Viva la mod!

If any of you wouldn't mind, I'd like (after you choose your pretenders and get underway) a brief synopsis (in perhaps an Email?) of your Pretenders, why you chose them, and if you originally chose something else with the same intention but chose your current Pretender instead.

P.S. I know that there are alot of newer players out there, so even if the answer is: "This one looked cool" I will of course accept that too

I just downloaded the Zen mods. I had no idea it was so easy!

He is up to 1.81, by the way. And I must admit that I like it. Changing the GK to 30 points per path is truly a good thing, and no longer makes it the no-brainer for many races like it is now. It even makes the VQ look more attractive once again when compared to the GK. It also allows one to possibly select a human rainbow pretender and not be giving the game away!

So....

I guess I have to change my vote in favor of the 1.81 Zen mod, which means I cannot use my 20 point path GK that I carefully crafted for Abysia over the weekend. But it seems the right thing to do.

Heh, so it turns out we had four GKs in this game: Jotunheim, Caelum, Ermor, Pythium.

And as for the new game, we can call it "Slightly Less Newbie Slugfest".

Remember, I want C'tis. Slurp, slurp.

The Panther · #**315** October 26th, 2004, 01:38 AM

OK, I have tabulated the claims so far:

Grim Knight - Marignon (host)
Panther - Abysia
Steerpike - Jontunheim
Pasha Dawg - Pangaea
Deccan - C'tis
Dragon Fire - TBD
Krool Death - TBD

Not heard from yet:
Baboune
Beorne
Pickles

Hey, congrats on the win Panther - now if only there were trophies to bring home to Albuquerque.

Hey thanks, Cainehill. Even though I could not convince you to attack Jontunheim when you subbed for Pasha, you did a good job despite that!

Grim Knight · #**317** October 26th, 2004, 06:06 AM

Yes Panther congratulations are in order, even though I finished second place in most graphs I am very skeptical that I could have defeated you, even if I had jumped on the attack panther bandwagon with everyone else, and beleive me I was invited and encouraged to do just that many times.

So I think even if the game had continued and we had gotten into a conflict you would have won.

Hah! His evilness hath been revealed!

It's fine with me to use the mod... I just need to figure out how to set it up. Is it easy to switch between mod and non-mod games?

Since you're not hosting, you only need to have it installed, you won't need to activate it. The game will automatically use the correct mod if the turn file calls for it. You will need to enable the mod to create your pretender though.
