So, did folks miss the pretender memo or was there a spacious deadline I missed somehow?

Ahh, how I wish R'lyeh was free. Mictlan is cap-reliant for the mages and the humongous map is terrible for the build I want to try. I'm almost tempted to switch to Agartha or something.

Bros, it looks like it's been discovered that quickness incorrectly gives 4x attacks instead of 2x, which is pretty ridiculously huge (haven't tested myself yet).

Is anyone making use of quickness with their pretender here? If yes, we could consider delaying the start until a patch since it's a pretty unfair advantage. Or we could just roll with it, I'm just putting the question up for discussion :)

I was actually planning to use quickness in my Mictlan pretender but I can go for an alternative build that's probably actually better, no probs.

Looks like game started. :M

Do we wait for the next patch, though?

I went with the non-quickness pretender since exploiting a bug is no fun, so I'm fine with either decision.

Unstarted game. Disabled auto start.

Let's start again. Maybe if we diidn't need a week for Pretenders this would not happen.

mondblut , get Lanka in. Everyone is good? MEkone is "Unexpected Nation" by the way.

I finally got to creating my pretender, and wow, what a pretender it is!

All right, submitted, and let the world tremble! (monkeys and rakshasas in particular, they'll really have it hard, teehee)

4 adjacent provinces, 1 of which is a throne and 1 which is ocean. I do have a swamp mountain with good resources (and a solid 21 income), but not adjacent to my capital. Isn't there any option to enforce a non-shit start somehow?

EDIT: Requesting restart. I'm not proud. It'll probably not matter in the end but I want to be able to at least pretend to be a contender (..or be content being a pretender; either way works).

I tried to get all the non-shit starts.

Oh, everyone is complaning. And with the patch hitting soon, no problem in restarting. Be careful, I'll do this once.
