Default Re: New 3day Host Game on Mosehansen - Cradle of M

hm i am tempted too .
but research very difficult frightens me off since i thought of giving SG ermor a try .
because i am in too many games already the 3 days quickhost would be ideal though .

so is research very difficult fixed or is there a chance to turn it into normal research ?
with normal research and archeo not taking BE ermor i would be in as SG ermor

since i have thaumatic experience with a lab/temple/popblow event on turn 2-3 i can't think of playing anything else than ermor atm lol


no matter what scales i take i seem to attract the hurting events in the first turns at an unbelieveable high rate

Since you don't _LIKE_ the heavy magics and summonings, Boron, why wouldn't you like VD research? It makes your national troops more important.

w/ these settings and this map i'd actually suggest not allowing the undead nations...

The VD research will quite slow down the development of counters to massed undead, while not hurting ermor much at all.

another reason I was thinking of taking Broken Empire.

I would actually like to see someone play Broken Empire just since I have never played against them, Arch =)

Except, one major benifit of playing Borken Empire would be the surprise factor of it.

When someone shows up to your door with 20 priest... and you just smile at them.

yo, put me down for Pangaea, if it's available.

I would also be in favour of a faster start if possible. quickhost is probably a good idea.

I am in as T'ien Chi. But please don't speed up the game. Quick host is fine. But on large maps only slow games work for me.

Heh. Or paraphrasing ancient Ceaser's saying(Veni, Vidi, Vici): "I came, I saw, I appologized."
