	What mod shall be used for the next Tournament? Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations: Deluxe Edition

I know I'm getting a bit ahead of myself but why not?

*-never been played in a tourney.

Any discussions about settings and things can be discussed here as well.

World at War because i havent played it that much for one reason or another, nothing against the mod though.

I vote for Call to Conquest but World at War is very good too.

Can someone correct the spelling in the Poll question please?

Done.

I was thinking of starting a WaW! tournament myself, but if some other mod proves to be very popular who am I to veto that?

Any mod except Apolyton Edition is ok, because so far we have for the Apolyton Edition only playtest builds no official 1.2 build. And as working on the Apolyton Edition includes rhules changing, I fear that it could keep us from making changes or posting a new playtest version. At least I don't think it is a good idea to offer new versions during the tournament, except hot fixes.

Thx Locutus. I was hoping someone else would create the tourney anyways. It was a bit frustrating trying to start the last one.

I've actually been playing WAW! alot recently and its definitly a challenge. I find communism to be a bit overpowering though but its still fun.

CTC has alot of cool features too though. The AI is much more focused it seems, and the AI is more proficient with airplanes and nukes IMO.

I would personally prefer that pollution be turned off in both mods. Managing happiness becomes nearly impossible in both mods, and tends to hurt the computers more than the human player.

Heres a map from a WAW game. I have to admit that the AI is performing exceptionally well.

	Suffering from ads?

I'm happy with WAW. Never played it so I'm curious to test it out.

Can I suggest that you try to max out either Ice/Tundra, Desert/Sand, or Jungle. Just for the challenge of having difficult terrain to build and expand on.

I'd like to also vote for more land than water, but lots of islands. I'm in the mood for a decent navy, which I find is usually not required.

I liek islands and navies too, the problem is it will really weaken the AI. They aren't capable of launching a decent over-seas invasion as of yet. Perhaps continents with muliple civs on each one would be a good comprimise, but the map would probably would have to be edited for that. And the AI would still have trouble with that...

I've been playing a SP WAW game, and I actually found it a little boring to be honest...

Why is that?

Did you lose badly?

LOL

No actually I won rather easily. I had it on Hard setting and a moderate amount of water, which was in my favour given the AI's weakness regarding the launching of ocean battles and amphibious assaults, etc.

I think it was mostly tedious. Research was a long time in coming, which I suppose is just part of the mod and time span/years it covers.

It's not a bad mod in any respects, it just didn't seem as fast paced as the others.

I was under the impression that Locutus was going to start it at some point.........

I found it to be a bit easy playing as a communist country...not sure if thats what Shadow did, but the lack of production with a democracy makes it harder IMO.

Don't know about facism...never played as that type of government as it looked like a weaker form of communism, maybe they have better unique units?

Sorry guys, I've been sick in bed for over a week, only had time and energy for the most essential posts (read: Source Code Project and football predictions )

I'm recovering now, so I'll start a new tourney later today.
