Is it specifically for goon games or something or is it intended to be like an open thing? I've been looking into running some games with friends but I haven't yet looked very deeply on how to actually do it.

It's supposed to be an open thing after it stops requiring handholding for stuff people want to do (disciple games, removing pretender uploads from guys that change their minds etc) edit: so yes, you can use it to host your friends' games, but it's not perfect.

Why are people who aren't newbies joining the newbies game? If someone is rushing Bot they aren't a newbie. What happened to this community.

Hello Dom4 thread, I’m getting into this game after playing a lot of Dom3 years ago, and had a few questions centering around MA Eriu. I was thinking of doing some form of N9 bless off of Irminsul and leaning into some of these amazing-looking nature and air globals, but their Daoine Sidhe sacreds seem… Pricey. On the other hand, glamour, and sidhe lords / tuatha look impressive. In general, what does standard play with Eriu look like, and how do they get off the ground?

Early expansion should be no problem with sacreds as good as Eriu has. Seriously, high-def glamour troops eat most indies for breakfast if you combine them with some cheap arrow-catchers.

With a good water bless Sidhe Lords can take out huge forces on their own. I had lots of success by going water / air / earth on my pretender. Water as major bless, just enough air to forge boosters and a minor earth bless so they get less tired. The early game I just recruited Sidhe Lords and formed little raiding parties out of 2-3 of them. Most indies just surrendered rather than facing them. Well, their ghosts did since the Sidhe Lords had already slaughtered them all.

Their sacreds suck imo for cost and eriu's best thing/gimmick is song which enables the lightning thing.

Reading guide: - The Capital column is the terrain type in your capital province. - The Nearby Type column is a type of terrain that often spawns near your capitol (1-2 steps away). Usually this means at least one province, but possibly more. - the Nearby Water column only matters for water type stuff, but basically allows combining coast with a terrain type. EA Berytos, for example, starts in a normal plains province (Type.Default in the first column), has Wastelands nearby (Type.Desert in the second column) and their cap is on the coast (Type.Coast in the third column). Info propagates to the right, so EA Ulm (for example) both starts in a forest and has forests nearby. If a nation is totally blank (like EA Arco) then it's totally default balanced terrain. code:e5: ALL AGES. Now tell me what's bad and wrong so I can fix it.

Crosspost from PGS, here is a mod that stops UW factions casting BoT at all. click the picture for this mod, that works for 4.29 (the current version).

My BoT pet peeve are people who refuse to attack the caster because they have a NAP. Casting BoT IS an attack, the NAP is already broken, c'mon son.

Map generator interface now under construction. So far, now showing province flags, throne provinces, and start location provinces (though they all spawn as unknown nations with totally random start types atm, haven't integrated the nation database yet):

Anybody who is able to contribute against whoever cast BoT but doesn't is helping whoever cast it and must be punished. Really that spell just comes way too early in the game. I don't think I'd play in a mutiplayer game without it being modded out. It's just so stupid.

I'm actually amazed where I am research-wise on that graph, because I hosed up getting my labs up quickly initially, and have also been diverting huge chunks of my mages for other purposes. I'm also incredibly amused about those Pan flags in the upper left. Pan, you really shouldn't try expanding any more through that cross-ocean chokepoint. jBrereton posted:Look at all those fukken plains lol (in extremely salty fomoria that started next to 2 wastes, a mediocre plain and a plain over a river containing a throne voice) Serves you right for what you tried to do recently.  Also for claiming you were going to deal with R'yleh, then left all the work to Pelagia.

I think I need to get into some blitz games using my mapgen, if folks are up for that at some point. I haven't played a blitz game in forever, but I could use a faster turnaround time on mapgen balance than 1-3 months.
