MP Yang: Newbie game EA CoD defaults - Running

Yet Another Newbie Game

It seems as though there is considerable interest by players such as myself transitioning from SP to MP who want to play, but given the depth of the game, are a little intimidated by the potential skill difference of the veterans. It is one thing to read a guide by Baalz and an entirely different thing to think of playing against him. Here is a game for newbies to give it a whirl against other newbies. I am currently [doing poorly] in my first MP game 'Rothfuss' as MA Pangaea.

I'm open to different mods/settings if the majority are also into them, but in SP I started with EA and played many games on Cradle of Dominions (great map) using default settings. My guess is there are other newbies out there who maybe had a similar path and would like to try MP in familiar surroundings.

Early Era
Map: Cradle of Dominions - (11 land starts)
Mods: CBM 1.41
Settings: default + renaming + magic sites 55

1. pyg - Fomoria
2. Alpine Joe - Marverni
3. Redeyes - Mictlan
4. P3D - Sauromatia
5. qio - Vanheim
6. Tolkien - Helheim
7. statttis - Pangaea
8. licker - Tir na n'Og
9. Trumanator - Arcoscephale
10. Quell - Caelum
11. Juffos - Yomi

I was just eliminated from my first multiplayer game (nightfall) so I would like to join this one. Are we picking nations yet?

Yup, Kailasa for you? Or no monkeys today?

Redeyes · #4 January 31st, 2009, 02:17 PM

Hey, I haven't finished any games yet though I just kicked Alpine Joe out of Nightfall :^)

As a game I subbed in abruptly ended due to crashing issues I would like to try something new, can I get in as EA Mictlan?

Hm, I'm in. Sauromatia if possible.

BTW It would be my first MP game.

Alpine Joe · #6 January 31st, 2009, 03:54 PM

Put me down for marverni

qio · #7 January 31st, 2009, 04:12 PM

EA Vanheim

Tolkien · #8 January 31st, 2009, 05:23 PM

I'll sign up as EA Helheim.

Trumanator · #9 January 31st, 2009, 05:51 PM

Lol, if I wasn't already so overloaded I would be interested, especially since it seems like all my games except Rothfuss are in the LA.

Good thinking.

If you still need players in another couple of days, then I'll join. My preference is not to use the full CBM, but I'm amenable to WH and CB Gods.
