Sovarinthy - an EA game for somewhat busy people (in progress)

[Gregstrom]

Put me down for Fomoria, please.
Oh, btw: I'm running a couple of games with 4-day turns myself. It works quite nicely.

Mictlan, please.

Are we using CBM 1.3?

[Bananadine]

I don't know. I have only gone so far as to cavalierly decide to use the mod at all; I don't know anything about different versions of it. Is there a choice?

[charshep]

I love the idea of a slow game. Rlyeh please if there's still room.

Well my vote would be for CBM 1.3

It is the CBM mod now. It does remove the greater magic scale difference of 1.21 back to the normal game version but it balances some of the other scales.

The changes made were made after feedback from the earlier CBM versions and further experience of how the mod played and mp in general by the developers

Apart from that CBM 1.3 has the changes the developers of the mod wanted. To play any other CBM seems a little odd. It would be like playing the game but with the 3.10 patch. It would play but why deliberately choose something with less development in it unless you have some particular reason to do so?

[BesucherXia]

I have never used CBM before but would still enjoy it since I found almost every changes regading my races very helpful.
Yet if you were going to replace it with original version, I think it ok.

So I will keep neutral.

count me in, Sauromatia, thanks

I don't know! That is generally my thought about any sort of software--use the latest version unless there is some very special reason not to. You're heading me off from taking a path that I did not know existed. Can I assume there is some kind of controversy about which version of CBM is best? Well I guess that makes sense; the nature of CBM is to express one group's solution to the problem of imbalance in the unmodified game, which is itself another group's idea of sufficient balance. It is inherently controversial.

Anyway yeah we'll use the latest one.

Wow, there are a lot of smilies in this editor.
