This will be my first variant game I've tried. :) If you've seen the Civ2/Civ3 Demogames (Game of Democracy), that what this will be like (but extremely simplified. ;)).

The ground rules:


Each player will have their own "province" to start with. These provinces (including the Palace Province) will have 5 Forbidden Palaces. (that's 6 total players).

Each player will control 1 'province' as though it were their own civ. Each player will post a build queue. (demogame concept) and the current player will add those queues to the provinces (including their own). Play will resume like a normal succession game. The cycle continues for the next player.

Remember, The 6 areas are one civ (semi-independant), so if one declares war, it's still war for everyone. In PTW, each province can be independant of each other.


We should also decide which level we should play on, as we will be at a distinct advantage. I'm thinking emperor or deity (monarchy at the lowest).

I remember this idea from the demogame, and I'd be glad to play!

Players:

Slot 1: Chieftess
Slot 2: Octivian X
Slot 3: Eklektikos
Slot 4: gunning1
Slot 5: Grey Fox
Slot 6: BCLG100

(game info will follow later in this post. :))

Hmm... looks interesting. Sign me up, CT! :)

so sad that its 1.29. id be in, but of course, im 1.21

i would love to play cept could i maybe have a provionce later on as i do not have much time at the moment

I guess I'll try it.

Ok, BCLG, I'll put you in as a backup. :)

I'm in.

EDIT: Deity would be fun!

EDIT2: We need to discuss what Difficulty to play. Everyone post their vote ONCE, and we'll see which gets the most. I have already voted as you can see above...

Chieftess, put me in as a possible backup like BCLG. :)

I don't expect any of your regulars to drop, but I will be following the game with interest.

I may have to drop at some time, but I don't expect to.

Ok, let's vote on which difficulty. <demogame humor> "This is a council vote. Should we play on deity, since 6 'centers' will give us an edge? Vote yes/no/abstain</end demogame humor>

:D

Ok, I think we should play on deity, or even super-deity.

yes, maybe give the AI some extra Starting settlers and Starting workers. ;)

ah, so this IS a modded game. i wuz wondering where u would get 5 xtra fps from.
also- keep screenshots up 4 the ppl not playing

Yes I'd love to watch this game.

Deity... No way... I'm in favor of monarch...

how about emeporer so were all prepared for the demogame
and who are we playing as

Hmm. Sounds interesting. Sign me up. Please :D

This should be interesting to watch. Make sure to post lots of screenshots.

So, is this on the hold or what?

Who knows... how'd the mod testing go? Does the AI use the extra FPs at all effectively?

so ditto to what GF said

Bad News!

As some probably know from the demogame.. my Civ3 monitor is shot. So, that means I can't play civ3, or even test the mod. :( BTW, I was going to make the palaces as wonders, so only we can use them.

Can you do that?

I think the best way this could work out is if we created a few more forbidden palaces for each province as small wonders, pre-place the province capital cities at an acceptable distance with pre-build FP's , and do the same for each of the AI's.

Chieftess, Planning on doing this?

Are we going to wait for PTW straight out?

So whatever happened to this?
