Apparently MadFrancis and I will be teammates.

There is a bit of concern, looking at this map. Is there really enough room for 2 nations in any of those start areas? You did say the map was "modified", but unless you modified it to greatly increase the province count in those little pockets, I foresee a lot of early game "friendly fire" Dominion kills.....



(EDIT - I think the Faerun map would be awfully nifty.....)

i'll play, although i'd like my teammate to be an irc-regular if possible just so i don't have to stress out about difficulty of communicating with them... also i might get someone to agree to be my teammate by asking in irc but who knows ...

is it possible to setup llamaserver to email a .trn file to TWO email accounts?


if possible i'd like my teammate to receive all my .trn files and i'd like to receive all of his.....

just to prevent half-stales and also make it easier to communicate about the map and the troops and such

What is a newbie regarding the "no two newbies" -rule? A person new to Dom3 MP, a person new to Dom3 PbEM MP, a person new on these forums, whatever the GM decides on ad hoc -basis?

Reason I ask is that I am trying to lure one of my friends from another forum to team-up with me, but, as we haven't played in team-games, we might be regarded as newbies and thus fail the application.

Phalent, Apsophos:

What is your experience? You have a low post count and I'd prefer to see people with 3+ games here [but as long as we have free spots everyone is allowed to play].

Jarkko:

I think newbie is someone with less than 3 multiplayer games [or at least 1 game with end-game experience, some blitzes are a plus]. Someone could maybe make a test "Are you a newbie?" But if you know how communion [and reverse ones too] work, how to make and counter SCs etc you are not a newbie.

Ok, then I think I am not a newbie according to those standards I am a slow learner, but I think I have figured out a thing or two during the pasts years playing Dom2 and Dom3 MP Now all I need is to get a partner Please give me time until today evening (European time) to give a definite answer

If you want both players to get all the turn files you should set up a forwarding account and have the LlamaServer send turns to there. The forwarding account should then send the e-mail on to both of you.

For instance, you can get a free forwarding account here: http://ef.bigfoot.com/ef/en/infopage....moreinfobasic

I am currently playing in 4 games on llamaserver, been eliminated from two other (my first two). Phalent and I played a couple of short games to show him the basics.
I would say I'm still newbish and Phalent even more so. If you fear that such newbishness is a severe threat to game balance, we would accept to team with someone else (well, I would, but I think Phalent would be interested in a mentor/apprentice team so he could better kick my a** in our private games).

What are you afraid of? Us being swallowed early by a single team?
