  • Level 3 for me, but a minimum of level 2 is acceptable to me.

    To MFC.

    Edit: I forgot what level 1 was. I would prefer -- verge on requiring -- voluntary disclosure of combat. In other games i've had problems that I had a scout unit out that I forgot about, particularly in a game that had a slow-down. I play a lot of civ games (not as many as Paddy but more than a couple) and it's pretty much a given that, unless a game is moving really fast (which thankfully this one is, for now) i'm going to forget what's going on to some extent -- as will all of us. A simple note of "Hey, I killed your spearman", followed oftentimes with a "Take That!", is acceptable to me -- but I'd like the notice.

    Con, I understand what you're saying about an accounting game, but what you did sign up for is a strategy game, and it's not possible to play a strategic game without knowing how the military battles turn out. Otherwise you're playing a builder with the random attack-from-afar. The only way I see it being ok to play, particularly a TOURNAMENT game, without reports is if the FoW is turned off.

    Now THAT would be a fun game ...

    • Here's what's been updated in the first post:

      IC e/e point 1-2 and the optional clauses, in effect for this game:

      1-2 Players shall not exchange in-game information until they are represented on each other's foreign advisor's screen. They shall not exchange graphic map information before both have knowledge of Navigation.
      a) In diplomacy without an embassy between the Tribes, a player may only offer technology already known by their Tribe. They may not offer or ask for unknown techs.
      b) Players shall not coordinate military action unless an alliance is formally declared in the foreign advisor's screen.
      c) Players shall not make reference to specific distances or directions until both have knowledge of Map Making.
      d) Players shall not make Mutual Protection Pacts or Trade Embargoes unless they are declared in the foreign advisor's screen

      Combat Reporting: Level 1> Passive
      A summary of combat results is required to be sent to the defender if, and only if, they make any sort of inquiry soon afterward.
      ['soon' should allow for a few turns to realize a unit is missing, but could only be one turn cycle for simplicity if the attacker insists.
      I've found the 1-2 stuff is easy enough to adhere to if you minimize the content of emails until you have an embassy, and base all substantial discussion on what happens in the F4 screen.

      Sorry about the Combat Reporting; level 1 is the compromise needed because con is lazy and he sucks...

          • I am back now. Sorry for the delays. I should have been able to get more turns out while I was out dealing with my family issues, but the phones had not all been turned on in the new house. I have a little bit of a rat’s nest to deal with at work today but should have my turns caught up overnight.

              To bad about the laziness. As a Controller you can probably guess where my vote would have gone.

                            Actually my sessions with my boss usually concern how much leniency my staff gets. As long as the work is done.
