Thanks, that's just what I saw in that damn battle. Not the best piece of equipment for a girl with just 45 hp, I guess.

One question: when killed a first time, did she keep other items or not? If not it is even worse, as a thug/SC given a second opportunity in the middle of a battle that killed him/her once, without equipment, is likely not to survive anyway.

She keeps everything but the bottle itself which is destroyed when used for that purpose.
The biggest problem in my case was that my queen didn't cast all her buffer spells again, so her second life was kind of quite short ;-)
I think the bottle makes only sense for SCs or thugs of a big tenecity even without the use of magic... and of course for every charakter who must be prevented from aging effects.

Here fleeing from the tyranny of Shrapnel dictators
@ All

Just one Pretender to go before the game can start. With Caelum/Xma being last to board the train. I won't PM him yet, since the provisional deadline is several hours away. I have also turned the auto-start off, as I'll be around for the next few hours, and I like to check to make sure everything is as it should be before starting a game. (although I will re-enable auto-start when I leave work)

Also, I found another map error (missing connection between 29-43), and so have uploaded a corrected map for you to use in this game. You guys won't have to do anything extra because of this to play the game (as you still only need the map image file), but if you want to play test the map, you may want to download the new version (linked in OP).


Edit - Another updated map has been linked in the OP. It's now up the version 4. Thanks goes to Nikolaj for pointing out the most recent connection error. Here's a direct download link.

Never try to help pig-headed douche bags. It's never worth the trouble, as some people are just too stupid and arrogant to listen

Wonderful, we've got it running :-)

I can already tell that it's quite different from SP... somehow I felt the necessity to check everything for a second and third time and even then I was afraid that I might have forgotten some important detail... on the first turn x-)

Yeah, I much prefer the game MP precisely because of that feeling, Gordon. So often in single player I can't be arsed with some fiddly bit of micromanagement: reorganise my dwarven hammers every turn, really?

never a problem in multiplayer.

Plus I don't accidently press end turn every three turns :S

@ Colonial:

Haha, that's exactly what I do all the time, too!
I'm just wondering how dangerous human opponents will be... I have heared from many people that MP is the only real challange for them; to me even the computer can be a serious opponent from time to time ;-)

Personally, this is my forth game MP and I have gotten to the endgame in one of them, as one of 5 powers left. (the game's still ongoing)

on the other hand, I can't deal with the computer on impossible. Generally I play mighty, and even then I can only really come out ahead if I put as much effort into it as if I were playing MP. (like if I'm playing comp-stomp with another person).

Still if you've played single player alot, you may have gotten some bad habits in your play style. just keep in mind that you're opponents arn't actually retarded this time around. :P

Hey Guys

I have to travel over the next couple days. Could we extend the hosting of this next turn to 48 hours? That should allow me to complete the upcoming turn file after I land home on the 17th. Thanks!
