MP Players Wanted

[choppinlt]

I'm one of the beta testers and I have a small local group who plays Kingdoms MP (which includes my son). While we play to win, we are a pretty casual friendly group. We currently have England, Almorhavids, Sweden. Venice, Poland, Rus, Hungary and Calabria Apulia, and we are looking for up to 3 players. One to play a faction in the Spain/France region, and 2 players in the middle east (e.g. Fatimids or Seljuks, etc). If you are interested in joining, go ahead and respond here with the faction that you would like to play.

DLC or not?

[choppinlt]

No DLC on this one.

Rules?

[choppinlt]

Rules... the only things we have been agreeing to is no more than 6 knights (or equivalent) per army, dont over manipulate the regional decisions, and let humans have a chance to surrender before destroying them. That's the major stuff.

[Surt]

Hi, I and Gribol are considering taking over some of the far eastern muslem nations, but we would need to discuss it a bit more if you havent found anyone else for now.

[choppinlt]

That would be great! We have another person locally who is also going to join....brand new player. So let me know what your plans are so we can get this thing started.

[gribol]

Fatimids for me, please.

[Surt]

Fats and Seljuqs(a replay for me of the launch MP)

[Surt]

What difficulty?

[choppinlt]

Experienced I think. I will PM you both the pw when i set up the game. i am doing that right now....

[choppinlt]

I PMd each of you the information. Let me know if there are any issues.

[gribol]

No issues. I will join in about 8 hours from now.

Im curious, are Knights so overpowered that you need to limit them to 6 per army in MP?

Impossible to defeat, in any terrain, or just plains?

In my game against Experienced AI, I have an army of English foot Huscarls, each Huscarl with a combat rating of 44. I also have knights of course for the flanks and crossbowmen for support. Total strength over 800. They could probably give that army of knights a hard time.

[Surt]

Maybe, but if you don't have the right units for that you will be wiped out, and there are many factions that can't get strong enough units to stop it.

[Patrat]

Well if knights can run over almost any opposition, in any terrain, then they obviously need adjustment.

IMO, they should be at a disadvantage in forest and mountains at least.
