MP: Retold - CBM (Dom3minions blitz game), started

[Tryfan]

Well in a small game like that I fully expect to be rushed by one person. But two inside of the fourth turn? Vanheim made a direct beeline for my capital right from the start like I was selling hookers and beer at 50% off... without knowing where or who it was! (at least, until turn 3)

Still, lots to learn from a game like this. I'll try to make the rivers flow red with the blood of... someone.

Thanks, Gandalf, once I am turfed from this one I'll see about setting up a bit larger one on your server. The custom made ones can be set to show whether or not everyone has played from outside the game like the regular ones?

Yes. Also scoreboards, and who stalls, can be seen without having to log in. Usually for a 9-turn period.
And turns can be emailed for those who like them as a backup feature.
Text message reminders to cell phones.
Allied and Boosted AIs added to the game.
Sneaky AI'd independents.
a "no going AI" lock on players
and lots more.

I prefer the no-menu challenge-me-to-come-up-with-something arrangement for game setup.

Those crazy skinshifters! They just go off in all directions. I can hardly control them. And the mercenaries! They're even worse...

As for rushing towards the capital - chalk it up to an unfortunate accident in geography. I skipped two independent territories of Elephants and Pegasus Riders, and then I saw Eriu.
