Hehe,

Well, they haven't started yet...they might still bail on me...

If they play the game for 90mins... it should be enough to hook them. The game usually has a one hour learning curve from people I've hooked with it. The extra 30mins is the time for them to obtain units, magic_sites and commanders which they grow attached to.
The hardest part is finding people who will play a game to the bitter end. I find lots of people who will just quit... which is the same as having your game character do suicide. No honorable death and glory with that.

Personally if I'm losing I prefer to have my last breath spitting into the eye of my enemy.

I can't seem to hook my friends. They see the graphics and go like "Blah this sucks" They don't see the wealth of content and strategy there is in this game.

Ok, so, I have another question. I am going to, hopefully soon, be starting a newbie game...and I would like to have an option for different maps. I tried the random maps generator site, but the graphics seemed pretty off-kilter...

SO, I am wondering, is there a place out there where I can find a bunch of cool maps to use? I can go with stock maps if need be, and I think I'll probably end up doing that...but thought I would check...

and, hey, if anybody wants to squash newbies, I am going to be starting a new MP PBEM game soon...

thanks,

Alarik

Hey Alarik,

i always i the mood of kicking asses of some n00bs :-)

Hehe,

let me know when you are ready

For maps, you can either go to Illwinter's own map downloads or to Arryn's Dominions site. There's a fair amount of overlap, but also some maps that can only be found on one or the other.

Yeah, I'd like to kill you, but for a different reason. Quit apologizing for being a beginner. (I hate the term "newbie," because it's way overused.)

I see it exactly the same!
