ME IZ BAK! again... (mythwars stuff here)

okay, so I just got back last night from a wild journey across the world, and now am still swamped with work... but that won't stop me from starting wars.

What will stop me (for a few days) is the fact that I am still writing all sorts of nifty little programs to help me keep track of things. So here's what I'm going to do.

First of all, we'll start planning for what's going on. I've got plans for an easier way of playing the game (not much has changed, but it's cool).

Basically, here's what I've got so far: Instead of hexes on the map (which are a pain), I'm switching it to regions. You'll see what I mean soon enough. Regions are much larger than hexes, and don't have the fixed shape. For example, there will be a region of the Northern half of the Ermine, as well as a region for the entire forest heart, and so on. Each region has a terrain type, monetary production value, and so on. You control a region by stationing troops there, and you no longer need the general to be with the troops for them to be in the region (although you need him to move them).

That's just one thing. I'll be posting new things at the Mythwars page soon (once I can get a few large things out of my way), and for now what I want to do is check who's playing and what they're playing.

The problem with the regions is that I'm only going to be allowing one player per faction. Here are some factions that we've already got, and you can make up new ones if you really want (which makes for more players).

The Dark
Free Cities of the North
Cath Bruig Empire
Dwarves
fir'Bolg of the Ermine
Trow
Northerners (zerks)
Scholomance
Mercenaries if you want them

Make up more factions if you want. They don't have to be limited to the myth map- it can be expanded a little.
Email me if you wish to be in the game the next time around. I'll try my best to keep you informed.

And to all of you who were in the first game and are still looking forward to the second... I'm really sorry about all these delays and bullshit. Hopefully the wait will be worth it. Ciao!
