VERY COOL... I will be spending time on making multiplayer maps worth playing.

I am super excited... I hope I can figure it out.

If Fantasy Wars has custom forces and pit multiple players against each other in online battles it will gain a huge following. Lobby or not, this is going to be a huge factor in gaining popularity.

I know that once I can be proud of the multiplayer options I will be pushing this game to everyone I know, (several hundred employees at work for starters... heh)

Basically, create an unofficial multiplayer map pack with allot of variety.

Another question, can you allow it so players can select which type of army they want to use. For example, the result could be ork vs ork vs ork.

I got it to the point of... no preselected and deployed units, however I have no cash for force selection. Two deploy zones per side.
I will poke around a bit more, I am editing MP3 (saving as MP3-TEST).

EDIT: I added an event to give active player 1964 gold, but I still cant seem to deploy anything. Missing something... hmm

Go to the "Map" menu and click "Fractions". Here you can set the initial amount of gold for each player, and this is also where you change races if you want to battle orc vs orc for example. If you choose to edit a fraction you can change starting units in the reserve list, what units are available for purchase and so on. Very easy once you get the hang of it.

And to be able to deploy you must have units in the reserves list, which you don't have by default in MPM3, so you must buy some first in this case.

you must also to set the units avaible to buy,
this also you can do in the fractions-edit menu

I decided to edit "The Gambit" and it was easy as pie... made it orks vs elves, increased the gold for unit purchase, changed the deploy hexes and it worked fine.

I wonder what I am missing in the other one... perhaps "Test Deploy" needed to be used in some way?

Ahhh... off to work..
