Default Re: problem with Dom3Minions server

These games are created in batches.
I try to keep 6 open games (2 in each era) at all times in each type.
These games are good for either a "turn a day" game, or for getting together and doing turns like a solo-game trying to finish it in one day. If you do not wish to join and just wait for others then I recommend reading the "How to Organize a game on the Dom3Minions Server" thread on Shrapnels Dominions 3 forum.

quicky game-list
http://game.dom3minions.com/bin/waiting_chk.cgi
can be used for a quick view of what games on my server are open or looking for more players.

BLITZ's:
Standard game for 2 to 4 human players on a 50 province (medium sized) map.
http://game.dom3minions.com/bin/blitz_chk.cgi

vsAI:
A game of players against computer players. For 1 to 4 human players against 3 computer players who are allied against you. This is played on an 80 province (small map) map.

SRAND:
This is also a game of players against computer players. For 1 to 4 human players against 3 computer players who are allied against you. This is also played on an 80 province (small map) map but it has been processed thru the SemiRandom program to place surprise provinces into the game.

CHAOS:
This is a game best played by people who feel they have the game all figured out, and they would like some surprises. It is for 1 to 4 human players, 3 allied computer played nations, and 2 more active "Special Monster" nations. It is played on a randomly generated 80 province (medium sized) map with surprises everywhere. Play carefully.

CBM:
This is a game for those who prefer to play with the Conceptual Balance mod which can be particularly good for blitzed duels. The present version of the CBM mod also includes with it the Worthy Heroes mod. These games are for 2 to 4 human players on a 50 province (medium sized) map. Remember that all players must have the CBM mod installed, and should have used it for creating their god, in order to play these games.

Other games can be hosted here upon request. Please check the "Hosting Games" link on the main page of www.Dom3Minions.com Games can be as small as two players (in case you just want an impartial non-playing person to host it) or can be as large as 94 Players and AIs on 1500 province maps. Any mod can be used, even one you create. It can be direct connect or play-by-mail or text-message turn alerts, even in the same game with each player choosing as they wish.
