I played the first few like he was a noob and he won easily. Then when I applied my full attention, he still won easily. Doh!

Which email is he again? Probably in my list

I didn't realise gold medalled units would give you more xp! And only recently realised about razing zeroing movement and trap always works if it goes over.


I'll message you his email, sometimes it gets deleted when posted.

Yeah, the formula is listed in the changelog; it looks like Silver medal gives roughly XP-and-a-half and Gold medal gives double when compared to a non-medal unit. I think the base was unchanged, at about 5XP per unit tier.

Pacifist took a hefty hit too, getting only 30% XP for a kill and being unable to make the Shrine of War or use Arenas.

Medal stat boosts got powecreeped because they're the same as in AoW1 where every stat has double the effect. (Units generally have half damage and HP compared to AoW2 and DEF/ATK increments by 10% per difference in the first game, not 5% in AoW2)

Sadly AoW2 doesn't work in quite the same way so I don't know how to edit medal stat boosts like I did in my aow1 mod.

Anyone have a race preference?

Shadow Demons, Nomads, Tigrans, Elves, Archons, Orcs.

No preference!

Never a preference. Each is special in their own way. Let's get this sucker started. :)

Game on!

Standard PBEM ettiquette rules in effect.

For funsies, Allied Victory is on.

Elves - Mimo
Archons - Southern
Tigrans - blackcat29
Nomads - goggogaowsm's brother
Orcs - Bookwyrm
Shadow Demons - goggogaowsm

Mimo is first to play. Mimo, play V2 and ignore that first attempt; I forgot to turn Surrender off.

Ping Mimo as first to play. Ping this guy, since it has been a while. Tell your brother, too. And ping this guy, since it has been a while.

Tigrans are a fun one to play. Here's the mod LINK.

Elves, Day 1

What craziness have I appeared within. Scouts are sent out. Vague feelings of deja vu.

Highmen Day 1

These starting units are really something - tell you later.

Your chat is closed, so I'm pinging you here. I want to make sure I set things up correctly.

Did you get the turn okay? Any problems getting the mod installed?

...

Hey, I have been troubleshooting trying to figure out why I can't get the email wrapper linked to the game. Have shadow magic and the mod installed, but the game won't find the email it is looking for. Any suggestions? sorry for the delay :(

I installed the MOD directly into the SM folder, was I not supposed to do that?


Here's where I am at: the game file has reached my e-mail wrapper.

The shadow magic mod is up and running.

When I enter the game and try to search or load the game file, there is a disconnect where the e-mail wrapper doesn't reach the game.
