I am brand new, (n00b) to this game. Just got the title yesterday and spent 5 hours playing it straight. Anyway, if there are any slots open, I would like to play.

Great! But just tell us which nation you would like to play (as mentioned above Caelum, Mictlan, Pangaea and Abysia are already taken). We're closing in our 8 players pretty quickly, so I'm hoping we can all upload our pretenders and start the game by tomorrow. I'd suggest you use whatever time you have to try out a Pretender setup for the nation you're trying out.

In the opening in game it's mostly about taking the independent provinces (or indies), as quickly as possible, and that's one thing you can practice in SP that carries over perfectly well to MP. You should probably try a game using the same setup we're going to use in the game, as describe in my initial post, and most importantly use the same indy strength (8). IMO, you get the most bang for the buck by testing a given pretender setup for the first 10-15 turns.
