Last DOM-I PBEM party

[Catquiet]

Does the luck scale affect the void gate? Better monsters or less chance of insanity?

You can already find a small Void Gate guide here, at the guides section.

You can send mages into the Void Gate to summon random beings from the Void. There is a good variety of things that can be summoned, some of which are very useful and powerful, but sometimes the summoned creatures attack and kill the mage who summoned them. Also, there is a chance that the mage's mind will be fried. If that happens, he can't cast spells, so he becomes of little use except for cannon fodder. I recommend sending Star Children into the Void Gate, because if their minds are fried, you can still use them as scouts.

Ah this sounds good! Just a question: The AI knows how to use these spells?

Actually this is a good question. If R'lyeh will be an AI player, it will use these gates to summon creatures from it? This has been tested with the AI?

The AI can use the Vois gate properly.

Thats the kind of infos which asked several heavy testbeds in doms I!

when we are at that, would you care to confirm hard to test 'subbtle' mechanisms?:

how is determined that a weapon is only used once. You talked about the lance of the knights. => is the lance the sole weapon with this restriction?

chance of affliction: is it 10% each time you got it, or is it a % based on the damage received? Is it a flat 25% when you are cursed?

Seems I was wrong. 5% starspawns, 2% stargazer.

Based on damage recieved (chance = damage in percent of HP), unless you are cursed. Curse adds 25% to this chance.

As far as I know it's only the lance.

That's a little disappointing - less than half of the nations available. Oh well, I can understand not wanting to give too much away in the demo.

So I would play Ulm, or failing that Arco. But I fear they might both be taken. Maybe we'll have to form 2 games.

Here's what people have said they want so far:

Atul - C'Tis
Catquiet - Jotunheim
Nerfix - Machaka
Saber - Pythium, or failing that Ulm
Gandalf - Jotunheim

PDF claimed Arco before for the Dom I PbEM
izaqyos claimed Pythium for the same
others claimed other races, but not ones that conflict with the above.

Note that both catquiet and Gandalf spoke up for Jotunheim. You guys will have to fight it out.
