Spoiler: How does PBEM work? (click to show/hide)

• First of all, you need to download any non-standard map and mod we're using (links will be provided if we decide to use one), and put the files into the map and mod folders of your dom5 installation respectively (you can open the game folders from the in-game options menu).
• Then go to the options menu and enable the mod. (if applicable)
• Next use the pretender creation tool in the game tools menu to create a pretender and send the file(to be found in your /dominions5/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 will most likely be "Bay12GamesRound5XX [where XX is the Bay12 round count]".

You'll be receiving .trn files from llama server, which you should put into a {dom5dir}/savedgames/{whatevernameyouwant}/
After finishing your moves, a new .2h file will appear in that folder, which you should send to the same address from which you've received your .trn file.

You can always view the game status (including such information as turn submission deadline, and stalling data) at
http://www.llamaserver.net/index.cgi
by searching for the game name on the list.

[MCreeper]

I hope you also heard that im taking Lemuria? 
Damn, i'm signed up on too much things. Probably.

[ThtblovesDF]

Im in, will pick nation asap.

Also, how akward is it to be allys?/friends with the same player you are having a war with in another round...

[MCreeper]

Allied?

[USEC_OFFICER]

I'll be up for a game of Dominions 5. Haven't decided on my nation yet but I'm heavily leaning towards water Arco at the moment. We'll see if I can make them work before settling on anything, however.

[E. Albright]

Also, how akward is it to be allys?/friends with the same player you are having a war with in another round...

Not that wierd; you're at war with the nation, not the person. As long as you remember that, it shouldn't be any problem, really. Frumple and I were undercutting and murdering each other once they subbed into 401, and it didn't impact our relations as co-religionists murdering everyone else in 404 before or after...

[a1s]

I am in.

[ThtblovesDF]

Very tempting to either go sacred-c'tis spam or Eternal Hydras cause its nice and brain dead to do.

Normally I'd go Ry'leh cause they are the coolest thing on the planet, but I'll do some more testing...

[Endymion]

Count me in. Not sure as who yet.

[Ragnoff]

Count me in! If ThtblovesDF Does not take R'leyh I think I would like to try them. I have never actually played them in dominions 4 or 5 yet.

Otherwise, I will try Ulm.  I love that nation in early and middle but have never gotten a great feel for them in late. Because of that of someone else really wants them I would probably be willing to change nations.

[ThtblovesDF]

Ah take it man, I am the annoying pest underwater in enough games already.

As for settings, It would be nice to have a bit higher site frequency.

Oh and maybe Catacylsm after 88 Turns, we will never see it, but it could be fun anyways.

Edit: Tending towards the crazy Crusaders for now.

[a1s]

Eryteia (spelling?) sounds fun, I'll take that.

[Cruxador]

I suppose I'd like to play with you guys for once too, considering I post around here and have never actually played with y'all. It seems I've got similar taste to ThtblovesDF because I'm also considering Pythium and Marignon.

Do you guys have any special rules for diplomacy particular to Bay12? What I'm used to is trades are binding and for everything else, it's purely in-game.

[Wysthric]

I'll join too if you'll take me guys. I don't think I'll be anything but a roadbump for the rest of you but w/e, it should be a laugh.

After every one else has picked, chuck me in an RNG and give me the nation that comes out.

[MCreeper]

RNG, spawn me nearby those two newbies.
On Lemuria, i heard that in dom 5 they can (re)gain death income by building temples. I heard it wrong? If not, how much temples you need? If yes, how is this fair (nerfing death income from 15 to 9)(they now have magically attuned researchers and lemur consul is cheaper *facepalm*)?
