FFH2 Multiplayer Games - Invitation and Information

[Bad Player]

um so what happened in the survival game after I got slaughtered?

 

[Chandrasekhar]

Good avatars are so hard to come by. I'll stick with the madness one for now.

And I got killed by a swarm of Illian axemen that almost went for Yohan.

 

[Bad Player]

Anyone up for a game of survival?

 

[Mavy]

Hi

I'd like to join some games sometime.
My civ and Leader of choice would be Tebryn Arbandi of Sheaim.

I'm living in Germany, which should be the same timezone as sweden

Wouild you like to play survival game now? It takes about an hour or 2.

Would anyone like to create their MP leaders? You can pick 3 positive traits or 4 positive and Agnostic, in addition, you choose your civilization and leader name. Scorched Earth (and possibly Barbarian, we haven't really gone into this yet) may be chosen freely as a neutral trait. You can take a look at the 2nd post of this thread for leaders already created (well not coded, because I really don't feel like doing that anytime soon. If someone does, please send it to me and I will upload the XML to the second post, I will also be willing to modify any leader from then on).

EDIT: Forgot to mention that Adaptive can not be chosen, after all, you are chosing your traits to begin with.

 

[Silverkiss]

But adaptive lets you change during the game...

 

[Jono]

Yes, but you can decide before the game if you want to change, in addition, no one else actually knows what your adaptive trait is and it is actually coded to replace one of your existing traits.

 

[Silverkiss]

So you should be able to choose it... It adds strategy as your enemies won´t know what trait your going to use when...

 

[Jono]

Oh, yeah, Chand, you only have two of the three traits allowed, because you were the only one to not take Scorched Earth when it was actually considered negative.

 

[Draconian]

My custom leader would be:

Astaroth of the Sheaim
Financial, Philosophical(?), Raider and Scorched Earth just for the flavour.
Allignment: Evil (but rather Good in his own eyes, after all it's only about definition and perception )

 

[Jono]

I believe all evil see their cause as good in their own eyes in FfH. I'll add him now.

 

[Jono]

Looks like we won't be seeing any Good leaders anytime soon.

 

[Silverkiss]

My custom leader would be:

Julius Bloodmoon of the Calabim
Spiritual, Expansive, Cultural
Evil

 

[Jono]

How are we going to play with 3 players playing as Calabim? Oh well, we'll figure it all out at some point.

 

[Jono]

Custom Leaders
Each player gets to choose the traits for their leader. You can choose either 2 traits, or 4 traits where one is a negative trait (Scorched Earth or Agnostic). Refer to post #2 for examples.

Gwen, you should update this.

 

[Jono]

I'm going to go all the way and add Agnostic and Aggressive.

 

[Jono]

I did this mostly because I found that I never actually found a religion, but I'm not going to lie, it was partially because I didn't feel unique anymore (what with not being the only leader with Scorched Earth).

 

[Draconian]

I believe all evil see their cause as good in their own eyes in FfH. I'll add him now.

Ha, those other "evil" leaders don't care about other people at all. Astaroth is actually trying to save them all (well, sort of...). You know, the world is dark and full of strife, everybody is just suffering and the one true god has abandonned creation long ago. But somehow most people are to blind to see or just to weak to save themself.
Astaroth is going to bring armaggedon over the world to release everyone from their pain and misery once and for all. Therefore he and his followers have chosen a live of self-sacrifice. Instead of simply ending their own meaningless existence they live on to redeem the whole world (yeah, really noble). So every city they conquer on their unending crusade is put to the torch (Scorched Earth!) and all townsfolk is gently put out of it's misery at once.
Thus according to Astaroth the Bannor/the Order are the most evil people around.

This nicely explains my choice of civ and traits. Should probably have chosen Agnostic, but adopting the Veil should work as well.

Hey, Gwen, as for that game (Grigori+Khazad+Hippus - 3AI) — which we will continue, but only during the day here, yes this means you will have to suffer a bit — could you send me a scout Adventurer? I'll upgrade him to a raider and make him the Core (with promotions like Subdue Animal and Guerilla II if we get runes).
