Bookwyrm627: desire to play other games once in a while. :)
My Divinity:OS 2 game is halfway done and my BattleTech career is also halfway done. Personally, I blame Southern.

And I just bought X-Com 2 so I definitely feel your pain.

I think we should play ''Shipwrecked'', a map made by Rheno, who made the Prison Break map too, that we've played before.

The races are:
Elves
Dark Elves
Archons
Undead (Jamesede)

I am tempted to just start the PBEM now, but I may as well post this first so people have a couple days to express their preference for race. Or map.

Sounds good to me, I'll take undead.

Great initiative Southern!

Dark elves, I've been the goodie dogooders last time :)

Edit: opening the map the dark elves have air magic, which I've also used a lot recently - some might say abused ;-P

I'll play the tree huggers.

I'll take whomever you don't want.

QUIT OPENING MAPS!!!

And I assume you mean Elves now rather than Dark Elves since there are no trees in the land of Lloth.

Oh my apologies, is that bad sport? That didn't occur to me as map knowledge might come from experience. I won't do it again. I didn't spend a lot of time looking around, it was for the spheres - I just remember that there's an island in the middle with a strong garrison.

And I'll let you know that tree hugging is a national sport - the record is 43 days hugging a tree, living only out of its raw bark and sap!

Elves - Arnuz
Undead - Jamesede
Archons - Mimo
Dark Elves - Southern

can't be bothered to start a thread or whatever, this is an MPE game, Lost-Shipwrecked by Rheno is the map, standard house rules, no allied victory, surrender should be disabled, etc

You catch the last second switch to the MPE mod that Southern just made?

In other words, prepare for a world of hurt fighting my massive army of Legionnaires with Block V (+10 defense!!!). Oh wait, I'm going to be the one in a world of hurt with my death weakness Paladins against you. Dammit, face palm. :)

Cool! I've set the question as answered as per Thereunto's idea. I'll start the map this evening. First to install the mod..... ^_^'

I need your email to start.

Because of TZs I'll do this order:
- me
- Southern
- Mimo
- Jamesede

I'm doing it like this because it alternates the goods and the bads. Let me know if I should swap the last two - like this it's perfect if Mimo is east coast and Jamesede west, if it's the opposite I'd rather drop the neat alternation.

Undead,. Day 1

Well, I guess I myself am technically undead, but my army is mostly orcs and dogs. There's humans nearby though, so maybe I'll just rule them. I'm sure I can find some magic to turn them into undead eventually. I sent a wolf scout to claim a tower before regrouping for an assault on a local farm. My loyal forces routed the human militia there and I was proud to see my Black Flag Rise Above the local mill. Tomorrow we set our sights on a human village to serve as a starting base for the establishment of my new kingdom.

I may have a restart, sorry everyone. And sorry Arnuz, I accidentally opened your turn.

I don't know if this is a bug with the MPE mod, but when I finished my turn and it asked me to save it, I saved it in the Email Out folder like normal, but when I went to attach the file to my email to Arnuz, it wasn't there. I assumed that the original file in my downloads folder would have been overwritten as well, so I just attached that. But apparently that one is still stuck on my turn, which I've password protected, and Arnuz was unable to open it. I can't actually find the new game file in my Email Out folder in Windows, even when I view Hidden Files. But when I open the game and load from Email Out, its right there, clear as day. I open that file and its Arnuz's turn (which I quickly closed, sorry Arnuz). So I opened the file in my Downloads folder, which gave me the cheater warning, but just took me to the screen asking if I wanted to manually or automatically forward the turn on to the next player. So I didn't actually get a chance to replay my turn. I tried saving it to Email Out a couple times, still same problem. The game can find it, but neither gmail nor Windows can. So I tried saving it to my desktop and that seemed to work. I was able to find the file there, and I attached it in an email to Arnuz. So hopefully that works. Sorry about all this guys, never had this problem of phantom save files before. I can only assume its something to do with the MPE mod since this is my first game using it.

James.

Odd, I can see my EmailOut files. Maybe you didn't have the windows explorer wind set to show all files, so it was only showing a given type?
Posted March 20, 2020
I can see all the other files, Wintergarden and my previous games, just not this new one. Its Wierd
