Right, I vote for no diplo. Seems like the option that is the most fun. And it totally clashes with my normal playstyle.

Actually, LA Ermor and R'lyeh are broken, not because of their abilities, but because of what they do to the game. Whoever starts next to them has no choice but to fight them because of the horrible effects of their dominion. If you get into a war with them, and win, you will have nothing to show for it because of the fact that there dominion slowly dies off. All you will have is empty, useless provinces, no reward to show for your efforts, whereas, if you fought another nation, their provinces would provide you with a monetary and resourceful bonus.

Well, I did play a fair amount of MP games back in the day, but that was a little over 4 years ago before the newfangled CBM. I'm not sure how well my skills will hold up after several years away from dominions.

OK anyway it would be a shame to reject a potential player.
So i ll add you but as a vet. (which means you probably won't have access to diplomacy)

The bad thing is i have to set another map =)
This one was looking good.

What if my dominion is stronger than Ermors or R'lyehs? Then their bad effects shouldn't spead right?

Pretender is uploaded. And Abysias Name is Herbiedu. His Account is still not activated but his pretender is up also.

Ok so i picked an other map for 12. I hope everybody will be fine with it.

Here is the description of the map :
This is the version of Cradle used in TigerStripes, again with 12 hand-placed land starts. Note that you can't download this map file - it's only on the LlamaServer, so the start positions will remain a surprise.

Does that mean no download necessary ?
