Re: Okay, let me pitch Dominions 5 to you
Hahah, yes, old habits die hard.
Quickhost mode is On, meaning it will automatically resolve the turn if everybody sends before the deadline.

Ah, fun! I'm excited to get this going! I'll be opening up diplomatic channels as soon as it seems relevant--we're all on the forum here so it should be pretty easy.

Re: Okay, let me pitch Dominions 5 to you
Speaking of diplomacy, usually it's considered fine to scheme, lie and backstab your opponents, but something that's considered sacred is item/gem trading. If you agree to trade something, please do keep your word, since with no trust there can be no trade in-game.

Re: Okay, let me pitch Dominions 5 to you
There's a few major things you're not really supposed to do. This is one of them, inventory flooding (where you send someone a ton of worthless magic items to push good ones out) another, copying Bogus and Friend's orders after charming them a third.
It's a pretty small game. Just dropping the deadline entirely in favor of Quickhost should work just fine.

Re: Okay, let me pitch Dominions 5 to you
Inventory flooding isn't really a problem anymore since magic item space was greatly expanded, and copying attack commander has already been fixed in dominions 4 (besides being an extremely impratical trick since it relies on a one of a kind random event and then having the right paths of magic).
Ten players is hardly a small game if you ask me.
Anyway it depends on what other people want, anybody else voting for that?

Re: Okay, let me pitch Dominions 5 to you
Personally, I favor a 26 hour turn timer with autohost on.
Also, I agree; inventory flooding is no longer a relevant concern and attack commander was fixed. The sanctity of trades very much varies with play group, though.

Re: Okay, let me pitch Dominions 5 to you
I have no real preference either. While I would like to keep the game moving at a reasonable pace (36-48 hours per turn once we get into the meat of the game is absolutely acceptable for me), I also know that sometimes people miss deadlines due to stuff they couldn't control and that the inherent accountability a disciple game brings makes not having turn timers look like a better option than in non-disciple games.

Re: Okay, let me pitch Dominions 5 to you
Not unless the first ten turns drag on until July or so. Still, 26 hours is little enough that if you check your email daily you might end up with a 2 hour window. Generally that would be fine, but given that this is supposed to be a training game of some sort and what that implies about levels of communication I figure 48 hours would work better.
I'm not saying 26 hours won't work, I just don't think it's necessary.

Re: Okay, let me pitch Dominions 5 to you
May want to do 26 just so deadline doesn't creep, probably after about 8 turns or so kick it back to 50h, when it starts to get much more complex.
Is there a way to actually pull up detailed ally province and army information in a Disciples game? I'm not seeing any way to actually look at ally army setup.Last edited by Olinser; 2018-01-05 at 12:56 AM.

Re: Okay, let me pitch Dominions 5 to you
Hmn, I don't seem to have gotten an email from llamaserver. Is that normal? Is there a way to manually retrieve a turn file?

Check your spam, maybe? I've had to do that before.

Re: Okay, let me pitch Dominions 5 to you
Looks like there's a Request turn resend option on the game page (http://www.llamaserver.net/gameinfo....=GITPdisciples)
Might also want to double check the spam folder
