End of Game

and 1 last question ... is this to be to the death or surrender ? i assume it is, our group is going to try to start this sunday..

Alpha Centuri or death is the preference. The PG should only be used if the game goes to 2020 without an outright winner.

Suggested Rules

I think these should be used as the general rules in each game, but if all the players in a specific game wish to make some other choices, that is OK. I suggest you stick with these unless your game has already started or unless a couple of them are objected to by everyone in a game:

Incremental Rush Buying - OK
Ship Chaining - NO
Gifting cities/units/caravans - NO
Hitting wait so a plane doesn't crash - NO
Formal Strategic Alliances - NO
Continuing to build a wonder after its been built - OK
Tech stealing, Embassies, sabotage - OK
Caraporting - NO
Adjusting city resources during a turn to maximize trade benefits - OK
Building an Airbase to increase production - NO
City/Unit trading/bribing- NO

That's how I saw it.
The only stickler was how many trade routes.
Varied fron unlimited to no foreign.

Hey a$$hole.....

Yo Deity, maybe one of the rules should be:

- And if someone doesn't show up because they broke their f*ckin leg we play them as AI and all gang up on them. How about that one sunshine? It seemed to WORK PERFECTLY in HOTW huh?

A$$hole.

1. Capo, please take your argument elsewhere. You're not involved in this. Thank you...

2. Slow, I don't see any reason to make a "Tourney rule" concerning the number of trade routes or the nature of the terminating points. But it is perfectly OK for your group to decide on some restrictions of that if you all agree. In case of a failure to agree, there are no limitations on the number or the locations.
