Oh and you can create allied teams among the computer players. I do it in my Chaos games.

I was also considering it for a scenario game. "The One God has arrisen and already has a One Enemy. We are trapped between them. Heathens and Pagans and Idols unite. Throw out your old personal gripes and form a single mission. To survive." which was going to use two of Anos modded nations. One built around angels had the top of the map and one that is built around devils had the bottom. Those were "aimed" at each other using no-neighbor provinces owned in the other AIs territory so their first goal would be to reach each other. The players were all randomly placed in the middle between the two opposing forces.

Oh and NT Jedi is a great choice for doing your AI setup. Especially if you are using LLamaServer since the AIs will have to be human started then turned AI. You lose and gain some options that way. You cant choose aggressive, defensive, standard as AI settings and you Im not sure if you can exceed human pretender build limitations. But you can do a god that is dormant or imprisoned.

Bummer, because thats a key factor of the SemiRand program, AI's with pretenders decked out in gear, wielding boosted magic levels and with happy scales.

I must investigate this.

LLamaServer's menu just cant take in every possible thing about the game. If you are a creative person who tends to exceed menu'd lists then for some things you will probably always have to go to a server where you can choose absolutely anything.

The game is kindof "broken" as far as whether or not to use map-command gods or directly chosen gods. If it was working "right" it would only allow one or the other. Especially for downloadable scenarios. If there is a map-built god, then it should not allow someone to join as that nation. And if they do join and create a god then it should ignore all of the map commands.

But if Ermor has a map-command god, and someone joins as Ermor and sends in a god, what you end up with is alittle bit of both. I havent played with that much. Like I said I considered it broken. But if I remember right your uploaded god is used for the selection of the chasis and magic. The map commands for the scales. That might let you exceed build-limits. I dont know if it fails cheat check, and I dont know. about equip. But if I remember, it still wont do quite what you want.
