Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)

The Overlord rules about cap sieging are just incredibly bad. This game was an experiment, and the experiment has been done, and found lacking. It's probably about time to end it now, and try again with some modified rules. Any winner of this game could not be proud of their win.

Making a completely new game (and map) will definitely take a lot of work. It could be several weeks before a new game started. If everyone agrees that the overlord capitol attacking restrictions are too stupid to be playable (and I agree that it is), you could always play assuming that rule doesn't exist for the rest of the game. The main reason it was implemented anyway was to prevent overlords from killing normals off really quickly at the start of the game. I'm pretty sure that's been accomplished at this point.

If you all would rather just play a new game and try to get the rules right this time, we can end the game and start working on a new map and the revisions now.

By the way, is there anyone reading this that could make a map? I don't have any mapmaking programs right now (unless you count rpgmaker 2000), which would make it difficult for me to come up with a map that would meet the demands that seem to be needed. I can handle all the map commands, I just can't create a usable image. Maybe I should post this in the maps&mods section.
