This thread is for recruiting cult members SG players. All C3C games will be in 1.22, all RaR games will be in 1.04 prebeta until something better appears. 1.04 prebeta patch can be found at http://forums.civfanatics.com/showpost.php?p=2687194&postcount=65 for those interested. RaR itself can be found in the modpacks forum, if anyone needs a link say so and I'll find one. If you want to sign up to a game, just say so.

I will float 4 ideas to start with, if anyone else has bright ideas they want to play, please say so. Idiots always welcome. First two to fill I will start.

OK

Idea the first: RaR sacrifice game. We will win by 25k culture, we will only get culture in our 25k city by sacrificing enemy workers. Level anywhere from Emperor to Deity, depending on team votes.

Roster:

Sanabas
Beorn-el-Feared
ThERat (maybe)
open x 2

Idea the second: RaR training game. Again, emperor to demigod, no variants, simply a game to get used to RaR again, or to learn RaR from scratch for those who have never played it. Other interesting RaR games include Sana 01 (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=116283), Sana03 (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=122117), Bez1 (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=114186), and multiple LK games. Interesting reads, Bez1 was a whole lot of fun to play.

Roster:
Sanabas
open x 4

Idea the third:
C3C, Demigod, no science. I don't think I've played a no science game, so why not try one.

Roster:
Sanabas
open x 4

Idea the hang on I've forgotten what finger I'm up to:
C3C, Emperor, training shaped game. Will simply play the first start rolled, with everything random.

roster:
Sanabas
open x 4

Idea the fifth:
Your idea goes here.

I'm Interested in 2,3, or 4.

I'll definitely still play 1 if you decide to go with that. I haven't played RaR in quite some time though, but I'm sure I'd be able to catch up on it again real fast if needed.

3 or 4 would probably be most preferred. However, I'm in, regardless of what you choose. I'm on most days and nights.

1 and 3, maybe 4 are interesting, but you know the issues people have with time and 5+ SG's :rolleyes:

I am interested in number 2 but could we go for a higher level of play, say Deity?

Maybe. I would need to be convinced that all players are capable of playing deity level. i.e. they are at least partly familiar with RaR, and that they have game basics like MMing, trading, early expansion, etc down well enough to consistently beat say emperor or DG in C3C. I don't mind doing a training game about that stuff, or having it as an issue in a lower level, but I don't want to run a high level game that involves me getting frustrated at basic issues like MM.

I don't want to run 2 trainingesque games at once, so the two games I will start will be the basic, no variant RAR, especially because I haven't played RaR in 12 months and will be very rusty, and the C3C no research. Threads will be started after I have dinner.

They are only an issue if you want to have one of those 'life' things I keep hearing about. Want to sign up for the no research, and just be a 6th on the roster for RaR and take an occasional set if you have time?

excuse me i was only offering a helpful suggestion you should take more care and respect your elders better (Not Happy)

I'd be interested in the 'no science' variant.

I believe our friend leoman meant we should try an 'automate all workers' variant. Not that it didn't feel like spam, mind you (especially after seeing the automate all workers spam he did elsewhere), I have to say that after reflexion and translation, he was offering inquisitively unharmful thoughts. My .02 on this is that we've tried it before in Who1 and it wasn't that enjoyable; you always somewhat feel left on your own by your workforce.

About time, the SID game died in the egg and if I refrain myself from playing those XOTM things, I'll be just fine. Looking forward to get working bears and bunnies happy together in the greenest of forests.

If this is a Emperor Traning Game (C3C 1.22) , I would like to join. :)

I'd be interested in #2, and if #4 was either Demigod or Deity, I'd try that too.

It probably will be, but I'm only hosting two at a time. DG Luddites, and return to RAR are the two for now, we can do this one later. You might want to join up with the RAR game anyway, it will probably address a lot of the same issues (trading, MMing, etc) that an C3C training game would.

Rosters are:

DG Luddites:

Sanabas
Bucephalus

Beorn-el-Feared?

Sounds good to me. But I think Ansar want a non RaR game.

when you start a RaR training game.... count me in.

sure...I could try RaR... though Im only Monarch player, so I am probably not suited for these games. :sad:

Sana's Angel: Sanabas, don't automate your workers! They will do stupid things!

Sana's Devil: Listen to leo! It will ruin your game!

Sana: Angel, you're right.

Leo, that is spam because you misspelled everything and made beastly grammatical errors. And we don't know if he's older or younger.

And maybe we should try the Human AI variant.

Have you start already? I hope not, cause I'm interested in #1 and 2 (RaR :drool:).
Til now I playey Emporer and won normaly a bit late, cause I hate war. In the games I fought because they declare war on me (Not a good idea, when I'm technological advanced :nono:). But on Demigod I never came in the position to be advanced :( . It's more the opposite, cause military and diplomacy is not my favorite. So please teach me a bit.

But now I'll have a look at RaR 1.04. My last version was 1.03.

I'm interested in #4. It's the first SG for me, so I'd like to have a go with it, but maybe I need some advice.

@PaGe & frrosch: I've got two games running at the moment, so I'm not starting another one at least until those finish.

Hey! I wouldn't mind being in on any of the SG's you might be doing in the near future. Send me a PM if you start any up that happen to have an extra space. I know plenty of people have asked already so it might not happen but I'm happy to wait my turn. :king:

Im interested in 4 as I havent played an SG before and am currently trying to upgrade to Emperor.
Everything randoms fine with me and therefore I dont really mind what the settings are.

I definitely want to do number three if you still have room.

I haven't played a succession game before, but would be interested in the fourth idea there if it goes ahead.

What about a game where we can only use Communism, but from 4000 BC? Maybe giving the AIs all governments and religious trait/making it a higher level and giving them more unit support if they go with democracy.

I'm actually interested to see if you can win with Chiefdom as your sole goverment.

I'd also participate if you begin AWM OCC RAR.

Who can beat DocTS?

How about - never build a worker, but play as the Mayans?
