Default EA Game - \"Strolling\" Started! Fight!

Ok, I am starting the thread from the "Looking for a Newbie game" http://www.shrapnelcommunity.com/thr...fpart=1thread. This game is for new to mid range player and we already have 8 players an 4 votes for EA. Players so far:



Cerlin - Tir na n'Og
real_friend - Agartha
Wrana - Helhiem
ossa - Vanheim
Zenphos - Maverni
Herode - Yomi
Nerildar - T'ien chi
gowb - Arcosephale
Salamander8 - R'lyeh
Kadelake - Sauromatia
Duncan_frost - Ulm
Folket - C'tis
SiyfkA - Nieflhiem
johnarryn - Abysia


Ok some Parameters we can talk over:

Number of starting provinces: 1
Strength of independents: 7
Special site frequency: 45
Money Multiple: 100
Resource multiple: 100
Supply multiple: 100
Random events common
Score graphs enabled
Hall of Fame entries: 15
Standard research
Victory Point conditions (for each players Capital)

We haven't discussed any rules yet, but how about EA, worthy heroes, the rest vanilla unless people want to propose anything. Map Is also up in the air, but I will look at some and see...unless anyone else has ideas. List your factions! People are full up. Also I was thinking Victory point victory may be best, say half the players capitals?. Ok I will add more later.

Also the most important bit of information, we are planning to host this on Llamaserver (he already offered.) So this will be a PBEM game.

Here is the FAQ for Llamaserver ways!

Also for those of you who dont have it, Worthy heroes 1.8:

Edit: Ok I think 13 is a good number, now for maps and such. Also for the last couple people to read this and pick their Nation.

Hum well I'll choose Abyssia, as I said in the other thread.

About victory conditions : setting it at 1/2 capitols could be tricky. Some nations have stealthy units, I've already seen and heard of unexpected end of games with stealthy armies suddenly capturing strategic points. I would say at least 1/2 capitols + 1 and keeping it >3 turns or something like that. But I'd rather vote for a victory on dominion or provinces points.

Worthy Heroes is OK for me, has it been updated to fit the last Dom patch ?

I think that worthy heroes still works fine with the current patch even if its the same version.

And your idea is not bad herode! Maybe keeping for 3 turns or something may be best. but if more people want Dominion of provinces, let me know.

Default Re: EA Game - \"Strolling through the EA\" New to mi

Hi,

I would like to play if the game is not already full.

I would prefer to play MA, but I have no problem with EA or LA.

I'll choose my nation when the age is decided.

I also don't have any problem with the worthy heroes mod.

Hi, i'd like to join if possible.
I'd prefer either EA or LA. Ulm if EA, T'ien Chi if LA.

Hi!
I'd like to join as Sauromantia. I've played one MP game before so I'm kind of a newbie. How many games have all you others player?

After a short review of available nations, I'll try Yomi (and vote EA!). These demon things are odd and weird, let's see if I can get something out of them
