The Next Game - DG IV

[Nimitz]

well it seems that this game will effectively end in the next month or so, so it seems it is time to start discussing what we want the next game to be like. What level we play, at the Civ we are and the other options like geograpgy and number of civ. Also we need a write up for the fron page for the start of the next game. So lets get cracking on this.

Thanks Nimitz

Lots of good stuff out there in our membership..

so we expect lots of posts here, lots of ideas on a great C3C game.

Long live the Dutchies

hey, if it aint Dutch, it aint much

The Next Game Notice Board

Ok, we have start a new round of polls to follow the "Spiffor Plan"

1. Epic game or Conquest? (the most important question)
And once this first questions has been answered, the other polls:
2. With a mod or not?
3. What Civ? (with runoffs)
4. Difficulty level
5. Size and layout of the map

The 1st poll is up:

Epic or Conquest

[Rhothaerill]

I don't know if I'd have the time to play the next game with all my other demogame commitments, but if you need a mapmaker I'll submit my services.

[Nimitz]

yes my opinions on our options are:
Emporer level
Continents
70 % water
large
16 Civs or maybe a few more
And we play as the netherlands

sounds like a great idea to me

[Rhothaerill]

Okay, whenever you guys have decided on the type of map you want then I'll start making it. Give me a week or two advance notice though please. That way I can tailor it to rip your nation in half...err, make it challenging enough to be fun.

cheeky bugger

[Rhothaerill]

Well, just because it will be on a lower level doesn't mean I'll make it easy for you.

[Paddy]

That is what we need to hear

[Hot Mustard]

Definitely not Diety

The Dutch are too strong a civ to play on Emperor, IMO.

I would say these same settings and demi-god, or Emperor with a weaker civ. And maybe a pangaea map. The first game with Egypt was continents. The second arch (I think) with Vikings. How about this one as Pangaea with a weak civ on emperor or a strong civ on demi-god.

And yes - 16 civs.

[notyoueither]

Are you interested in serving as MoI or MoW while playing weak?

Enough weak! Pick strong and let loose the mad dogs of Apolyton!

[Beta]

Yup - I would be up for it.

I'm thinking of Korea. Or Rome would be interesting.
