NEW EA GAME - Server Is Up. Game has started.

[chrispedersen]

Mods: Worthy Heros.
Map: Random, Large. See attachment
Victory: VP. Each cap is 1. 8
for the win.
Independents: 7
Graphs: Off
Server IP: 74.236.0.134 port 1224
Stales: After 2 stales subs or AI will be sought.

Exploits: 1. If you capture Bogus and his friends, you can script those captured units to attack mages, but you cannot copy their "attack mage" orders to any other commanders or units.

2. You cannot cast battlefield enchantments that cause damage to enemy units, then retreat the casting mage before 5 rounds of combat passes. In other words, if you cast Wrathful Skies, you cannot order that mage to retreat before 5 turns has passed (your last available scripting order can be retreat). And this rule includes items that cast such spells.

3. You cannot overload someone’s lab with the purpose of maliciously filling it so they cannot receive or forge items.

4. Items that provide an unspecified armor bonus (such as bracers and some helms) will stack earth blessings, incorrectly.

To ban these items from people with earth blesses is unfair. To have others fighting SC's with prots of 38 is also unfair.

Proposed: Anyone with an earth blessing may have one item per SC that provides an unspecified armor bonus.

This will essentially give them +4 or so armor bonus from the bug, but limit it to one free bonus.

5. Guys, I can't police all the possible exploits. Play fair!

Standard Otherwise

Looking for 24 hour turn arounds, for first 40 turns or so, liberal delays if requested.

We are at 15 players. Game has started. Just finished creating the script files. I'm new to hosting so please bear with me if there are a few kinks in the process.

[hunt11]

sure I would like to play as Abysia

[Zenzei]

Sign me in as Caelum.

EDIT: I think it would be a good idea to define the exploits a bit more clearly.

[parcelt]

I'd like to play Lanka.

'server hosted' means we'll ask to use e.g. the llamasever?

[Griefor]

I'd like to play as Sauromatia.

[Aezeal]

hmm I want in, I'm not that familiar with EA though only tien chi, niefelheim and lanka really .. lanka is taken and I didn't care much for Tien

so I'd like Niefelheim.

I'll look into EA more and maybe chance to whatever is free but ... so far let's make it Niefelheim

[Aezeal]

I need a few days to play the race to see what pretender I need though, without a guide out I'll need to look into more options so I'll really have to play more than only the few first turns I usually do.

When will the game start aprox?

[parcelt]

Aezeal, wasn't chrispederson looking to play Hinnom?

[Aezeal]

ow right the new race... completely missed that

well pretender design for that nation isn't all that easy anyway so a nice double bless doesn't go well with the O3 P3 I'd like. And then B highish for the lords.

I'm gonna kill him before he can release lords of civilization though

[Cadel]

I'll take ea Ulm. If there's still a opening.
