Vendetta 3 - MGE or ToT?

[fairline]

Multi-map: earth, space, moon.

[curtsibling]

Hmmm...Space, eh?

I was expecting to just make an earth map, but this could be interesting!
The earth will only be 50% inhabitable anyway,
so some city space may be may available for Moon real estate.

Obviously the UFA or Eternal Reich won't be willing to share the place!

That said, I may need so help from any ToT multimap people (Tech!) to implement this.

I would assume tranport point to another map can be built like airbases, after a certain advance has been gained...
I will have to outline a bunch of space units too.

And should all the civs be allowed to get there?
I cannot see the scruffy Jihad Coalition getting there...

These are all things I will have to look at -
This could be a long term development - About two weeks! (j/K)



Well, looks like ToT then - But worry not, if I get the time, I might make a MGE 'light verson' too!

[Sarsstock]

Now far be it for me to strike down an inovative idea like combining earth space and moon in single game map. I'm a little concerend though that it just might not be possible using the Civ II format.

My advice would to either make it a strictly moon based scenario or an earth based scenario.

What I was thinking about is a 4-gigamap sized earth

That would be interesting... and large. But then, the city limit will greatly hinder how much you can fill in.

But it will probably mean that your cities will not be as ICS'd as they are now, especially in Europe.

Ok, let´s stop the threadjacking now

[curtsibling]

If multimaps are used, it would have to be limited to the Earth and moon.

Once reached, the moon would be covered in very lucrative minerals.
This will mean a race to battle for the limited amount of rare material.
The trade from such will affect your battle on earth very much.
Also, the earth will be covered in wasteland, limiting city expansion.
The moon too, will have limited areas to build on.

What I need now is ideas to fill those 20 extra unit slots.

And maybe some units from Mr fairline or Mr Panse?

[curtsibling]

Here are the current cities for Mr Sarsstock!

The flags are the same in ToT...

[curtsibling]

BTW:

The civs are as follows -

The Red Empire (Russian)
The Pacific Alliance (Chinese)
The Eternal Reich (German)
The Jihad Coalition (Arab)
The United Federation of America (American)
The Australian People's Republic (Australian)
The Pan-African League (African)

[Sarsstock]

Say Curt, I noticed the old Pan African Coalition flag in that cities.gif as well, are they a civ or does the flag now reperent another nation?

[curtsibling]

Oops! Forgot those guys!



List is updated!

[Sarsstock]

Well Curt, whatever format for the game you choose I'm sure it will both rock and kick ass. As for the flags, to be honest I like the old Eternal Reich flag better, the new tri bar flag looks plain by comparrison.

In anycase, it will be easier to judge when I have all the flags out together.

[Ceteram]

Great news. I went for ToT, because I really enjoyed those last scens in that format made by techumseh, boco and you. Keep it up and many thanx.

Reporting for duty, Sir!

@Sarsstock:
No sweat man, I just wanted to go for something more simple.
You know I am wanting to make the Eternal Reich kind of similar to Kobra Command from GI Joe.
Hence their masked and red-goggled uniforms!

I wonder if there is a more modern or flashy iconic design for these future Germans?

Any ideas?

@Jim:
Greetings, Oberst Panse!
You got my PM?
If you want, we can talk about moon units too!

[curtsibling]

OK - Here is another little sneaky look at some ToT graphic experiments!
