Okay Ive abandonded the old thread due to my posts becoming buried in lots of other posts.
I hope that it serves its usefullness and helps people to move forward to setting up other games which I may be interested in signing up for myself
Please do not post here about any other game settings you are interested in, this is now where I hope to get confirmations from those who want to play this game and to then set up a game accordingly.
There is most likely no other space in this game subject to players confirmation of there interest.
Here is the list of names that have posted to the old thread in order they posted.
1,ChrisiusMaximus (Confirmed)
2,Modo (confirmed)
3,smellymummy (Confirmed)
4,snoopy369
5,Beta (confirmed) Egypt
6,Conmcb25 ?? ( Not playing)
7,Earthworm (Confirmed) Carthage
8,1889 will let us know in a few days (confirmed)
9,Ljube-ljcvetko (confirmed)
10,OzzyKP
Ill hold this open for a few days so please post to confirm but remember that the top of the list still gets priority even if they confirm late
Ill update this periodically
OK well we certainly have more than enough interest here for two games, please also see snoopy's thread
Obviously only 8 can join any one game so as I said its first come first served here, but snoopy's thread still has room for a few more and Im waiting on confirmation from Conmcb25 and 1889.
Thanks for all the input from everyone with ideas suggestion etc
What I want to now do is set up a game to play using the diplo faq idea as a basis for the game play but without the restriction of the no eliminations idea.
As stated by Ljube any leader who warmongered too intensley would likely suffer the wrath of the other nations which should balance out warmongering and probably stop eliminations from happening, I particulary like the idea of colonial posessions dicussed in the faq in that they can be used to buy back core lands from a victorious enemy after a war and I feel that wars should be limited to goals and not to wipe out a civ completlly.
But the only way to fully police this is for all other players to use diplomacy effectively so as to contain a renegade states aggression.
I will use a huge random map for early game discovery etc and plenty of room for colonies etc, with archipelogo and most land settings. Ive played maps like this a few times and it usually gives plenty of single civ sized island and plenty of naval choke points. Would setting a limit on cities be possible ?? is it possible to limit each civ to a specific number of cities, that would make colonies a neccesity in the later game and prevent domination and conquest which I want to do.
I agree after some thought that VP locations would be problematic but still only want the more builder style victory conditions on ie diplo culture and space.
I would need help with the editor if we do limit cities etc Im useless with it
So I need confirmation please of whose in and also please post your civ choices and your preferences for the map etc and the other things ive raised, then ill progress to setting up the game with some help from someone.
My original thread is here
Which is now full of different ideas and suggestions making it impossible for me to stay in control of the thread hence this new thread.
So far the only setting im insistent on is that the map be random!! all other map settings are open to discussion
I want this started by the weekend so please confirm asap and give you preferred settings civ choices.
