Questions
Hi Imperium, good name <smiletext0>
If you launch AOW 3 you will get below screen, then you go to "User content" and chose the mod you will need. Remember that when you play a different game, without mods, you need to un-tick the mod again!



You actually don't need any expansions to play!

I think Cbower forgot to add the password in the description, and when he hosted the game he also forgot to de-select the mod "End of days"! So he will need to re-host the game.

You can select any race you want, but once Markymark have set up the team chat for us, we can discuss it. So hold on to join the session in AOW, and we can talk about good classes for the team to use <smiletext0>

The advice for the first few turns would be to clear one area, so you can build a settlement/fortress there.
I have some videos from a 4vs4 vs "The Italians" - send me your email and I will share the videos with you, the game is not over yet, so it will need to be private. If anyone else of the new players are interested in see it as well, share your email in comments below.
Here is another playlist from a 2vs2 match: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLylaFfW8qMlweLZKfPw2cxXU6iUdvFxKH

It could give you some ideas on how to play the first few turns.
DreadReapr is very good at expanding, so I'm sure he will have some good tips he can share in the team chat.

Newb questions
So, some questions from a very new PBEM player :

- What expansions are required to play the game (I currently only have the Goldem Realms expansion) ?
- I have downloaded the mod thanks to the link provided in the forum, how do I install it ?
- Where can I find the password to join the game on the triumph servers ?

And some questions to my fellow team mates and mentors :
- Am I free to chosse any race and class or do we get to discuss this among us before ?
- Any advice for the first few turns ?
- Any strategy to beat our esteemed adversaries into a pulp (of course not to be discussed here) ?

Game Hosted!
Ok. I have set the teams and positions above. Please join as listed above. The settings the same as the 2v2 tourney except a large land map with medium starting units. Land map is for you Dread <smiletext1>. It hosted on the AOW server as AOW3 Academy Game One by Drizzt51. Drizzt51 is my alternate account. I will be working with Marky and Hiliadan to get two team chat rooms setup soon. Team 2 please listen to Marcus and Dread, they know their stuff.

AOW3 Academy Game One
This is a casual 4v4 game, no report needed at the end, but if you join it is expected that you fully commit to the game. The point is to pair new players with experienced players to learn about PBEM and have fun. I need 4 new players and three more experienced players. It is expected that there will be alot of communication between teammates between turns both in game and outside of it. In order to make communication easier we will create persistent chat rooms for both teams either on battlefield, or by using hipchat or slack, or hosting an IRC. Persistent chat rooms are important for communicating with 2 or more people at varying times over a long period. It is expected of especially of experienced player to answer questions and give advice to teammates. It is expected of new players to ask questions, post theories and suggestions. It is absolutely important that this dialogue remains respectful at all times, especially from the experienced players. Players who can not do that will not be allowed back in future games.

Because this game is for learning and for fun, no quit and no surrender. Play until it is entirely decided. Fight back from bad starts, miscues and other issues. This experience is more about discussing the game, and learning from every point as it is the final result.  It is my hope other experienced players will host other such Academy games.

Thanks everyone for joining! We are looking for one more experienced player and then we can set teams and get started. Settings for the most part will be like the 2v2 tournament, but I am open to suggestions.

With the 8 player no top 20 filling up, it got me thinking this might be the right time. Glad to have you aboard Marcus!

Sounds good for me Cbower!
I also tried to find players for a similar game, but interest was limited. Now when the game is hosted, might be easier to attract players!

I know Tasslehoff was interested as well, he might join when our duel is finished.
