Clash of Gods! - RECRUITING!

[Nightbringer]

well, I would take france but I am already playing them in 2 games. I will therefore rule as the Holy Roman Emperor. And I promise I will stay far away from streams, I'm not going to see Jerusalem as a pickle!
edit:
wait, no, I want sicily!

my choice is sicily

[ArcturUs]

Ok, so as of now

Muslims: Silver Shield as the Crusader States, LooseCannon1 as the Moors, Me as Kwarezmians
Catholics: Myth as England, Ashurnasirpal II as Leon-Castille, Nightbringer as Sicily

slysnake must choose now, Visorslash wil pick last.

[Myth]

PMed Slysnake.

I take it France and the Holy Roman Empire are left? I think I will go with France, for reasons of my own heritage :)

[Visor]

Either Turks or Egypt....

ya, go for FC :P They are a strong muslim faction.

P.S. Shouldn't we have a pic for our Hotseat?

You guys should start a new thread when the game starts, with the rules in the first post and a pic if you can get hold of one.

We have a resident content manager Quirl but he's been struggling a bit in RL recently so he may not be able to help..

[ArcturUs]

I have one more question, what difficulty are we choosing for AI? H/H or VH/VH?

P.S. Myth, could you post all the settings for this game in the first post or maybe in a new thread.

[Visor]

Fatamid Caliphate will do.

[ArcturUs]

Everyone has picked the factions heres the final list

Muslims: Silver Shield as the Crusader States, LooseCannon1 as the Moors, Me as Kwarezmians, Visorslash as Fatamids
Catholics: Myth as England, Ashurnasirpal II as Leon-Castille, Nightbringer as Sicily, slysnake as France

[slysnake]

Nice, so when do we start?

[Visor]

I'll be gone for 10-12 days or so in around 5 days, so SilverShield can sub me.

[ArcturUs]

Nice, so when do we start?

have pmd Myth, he must be starting the game within the next few days or so.

Edit: Myth has started work on the image

I'm happy that we got this game going! I'll make a new thread, explain the rules, the setup screen and all that jazz. I'm working on a picture right now! (I so love my new PC and how fast the Adobe products run on it)

oh you got new pc? god everyone is upping their pc, but Im stuck with my old c2d processor and n9400GT for the next 4 yrs , as my dad wouldn't let me get a new one . I couldn't run Shogun 2 with this

[Visor]

I know your pain. I had troubles running Shogun 2 on low before. Upgraded the graphics card, all games run faster, but it shuts off every couple of hours.

I'm currently using an ATI 6950 2GB GDDR5 RAM, and my FPS is still not great. I'v come to the unfortunate conclusion that its due to my tri-core 2.9GHz AMD CPU and somewhat outdated motherboard that Shogun 2 still runs slower, even after overclocking my GPU and CPU :(

[phonicsmonkey]

My beautiful new computer runs Shogun 2 like a dream...MWuahahahahahaaaaaaa

What CPU and motherboard are you using, and how many FPS do you get? I'm looking at buying a new CPU and mobo sometime over the summer :)

[phonicsmonkey]

It's a Gigabyte X58 UD5 rev 2.0 with an Intel i7 950. I have ATI HD-6950 2GB and 6GB of Ram.

I have no idea how many FPS I get but when I next play I'll let you know.

I take it you do alot of video encoding - hence why you have soo much RAM? XD

We have an OOC thread! Now I just have to work out the Hotseat save with Phonics because I can't get Hotsteat to work on SS (or any mod for that matter, only on vanilla)

RAM is pretty cheap these days compared to other components...
