This is my thread for PB48

My password is "ape".

I've been playing with generating the Building Tree.
Just now I've contributed and became the proud owner of Caster of Magic 6.0!
And I wholeheartedly appreciate Seravy's effort in it.
Also to be able to see what its Building Tree will look like after my tinkering with the Tweaker.

So anyway, here's a sneak preview:

EDIT: Oops, accidentally picked a MoM 1.31 tree. Let me redo that. Stay tuned...

Ok, let's start it. Every single strategy game with diplo component I played before ended with everyone dogpiling against me and with all allies betraying. No idea why but maybe I am bad at diplo. So, I hope, Irismono would handle this part here. (Of course, there is also a possibility he also betrays and become a double-agent for other players).

Fact - I haven't played pitboss since 10 years
Fact - I am a newcomer in this forum
Fact - I have yet to test RTR mod

The evidence is clear, this will be fun!

Now, it's time to deliver...

Not very many pre-game thoughts, especially not at this time of night.

Players keep out!

I used Full of Resources to roll a Big and Small map due to the customizeable options. I toned down the resources to near minimum levels to provide a standard level of resources. I selected Massive continent, all coastal starts, tiny islands option BUT minimum island size 3 tiles (to prevent polka-dot), group resources (to allow for more trade options), force the appearance of all strategic resources + ivory "in the neighborhood" of all starts, force the appearance of marble + stone "in the player zone".

Screenshot of the geography, starts noted with YELLOW dots. I only moved one start (#6) as indicated by the Yellow arrow since the two in the south were very close together compared to the rest. I moved two islands closer to the continent since those two starts didn't have any islands available [well, they had one about equidistant between them that I still there for them to contend]. About half of the "Astro islands" can actually be reached by popping borders to 2nd ring if they plant cities correctly.

The game freezes when the battle ends with the enemies confused by the hero spell of the Confusion. I can reproduce this many times from save files. I attach the file.


Reproduction procedure. 
1)Attack enemies a few tiles to the right with Valana the Bard's army.
2)Confuse one of the enemies (the second one from the top) and end the battle.  
3)You will experience a freeze with the attached screen.

Hello all. Long time no see.

I'm interested in doing another FFH2 game with y'all. I'm highly indifferent as to what mod it is, and largely indifferent as to the format.

As in, I don't care if we use MagisterModMod, EITB (my baby!), MNAI, ExtraModMod, or whatever. I'm just keen for something!

I'm also quite indifferent as to format. I think I'd most like to do a succession game, but I could be talked into a MP PBEM/Pitboss, or even live game.


I do have some ideas for succession games. We could do:

• A really tough scenario, like MNAI version of The Black Tower, or another of the climactic scenarios. 
  
• A competitive succession game, where we switch which civ we're playing as each time - so I play as the Illians for 10t, upload the save, then @Bob switches (passing my civ to the AI) plays as the Lanun for 10t and so on. (I wouldn't imagine this being very serious - I would post updates on my civ freely, for instance. It's all about having fun.)
  
• Combining the above, for one of the cooperative scenarios - or even for one with even matched positions, like the Elves one or the Decius one. 
  
• Another Perpentech succession game.
  
• ??? - some wacky condition. This could be: Always Peace! Always War! A custom against the Barbarians game with full-fledged barb civs! A Require Complete Kills game where we start with 5 super units against fully developed AIs and have to raze every city! A game where we pick up the lowest-scored AI civ after the AIs are left to develop for 150-200t! 
  

If you are a player, please wait till i win this pitboss before reading further!



For my easy reference:
Here's a micro plan for settling south.

The tech path is BW-wheel-pottery-AH-Writing. There's an event that gives you beakers for the tech you're currently researching, so I think we want to always have something selected (unless I've misunderstood how that works).

More micro!

t31 settle city 2 - start work boat C2 works clams, Cap works gf hill, slider to 90%
t32 Cap's chop comes in, scout moves so that he can see any animals that could hit forest 3E of the Cap or copper, slider to 0%
t33 Cap starts terrace, if safe worker moves to forest 3E of cap, other worker goes to forest 2S of cap, slider to 100%
t34 Settle city 3 and start terrace while working sugar, cap works wheat+2 mines,
t35 cap whips terrace and works 2 mines, C3 works wheat, put forest under control of C2
t36 Cap overflow into settler,
t37 worker mines & other to copper, WB to clams, Cap switches to WB and works wheat/clam, C2 works clam/mine, C3 works sugar
t38 Cap works clam/mine, C3 works wheat

t39 AH comes in - the location of horse might change things. Cap works clam/wheat/mine, C3 works sugar, slider to 0%
t40 C4 works sugar/mine
