    Whining continues.
    If I read these settings right, winner of the game will be decided on arena again.

    If he has a specific bless and starts nearby me. And if he takes a good strategy. On my second match I fought against Fomoria: first time their N9 Unmarked and Kings put up a number on my troops, second time it was a slaughter. For them.

    Atlantis has a lot of toys (Evo, chaff troops with good stats and MAGIC WEAPONS) that can cut through of self-buffing. My Thug chassis is not that inferior. And if you are refering to mass Air, well, nothing stops in midgame mass Air spam efficiently.

    But no, no theorycrafting and talking about past games. Bad, bad me.

    As my other picks would be already-taken Ermor and Yomi, I would like UW Expanded, yes. You can check and see that it does not give me too powerful toys (the only regrettable thing is maybe that it gives me a adequate research monkey). It gives better Items for UW access and summons are a 'lil more flexible.

    Yes, this is how it begins in most cases, and we know where it ends in many...

    But Johannes is right. Just decide so we can blame you later :D

    Yeah, I'd too prefer to have a real ending than everyone just getting tired of the game eventually. Someone winning by concession is still possible always ofc, but why have thrones if they're not gonna be used for the victory condition purpose.

    Oh, I missed the added mage part. That's p. awesome for a drawn out game like this one. But doesn't really matter, somebody's gotta be the strongest nation in any case, be it TNN or Fomoria or Lanka, Xibalba, Atlantis or whoever. You've gotta play good to win in any case.

    Can we get more thrones? This is extremely low number for this many players. Vanilla thrones arent powerful enough to justify such low number of them. Also it adds to the RNG because if you do get a throne and manage to secure it youre in a batter position - with this number not many people will even see one.

    Ascension points required for victory: 10
    Number of level 1 thrones: 9
    Number of level 2 thrones: 3
    Number of level 3 thrones: 1

    Yep, one throne per player is the absolute minimum for me because it means you will have to fight those players to win the game.

    There were 19 in vanilla, I removed one, 18 left. All in original places, except for several (mentioned them in previous post). But I don't think we need to set all 18.

    hoverdog, are you saying that KoolNoodles is a trannie?

    Also, I don't look happy on the photo.
