I’m in! Option B, mid age.

Always in for whatever pyhric comes in with, so count me in with qt3hangman.
As for the options, I defer to the majority. They all sound reasonable.
And open diplo will be a welcome change from Anon!
They talked about Fight Club more than Anon…
I’d be interested in giving MP another shot, and I like the sound of option B, indifferent about age.
QT3Hangman
I’m in, whatever the method. B sounds interesting, but maybe with one veto use, if the last nation someone played is Ulm, and he receives Ulm again, it will suck a bit.

I have a long time friend that finally picked up Dom 4 and would be interested in joining. If we get too many people, I could just drop out and help him a bit with his nation (or at least be there to answer questions) as I would like to give more people a chance to try the game out in MP. We are currently running a disciple game together to try to get a bit of a crash course in testing :).

24 hours added due to that pesky real life getting in the way again :)

Count me in if numbers are needed for a particular map, or happy to stand back and be available as a sub just in case.

Well played, DireAussie. My faeryqueen went off script when you cast Storm ( she was doing storm, summon storm power, fog warriors). So no Fog Warriors for me, and I have already seen that Fog Warriors > Army of Lead.
Of course, when you get hit by a dozen or so Shadow Blasts first turn, it kinda puts a crimp in your style.
However, I have more revelers and pans where those guys came from. I am also at a loss what to do with my Wyrm Who Walks. Nature gems are at a priority right now, and since hes immortal, but will die, it doesnt behoove me to give him gear, or gems. I could spam Storm of Thorns, sleep cloud, etc… anyone know what else I can do with an immortal N3 caster in combat? Actually try to use the Tunes, maybe?
Heh my shadow blasters are good only for the first turn. Army of Lead’s +4 MR makes most of my death evo spells useless. Army of Lead may be better than Fog Warriors against me, especially if you put lightning resistance on your troops. I got a few of those Pans at least :) You have so much income now that I can’t do much to stop your disposable sneaking forces from chewing up my lands.
Wyrm Who Walks spawns scarabs in battle every turn so putting him in an army casting nature spells may be useful just for the disturbance that the scarabs cause to enemies. Not sure how else to use him.
Kelan, are you attacking Pan soon? Thought you’d want to play with your toys before we eventually call Akaoni the winner!

Unless there is a reason not to, let’s throw in the new nation, Xibalba.

QT3Hangman - I will throw in Caelum, both because I would like to try them, and because TurinTur wants them as well.
And the truth is, don’t think I favor certain nations because I played with them before and I’m good with them. It’s the other way around: I favor untried stuff in games. In the case of Dominions 4, with 80 nations available and barely 1/4 of them tried in sp games, it seems silly to me to play a “repeated” nation, instead of a new one.
So not only I will be a noob in mp games, I will also be a noob in whatever nations picked.
