Feel free to add to this, hopefully peer pressure will force Cull into only having 2-3 viable champs left to play and maybe, just maybe his team can win more than 10% of the time.
Hi, not sure what I'm supposed to type into the books box, but after typing in a name, choosing a race and clicking start game I get this:

I've seen several people ask about lair results in Fall from Heaven, and have commented about them in spoiler threads. I thought it would be good to have a non-spoily place where the information was available; thus this thread.
First, hut results. First column is for non-recon units; second is for recon units (more specifically, units with the bNoBadGoodies flag set):
For lairs (this may not be much clearer than pasting the python code, but I hope it is):
For dungeons, barrows, ruins, and goblin forts, roll 0-99 and add the level of the exploring unit.
1-13: BigBad
14-43: Bad
44-73: Neutral
74-93: Good
94+: BigGood
The epic lairs (Pyre of the Seraphic, Bradeline's Well, Broken Sepulcher, and Maenalus) use the same roll, but have different results:
1-53: BigBad
54+: BigGood

I'm a steam user and I think my credit card information was saved in the program. I already changed my account password, but I'd like to ask if there's something else I can do regarding security.
Can anyone give me some tips ion configuriong DOSBox v0.74 with MoM Insecticide 1.4f?
I usually use VDMSound but the sound effects slow combat to a crawl. With DOSBOX, I get sound in battles (much better) but the screen is in the middle of my monitor and I can't get it to fill the screen. There's also mouse trails and flickering and bits of the images spill over the edges.
Someone did a superb cvs for Daggerfall which smoothed the graphics and fonts and got rid of the bugs running under XP. Is there anything like that for MoM?
You can be any character you want, real or fictional (the flavour is intended to be pretty lighthearted) so long as it's not a werewolf. If I don't know the character I'll ask for a link to the source. So you can roleplay whomever you like. But it will probably be more entertaining the more well known your character is.
You'll get a secret power vaguely related to the character's flavour. Wolves will have powers too. Powers might or might not be duplicated and I'm quite willing to give typically village powers to wolves and vice versa to cut down on the metagaming.
You can expect that picking characters to fish for a certain power (like a famous murderer for "Vigilante") or picking a really powerful sounding name hoping for an amazing ability won't work.
Recruitment won't be in the game. I'm expecting the game not to be as large as WW9 so multiple factions aren't needed.
We can vote on majority lynch rules.

The map requested is one which has been randomly rolled and very minimally edited, with the only changes made in the interest of playability and to the starting units. Players will start with two settlers each (with the starting settler promotions), two archers, and two scouts. The map itself should be Large sized (or Huge if using a small script), with plenty of room to explore & for barbs to found cities in, and with lots of space between players. The players should start on a pangaea, but some side islands / a small continent or two would be appreciate as well.
Initial concept post:
Is there any interest in reviving the "No Settlers" option for another FFH PBEM game? It was tried for FFH IV, but due to having a too-heavily edited map and some other factors I don't think that game did the concept justice. I envision a new game using some of the following settings:
* Players start with a couple settlers each, so that they aren't playing OCC for dozens of turns
-OR-
Players start with no settlers (or units of any kind), but the game uses Advanced Start. I'm not sure if certain elements you can place in Advance Start would need to be banned or what point amount is most fair, since I've never tried it before for FFH. But I'd be willing to give it a shot.
* The map uses a high difficulty setting and Raging Barbs. In the interest of fairness and not placing the mapmaker in a tough position, we should probably avoid the "Barbarian World" option- so no pre-settled barb cities.
* Very large map world, to avoid players inadvertently ruining barb spawns.
* Kuriotates possibly banned; I lean towards "yes".
There's a lot more options to be discussed of course, but I think those are most of the ones central to the basic concept.
I'd like to run this theoretical game using EitB.
Four or five players is probably ideal for a decent turn-pace. I'm not looking to shatter land-speed records with this game, but player availability for at least weekend blitzes would be greatly appreciated, since turns with only a few cities per player should not take long to play. If players are able to get large blocks of turns done via gamespy or direct IP sessions, that would be great as well. Just because it's a PBEM doesn't mean that all of the turns need to be played that way
