MP: Crusaders - Mod Heavy Ea game [Game Over - Kietsensei wins!]

Why do you think the Shrine of Sombre should be an underwater site?

When are we starting Amonchakad? I've got my pretender designed and everything! Turns out Tir na n'Og are pretty fun!

Because it lets you recruit sea serpents, that are underwater only?

Also, if we are playing with the land of legends, someone probably needs to work on starting locations. I have started in locations with as few as 2 neighbors. Which sucks pretty bad.

Also, switch arco to Tien Chi. That way I can almost guaranteed try out most of burnsabers spells.

Nice to see you llama!

How are we going to handle diplomacy? Do we allow breaking NAP or not?

Turns out there's a problem with Crusade.dm, where Shrine of Sombre recruits unit 2890 instead of 2891. It probably wants fixing.

I don't know if that's an issue with the original mod pre-merge, or llamabeast's merging perl.

Well it's meant to recruit bog beasts, which is why it's called the Shrine of Sombre (Sombre always talks about bog beasts), and hence should be a land site. Unfortunately I don't have the DB here to check the unit numbers.

As for diplomacy I am all for Machiavellian, i.e. you can break NAPs if you want, and people cannot get annoyed with you as a player (although they can of course get annoyed with your nation and pretender!). It's up to Amonchakad to decide though.

2890 and 2891 are copies of the sea serpent and bog beast respectively - both are defined within the dm file. It's about 30 seconds' worth of fix - I could post up a corrected file if desired.

Also, I don't know if we're using legends or not, but I can tell you with 10+1, it was decidely cramped in my test games.

I don't mind - but others may ..

[Dragar]

i tested legends as well, start positions were pretty awful

[Aethyr]

I agree; perhaps a larger map would better?
