Default GhostBat - MA game for new players (starting)

Since FruitBat and VampireBat filled up insanely fast, I'm creating yet another overflow game for new/newish players. I'd recommend players who've played 0-2 games previously - if you've played more than that and would like to play regardless, post here and you can play if we're short of players. This should be a nice, fun and friendly game, a reasonable size but not too huge, and generally ideal for new players (that's the plan, at least).

This will be an MA game and will use the Worthy Heroes mod. Renaming will be on, graphs will be on, and everything else will be standard.

The map will be my modified version of Parganos, which is modified (a) to have a much more fair and even spread of terrain types, (b) to have fair-ish start positions, and (c) to have no gold or magic sites in the seas - so this will be a land-nation only game.

Please sign up and choose a nation!

So far we have:

Marignon - OoohSnap
T'ien Ch'i - Donny
Agartha - Cipher
Bandar Log - Zogger
Pythium - nozshand
Abysia - Real_friend
Eriu - Starshine_Monarch
Ulm - TREAD_HEAD

Heyyo llamabeast. Starshine's back and ready for action. Seeing as unforeseen circumstances had me drop out of several games early, I think the only real MP experience I've gotten was your game "Jaguar". You think you can include a download of the map you mentioned too?

So middle age, huh? Well, I was going to call Rl'yeh, but seeing as you've limited it to only land nations (Likely a good move for newbies), I'll pick something else. I did Bandar Log last time, so I don't feel like playing them again. I think I'll let a few others pick first before I decide on one.

One more thing: I told my father about the game and he seems like he's interested in playing as well. Problem is we used the same game disc to install it on each of our computers, so we have the same product code. He thinks that the game might not let us play together because of that. I was wondering if this was true or not.

So here is the MA bat game. GhostBat sounds cool.

I'll take T'ien Ch'i for the first several games. Probably will try other nations after that.

Wish good luck to everyone, and many thanks to llamabeast.

Hi everyone. I'm Starshine Monarch's father. I'm the one who introduced him to the game and taught him everything he knows, which is why he now beats me on a regular basis. I have no experience playing D3 against opponents other than my two sons and have never played online. I have gotten the impression that two players playing the same copy of the game cannot play and even though we have it installed on several different computers in the house, it is still from the same activation code. If this means the two of us can't get into the same game together, so be it. I'm more than willing to step aside to let him get in another game.

If this is going to work I'll take Marignon. If not, then it doesn't and I'll get into a different newbie game.

Hi LordCalvert! Indeed you can't play in the same game as Starshine. I've just started up a LA newbie game as well - I'll see if anyone in that one would like to swap into this game, in which case you can take their place.

I was pretty sure that was true but I thought I should at least confirm it. Thanks for the help.
