Think we switched back to a coop vs AI game on LordMortis's server.
Yep, you are the one become a god, we are your servants and benefitting from your blessings (literally your blessings you set up and your domain). All we get to choose is our faction, disciple's body and the schools of magic we want to invest in for our disciple. When we wake up is based on when you wake up (we wake up sooner than you if you don't start awake).LordMortis wrote: ↑Sun Dec 10, 2017 9:12 am I didn't realize my pretender affected all disciples. I hope that's not a problem. I just wanted the most scales and blessings I could reasonably pass to everyone else.
Recommendations for thrones?
Recommendations on the enemy? I think enough of us are new enough that I plan to make the AI at normal. 9 on 9? 9 on 18? 9 on 22? 9 on 9 on 9? Something else?
6 of us have joined, so there is still time to weigh in.
As for you scales/blessing, what you chose is fine. No particularly strong blessings, but several minor benefits and very strong scales. Good for newer players, easy benefits thought don't require extra thought to figure out how to really take advantage of them.
AI: if we are doing 2 AI teams, they will fight each other, might make them difficult instead of normal (just 1 up), or at least make some of them difficult (particularly their pretenders, not sure, but hoping that might cause them to make a more powerful blessing/scales, will help the disciples indirectly). Lot of new people, but lot of experienced players and we can help each other out (the AI will not help its teammates out so much). Also, some of the nations that be used are going to suck (Ermor, whatever the plant undead (Asphodol??) is) because of their unique format.
If we are fighting one large AI team, normal is good (we will have a LOT of enemies to fight!)
Think 9 vs 11 vs 11 (but I like epic games too
Thrones - at least enough to have 1 point for every player (more doesn't hurt). Set the victory points to be over 50%, but not more than 65-70% of total throne points. Want to require more than 1/2 to win, but think I read that not more than 2/3rds (66.666%) or the point of ending sooner with the thrones gets lost.
That's my $.02 anyhow.
I will get my disciple later today. Switching away from Ashdod, to the pale ones/cave people (forget their name) - though if anyone wants them, that's fine, I'm not set on any faction and have others I'd be happy to play.
