do we some global RPG-Theme again?

[tompliss]

You're welcome to, but as you've seen in the last round, I don't do that much ... Mainly because I post from work so it's not the best place to think about what I write ...

[lijacote]

I'm cool with roleplaying. If others don't want to, that's fine, but I for one like writing some (short and shitty ) texts every now and then. The more the merrier with this!

[Shadowlord]

It was in your post, I assume tompliss just missed it.

[HopFlash]

no more votes for game settings?

[Shadowlord]

I think I'd prefer the random event frequency to be what it normally is, rather than common. It seems plenty often to me.

Random events are common by default in MP, it's what you had in 4.03 as well.

[Shadowlord]

Ah, alright.

Guys, question :

Would you like to play on a "Cradle of Dominion" map, podified so the Port provinces let you recruit Sailing commanders (and maybe have less Port provinces) ?
I may even add some rapping, but that would take more time.


PS: if someone has experience in mapping, I wouldn't mind some help for the wrapping part.

[lijacote]

I'm good with it. More water provinces so two water nations can actually expand a moment before going at each other like rabid dogs It's a pretty map, and last I played it it felt functional, even though it tends to suffer from movement being slow (like most older maps that are ported over to Dom4). I don't know if it can be made to wrap, but I'm fine with non-wrap (even though it leads to some issues).

[tompliss]

About it being made to wrap, I think I could make the links on my own in an little hour (including learning how to do it prolperly).
the problem is that graphically, it would need much more. Especially because the province types on the different borders are totally different (forest and mountains facing the sea).

[HopFlash]

what is so bad about not wraping?

[tompliss]

Some people don't like being in a corner of the map.

In Cradle, it's not that important, as the provinces are bigger in the corners (and a bit at the borders, too), so that they have more links with each-other, to compensate their lack of neighbours in a direction.

[HopFlash]

ah...I don't think that this small differences will make a real difference.

For me we can go for the standard version of this map. It looks big enough and nice enough...I don't need a completly balanced map if you ask me. There are so much different factors than the map. But this is just me so if someone need modifications then its ok too I think.

[LongDongSilver]

Oh, I didn't even realize there was another water nation. I think It would be a good idea if I switch to a land nation then. I don't know if having two water nations would work well in a multiplayer game, it feels like that would mess up the games dynamics a bit.
