I hear you there. I never found a use for the bakemono shaman of MA Shinuyama for example

What type of diplomacy are we talking here, anyway? All treaties are binding?

What?

Boring.

I imagine everyone's curious to check out their opposition and I've updated the first post with nation summaries. I'm having problems uploading attachments at the moment but once I've got the combined mod uploaded I'll let you know.

Since Yelloea had already claimed yellow I switched you from green to purple. Korwin, I switched you to white since P3D already had red. Colors ok with both of you?

How about something from Tolkein? I think "Moria, The Pond of the Slain" sounds suitably ominous for the Witch Kings.

Other than stating whether a game has diplomacy or not, I never make any rules regarding this. My experience has been that agreements are honored the vast majority of the time but if the game is on the line people may feel the stakes are high enough to violate a NAP. Aside from consequences in the current game, the main drawback to violating agreements is that the player may be viewed as an unreliable person to do business with in future games. Really depends on the person and the situation how they react. So, it's completely up to you how you want to approach diplo.

Ok, the mod is now attached to the first post. You'll probably want to start a test game to see the other nations' full lineups, but in any case please try a test game with your own nation. This was just a copy/paste job and everything looked ok to me but it never hurts to have someone double check things.

Another reminder: when designing your pretenders you'll want both CBM 1.92 and the game mod active.

I'm going to wait a bit to see if there are any errors in the game mod before uploading it to the server and creating the game.

[Squirrelloid]

make sure you load CBM first, as your pretender options will be vanilla versions otherwise.

It appears everyone has downloaded the game mod and since I haven't heard of any problems with it I went ahead and setup the game on the llamaserver.

I am soooo excited how my pretender design will work out ^^
