Don't sell your self short, bob.  You've got more hours logged at it than I do. 


And need I remind you, B_C, that YOU are older than ME!  So, take THAT you jello slurping, moth ball smelling, dusty old fart!!

LOL - more hours does not necessarily mean I'm a better player. And I'm older'n than all of ya, so what does that make me?

a zombie

Immortal?


Bawb the Immortal ->



There can be only one!!

[undercovergeek]

He is Bob of the Clan Bawb. Born in 1518 in the village of Birmingham on the shores of the Manchester ship canal. And he cannot die

[bob48]

Nah, daft sod. That's the other Bob from Birmingham.

[MetalDog]

You can count me in, Barthheart!  Now, it's a matter of getting the other two...

[BanzaiCat]

I'll show up. At least that's my plan right now.  :D

[MetalDog]

Alright.  Looks like we have four.  Just reply to let me know I got this right.

As I expect it to be three against one, I already know what I am going to call this gaming session...














































Attack of the killer B's!

Mwhahahah

[Staggerwing]

I smell a pun...

... and not of the pickled onion kind..

[BanzaiCat]

Yup, count me in.  O0

Finally just won my first game of Warlock against the AI. I was going way too easy on them.

[MetalDog]

Crazy how that works out, isn't it?


What's the VC for our game tomorrow?

How big is the map?  And do you know how to customize your Mage before play?

[BanzaiCat]

I have not played with an 'avatar' victory condition yet. I assume that means there's a character on the board that represents your Great Mage and if he/she dies, that's it for you? I don't like that condition at all.

Thought it was pretty cool, though, when you defeat an AI mage by capturing their capital that all the other uncaptured cities go neutral. Just saying.

Anyway, also, what about the Armageddon VC that comes with the DLC? I tried playing that and the Dremer kicked my butt.

[MetalDog]

This is what I know about the DLC only one player has to have it in order for everyone to be able to play it.  It is my understanding, although, I am not 100% sure, that the host determines what DLC is included by what he has installed, i.e., I do not have the Dremer stuff, so, we won't have it in our game. 

As for VC, it's probably best we play to eliminate your rival mages.  Makes for a better AAR and everyone has to participate in diplomacy, which is a complaint many people have with the AI, exploitable diplomacy.  So, unless one of you IS a computer, it will be diplomacy by human intelligence. 

And I'll ask again, just so it is fair, does everyone know how to customize your Mage before the game starts?  Once you click Multiplayer, you will be in the lobby.  To the right of the screen is the default avatar, Miralbus.  Directly under his portrait is a Customize option.  Click on it to change your avatar, Race, and starting abilities.  There are numerous threads at the Warlock forum dedicated to curtailing which options MP should be allowed or not.  It's up to you fellas, but, I am inclined to make'em the way you want'em.  If you think something is overpowered, speak up and we'll discuss it.

In any event, it's T minus 8+ hours and counting.  You boys ready?

[bob48]

Yup

[BanzaiCat]

I'm here. Never done MP on Steam before, much less with Warlock, so...
