Hi,

Again more questions about the multiplayer possibilities of BG2 :D

Is there any possibility to obtain more than one stronghold in multiplayer?

I'm the server, a Paladin, and there are a thief, a mage and a sorcerer players (4 total).

I could get the mage stronghold if I do export/import (of the mage, for example) into the first slot (thus the export/import of the Paladin into the slot where the mage was) where the arbitration of the PCs is done, but I like to know if this is possible maintaining the "first" (lider) slot reserved for the Paladin.

I've checked the lider privilege, but I don't know if this option makes this possible.

Any suggestions?

Regards and thanks.

Perhaps having all of you installing the Multiple Strongholds component from BG2Tweaks?

I prefer to not install any mods.

It's BG2 Tweaks Muti-Stronghold component available after loading a game, or you must start a new game when using it?

I seem to remember I had to start a new game. I also remember that having multiple strongholds became a nuisance because managing all of the stronghold side-quests took a lot of time. Next time I'll probably go for just two or three -- D'Arnise Hold, Planar Sphere and either Radiant Heart or the Druid Grove. I'll leave out the threatre, with all of those actors having hissy fits; and Maevar's Guildhall, where you score better for being a sadistic, greedy, bullying slaver.
I did battle with monsters, and they became me, and when I gazed into the abyss, the abyss looked away shyly.
See, it helps not to believe all the stuff that philosophers spout.
