Raging barbs.

Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war .... aw, forget that nonsense. Beer, please. -
I say to Raging Bards as well. After all, there is not going to be a whole lot of growing space with 18 civs.

I don't suggest Raging Barbs, only because there is so little room that it be a huge unbalancing factor - someone would get unlucky and get a ton of barbs, nobody else would. Not as fair as a game with some space (so everyone has to deal with them).
Also, raging barbs is less useful in MP because people build military anyway...

Sounds interesting. How do I play this? I've only tried mp once and it was pretty lame..."An archaeologist is the best husband a women can have; the older she gets, the more interested he is in her." - Agatha Christie

I prefer 18 civs, even if AIs have to be added. The crowdedness is why I'm interested in the game.
AI is affected by the difficulty level of the human player btw. I play on Emperor.Last edited by Maniac; October 21, 2008, 15:00.Comment

This will be a pitboss game. You may want to read up on that first. Basically it is like a pbem game, but instead, you log onto the host's site (the pitboss) and play your turn, every 24 or 36 hours or whatever the predetermined length of the turn is.Originally posted by Traianvs

You probably played a MP game in real time. It is not a mode of civ that I like either. Pitboss combines the true strength of civ's turn based foundation, but with an approach that makes true MP games move relatively fast (realtive to pbem games)
Jump in and give it a try!

My sense is that it is going to be plenty crowded without AI's. Especially as new players keep rolling in.I prefer 18 civs, even if AIs have to be added. The crowdedness is why I'm interested in the game.

12 civs on a tiny map!!

I just started a SP game with 12 civs on a tiny pangaea map with low water level. It IS crowded. I met 7 or 8 civs in the first 4 turns.

Yes 12 is more than enough I think...so when do we start?Comment

Sounds interesting, but it'll take a long time I'm sure. Better get it started as soon as possible."An archaeologist is the best husband a women can have; the older she gets, the more interested he is in her." - Agatha Christie

No, the AI is on Noble at all times. YOU are on emperor (penalties), but any AI's you have are at noble.Originally posted by Maniac

Sorry I havn't posted, I won't be able to start it until around the start of December. If you want to go ahead without me I won't be offended."Comment

Well, since you were the one who started this game idea - I feel that is is only fair that we wait for you to come back in early December.Originally posted by EPW

I know the AI is at Noble, but its boni are affected by the tags with 'AI' in front of them, of the difficulty level you're running.Originally posted by snoopy369
