Yes, thats what I mean . I'm hoping that people will honor alliances and so on, but as the manual says "There can only be one."

I didn't want mods because it's a newbie game, and myself and possibly others are still learning the original game. I think adding mods will actually make it more likely for players to make bad choices.
If there's popular demand, we could restict the strongest nations like Niefelheim so nobody gets run over.

NP, whatever you want to setup is ok with me.

I'm not sure if I DID pick a powerful nation I would kmow what to do with it!!

Does Aran have preset starting positions? I have never played that map (Actually I have not played many maps as I havn't played much SP either) I just am on here listening and posting a lot (asking questions mostly).

Last thing and i'll be quiet...make sure everyone knows to not have any Mods enabled and have the 3.21 Patch ( I went thru that nightmare in my last game).

And are we doing 24 hour quickhost turns (so whenever everyone gets there turn in it automatically sends out the next turn) or are they preset. I only ask so that I will check my Computer more often if its quickhost.

Game on Gentlemen!!!

Turns are quickhost, starting at 24hrs. Later into the game I might increase to 48hrs or something if needed.

I don't know if Aran has set starting positions, is there some way to check?

Hallelujah
A game for I, a newcomer to the sphere of Dominions

May I join as Caelum?

I would expect any treaty that's publicly stated to be faithfully upheld.
Less than that and I hope backstabbing is on everyones' agenda

Most people like action, I'm one of those.

Redeyes,

From my understanding...anything goes means anything goes.

I asked that (see previous post on here) exact question because I know people have different ideas about agreements.

So I would be prepared to be backstabbed.....and if you are you must remember there are no 'Honor' reprecussions or anger expected.

ANYWAY, thats the way I read it and the Admin explained it.

I always keep my agreements to a fault in normal games...but there are a number of games that declare early that treaties are NOT binding.

I'll be the lizards of C'tis. I knew I forgot something

When I say anything goes that doesn't mean I want to encourage backstabbing, in fact I'd prefer it if allies are faithful. But there are no rules against breaking treaties. I like action
