The Next Game - DG IV

[Makahlua]

Oooo. Rome might be fun from an RP side - not to mention the legions could roll over our neighbours earyl on and then we'd ahve to use differnt strates to keep on in the alter game (no leaning on Berzerkers heh.) Is ROme weak enough for Emperor
??

[Spiffor]

I say we play... BRITISH!

Seriously, the Brits have two traits we never used in a demogame (seafaring and commercial); they have a naval UU that is not that weak in Conquests; and it could be fun to have an empire with colonies on several continents, that are actually functional and not crippled with corruption.

But the Brits remain one of the weakest Civ of C3C, despite Commercial being a strong trait. I'm pretty sure the game could be interesting, and fun from a RP perspective

That's where I was coming from as well. Rome as RP, and maybe we try to duplicate one of the more progressive forms of Roman government.

Yes - Rome and Emperor level works.

But the Brits would be Ok as well. But we need to get Liz out to get some sun.

Um, why not a Conquest?

Maybe either one of the Native American civs or the Dutch [weakest European power] in Age of Discovery at Demi-God?

Rome

[GodKing]

Standard size map.

[KuriousK724]

let the legion re-conquer the known world...

[Makahlua]

Heeeey. Have we considered and alternate history type thing? Play Rome on Earth I mean, and let a CMN tweak an existing map (Kal-EL's perhaps? not elmencey, that sucker is -huge-) ?

Just thought I'd float that idea in - has a DG ever done and earth map?

[BigFurryMonster]

A C3C single-player game would be perfect for a Demo Game: we can learn from it to better serve Apolyton in the multi-player C3C Inter Site Demo Game.

I too offer my mapmaking services! As you by now know, I have gained some experiences in making challenging and fun maps.

You'll never know what to expect from the automatically generated maps, anyway.

[Paddy]

well said

[Spiffor]

Well, you can always expect this:



Emperor level, huge map, archipelago, 16 civs, play as the English

[Paddy]

that looks ugly

Rome

Why am I not surprised, ChrisiusMaximus?

Yes, the more I think about it, the more I like the idea of it being Rome.

And maybe a custom map as per BFM's suggestion.

Yes. The grid should be turned on, of course.
