Good question. From my reading on different boards...I have saw talk of parties of 4 to 6....can it get bigger than this? 8? 10?

Would you want to be in a party of 10?

I believe (Like Xandax I think) that this is so we always have someone..( a fighter, a theif, a mage) to adventure with. In the small mods a party of two might can play it and have fun. So I guess party size will have to depend on the mod..small mod, small party/ big mod, big party right?

Yeah - this is pretty much my belife. We will properly play in a party of around 6 mostly, but there is nothing for that 2 people can game together with other people also.
For me this is mostly to be able to get somebody that want to play this game with me :)

So one day I'd might team up with Weasle and we would go out and defend GB/BoTB honour in a multiplayer game with person X and Y - and another day I'd might team up with 5-6 persons and possible a DM/GM from our midst and adventure together there.

I think if it's guild business that there should always be a thief or a cleric than detect traps or we would be screwed.

But really, does NWN support parties larger than 6?

Would be fun to take the whole Guild out on a field day. :)

Well I've read that depending on hardware a server can support large numbers of players.
eti. they say that a k56 modem should be enough to actually make a sever that could hold 5-8 players.
And a better connetection hold at least 32 players. And if a sever can hold 32 people (minimum) - well there shouldn't be anything against these players banding up in several smaller groups and still traveling together.

But still this is just speculation from my side - but I'd still think it is possible - also taking into account that some places will create persistant world ei. UO-like.

My greatest concern in all this is whether or not we have anybody that can/want to be DM/GM's.

I was just checking out the member list and was wondering how many guilds have 2 drow fighters. C'mon people be different.

Whoops forget that. I guess Aegis changed his name.

@Xandax: Could you change my name to Thorin Barmonger, please.

Yep - no problem :)

EDIT: It is done - it seems however that there is something wrong with the capital letters I've made - so I bid that people will be a little patient while I make new ones and change them out with these old ones :)

Barmonger? *LOL* :D :D

I have passed 500 posts whooppee for me! :)

Xan, your recieve rate for your cable is 256, yes? Maybe you could think about hosting? :)

Yeah - but my upload is "only" 64 - but that would still mean I could host games for about 8-15 people.
But I've never tried DM anything - so we would need somebody that can do this.

But - I'll seriously try to host some games.


Congrats on 500 post Nippy :)
