OK 2 quick things:
1) I say lets let Dank in if he is sure he is willing to commit to the game on a weekly basis. (please read my post in Dank's apology thread if u want my reasons)
2) Still waiting for a rule post. I really don't want to start this game without an all-inclusive list of agreed on rules

This was Sir Francis's opening post for a "Winter game"

Hey all, long time no see. (well most of you anyway).
My summer chores are winding down and I am looking to seriously get another game going for old times sake.
I think we should try to come up with a game that we've never come up with before. Diplo games drag too long, and only several have ever been completed (and that's a stretch). Standard games run too short, don't require any imagination and employ the same strategy over and over again.
I think a new type of game with a set goal, a set end game (other than total annihilation or spaceship), is what we should try to come up with (that is if anyone is interested). Could go straight for population, or a money total. Perhaps first just to reach future technology one? Perhaps first civ to control a set number of wonders? Ideally the game would utilize science, military and economy. It would not be one night affair, but it would also not be a 3 month affair. I think a good number of players would be 4. Enough to have a variety of competition, little enough not to make it drag.
ozzy, deity, you guys would be great of course since I have the most history with you guys, but anyone whos interested let me know.
My optimal evenings would be mondays, wednesdays or thursdays. |
I"ve gone through the thread and decided that these are the rules I suggest, if there are no objections...
* King level to get one settler each
* 1x1x, Medium map (5 players)
* DD’s map settings as per last game
* no barbs
* only take one city per turn
* no alliances
* no invasion cities
* 12 settler built city limit (adv tribes in addition)
* unit cap of 100
* no caravans or freight
* no spies
* no howies
* no tech trading
* one nuke per turn
* win by attached points system
* Game finishes in 1800 AD
* RAH's rules for everything not covered

I prefer a normal game limited to few generally accepted rules.
No city bribe, city poisoning
No diplo screen contact between players (stops alliances and ganging up)
No Nukes?
If u really want to speed things up we could try no
No camels or freight
1x1x deity map size depends on number of players
I like a 1 restart rule (I think it makes it more likely that the game will continue)
RAH's rules for everything else.
Anyways those are my thoughts.
I'll be on around 8:00pm est. Hopefully , we can get a game going tonite.

Rules are laid out, it has a very Classical Eurodip feel with logical extensions. Working on the map now, be a few more hours
4-5 player diplo game.

dank just sent me an IM, basically he can view posts but cannot post so he asked me to post the following for him on his behalf
danklizard: ****......well just post that I'm haveing problems but I wanna play tonite and the rules you laid out look good
so it looks like we have 3 for a "normal game" tonite at 8pm
I don't know about the rest of you guys but I'm not up for premade maps as Zylka seems to be suggesting

Well then you'll have to sit this one out, and that'll be a shame.

well despite what Zylka has proclaimed - I still think that the game rules should be up to what the majority agrees on.
Ive stated my preferences. Dank has read the posts but cant post so he asked me to post his thoughts for him.
He said he would like caravans and doesnt want premade maps. Basically, he prefers the rules I posted but wants caravans. He said he will be on ICQ to disucss with everyone.
I, unlike Zylka, am anxious to hear everyone's input. If possible, lets have all interested players on ICQ around 7:30.
