Btw.,

This requires a great deal of trust by a player to give up control over his game, but the payoff in enjoyment is great. Be careful how the election is handled however. Ballot stuffing and election fraud is as possible in diplogames as in the real world. In History of the World 2 when the Mongol player (me) held an election, the Australian player (Deity) used multiple log-ins to manipulate the results and elect who he wanted.

Did he admit this, or are you just insinuating?

It's a bit of an exageration but as in the real world my civ role did participate in some election-engineering

one point to reaaly stress is the subs ozzy. to make diplo work you need subs and they have to know diplo style to take over. a normal civ2 player will get bored with just playing a session and this will create its own tensions in game. hotw2 was almost ruined a few times by subs, and even the latest hotw 4 has taken a big hit to the diplo style by latest session. i also beleive subs should never do more than one civ throughout game , can be temtpoing to setup first civ to attack with second.

Fortuantly i managed to undo the damge done by my sub before he attacked me.

I left strict instruction to build defence and he did none, he elft me exposed near his next civ and tryed t ouse that agaisnt me. forutnalty i was able to survive his inept first attack and the game will now return to order.

Update

I added 7.8 on flag, name, and city customization.

merciless bump @@@@@@

to keep this near top....

[OzzyKP]

When I tried, the ship's moves counted down that first turn, and then next turn its' ranged moves reset. So it showed the number but the range had no affect at all. I don't get it. But if you wanna discuss this, go discuss it here: http://apolyton.net/forums/showthrea...hreadid=102001

I think I've tried that before in a ww2 scenario....I had german submarines that had the range value entered in so they could cruise for x turns before having to return to port. But in the end I think the range figure didn't exactly have the effect I wanted. What exactly did your experiment come up with Ozzy?

Interesting notion. You mean by creating ships and planes with helicopter ´abilities´?

[Rasputin]

me likes the idea of needing to refuel the modern ships once they rely on engines no sails or rowing. that would make the navy more realsitic
