Naw, their gonna being English themed this time.

Names like Lundon and Wenchester. Did I spell those correctly?

[Harovan]

Btw, what about giving the Guerilla a 2 movement and adding it as fourth HU? May be we make it 6.6.2/140 shields (cheap upgrade from Cossack). That would give this unit actually a purpose.

Ask an Englishman about this, not a Kraut barbarian and coming dark grandmaster like me.

I could go for that. I was thinking about it, but I wasn't sure if people would go for modding to the point of adding movement points. And I still get worried about these units getting used as a main weapon instead of a diversion. How 'bout we make it 150 shields (like 10 shields is going to matter at that point anyway...)

Thing is Americans think anything German is cool. German beer, German engineering, Germans. France, not so much....................

I have no problem with adding Gorillas to the hidden nationality chain as long as their stats are an improvement over the Cossack.

[Harovan]

I think it should not entirely replace the Cossack, but accompany it. May be we make it even not upgradable. It has 1 less movement, but 2 more defense, which could prove to be useful.

[Donegeal]

Cossack: 6/4/3 130 shields
Guerilla: 6/6/2 150 shields

... and the Guerilla is a much cooler graphic!

One downside. All other Cav units don't upgrade at all...

[edit]

....must sleep....

[Harovan]

Ummmm... no upgrade Cossack --> Guerilla, I think. Let us build them both.

I like all of Don's ideas except the one where he says he kills everyone. I also like the idea of having MZ adjust the starting positions and/or resources to equalize things. Start position counts for so much in a game. What about choosing three traits? There will likely be some teams with same exact traits if we only choose two. We all will likely pick industrious....you get the picture.

Here's my specifics:
Civilization: Freemerica
Noun: Freemerican
Adjective: Freemerican
Title: A-1
Name: BigFree
Leaderhead: Cearsar (Romans)

Culture Group: America's
Color: Red

[Harovan]

Noun should be Freemericans, or do I get that wrong?

[GhengisFarbâ„¢]

I like your sig, BigFree.

[OPD]

I don't know about descriptions yet, I'll have to think of something.

I'll take Babylonian Leaderhead and blue colour.

I was going to be expansionist but 3 stlrs at the start and a jag will make it less effective,

[marcuspeddle]

I vote for secret start techs but I think two is enough. I won't complain about 3, though The Hidden nationality units are fine the way they've been proposed but I think the barbarians should be more powerful with more hit points or by making them immortals or something.
I don't agree with equalised starting positions. It's great to have a good start but there's a greater feeling of challenge when you start the game in a less-than-perfect position.

Having Master Zen set up the game is fine.
