DangerPudding - random nations EA game (finished)

[lch]

So when do you think you can have it ready? I still haven't received anything.

Nikolai, if you don't send me a pretender within 48 hours I fear I'll have to remove you from the game to get started.

Just to add more fun to the delay, I'm moving house just now, so I may not have the Internet for a while. I'll let you know (via work or an Internet cafe) if I'm still available, otherwise just start without me, this game has been held up for too long anyway.

Since email is a problem I have received the pretender data via PM now. I will start the game shortly. If your moving doesn't take longer than maybe half a week to a week I can play your first couple of turns for you.

Okay, let's give you an update: Two players had their password wrong that they sent me. Using my black magic, I found out what the real passwords are - I learned that I should really check those things first. LoloMo said that he'll sub for SandMan while he's moving. And I found this nice new adventure map by Twan which says that it's for 10+2 players, exactly what we have here, and that it's very balanced (it is). But it has a lot of provinces, 337 of them, which means about 28 provinces per players. Quite a few of those are cave provinces (which should handicap all the nations in the same way, no Agartha here) and some have very strong defenders. Those have very nice preset sites, too, though. So I'd really like to see this adventure map in action, but I felt I'd ask if you're okay with playing on it or if you think that this map is too much for you. We don't necessarily have to do the suggested VP victory. Opinions?

Hi, I'll be subbing for Sandman.

Twan's map looks gorgeous, and the background story is pudding hehe. It's a bit big though at 28 provinces per player. It supposedly has some predetermined "monster" provinces, reminds me a bit of Heroes of Might and Magic. I would say, let's give it a try.

Hmm, I'm not sure if I want to play such a huge map in my first MP game. But I can try it if the other players want to play it.
