So far, a highly fragmented vote, only one conquest with more votes than and that one only has the support of 26.67% of the votes. (33.3% of the non banana ones)

Looks like they'll be a run off with the 0 and 1 vote options eliminated.

yes indeed

-------------------------------------

the first poll was " to be or not to be? "

so shall we continue once a victory has been achieved or finish? was the question...

The results:

Continue 6
Finish 10
Banana 5

-------------------------------------

and now we move on down the list of questions

the second poll Which scenario do we take on?

The results:


The Age of Discovery = 2
Mesopotamia = 1
Fall of Rome = 2
Middle Ages = 0
Mesoamerica = 1
Age of Discovery = 0
Sengoku - Sword of the Shogun = 4
Napoleonic Europe = 1
WWII in the Pacific = 2
= 3 (popular little sucker)


-------------------------------------

Which scenario do we take on? Poll II (this poll)

The Age of Discovery
Fall of Rome
Sengoku - Sword of the Shogun
WWII in the Pacific


-------------------------------------

further questions (which will be adjusted as we go as required)

• which civ in the nominated scenario?
• do we modify the scenario for a better game?
  ie. we did this in the current game... main mod was removing the permanent war between Rome and Carthage
• which format of government do we take?
  ie. succession style we have used in Rome, or other formats...
• what time frame do the governments have to achieve their goals?

other questions to be added as required

Paddy - great pic!

I picked Fall of Rome, as the natural extension of the last game. I would not have to buy a new wardrobe.

ok 11 votes and a very close race indeed.

and none for whatever will Con say about that

A little too much of this "Sengoku" thing in my life lately...

He will probably come around and vote himself.

is that right matey

I would expect you would have a lot to say on mods for that scenario as well

so I am curious, what was your choice?

[Modo44]

Age of Discovery. Mainly because I only played it once, and lost (on Emperor, what a shame...)

[Donegeal]

Whatever it is, have AP on and play at Emperor or lower to make it as quick as possible

Donegeal looks and sees Civ IV on the horizon.

[ormuzd]

the age age of discovery because I have never played it and WWII seems not that much interesting for me

[Micha]

Age of discovery. Have never won it either, so it seems like a tough one to pick on...

yes that would make for a quick game

well the votes are rolling in now... and we have a close race

Voting "Fall of Rome" again, with the idea to be a mod to the Rome Everlasting mod of FoR.

[joncnunn]

Hum, that one was won on Sid level in CFC by the Protoguese.

(They were kicked out of Europe by Spain around turn 60, but their capital shifted to one of their starting one tile island cities)

AI does a slow job creating the structures that allows the tresures to form.

I did note that they also made a slight mod to allow the Irq to be playable trying for a domination win with fall back being 35K Victory Points. (Irq don't have the structures allowing sacrificing workers) Still reading thru that.

I think in any case we'd want some kind of mod.

For the Japan one, in addition, perhaps an extra restriction upon ourselves that we'd never build the equalivent of the UN nor call an election if we aquire it. And plus we'd start on either of the starting smaller islands.

If we went with WW II pacific, [unlikely], I'd call for a slight mod to allow us to pick the Dutch. It's no contest between a human playing any of the four normally playable races and the AI.

Plus the rein of every King would need to be only 2 turns because there are only 50 turns at most in the conquest. 25 to 35 turns is more common.

[joncnunn]

Actually standard AoD is absurdly easy as any of the European powers.

For that matter, there are reports of those who played as a Meso Indian tribe actually capturing a few tresures or a city with tresure buildings intact and bringing them back to their capital.
