Hey,

based on the infamous scenario....

slots open, and some reserved for soul's own inviteees.

blaze is one
soul, well we are a natural choice?

That we are
Downloaded & reading the tread. That is a must for
this one.

Which are game will you use? Rood or RoodMP?
Rood has 10 Playable. Of course only 8 for MP play.
RoodMP has only 4 playable tribes.

[kelzad]

How many players are you considering for this game?

 

[Knutis]

this looks great!
let me in! let me in!

 

[Frasco]

Why not...

 

[kelzad]

Well, I reserve a ticket for this game.

 

[soul_warrior]

i havent considered which version quite yet.

i will see what happens in the next few days.

meanwhile, Tar-Mithanga and Knutis =
kelzad, if it is possible to have 5 players, youre in.

as im tight with time, ill only start this around friday.
use this time to pick a tribe you like, and practice this game.
it is necessary.

roster full---------

If it's possible to use Rood (rather than RoodMP) for a game like this, I would recommend that as it would probably be better.

If you let me have any feedback on the scenario from this game, that would be great. I haven't been able to test it as a MP scenario, so any ideas you have for improving it would be much appreciated. Have fun!

 

[soul_warrior]

we will let you know what happens, plotinus.
i do intend to use the regular rood.biq file as the basis...
i will know more later today, and will post my findings.

 

[soul_warrior]

i keep having trouble with DLing.
it appears the version i had on my pc is dead.
ill try and fix this today.
hopefully i can report the settings, etc in 24 hours.

meanwhile, have a go, and post a list of your preferred civs?

 

[Knutis]

I'll be King Knutis of the Random

 

[soul_warrior]

plotinus, i keep getting a file not found error when i try an dget the bigfile from AtomicGamer.
do you know anything about it?

anyone managed to download it?
its the link from plotinus's thread...

 

[Blaze Injun]

Hey,

I downloaded it from the links you posted Soul.
Seems to run fine for me.

If we play the Non-MP beware the Viking Raids
& the Celtic Culture.

Rood will work I believe for MP. I looked it over.
I'll take a random.

[Frasco]

I'll be fine with any one.

 

[soul_warrior]

still unable to download this.
i hope its solvable, as plotinus said hed try and sort this out soon.

i pronounce this on hold atleast till sunday.
i will try and get a working game out of this and will advise what happens then....

this is not abandoned.
just frozen.

 

[Plotinus]

The issue is now resolved and you should be able to download without any problems. Have fun!

One idea: as I said, playing on the standard Rood rather than RoodMP would probably be better, if it's possible, but I suggest you turn off the Culture Victory condition. Having the possibility of the Irish getting a culture victory if you don't stop them is part of the fun of the single player game but it might prove a distraction in MP. Up to you though!

 

[soul_warrior]

thanks plotinus for sorting this out.

i will remove the culture victory (unless the team objects?)

downloading now, but will check only after work....
expect some news in about 12 hours...

 

[Frasco]

No objection here...

 

[Blaze Injun]

Hey,

No culture win for the Irish would make it
more fun. Blood for the Pagan Gods!!!


Blaze Injun

 

[soul_warrior]

ok, we have a majority for no culture win.
when i get home ill start this (if the download works... ray: )

random civs all around,
and may I win
