So all I need to do is connect through the game and pick my country, right? There didn't seem to be much else involved...

shovah · #72 January 30th, 2006, 04:16 PM

yup, thats all you gota do (until it starts)

archaeolept · #73 January 30th, 2006, 04:22 PM

a further note, tom - if you decide to change your pretender before the game starts, all you have to do is reconnect and chose the nation again - and pls don't accidentally chose anyone else's nation ;p

Fine. Num, the God of Jotunheim, is awaiting incarnation.

kissblade, just stay on the lookout for the next one

Now, 15 nations on inland is crowded - you guys are gonna be having fun right from the start

no victory conditions ironhawk?

Indeed, kissblade. Since we overflowed by 2-3 players on this game it would seem to indicate that another is needed. Perhaps when the first round of players die in the initial wars I will start another noob game. So all those players can get back in the action and everyone else who is waiting can get a chance.

Inland with 15 will indeed be crowded. Unfortunately there is nothing to be done for it - its the biggest map out of the box. Stay on your toes, everyone, its going to be bumpy from like turn 10 on!

And no, no special victory conditions. Victory by agreement, I suppose. Either be the last pretender standing or beat the hell out of everyone/make them all so afraid of you that no one contests when you claim victory.

i will contest any-one claiming victory right down to the last militia! (or if i die quickly in my sleep...)

archaeolept · #77 January 30th, 2006, 05:37 PM

biggest one out of the box is Orania actually - its large enough for all 17 - but setting up beginners on it w/out a reasonale victory condition would likely lead to something horrible happening

Mictlan, eh... cool. The blood will flow.

I will have it known that I, Num, God of Jotunheim and Lord of the Big People, am a kind and merciful deity and will not hold a few moments of spirited independence against any near-divinity wishing to join my pantheon in a subordinate role once my obvious superiority has been established.

Suffering in eternal torment is so last incarnation. I plan to offer generous pensions and a quiet retirement to an out-of-the-way paradise dimension.

Well if C'tis opens up, let me know. =) I'll keep a look out for other newbie games or such. Also, what's the IRC channel, everyone goes to since I can use a few tips before I play.
