wait to start til then, I would be most appreciative. If not, I can try to play turns on my Mac, but it will be iffy. Please feel free to replace me if this is a bother to the other players.

Re: Late Era Team Game
It's fine by me, so we'll wait until Friday, unless anyone objects.
We should try and keep things to a steady pace once we've actually started, however.

Re: Late Era Team Game
Can we do the pretender submission before friday though?
So we get the first turns on friday?
