Master of Magic - Implode's Multiplayer Edition

If MoM is running slow in dosbox, you should probably increase the CPU cycles and/or memory allocated to it. You know, a good step would be to read the documentation for dosbox before asking for help. Same goes for your questions about IME....it sounds like you're leaping to failure before even atte...

It would be nice to have rewrites...or even more music tracks, if people have the time to do that. The fat man did a nice job on the original MoM's music, but it is pretty limited, there just aren't that many songs, and they're all relatively short. Would it be too much of a stretch for mp3 sound? T...

that does sound cool - maybe an option to change the chances for certain random rewards? could probably make some new artifacts to add to the rewards table without too much trouble...even new heroes, though I imagine those would be more of a pain and deviating farther from the original MoM that said...

one game style I've done is only allow those of your species in your empire - exterminate the rest of the races you find. this is both a blessing and a curse - it limits your diversity, but you have to worry less about unrest (especially as dark elves, the race I was using) it seemed fitting for dar...

Isn't it possible to get a - well, not infinite, but extremely high score, simply by gaining more fame per turn than you lose by taking the turn itself? you lose what, 2 points a turn? and one fame is worth two points? an average one fame a turn isn't hard to come by once you establish a power base ...

I've only seen one version, I came a bit late onto the scene. Although...there will eventually be room for...how many players were you planning on? 14 people and a handful of CPUs? So invariably somebody is going to have a color similar to someone else's *shrugs*

speaking of colors, I noticed that in the last version (8.8?) that most of the player colors were shades of brown or tan or beige....maybe that's just the random colors they were given in the games I played with, but it made distinguishing between them annoying *shrugs* nothing that actually impedes...

sounds like an excellent idea! there's going to be mouse-over or right click information screens to let a new player know what the different color codings mean?

chaos channel and black channel work differently - black channel doesn't just make them "death" creatures - it makes them UNDEAD. this is why they can't heal, or gain experience, etc. That's how it should work. Chaos channel is only supposed to make a normal unit a chaos unit - so they get...

My roomate managed to find this glitch in the MoM that I'd never seen before - very strange, but actually came in handy. Essentially, his starting city was on top of a magic node. This meant he couldn't move troops onto the city (troops he built there seemed to be OK) without starting a battle with ...

yeah...sidetracking you from the core points of MoM IME wasn't my intention when I mentioned bugs! You're right, the important thing is to get it working first - worry about going above and beyond the original game after that, if you're not sick of the project by then :P besides, adding multiplayer ...

After checking in the game, I realized that evil omen (and maybe other death magic curses?) say they have no effect if the person you cast it on can use death magic. But, it seems to let you cast the spell anyway, and it still shows up in the city description - perhaps that's why there was no icon. ...

I'm pretty sure I remember some kind of skull or demon head for evil presence too...thought it hovered over the buildings? maybe I'm nuts, I'll go check it out in-game....don't remember one for pestilence - but then, I rarely see those spells cast (by me or the computer) since in old MoM even the bl...

I haven't been playing MoM as much or as long as most posters here, and just recently started delving into impossible mode - and getting utterly crushed. I've tried aggrressive races to expand quickly (either by conquering or my own settlers or a combination) and I've tried more defensive strategies...

I'll have to play around with it a bit once I get home!
