Rules:
-no cheating
-no spam retreating and restarting battle to slowly kill 4 indie dragons with a ram and a ballista or some bullshit like that. LAME!
(that should be a rule right?)

Map: An Uneasy Silence by IniochReborn.

My little edits to IniochReborn's map:
-every player gets a Spellcasting III infantry hero
-my item set is used
-Goblins AI is allied to Dark Elves, Halflings AI to Elves
-Azrac and Human AI leaders are beefy superheroes to avoid being assassinated

Humans: AI (with beefed up leader to avoid assassination)
Lizards: Southern
Frostlings: Jyri
Azracs: AI (with beefed up leader to avoid assassination)
Elves: Arnuz
Dwarves: Thereunto
Halflings: (lesser AI ally)
Highmen: Blackcat29
Goblins: (lesser AI ally)
Orcs: Vitek
Dark Elves: ZFR
Undead: IniochReborn

Give me the race that's left over after everyone and AI get theirs.

I'll play with any house rules. I would recommend Humans/Azracs be set to AI Emperor, and Highmen/Undead should either both be AI or both be player-controlled. I give less consideration to the Orcs; the Azracs/Lizards generally keep them in check as much as any other start location, if not more.

I'd like to play as Undead if anyone wants to match up as Highmen. Othereise, I'd prefer Dark Elves.

And yes, let's definitely use your items. I see mine are definitely still messed up lol.

Could I plonk down an extra Spellcasting III infantry hero for everyone to start with?

It's a matter of personal taste - namely that I feel a lot of matches don't see enough MAGIC!!!

Sure, I'd be on board with that

More magic is fine by me. Also, I'd like Frostlings.

I must have your email to start the game!

I'll match up as Highmen so we can get the balance. Also all for the extra hero, love when magic plays a pivotal role in the matches

Alright great, so I'm Undead!

If there's still space, I'll sign up

Game has started - including Vitek, Thereunto, everyone who asked.

8 players is the most I've seen in a PBEM!
Lizards, Day 1
We summon a boar and take to the waters all around us.

Also forgot to mention so everyone is aware, though you'll all notice quickly anyways; many starting units may have altered stats and abilities, as I didn't make the map using 1.36.

edit: Meant to ask also, are PBEMs played with Allied Victory?

I would've thought saving the map with edits on my end would've got rid of that, but apparently not.

I'll be a bit slow for the first few days, sorry. If you prefer to sub me no problem, let me know!
