- Zlefin's mod with F&W summons
- Burnsaber's UW enhancement mod with new units for water nations
If I manage I will also try to add:
- forgable const12 items [like bogus items, fire set etc]

09. JR77 - R'lyeh
10. Mozkito - C'tis

[chrispedersen]

If its EA I'd like to play Mictlan (prefer ea)
If its MA I'd still like to play mictlan.

[GrudgeBringer]

I'd take a shot at ARCO EA (prefer EA), would like to know what Holy War mod and other 'Mods do'.

Like the idea of making Clams, Bloodstoens ect uniques, However, I would feel better if I knew the level and the paths it would take to get them as we can look in the manual and see the others.

I know I am taking a weak nation but I 'think' (hope is a better word) I have figured out a way to make Arco a little stronger.

[Zeldor]

I will compile list of changes later. Gem generators are same paths as they were, just moved to const8, so only 1 of each can be forged.

[Strabo]

If unexperienced players are welcome, then I'm in as EA Tir na n'Og or MA Eriu, but my vote is for EA

[Black Sun Empire]

If this is newbie friendly, then count me in.
(I will not be upset if you would prefer more experienced players)

EA - Niefelheim would be my preferred.
MA - Jotunheim

[Dragar]

Tien Chi either era

[Zeldor]

Ok, we will go with EA then. Someone should pick water nations, to check their new units etc :)

[Alpine Joe]

I'd like to play in this. I also prefer EA.

[viccio]

If possible i play with EA Lanka

[Zeldor]

Ok, got some free time, so I have to focus on that game, to get it started :) Too bad I won't have enough free time to play in it.

[Zeldor]

I have some minor problems with joining mods, but I will get it working :)


Anyway, here are links for mods, so you can see what they have:
Holy War: http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/showthread.php?t=42638
Underwater mod: http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/showthread.php?t=43472
FW thugs: http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/showthread.php?t=43378
CPCS: http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/showthread.php?t=42165

I'd like at least one more person to join, so we have at least 8 people.

[JR77]

I would like to join as Hinnom (or you can assign me a water nation, if there is something specific you would likt to test :-])

/JR77

[Zeldor]

Nation choices are up to you :) But remember that there are some cool W and F things, so you may want to take nation that has access to them [well, Hinnom should be fine with F].

[JR77]

After reading a bit more about the concept of the included mods, I would like to choose R'lyeh instead of Hinnom.

I have not played them before, but there should be time to practice a few single play starts before the game :)

[Alpine Joe]

Alright I think I will go with EA ulm for my nation choice.

[Zeldor]

Ok. I will give time till tomorrow evening for any other people willing to join and close it after that. Should be ready to accept pretenders on Monday.

[JR77]

That sounds great - thanks for the effort!

Did you get my wish to change nation (am thinking you did, but the first post does not reflect it :))

[Zeldor]

Yeah, I was busy recently. Now I have free time at last, so will work on many things that got left behind :) Starting with update of first post.

[Mozkito]

Hey, got room for one more?

[Zeldor]

Sure, I still have to choose a map.

[Mozkito]

Can you hook me up with some C'tis then my good sir?

[Zeldor]

Sure, just got back home. Will merge mods soon and look for a map. Any suggestions?

[Zeldor]

Ok, I think we will go with Uraparrand. Hard to find perfect map for 2 water nations, that is closest to what we need. Don't let that 2 water nations too much space :P

Victory conditions - 4 capitals to win [so yours and 3 other ones].

I am hunting one last mod to make a modpack, so you can start making pretenders.

[Zeldor]

IT looks like llamas mod joining script does not like Holy War. Will see if I can fix it.

[Dragar]

' Zlefin's mod with F&W summons'

I can't for the life of me find this mod.. do you mean the Free Summons mod?

btw why aren't you in this game Zeldor?

[Black Sun Empire]

These are all the mods I've downloaded, is this enough?

I believe if you go in the mod browser (should be stickied up top) under the 'Mods, Maps and scenarios subforum' you can find it in there.

I think you also need the latest CBM? And I also think Zeldor is making a modpack so we can get them all in one go.

Theres a lot of I thinks in there, but I think I may be right ;P

[Dragar]

Ah it's the FW Thugs, thanks!

Hmm.. interesting, that changes my plans a little

[chrispedersen]

I've been waiting for zel to roll them all up into one nice mod for us.... is that a bad plan?

[Dragar]

no i've been doing likewise

[Zeldor]

You can download them separately to test a strat. I cannot get the joiner to work properly, I need to catch someone that made it work, or llamabeast. It may take me a while, so looking at the mods before joining is surely not a bad idea :)

And no, I'm already in 1-2 games too many. My gf would kill me if I decided to spend even more time here :P

[JR77]

I would like to cancel my involvement in this game, as I have become involved in three other games now, which will soak up all my Dom3 time.

Good luck with the project though! I really think it is a good idea to combine some of the best MP gameplay mods in one package! :)

[Zeldor]

That game won't happen. IF not the awful PM system, I'd contact everyone about it...

It seems to be impossible to join [and use together] necessary mods at the moment, at least until llamabeast makes renumbering script [I doubt anyone would like to do it by hand... it would take hours or days].
