LongBrodie, there has been a bug in the newest patch regarding old mods. Check the mods forum for a CBM update.

I'll play LA Atlantis. (after Maerlande kicked me dead with them, I'm interested to see how they work). And LA Atlantis with LA Jomon in the game will give LA R'lyeh some headaches. (Both Atlantis and Jomon want at least one underwater castle + fort for diversity).

So if you want me great. If you don't also good. Saves me the time
Well you seem quite strong lol. I think i ll start the game saturday morning, if there is no other noobie who want to join by that time i let you in (unless some noobies already in don t want to). I will think about a potential handicap four you and Ossa.

I downloaded the fixed version but forgot to put it in my mods folder since I've mostly been playing vanilla...

Thanks for reminding me! <3

This game is going to be short, tense, and bloody with such a small map and 10 players competing for space. Some of us will start right on top of each other.

Well the best way to prevent people from winning in a strong position is diplomacy. Band together, share information, and take the stronger player out. But that can be hard to organize. (But if you don't do that, the stronger player wins. Like I did in FirstSteps (That and finding a 20% conj site as a major conj nation)).

Since we can learn more from experienced players i think it could be interesting to add you also. But to do a fair balanced game i ll propose some handicaps for you two (with Ossa).
To do that i'll do a poll with some proposition.

It sounds fair but also funny

About the map Longbrodie is maybe right especially if we have 2 water nations, but it can be fun that way too. If you have any suggestion i m listening (size 150 max)

LA only has one water nation (R'lyeh, with the killer dominion), but a few that can also enter the water and build PD. Atlantis and Jomon.

I'll jump in if there is a spot left. Definitely a noob.

Put me down for Midgard if so.

Thanks!
