I messaged him to let him know and he said he would get it in today. So hopefully we will be starting very soon.

hi, i was wondering, what improv rules are we playing with? was told it convention not to copy bogus's crews orders, fire commanders, and attack commanders. also its not kosher to use phantasmal army and a kill all spell, for example wrathfull sky, or heat from hell. beyond this what else is not to be done?

Attacking Machaka before turn 50 is also against the rules .

i like that, well said its late i think we have at least one more day. by the way be afraid of ermor their damn preists have apostacy which hurts you more than me. your sacred spiders after they lose their riders has a mag resist of 8, ouch having them turn in battle can really hurt. i suggest mag resist spells

Thanks for the pointer. I am actually currently learning this in a game I am playing at the moment where I am fighting ermor. I switched from sacred spiders to normal spiders. Not as tough but at least I don't have to fight my own men.
Oh and by the way with no rider they have MR of 5, even more ouch. Although to be honest his nether darts backed up be skele spam is hurting a lot more.

Pretender sent, I guess we're about ready to get this one on the road!

Concerned about having to get 9 out of 15 capitals... yikes. Want to just go with 7 like we did with Ascendant?

Are we going with a random map or Glory of the Gods? Never played on that one... does it have smoothed out starting locations so everyone has 5 provinces next to their capitals or something?

I think I'd just prefer a random map with victory markers NOT SHOWN. It kinds of spoils the early game it seems when you know where all the capitals are and everyone starts rushing exactly toward everyone else. And a random map has an equal chance of screwing you as helping you, that's perfectly fair.

I've just sent in a slighty altered Pretender design if that's ok. If it's too late then no worries :-)
