No, I would say Peacekeepers. The Peacekeeprs can go in any direction. UoP is builder, Spartan is warmonger, but peacekeeper (despite the name) can go in any direction.

So everyone wants huge maps? You do realize then it might take ages before we meet other factions and see some decent military action. If I want to play a pure builder game and don't want to be bothered by other factions, I choose huge maps as well. But I don't think just staying in your own territory and building up your infrastructure will make for an interesting democracy game.

I agree. I think a standard map would be nice. Because then, we would have decent military, diplomatic, and builder action all in one. Would make for a nice demo game.

I'm interested in joining.

I've just joined the Civ 3 Democracy game, and have not played a democracy game before that.

Ah, the heck with it, I'd join too. I suggest standard-sized map. If we're good enough, then by all means go Thinker or Transcend (if I want to run for President I should lobby for a lower difficulty level ).

[Darkness' Edge]

I think a Standard Map would be good.

To get started...we'd probably need about 15, from what I know...

and I'd personally prefer we use SMAC, but only because I don't have SMAX, and then I couldn't hold office

perhaps we should create a signup thread, and start keeping record of who's interested..?

[Mr. President]

Yeah, I think we should use original SMAC too. Who knows, we might even get a separate forum for this eventually!

[Kassiopeia]

Edit: I was the City Planner of the Civ2 Demo Game for the two first terms of the game, btw.

[AdamTG02]

I'd like to add my voice to those who have said we should use standard SMAC rather than the expansion. While I love the Data Angels, this game should be open to as many people as possible.

I also think that we should vote on issues like map size, what faction to select, and difficulty level.

[Alex]

I'd probably would not be able to join, but here go some ideas:

Standard SMAC should be used. Keep the game open, as Adam said. Besides, the original seven are well balanced.

Map: standard map of planet. Makes for a classic game and a more interesting one (huge maps would take too long to find your enemy, tiny maps would turn everything into a carnage).

Polls to vote on the most important issues, like what rules would be on/off, what faction to play, what would be the government positions, how would be the constitution etc.

And pray for a separate forum: it makes things easier.

[Nubclear]

Markos! Please! This has potential! Create a seperate forums! Please! We beg of you.





Well, at least I do.

[Pandemoniak]

I also agree playing SMAC instead of SMAX
But we'd rather play on a big map of planet
