I agree with 35% (or lower) site frequency. I really like magic being interesting, and well kitted out thugs/SC's to be a concerted strategy to pursue, rather than one just being able to do everything at once by late game.

The 35% over in NewbsGoneWild has been really interesting; I've enjoyed it. Though, I have been burning through pearls really quickly.

Hey Guys. I'm new here and I would like to join in. One quick question though. Where it says 48 - 72 hours quickhost. Is that the time between turn hosts? Or the time expected to finish the game?

NaivePhilosopher · #74 February 11th, 2011, 12:39 PM

48-72 hours means that you have that long per turn, quickhost means that the next turn will immediately go into effect once everyone playing has passed in their turn.

It will also be hosted on a direct connect server so you have to check in yourself. (I would really like to get an email, but I guess that isn't possible).

DarkAvenger211 · #76 February 11th, 2011, 12:47 PM

Ah ok. Well I'm in then. Do I need to connect to the server now and set up?

iRFNA · #77 February 11th, 2011, 12:50 PM

The server isn't up yet as we are waiting on the soon-to-be released update to CBM 1.8. You can claim a nation now that isn't taken and I'll put it in the OP, and I'll post when the server is up and such.

When the server is up, I will PM you the port. Make sure your PMs are enabled, as I believe they are disabled by default!

I don't know. I don't think yet. You'd better first determine which nation you want to use, and what kind of pretender you want to have. And test it out. In SP.

I'm a little new to this. But I would like to try LA Ermor.

I'm not sure of my god yet but I'll figure it out. I don't intend on being a huge player in this game :P. Gotta learn how multiplayer works

Well, you have some time to decide. Experiment a bit in SP.

Now I'm just glad I have lv 2 priests and cleansing water.

Btw, if you start messing around in SP thinking of how people might try to fight against you and decide you want to try a different nation, you are by no means locked into whatever your current choice may be until the game actually starts.
