Rhye's and Fall

[The Priest]

Have many others been playing this scenario? I've been getting into it recently, and as far as I am concerned - its amazing.

In fact, it does what I have always believed Civ itself should do. You have objectives and victory conditions which are not just about conqurering, being the best etc., but which are far more subtle. You get civil wars - i have been playing at Japan and though i conquered Korea a while back, it has now just declared independence! The historical nature of it also suits me. It is very cleverly designed - once you start you and the AI just play normally, but the individualised victory conditions and some other tweaks mean that nations do tend to develop in the way they did historically.

So have others tried it? If so, what do you see as the good or bad points? What sucess have you had? Is it possible to win at Emperor?

Want to join me in bigging it up?

In Civ III it was excellent. Rhye's and a couple other mods kept the game interesting for me long after it would have been gathering dust on a shelf.

Good to know he did one for Civ IV. When I get back to the Phils I'll be searching for it.

Lancer, its in officially in BtS. No need to look for it.

For the past several months now I have been playing RFC almost exclusively. This thing is amazing. Every civ requires individual completely different strategy. I am most proud of my America and India victories. I had to figure both on my own without online strategy guide.

Most people that play RFC and talk about it are on civfanatics.net forum. I don't remember seeing discussions about it on Apolyton.

I have never won on Emperor in RFC, I do not know if it is possible.

Thanks TriMiro, maybe I will look at the other place.

And glad to hear that you can't win on Emperor either! Emperor is my normal level in normal Civ and I can win often enough on that, but I've never managed it in RFC

[TriMiro]

I normally play on Prince, even though I need to move to a higher level since it has been getting easier and easier.

I have no problem wining RFC on Monarch, if I get the correct strategy. RFC is balanced for Monarch, I do not know if Emperor victories are generally possible. I tried playing Emperor with the Egyptians and I am not sure if it is possible to get the techs for the wonders on time.
