Oh go on then, I’ll play… even though I definitely don’t have enough free time, I can never say no to this game!

Think having thrones of equal strength is good. Happy with any era though EA has the new Therodos nation. I know nothing about them though myself. Map needs to support at least two UW nations.

Alright, lets do Early Age.
How about a set of Level 2 Thrones? Bit harder to take, and more slightly more impact on the game. If I recall correctly, most of them give you a StR mage, some gems, and a dominion shift.
That sounds good to me. And I agree that keeping thrones at the same level is better.

Ok, lets give this a few days for folks to consider nations. I also want to allow time for more players to consider joining, and apparently from what TurinTur wrote Theredos is a complicated nation.
Proposed Map: Orania (it will be a lot of prov per player with only seven…)
Proposed Thrones: One per player, level 2, need 50% to win.
Proposed Mods: Worthy Heroes_v.1.2release

With the map, I guess the question is how many underwater nations will there be. I half expect psyanojim is keen to play UW?
I don’t envy you picking a map, but I do think Orania might be too big. It could be made to work if perhaps resources/income were adjusted.
I’m keen to try out the new underwater stuff sure, but its not a dealbreaker. I’m flexible.
I too have not enough time, but this game is too much fun. Add me please!

I picked Orania because I know it has a lot of ocean, thus encouraging the UW races, and because I hope we have enough players to make it work. We can always change it up later.
Excellent, BotBaddict! You cannot resist the lure of Dominions!

Alright, lets get the party started. How about, since we have 8 players, the map of Urraparand? Ostensibly its for 10 players, but it has 35 sea provinces, which should encourage some UW action.
And lets open the calls for the nations! First come first serve!

I’ll take Berytos please.
Urraparand looks good. My Four Fiefdoms map could work if we have a lot of UW nations.

You could at least link it DireAussie :)

I do like DireAussie’s maps because the tilesets are easy to spot without having to click on the province. It also doesn’t have a big area of wasteland. But happy with any map really. Just want to play a game and hopefully perform better than I have compared to the last 2 games I’ve been in (Hangman and TheHill).
I think I’d like to try Arco please.
just pitch a nation, i’m sure it’s all good :)
