CB complete 1.3 and Worthy Heroes should be plenty, although hosting with both is redundant, I think.. I believe WH is included in CB complete.

Anyyyyyyway, you don't even need to enable them when you PLAY the game. You just have to have them installed. The only thing you have to MAKE SURE OF when playing a conceptual(ly) balance(d) game is that CB is ENABLED when you CREATE YOUR PRETENDER.

Otherwise there's a very good chance that when the game starts, it will say you are a cheater and give you an archmage with no extra magic and totally neutral scales, which you don't really want

Oh, whsiker, I have a suggestion to make. You are doing a lovely job as host, moderator, administrator, except you should learn to feel comfortable making decisions Just say, "yea CB!" Or even, "nae CB!" Just not both, because then we'll be back where we started. I'm worried I might accidentally delete my pretender before the game starts ;D

Indeed, as the game admin you are all-powerful. Just make arbitrary decisions! And cackle a lot.

So I'm playing yomi then? But we need to decide on CBM fast or I can't look into pretender creation since CBM also influences that...

So plz ASAP tell me which mods and upload and tell me which nation I'll be playing and give me a day or so to look into it

looking forward to playing

yeah, either way is fine but I need to redo my pretender...(SIGH)

WHY do I need to redo my pretender (besides being called a cheater and getting something stupid instead)?

Since we are all new and havn't played with it, what is different that we need to know that would affect pretender creation?

some of the pretenders are too useless .. or too automatically the only reasonable choice...
CBmod just adds a few points of cost here and subtracts a few there to try and even this out.... generally any tactic that is valid in one is valid in another.. it's just CBmod tries to make more choices of chasis reasonable choices instead of some being fairly unreasonable...


really i don't care one way or the other ... yeah... just be in charge and decide... add it to the first post.. post that you added it to the first post at the end... and give me 24h and i'll have it uploaded (also it'll have to have a name and exist on llamaserver)
