View Full Version : LK - pick a game

It is time to start LK42.

I have 3 ideas in mind, and will start the most popular

1) Mission Improbable:
Emperor Always war
Previous Deity wins MANDATORY
Previous AW experience MANDATORY
These will NOT be negotiable.

This will play with the first reasonable start. If I start with a poor position such as another civ found the first 10 turns, jungle choked capital, etc it will be a false start.
We must get a decent start to have a chance.

==================

2) Everyone loves us.
This will also be emperor with the goal of a 100K-culture win. This is the only win I haven't had. We can't declare war EVER including spy activity since that probably causes. No MPPs allowed, but alliances are valid. We do have the right to refuse demands, and demand to leave territory. As soon as the AI will negotiate peace, we must accept. If we have an alliance, we can't take new cities after the AI offer.


===================

3) Good old-fashioned 5CC
This time at emperor plus (30 discount to the AIs)

===================

Pick the choice of which one you will play.
Don't list a choice unless you plan to play in that choice.

Put me down for #2. 100K Cultural is also one I haven't won at and would like to give this a try.

Be seeing you...

Lee, I will play in any that you need a player in. Just don't start them all at once.

I suspect it might be #3, as I know another player who loves 5cc

Would like to play a 5CC but that difficulty is too hard for me to handle. Good luck!

Hmmm...

To many current games out there?
2 days and no more then 3 for any game.

I will leave this open a couple more days, but I think the Emperor always war won't happen.

Hotrod,

You can do it man. I have watched your play, you are ready for it. 5CC is a perfect way to get your game up to the next level. You get all the MM that you would have in a deity game but you only have 5 cities to worry about. To me it is actually an easier game thatn AW. Yo did well in LK37, I think you could do well at 5CC even at emp lvl. Of course the final choice is up to you and Lee.

OK, I'd be available for #1. I'm pretty used to not using the AI for much of anything other than target practice.

Thanks for the confidence boost Meldor. If you need a fifth and decide to go with the 5CC, and Lee will have me then sure I am up for it. If it fills up and I fall out thats fine too.

Damn, I was trying to lay low for awhile, but I really love the 5cc. Count me in for that one. I would love to try the always war scenario at emperor as well, but I can't show you a deity win as I've really never tried...unless you want to count about 200 deity wins on civ2:).

Cartouche Bee...perhaps you would like to join Voodoocat, me, et al in Cannon Fodder 2 (CF2) which is going to start fairly soon (well, as soon as we can finish CF1). I have followed your play in the GOTM and am most impressed with your results.

@Lee: Sorry to intrude on your thread...
