Arco?!  Yay, somebody is using my old nation!  PM me if you want to discuss strategy!

I claim 25% of the credit for Burnt Pies's inevitable victory.

[Caz]

God damnit I'm only descent at playing Abysia.

[Il Palazzo]

Feeling a little claustrophobic already, huh Il P? =)

With you on board? Certainly.

[E. Albright]

I can't commit to joining this, but I'll tentatively indicate interest. My copy of D3 is currently about 4000 km away from me, but in theory it's going to be shipped in the not-too-distant future. In theory. If I get my copy in a timely manner, I'd probably have the time needed to join a game...

[e] To clarify, for unrelated yet serendipitous reasons I finally got around to requesting  this morning that the HD my copy skulks on be shipped to me. I can't imagine I'll see it before the first given seasonal postal congestion though...

[Il Palazzo]

I'm all for waiting till after the first of January, if it gets you to play. This game wasn't even supposed to start much earlier anyway.

[Ignus]

If you're still looking for players I can commit to a second game after Christmas. I'll even be something festive, in the form of the lovable Pangaea.

[Il Palazzo]

I guess we'll just wait for E.Albright, and we could start. That is, it's going to begin after New Year.

The other game( http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=65222.msg1813549#new ) has got a couple spots vacant: Mictlan & C'tis.
If any one of you wants to take up the challenge(neither of these nations are really well developed, but they're not in dire straits either, I think), feel free to let me know.

[E. Albright]

So, um, if there's to be seven of us, what map? Still the homogenized 6-player one, or something larger? (Grr, and I suppose this means I need to try to decide on a nation. Decisions, decisions...)

[Il Palazzo]

How about invading Middle Earth? This will lend itself nicely to hilarious storytelling.

113 land, 6 sea provinces.

Unless you'd like to play as an underwater nation, then we'll need some more wet space to accommodate you, I guess.

[Ignus]

I'm happy with the map. I've played on it before, it's good looking and has a good province layout with lots of choke points and other fun stuff. Plus I like the idea of Pangaea invading Mordor and teaching them how to party.

[Il Palazzo]

Some more feedback on the map, please?
Counterpropositions are welcome too.

[Burnt Pies]

Looks good to me.

[E. Albright]

Still waiting on my copy to get here. The map looks acceptable. Waffling on nation choice, but leaning towards Marverni. Much as I'd love to play a CBM'd Atlantis, or try something very much out of my comfort zone like Hinnom, I don't think either would be a good idea. But yes, still waffling. Might not decide until I've had a day or two to poke around and re-acquaint myself. It will have been almost a year since I'll have played...

[Il Palazzo]

Well, then. I'm going to put the game on the server, even though I still don't know if the Middle Earth map is o.k. with everybody or not.
Should some objections arise, then we can always change it to something different. In the meantime, whomever's ready, can upload their pretenders.

I took the liberty of changing the stettings to the following:
Victory conditions: 6 out of 9 VPs.
Special site frequency: 60 - because those are always fun.
Hall of fame entries: 15 - for more heroic heroes etc.

If you guys want something different, let me know, and we can change it.

Era is Early, using CBM 1.6.

You need to download mod and map files before you can play(and before you start designing your pretender). Links on the game page:
http://www.llamaserver.net/gameinfo.cgi?game=Bay12GamesRoundSix
and in the opening post.

As a reminder, you need to create a pretender, and send the file(to be found in your /dominions3/savedgames/newlords; named <your_nation_era_number.2h>, where number is most likely "0" if it's the only pretender you've created so far for this nation.) to "pretenders [at ] llamaserver [dot ] net" with the game name as the subject.
Game name is "Bay12GamesRoundSix".

[slMagnvox]

My silence on the subject was meant to be interpreted as approval. Hah. Middle Earth should be fun; So long as it is a map and has provinces, I'll try my damnedest to conquer them. Will send in a pretender post haste. Or tomorrow. Tomorrow haste.

Roll call everybody.
