Another Newbie Slugfest - Restarted

The Panther · #1 February 25th, 2005, 01:10 PM

With my other games wrapping up now, I seem to have a bit more time on my hands. I am down to one HUGE game on a MASSIVE map which will last another year or so, a second game in which I am quickly losing in a 4 against 1 (I will soon be going AI after all my armies and mages die), and a third small game (Song of the Blade) which just started.

If the newest Slugfest game is going to take place on a smallish map (like Inland?) with a decent victory condition setting (meaning NOT TA), then I would like to join as T'ien Ch'i. I have really been wanting to check out the race which is supposedly the worst MP nation in the game.

I always did like a challenge...

2. Ulm = Beorne
3. Mictlan = Aku
4. Pythium = Boron
5. Machaka = Pashadawg
6. Marignon = Steerpike
7. Man = Warhawk
8. ????? = Deccan
9. Vanhiem = Curious Cat
10. C'Tis = Oversway
11. T'ien Chi = Dah Panthah

I would suggest banning caelum from this game .

If still possible i would like to change my nation into Pangenea

Just curious, was there a consensus about rules for the game? I assume we'll use the most recent pretender mod, but what about other mods, etc. There was a bit of discussion a while back, but I didn't get a sense of agreement on all of the other details.

My vote is for Zens pretender, scales, and spell balance mods, whatever the latest versions are at the start of the game.

Anybody know when Deccan is expected back? And, he might be distracted by other games. I will try to email him.

Just got Pasha's e-mail. Sorry, I didn't know that you were waiting on me. Please don't bother waiting as I won't be able to play any Dom2 for at least another couple of weeks.

One observation though: I thought you guys wanted to avoid another epic game. It looks to me like 11 players is already epic-sized...

Personally, when I get back into Dom2, I'd prefer something smaller, like 7-8 players max.
