New Gameoptions :

Challenge Awakening of the Dragons:

Later in the Game Dragons spawn randomly on the map.They are weaker than Acheron but can easily become a threat once they gain a few promotions.

Wild mana

Many Raw mana nodes are converted randomly to Mana nodes a few turns after the game startet
two new powerful mana Types (Creation and Force) which normally aren't available are placed on the map

Challenge- Deadly Wild Mana:

Same effects as Wild Mana Gameoption, also
Wild Mana Nodes have a Guardian with special abilities
The Guardian will sometimes spawn Minions to help him defend Mana node or to attack those that come close
The Guardian and his Minions have a special UNITAI to give them a unique behavior.
The Guardian can channel the magic energy of the node. For example a chaos node guardian sometimes mutates units close to his node while a Ice node guardian will slowly convert the terrain that surrounds the node to Ice/Snow/tundra.
The Guardian casts spells of his mana sphere
Faction system. For example Minions of a Ice Node won't attack Illians, Creatures from a Nature Node won't attack Elves, etc.
Upon Death Guardians will drop a Spellbook, the type of Spellbook depends on the mana node. The Spellbook gives the Unit that reads it a few spells/experience for free. Chance to learn spells depends on techs known.[/URL]


Gameoption more mana:

palace gives two more free mana (some palaces give Creation/Force mana)
more mana nodes are placed on the map, amount depends on map size

Civs startregion is altered to meet the flavor of the civ (forest for elves, hills for dwarves, etc.). Gameoption is from FlavourMod for FFH by Jean Elcard


Gameoption: Passive Training

Barracks and a few other Buildings can be constructed. They enable Units to automatically train and gain some experience before their first combat

What Sephi said. When you switch between mods that have different game options the civ engine doesn't change them so you new game in a different mod is looking for options that are not there. When you do a play now game it resets all options. Best thing to do is start a play now game the exit to the main menu if you want to choose your own option in custom games...
