Last update: Feb 28th 2012

Host:PBEM Llamaserver.
Age: MA
Map:Cradle of Dominion (12 players)
How Often on Turns: 24 hours quickhost to turn 20 (or requests), 48 hours from there, slow to 72 hours late game if necessary.
Number of Players: 12
Mods: CBM 1.92 and I personally use the Streamers and Standards mod (llamabeast version) and the Community Sprites Mod.
Non-Standard Settings: Special Site freq. 45%, Hall of Fame entries 15, Renaming is allowed, No graphs.
Victory Conditions: Last one standing
Diplomacy Policy: None; do as you wish, keeping in mind consequences in future games, as well as later in that game (if you stab someone early, any alliance later in that game is likely to prove less trustworthy). Trades should be fulfilled
Cheesy Tricks: New players won't know them and won't be ready for them. This is things like sending 50 bad items to someone right as they put up forge of the ancients to make them waste gems, using scouts to constantly siege someone's fortress, and there are probably a few others I historically read about but have since forgotten.

NATIONS (12/12)
My race: Caelum. (and no, I don't mind losing)
Parone: Ulm
Blubbernaught: Pangaea
Legowarrior: T'ien Ch'i
Groundworm: Bandar Log
don_Pablo: Abyssia
Mattyburn7: Ashdod
Dojango: Machaka
Ossa: C'tis
Zywack: Shinuyama
Ragnarok-X: Vanheim
Earcaraxe: Oceania

Note: Please mind that this is supposed to be a newbie friendly game, so leave the stronger nations for the newbies and be so kind as to choose a weaker nation if you have enough experience with Dom 3. We should all be able to learn from eachother.

Note2: The hosting time limits are slightly indicative, but we are pressed to make them whenever possible. In other words; if you can't make the turn limit, be sure to post in this thread to let me know in advance so I can extend the time.
I have an irregular working schedule with stops abroad sometimes, so I might put in the odd request for a few more hours/days as well.

Note3: (By Lung Drago) As this is a newbie game I optimistically do not expect to meet problems regarding using of exploits that I stumbled upon reading on these forums. But just for the record, I dislike such behavior. Stay fair, people. If you cannot swallow a defeat, then you will be a newbie forever. In spirit of my previous sentence, please do not go AI after a single major battle lost
I will keep this fist post updated with status changes and info as it comes through.

Note4: Remember to keep an eye on the turn interval. I will update changes in interval in this thread.
Be sure to report EARLY if you will not be able to send in a turn in time.
WE CANNOT USE THE ROLLBACK FEATURE! Due to possible savegame corruption.

(Thanks to 3V4JKZ2 for the above format )

I'm in. This will be my first multiplayer ever, although I've played SP off and on for a year or so. I'll take Ermor if it's open.

Yes, you should download the mods and unzip them into the dominions/mods folder.

When you create your pretender, make sure that you have at least CBM 1.92 enabled, as the mod changes the potential pretenders costs a bit. I recommend having the listed mods enabled (and no other ones enabled) when creating the pretender.

Since CBM makes some big changes overall, might want to try playing around with it in single player a little to get a feel for it. If I remember right, Ulm has been tweaked a bit from the vanilla.
