C3CDG: Regent, Monarch, Emperor?

[snoopy369]

Also mention barbarian level.

Captains, vote for your teams please.

Snoopy369: Monarch, Restless
Beta: Emperor, Restless
Paddy: Emperor, Restless
Conqueror: Emperor, Raging
Aqualung: Emperor, Rest/Raging

So, Restless + Emperor win the day.

Emperor. to make Luxuries more needed, worth the effort of settling them, and maybe even worthy of a war. At regent, nobody needs luxuries.

Barbs.. mm. raging, to make them even bit of a nuisance.

I hardly think that's the case. The difference between regent and emperor is only 1 happy citizen (3 vs 2). It's more corruption, than starting happiness. (Of course I suppose the higher trade revenue makes it easier to have luxury levels higher, but I still hold that the happiness issue is nearly moot.)

Emperor has only one content face. The rest are all unhappy...

[snoopy369]

I'm sorry, I was misspeaking. Both Regent and Monarch have 2 born happy citizens, and Emperor has 1; i was thinking of when the first citizen gets mad.

[snoopy369]

The specific differences (from the editor):

Regent: 2 born happy, 200% barb bonus, 90% OCN.
Monarch: 2 born happy, 100% barb bonus, 85% OCN.
Emperor: 1 born happy, 50% barb bonus, 80% OCN.

(All have 1 citizen quelled by military and 100% corruption level.)

I suppose if some part of each of these things is desired by everyone, then we can mix & match, it's easy enough.

I'd rather see 2 born happy, at least, because emperor in that sense will slow the game down quite a bit (higher lux slider amounts early on). We're making a lot of changes to try and speed the game up - why nerf that now? Perhaps Monarch is a good compromise ?

Emperor.

Babs - restless or raging

Micromanage and build Courthouses, you lazy sods

I don't doubt that Team Babylon will be both restless AND raging, given its contents. However, I was asking for the Barbarian setting ...

You never know. Maybe it is all smoke and mirrors....

Team Babble On votes for Emperor and restless. (but raging is Ok as well)

Sabre and some of the others convinced me about the Emperor setting.

[snoopy369]

What, you're not going to give me a chance to convince you back?

Emperor / Restless
