Damn you snacktime! I am only computing a one in 237 chance of victory for myself, how do you rate so high?

Yeah my odds were wildly optimistic especially because I am quite sure I don't know all of the ways CBM 1.92 has changed vanilla so I look forward to planning a research path that leads to nowhere.

Speaking of which, is there any single document that explains the CBM changes vs. vanilla? As far as I can tell, every changelog for CBM is just listing changes from the previous CBM, but since I've been out of the loop for a while that doesn't help much especially since I find the hard-copy manual still pretty useful.

Then again maybe you would rather roll the Utgardian noob than provide info!

If you install EDM 1.21 separately and enable it (as opposed to the version that comes with CBM 1.92), it comes with a special testing feature. Start up a new game in the early age, and at the bottom of the nation selection list you'll find "Endgame Diversity Mod, testing nation". If you select this as your nation, you'll have access to every single summon available in EDM as recruitable commanders for 1g & 1 resource. This should allow you to see what they can do, at least, if not what they're actually capable of in battle. Hope this helps.

Let's try to have our pretenders submitted by Wednesday. Still waiting on Whollaborg, Bat/man, shard, and, well... me. Does this sound reasonable?

So if you don't have one, just join, the cost is minimal...its free.......
Didn't help, don't have an issue with any of the other maps on the dom3mods forum, except for the ones on that server... no idea why...

Just FYI, Whollaborg's is the last pretender we are waiting on to be uploaded. His last visit to the forum was 27 April.

Today is the 1st of may........

I hope I am wrong....but the maths doesn't add up to a quick start.

On an unrelated subject, we should probably have a paragraph in the OP on silent quitting too.

How about the one irfna used in noobswithblah:

If you want to quit mid-game for whatever reason, please allow me to find a sub! Just post and say you're done! Having someone stale out or spontaneously go AI really sucks! It's ok if you're losing and want to quit, just say so in this thread and let me find a sub!!!

Default Re: Smiting Season (newb-intermediate, LA, CBM 1.92) recruiting one more!

I've updated the original post with the new map, 30h turn duration, and clause about abandoning the game.

HoleyDooley, I was noticing Whollaborg's absence myself. If he shows up and wants to play, that's fine with me, but I've opened the game up for one more slot. If he doesn't show up or we don't get any interest in the next day, I'll start the game tomorrow and we'll just play with 11.

Oh, and thanks to everyone for your thoughts and contributions, as well as your patience. I'm looking forward to playing with you all.
