MP Instructions
When game starts, you will email your pre-created pretender to pretenders (at) llamaserver (dot) net with the email title (game name). For example, if the game name is Seven for Sixteen, you will title your email Seven for Sixteen. Once everybody has sent in their pretender, you will receive an email from turns (at) llamaserver (dot) net. That file will be named (your race).trn. Stick this file in the folder located at C:\Users\(your user name)\AppData\Roaming\Dominions4\savedgames\(your game name). It's a good idea to create a shortcut on your desktop for this. There is also an easy way to get here by starting up dominions 4, clicking "game tools" and then clicking "open user directory". You can then simply click on the savedgames folder. You will need to create a folder for your game and stick the .trn file into that folder. You can then start dominions 4, go to "continue saved game" and play your turn. After you hit "end turn", you will now have a (your race).2h file located in that folder that you created. You will email the .2h file back to turns (at) llamaserver (dot) net.
So in summary:
1) Email your pretender to pretenders (at) llamaserver (dot) net with the email titled whatever the game name is.
2) Wait for email from turns (at) llamaserver (dot) net and download the .trn file into C:\Users\(your user name)\AppData\Roaming\Dominions4\savedgames\(whatever the game name is)
3) Load game like you would any other game and play your turn.
4) Email your .2h file back to turns (at) llamaserver (dot) net. Repeat steps 2 through 4.

Marigon please. Getting bored of Machaka now.

Gaslov would you consider using the Worthy Heroes mod?

I'm not really a mod person but this one is really nice.

Hi,

I'd like to join as Machaka if we can have the timer at 24 hours. 16 seems a bit too short.

I'll take Agartha, always wanted to play them on this map.

Tripwire, I've had a lot of success with 16 hour host times and people seem to like it. I will be keeping it at 16 hours so let me know if you still want to join. Bhoona, we'll have a vote on the mod once the game closes.

If 1/3 of players want to use that mod and there are a fewer number of objectors, then we'll use the mod.

Would like to join as Ashdod

Ok, thanks.

Boo Ashdod. Please do something more creative than a N9 bless.

Maybe I just pick anothe nation then, I just random pick a nation I have not play before.

No, it's fine.

Ah ok. I'd still like to to join if I may. However, not as Machaka but as Abysia.

Ulm please. interesting format. not 15 hof?

Do people want 15 Hall of Fame?

Edited by: Gaslov

I'd like to join as Ryleh.
If i had to pick about Hof i'd say 15 but I dont mind.

Oh, to speed things up, let me know if you want 15 HoF and if you want to use the worthy heroes mod.

well damn, most of the nations I want are taken, kind of want Ermor but don't want to be dogpiled first thing out the door

know what? screw it I'll play Ermor, it'll be a short game but should be fun.

Edited by: Terenak

Vanheim please !

Bandar log ! I changed my mind

Edited by: ARNOBOBO

I dont think worthy heroes changes the pretenders, so it won't produce an error afaik, If I am wrong someone please correct. I'm fine with the mod, btw.

Ok, we'll be using the worthy Heroes mod and we'll be using 15 HoF.

Bandar log ! I changed my mind :-)

Do I have to enable Worthy Heroes every time I load the game?

It will stay loaded in Dominions 4 default. You can turn it on or off as you choose, but if you don't turn it off after turning it on, it'll stay on.
