So what map are we playing on? Do you already have one in mind?

Not yet. Was going to take the final number of players, multiply it by some integer no greater than 15, and look for a map with those parameters.

Do people have preferences? Also, how many provinces do people want per player? I'm thinking maybe 12 will make for a pretty well-paced game.

I was wondering if you were still taking new players. If not, thats totally fine.

I'm currently playing my first ever MP games. One is vanilla, mixed vets and noobs, the other is CBM mixed vets and noobs. I'm in the process of losing the second game before I really got anything going, so I was wondering if you wouldn't mind me joining and trying out Niefelheim.

Can you switch me from Tir Na N'og to Caelum please?

Thanks!

Aderion is already Caelum.
Van- and Hel- are still open though, if you desperately want a wintry nation.

Oh snap, forgot about picking a race.

I will take Agartha then, they seem almost unrecognisable.

This will be using the llamathingy pbem right?

Yep, it'll be llamaserver.

I tried Agartha briefly in SP, and while their troops still can't hit the broad side of the barn, they at least get a holy national to boost their troops' attack, at the risk of a battle fright affliction. It's up to you if you think it's worth it. Well, more like, it's really up to the AI.
