MP Game - Artifact Game - running 48hr qh

[Rathar]

Well, as I am almost assuredly going to die and fast lets go for something I haven't played before so it's even faster!

Vanheim please and thanks for making this.

Now I just need to figure out how to use mods, heh

[shovah]

If your dominions got installed in "C:\program files\dominions2" then there should be a "C:\program files\dominions2\mods" subfolder. If it went into "D:\games\dominions2", it would be "D:\games\dominions2\mods".

If there doesn't seem to be a "mods" subdirectory there, try making one and putting the mods in it.

cainehill told me that. same for maps but instead of /mods its /maps. and good luck (early battles will be easy for you with the pelt)

if your going just for artifacts then go for: vanheim (fenris pelt) or pangea (if medusa counts as human)

Medusa is humanoid, but certainly not human. When was the last time you met a human with living snakes for hair and a petrifying gaze?

Just to be clear with everyone tho, house rule #1 is referring to the pretenders which generally show up at the end of the list. Living, human pretenders like: The Archmage, The Master Druid, The Rime Mariner, The Crone, etc, etc. If you are trying to select a pretender and are unsure as to whether it is "human" or not, please do not hesitate to ask.

P.S.
And yes, I think we can count the Freak Lord as a mounted human lol

[Rathar]

Thanks for the advice, got all those folders etc ready to go, just waiting for which exact version of mod and which map etc

Oh and I met a medusa on halloween. Fake snakes but her beauty at least paralyzed me! heh heh

[shovah]

[Morkilus]

I guess undead humans don't count...?

If we play with 15+ players we could play the world map since i never played on it, just on faerun. Iirc the world map is "only" something like 250 provinces, that should be tolerable

also I notice that shahrivar is unselectable if an underwater nation is chosen

Shahrivar has a large lake which would be suitable for a single underwater nation. If someone else chooses Atlantis then we will have to change to a different map. But otherwise we can stick with what we've got. I'll be editing the mapfile anyway so if it currently doesnt allow underwater nations I will just make it so that it does.

yeah thats what i'm saying - you'll have to add a starting point for rlyeh

[archaeolept]

I have a copy of shaharivar revised, which I could send to you as a beginning Ironhawk... if you play shah, the .map needs a bit of a cleaning

world map

also, 70% of a map the size of shaharivar or bigger is a bit much. It would clearly be decided far before then, so what's the point? 50+1 maybe...

any plans for hosting schedule?
