Between Kings: Interregnum MP I

[panther-anthro]

So, this is the thread for the Interregnum MP game, it's going to be played using Interregnum 1.05. It should be a largely stable release, and have a lot of new events etc, the main purpose of this MP game, will also allow for a lot of balance, and other data to be gathered, so that it can be implemented to further improve the mod.

We are looking for people who are experienced in EU 2 MP, but newer players is fine. Prior experience with Interregnum is a +! Ideally we'd like at least 6 players, but we'll see what we get.

Anyway, here's the stats so far:

Gametime: Saturday Central timezone USA 13:30 hours

Host: Panther-Anthro

GM: Panther-Anthro

Rules: TBD

Nations:

Teutonic Order: Panther-Anthro
Sicily: R3lic
Colonel: Al-Andalusia
TC_Pilot: Burgundy/Swabia
MattyG: Byzantium

Post the nation you want, or think you'd want below, It'd be wise to check out the event text for your nation, before you decide on it, so you know what your getting into. But remember, that the MOD does give you cores ingame, so they don't need to be edited in.

 

[panther-anthro]

I was just basing it off the fact that I was pretty sure there were around 6 players in the american timezone? If there isn't we can move it to 12 PM Central USA time on Saturdays.

 

[TC Pilot]

I'd be interested in participating, though it would be much easier for me if we started even just 15 minutes later.

I can't really decide which country I would want to play as, though Byzantium, Burgundy, Swabia, and Il-Khanate all appeal to me (in no particular order) (at least in 1.4). I'm thoroughly interested in seeing Al-Andalus and the Caliphate crushed, so I wouldn't object to some crusading state either.

too late for me, east cost to my country is like 5 hours difference already, middle usa must be like 7, so 18:30+7 1:30 am? def too late

 

[panther-anthro]

Nah, I'm central it'd be 12:30AM.

The real problem lies in finding an agreeable time, the time is flexible. If you guys want I'll make it 12:30 Saturday Central USA time. This means Col would be able to play at 6:30PM his time.

 

[TC Pilot]

Edit - never mind, misread the times.

 

[panther-anthro]

Why would it be to late for you TC? How is 12:30 PM Central USA time, to late...? It's 12 in the afternoon, on a weekend.

 

[TC Pilot]

Sorry, thought you meant 12:30 AM CST.

 

[panther-anthro]

Nope, that'd be 6am his time, it works best in the USA afternoon, apparently. Does that work for you?

Note: I actually have a beta version of 1.05 made, but it doesn't have any of 'matty's changes'

 

[unmerged(98575)]

Id be interested, Genoa would be my first choice.

 

[panther-anthro]

Sounds good, I should have the Italian formation event by then. Probably Lotharingia as well.

Here's the beta version of 1.05:Beta Version Thread

 

[TC Pilot]

If beregic picks the Caliphate, I'll write off the Il-Khanate, since they're irreconcilably oppossed to one another and so close together.

Although I'm still quite torn between the other three. If anyone has suggestions I'd be happy to hear them.

 

[panther-anthro]

Of those three, I'd say the most complete is Swabia, and even then it runs out of all events at 1550 or so.

 

[panther-anthro]

I'm playing Teutonic Order if no one noticed, I also have a lot of the new 'saxony' events, and their 'monarchs' done. So Saxony, is getting closer to being a validly playable nation.

Poland is also more playable then it was before...

IMHO: We need a Eerie/Brittany/Scotland, Bavaria/Swabia, Genoa/Sicily, Caliph, Al-Andalusia, Teutonic Order/Halch-volynia/cossack/goldenhorde, and Kalmar Union.

Other nations which would help balance things out: Tlemcen *they work well now, since my edits, and matty.*, Burgundy, Hanseatic League, Hungary, Byzantine, Kingdom of Jerusalem

 

[TC Pilot]

il khanate might be out( huge RR right after start, many revolts, religious choices, would not really be a match for calipath and even if they do win what would be next? constnt 1v1 wars?). however AGAIN depends on how many players. however IF there is a byzhantum human that also has a genoa and teutonic AND a ukraina(or golden horde) bordering him, then il khanate could be a very valid choice indeed as it creates posibilities for various alliances/intersets.

An Il-Khanate player is dangerous for the Caliphate, because if and when Baghdad falls (early on, as Khanate starts with huge military advantages), it essentially wrecks them for the forseeable future, which in turn prevents any expansion to resist the next Khanate invasion, which is why it's an either/or situation.

 

[panther-anthro]

I would like it if we had more unusual nations, but stable nations outside of europe are... not as common as I'd like, btw the fixed beta 1 is out, and beta 2 'will' be out tommorow, I have to add in Saxony/Brandenburg Leaders.

Unusual in what regard? Not sure wwhat you're getting at.

 

[Monkii-sama]

Never played this mod before, is it any good? I might be interested in this MP but I'd be losing a lot of saturdays I suppose. I'll have to think about it.

 

[panther-anthro]

It's really good, just, it's a lot different from the normal game.

playing at 6:30 am in any day of the week doesnt cut it for me :\ but since you're mostly americans and cant play at my evening time, well i guess im excluded.
