Im pretty noobish here, playing one MP game which I am losing.

[RexMundi]

Cool, people! so i'm thinking later today i'll gen some maps and post images here for people to vote on?

[Elfeater]

Sure! Is it possible not to have round about maps though? Or make some round about and some flat?

[RexMundi]

the generator i use lets me fiddle with a lot, north south wrap, east west wrap, are both options. THe biggest thing is, well, hm..

That's the generator, so call out some setting you wanna try seeing a map for and i'll test them.

[Elfeater]

I personally don't like a lot of sea provinces, but that's just me.

[RexMundi]

sea i'd say depends if someone wants them for their nation, if nobody is a underwater, let's just lower them a bunch imo

[USEC_OFFICER]

I'd say that before you guys generate a map, you should pick your nations first. Because the Zotzs and Agatharians want caves, Himmon and Bertyos want wastes, and so on and so on. So it'd be best to pick your nations first, and then tweak the map generation settings dependent on what nations were picked.

Also, posting to watch. I'm 95% certain that I'm no longer a beginner, but if you need warm bodies I'm here. Only if you really want more people though.

[Elfeater]

If it is EA ill take Nieflheim

[RexMundi]

good call on the nations first. so, i'll add a poll for era, early or middle

[Delta Foxtrot]

Nation picks and player number both. Good map for four is different than a good map for eight. In addition to the nation specifics USEC_OFFICER mentioned.
You want roughly 15 (ingame random gen makes maps at 10/player, 15/player and 20/player) provinces per player, though it can vary based on what kind of game you want.

[Hatman]

If we are picking nations, I would like to play T'ien Chi. If somebody else wants TC I can try Arcoscephale.

[EnigmaticHat]

If it is EA ill take Nieflheim

Screw you.  Guess who only knows how to play one faction

Well, I guess I'll try something new: Sauromatia.

[Hellheart]

Okay, going to be EA based on the polls.

I'll take either Caelum or Agartha. I'll have to do some run-throughs with each to make that decision.

[AlStar]

I'll give Marvenrni a try - never played as them before.

[RexMundi]

OK, so. Seems early. I'll update the op later with nations.
