Yet Another RAND Game (YARG)
Hi,
Pasha's RAND games are so much fun that although I'm already playing in one I have decided to host another one.
It is the first time I host a dominions III game. I plan to host it on llamaserver so hopefully the server will make sure the game runs smoothly.
At this point the game is open for both sign-up and discussion.
The following are the settings I had in mind. The ones I don't plan to change are in bold font.
Map: Glory of the gods (multilayer version)
Hosting Pace: First 15 turns every 24h, turns 15-30 48h, turn 30-45 72h, turn 45-60 96h, turn > 61 120h.
Hosting is planned for busy ppl.
Since I plan to play as well I will not be able to grant extensions, I will ask a non player to serve as a co-admin and will try to stay out of his way.
Mods: No mods.
Renaming: off
Research: difficult
Graphs: on
HoF: 15
Indies: 9
Disallowed exploits: copying Bogus' orders and overfilling enemy lab to prevent his own forge.
Victory condition: 9 vps. Each capital has 1 VP.
Nations: All LA nations, excluding LA Ermor and R'lyeh. This means 19 players.
Pretenders should be given randomly generated names or your nations name to prevent unintentional disclosure of player ID.
As for the nation assignment I do not plan to do this myself of course. I will consult with Pasha (the master of RANDs) re. how he suggests to perform that.
EDIT:
-> Zeldor has graciously agreed to roll nations for this game.
-> rdonj will co-admin the game. He will set the player's email addresses on the server after I create the game and handle extension requests.
-> For those who are not familiar with the term RAND.
RAND - Random Anonymous No Diplomacy.
Nations are assigned randomly.
Player's Identity is kept hidden.
Diplomacy or any form of communication is not allowed and is considered cheating.
-> Most players want LA Ermor and R'lyeh out so to make it simple and save debate let's just go w/o them.
-> After all players sign-up we shall wait a week for pretender creation. Then we start the game.
-> Please refrain from sending any in-game messages. Also, don't post here anything that can reveal information regarding you or other nations. No diplomacy or communications of any kind is allowed between players.
If you lose your identity is revealed. This is part of the fun in the game, guessing and 2nd guessing who is who until ppl start falling. If you do lose, please also refrain from posting anything with information on the game.
