The Apolyton Empire: Idea Discussion

[Giovanni Wine]

I like the map as well.... and I agree with "civman's classification of it"

I think that the starting era and gov't picked by civman are good.

I'd like to be the Domestic Advisor.

Hmmm, seems my post count is pitiful lol.

Anyway, I'd like to be Admiral Nemesis of the Fleets, if possible

I think I might want to play as a general of a ground army or maybe an admiral. My post count is around 300 or somthing like that. I would prefer bieing Admiral of a entire fleet. I was think maybe we should have some people as the other civs since the computer does stupid things many times, and we could still have the focus on the Apolyton Empire.

I accept the post of Moderator. BTW, will this be a full fledged thing with its own forum and lots of detail or a relatively small thing consisting of a few threads on this forum (perhaps a suboforum for it would work)?

I plan to organize it into three threads for now: Story/Game thread, Discussion thread and the Great Library thread.

as the gamemistress, and as the Foreign Advisor, i will maintain the Great Library thread with the latest map updates, zoom in maps of the Apolyton Empire, various stats and so on. players are free to add to it, depending on their position and role in the game. like for example the domestic advisor can post various domestic related information while the Fleet Admiral of the Navy. people have creation rights base on their roles. The moderator can post various stuff as well, lol

If this game becomes popular enough, i may propose to MarkG and DanQ for its own sub-forum within the Civ3 - Stories.

I propose to call teh Western COntinent The Monkey, our island The Rock, and the Eastern Continent The Alligator.

your the Moderator of the Empire, you can name anything the way you want, lol just to don't expect the other civs to call the continents the same way.

Map is fine. Early-mid middle ages. Monarchy (it invites more revolutions that a monarchy )

I change my vote to mid-Medieval Age then, with Monarchy the chain of the command would be:

-Moderator
-Vice-Moderator (if the mod chooses to have one)
-Advisors
-Military Commanders and the Governors
-and the ranks goes all the way down to the village's idiot.

This means the Advisors obeys the Mod within the game, Fleet Admiral of the Navy obeys the Military Advisor and Moderator (rest of the positions will be taken by default NPCs until someone takes it) and so on.


Will post the updated map with the starting civilizations in the The Apolyton Empire: Great Library.

Well I would like to be a Gerneral then. Maybe once we get tanks I can command a armor division. Mellian I was wondering who is going to play the role of other civs? Someone has to speak for them.

so far, the majority voted in starting out in Mid-Medieval, so we won't have tanks right away. the timing will be one real day equals to one real month, and people can do their story posts anytime between the starting game date and to the current gamedate, as long as it doesn't contradict game posts base on a later gamedate that are already been posted.

of course, if the majority agrees that one real day equals to one game month.

As for the other civs, i rather wait until the game starts and have more players before having people representing them. until then, relations with them will be base on what the players say in the game... like for example, if even one mentions that we were at war with a peticular civ a while back and doesn't contradict past information, it is canon. so the players have indirect control of them anyway.

[Mellian]

one question, what would be the Apolyton Empire's official color? lol

-Mellian

[civman2000]

this color

[civman2000]

-Vice-Moderator (if the mod chooses to have one)

I will appoint almost anyone interested.

This means the Advisors obeys the Mod within the game, Fleet Admiral of the Navy obeys the Military Advisor and Moderator

Note that this obedience is not required. i wanna be overthrown, let's have some intrigue!

[jdd2007]

i would like to be the vice moderator

I just want to tell you guys, for PTW only 8 civs are playable for mp. I dont know about sp, I think you can play all 24 civs, but we will need a really good computer to run the game on.
