Ooo, run-off voting. I'm down with that. In that case, I'm cool with 2, 3, 1, but ONLY if we find some way to make resources more meaningful. With a huge map like that, it'll be way too easy for everyone to get all the resources. Are there any mods that modify the impact of resources based on population/manufacturing levels? That would be cool.

[Sommerswerd]

Or make them disappear from overuse, or randomly disappear...

Or limit certain resource to certain areas of the map... Like put all the coal in North America and have little or no Aluminum so that you need AluminumCo to get fighters...

Can we play with the NextWar mod? That would be fun.

[OzzyKP]

Things will be tweaked to be interesting and balanced (as much as possible), no doubt. But first we need more players and to decide on a map.

[Sommerswerd]

What is the vote count for the map? Are there any left not voting?

[OzzyKP]

Map options:
1. DoE world map starting at 4,000 BC - 1
2. The full 1000 AD scenario - 4
3. The huge world map starting at 4,000 BC - 2

Just need Black Knight. But we can't honestly play any of these maps with just 8 players. E_T over at WPC said he was interested, but that still leaves us with only 9. We should be aiming for at least 15.

[Inca (DoE)]

Should stick to a smaller region of the world then. I'm still up for the Japan or East China Sea scenario. I can make the map if needed. We could pick up somewhere in the warring states period (medieval period), maybe making it a bit ahistorical with separate Korean and a couple Chinese players.

[Sommerswerd]

Ugh, I am not too keen on the regional Maps. Can't we all just start in Europe and put the rest as AI? Europe conquers the World! Again... Yaaa!

[Black Knight 427]

Sorry I've been mia my wife has been in labor so my focus is all off. I'm OK with whatever the group decides to do to just put my vote where ever the majority is.

[Russia (DoE)]

I like the idea of all the nations put in Europe and then explode all over the world.

And hey, Black Knight - wish you all the best with the baby

[Sommerswerd]

Yea Black Knight congrats on the baby! Best wishes to your family

[Lior29]

I'd like to participate. Can I?

[OzzyKP]

Yup!

[Lior29]

Great!! So, waht may I do now??

[OzzyKP]

We are deciding on what map to use for the game. Either we play the 1000 AD scenario, we use the same map as the 1000 AD scenario, but start a clean game from 4,000 BC, or we go with a world map that is twice as big.

[Lior29]

I prefer the World Map
