  • Demo Game Restart: World size

    Following on from the last poll where we decided which paramters to repoll for the restart, here is the first of the polls voted for: the world size.

    It is uncertain which parameter had the most effect on increasing the length it takes to play turns, but this was definitely one of the top ones. We started last game with a Huge map.

    Which size should we choose this time?

    5 day poll.
    18
    Tinier than tiny: less than 60x60 tiles, down to 16x16

    btw, I've played maps that are 16 x 16. They end up with strange graphical problems when the map is so small it can fit into one screen without scrolling. However, I don't believe this is an issue now.

          Small; let's have a fast game that's over as soon as C3C is released and play a Conquest.

            Togas and I already started to work on a Large Map (130 x 130) for 16 civs in total. This means that if you choose that option, and I think it'll be workable in terms of speed, we can start up the game quite soon.

              Hmm...
              I didn't even realize there was a new demo game starting!

              Maybe you should make a newz item before you start making up any decisions.... That is if you want more partisipants.

                Lots of News Exposure is a very good idea!
