  • Another Succession Game?

    How about another Succession game? Anyone?

    I'd like to give people who haven't played in one before a chance to play, but also include anyone interested, depending on the level of interest. Perhaps a couple of games.

    The poll allows you to vote on size of map and # of civs.

    Suggestions for Civ would be grand, as well as anything else of interest settings-wise...

    Okay, we've started. A few notes:

    * Each turn is 20 turns to begin with, and when we hit each new era 5 turns come off - so when we hit the middle ages 15 turns each, industrial revolution 10 turns, and modern era 5 turns. This change takes place at the beginning of Player 1 (ie me)'s turn - it's up to me, more or less, to figure out when we're close enough to that era to change the turn numbers. Usually it goes 2 rounds before we change to 15 turns each player.

    * Use the F8 screen to see what turn it is. Save the game either before hitting "spacebar" for end of turn on the final turn, or just after hitting it, without any moves, on the next turn.

    * Please post at minimum a screenshot of the map of the world, or at least our part of it. More posts are better.

    * Please try to let everyone play their own style. You're expected to play the game when you're in charge to the best of your ability, but you can play any way you want - understanding that the rest of us will do the same.

    * Email your turn to the next player, so they see it, as well as posting it here, so we can all look at it if we want to.

    * Finally, have fun. That's what we're here for.

    Hello Snoopy.

    Voted for a Large Pangea with few civs. This should give really well developed and big opponents to boot (or to be booted, it depends ). For best carnage available, give it 60% water, and try restarting until you get a location in the middle.

    I'm in a couple succession games already, so I'll step down if new players want to join.
    Seriously. Kung freaking fu.

        Hmm... the fascination PBEMers have with Pangea, I'll never understand. I never play them myself other than PBEM But if that's the will of the group

        And who voted without posting ??? (Too bad you can't make it mandatory to post before voting in a poll!)

          I don't know about PBEMers, but I like the Pangeas for how difficult they are in SP, especially with a central start.

            lol

            I guess i'm more of a builder. But then you have players like my girlfriend who don't know what "peace" means - literally is never at peace with anyone. (Of course, she plays at Chieftain - but still)

                Oh I would like to play in this game.

                Maybe I won't get bumped from this game.

                I voted for Large Continents w/ 12 civs.

                  Hey, I didn't want to bump you ... but you disappeared! Feel free to jump back in the AU mod game, though ... we only have 4 players without you still...

                    I would prefer to use the AU mod.

                    Hopefully this game will take off.

                      This game is not an AU mod game, but like I said, feel free to jump in at the end of the turn cycle in the AU mod HUGE successor game. Link is in the master list in my sig if you forgot it ...

                          Hmm... modo, paddy, myself, lmtoops, and .. skrobism

                          Sounds good - i'll start it up tomorrow.

                          Paddy, are you going to be able to play? It seems your problem is only on some games - is it size related?

                            Hmm. I can't tell what people voted for, but it looks like Large map wins 4 to 3 ... continents 3 to pangea 3 to archipelago 1, which hmm, i know i and lmtoops went continents, modo went pangea, hmm. 12 civs and 16 civs also tied at 3, but with a large map 12 civs is the default winner since 16 doesn't fit well.

                            Well, it's my game to start so i'll break the tie with continents i guess Starting shortly, will post a screenie

                            Modo, i have GIMP, but i can't paste a screenshot in it! I have to paste into Paint, and then save, and then reload into gimp. Is that normal, or am I dumb?

                              I figured it out btw Starting up now. I'm going to wait to post until i'm sure i modded things right, so hang in with me I'm going to save at 20 turns but keep going until i have mapmaking so i'm sure my galleys can go where i want them to

                              i modded the sea part to be like AU mod - curraghs take 2 to go into sea, and can't go into ocean - but i'm not sure i fixed the rest of them to work ok with sea 1 move.
