LA Ermor is especially thematic, but also i think EA Formoria may be a not too brain tasking race. Lots of giants, do well with or without a bless. Decent PD, glamor, death magic, nice random heroes too.

I will wait until Rather has chosen his nation before I randomly generate the rivals for the evil races. Be sure to look over the rules of the game, paying special attention to what your faction is allowed to do.

Also be sure to read over what spell combinations or actions are considered in game abuse. Anything listed in the "Abuse" poll is considered abuse. This includes using MoD with any battlefield enchantment and fleeing the field, using the siege bug to move multiple spaces.

Straight from the host to clarify:

Quote:

Casting battlefield enchantments and retreating is okay, but doing the Mists of Deception combo with Wrathful skies is not okay. Vengeance from the Dead is okay, but no other exploit on that thread is allowed.

If you have any questions concerning the rules after the game starts, feel free to to PM me if the question would compromise your position in the game due to CUknown having the information.

If there are any questions about what will be considered an exploit in this game and what is not, now is the time to ask them.

Heres to a clean RP themed game. Let's get it on!

Kheldron:

From what I;ve seen only really experienced players may play as neutral.

Well then if only really experienced player may play neutral, it obviously rules me out.
I've only played 3 MP games, and only 2 beyond turn 40...:-/

Have fun guys

Kheldron, while I think the neutrals have the toughest job (basically you have to conquer the map - alone) you should get a fairly peaceful start and a beginning boost. Not bad for a newer player.

No one really knows how this game will play out so I am not sure why you can't be neutral. You may get swarmed by good (or evil) at some point but I am not sure if its many against one that even experience will help that much.

But personally I hope you are not banned for being fairly new to mp. And I can't see any real reason for it.

Okay, we will take one more, but the game is full now, guys! She canna take any more, cap'n!

Kheldron, you are a proud, lonely Neutral. What faction were you thinking?

Oh, and make sure you understand the game rules. For Neutrals, the major rule is that you are not allowed to coordinate attacks with anyone, Good or Evil. You can pretty much speak your mind, but no direct mentioning of your battle outcomes (i.e. I lost 1 commander, 20 regulars; he lost 0 commanders, 100 regulars), force strengths, etc. And especially no saying "You attack #14, I will attack #28."

Which map are we using? Orania? Doesn't that have set magic sites? Knowing where x, y and z are is lame.

Or am I hopefully missing something. In my test games they are set so..

I can't connect to server. Is it down for any reason?
It seemed others encountered problems after connecting, which I can't. Or is it the same problem with you all?
