Just wanted to chime in to say that I like elite's suggestion a lot. When I was new to HOF, I always enjoyed the gauntlets that let me pick a leader the most. It was so much fun to play the same settings with different leaders to figure out who was best for the settings. I hope Challenge 19...

The game can be hard starting out, as it is so different from other games. It gets easier when one realizes that the goal is not to build resource chains and produce everything, but to make as much money as possible and to invest that money to make more money. That means you should specialize in...

Fantastic job, you two! Sorry for being so useless. :blush::cry::(

This is so weird. I suppose, my test game setup must have been flawed. I gave my test AI mids on T0 (they switched to a mids civic t3/4), then gave them a second city and razed their Mids city around T15, then gave them Monarchy a turn later. They would always switch into HR on T29 (unless I...

The only factors I see in the code with regards to the value of HR are number of cities and happiness level in cities. So my guess is that his one low pop city might be too happy to make the switch into HR worthwhile. I don't see a reason why he wouldn't adopt OR/Vassalage/Caste/Theo next turn...

Okay, that *is* odd then. I don't think I have ever seen an AI not switching out of Despotism when they could.

What did you give him on T144? I don't see any tech gifts in the report for T144 What I meant is that he will only switch this turn if you gave him the techs last turn. He won't switch on the turn of the tech gift

List of questions? Hm... 1. What is the plan? 2. When is the victory vote supposed to be? 3. When are we flipping AIs into Environmentalism? 4. Is there a post somewhere with the detailed plan? 5. Why do I feel so clueless? :cry:

I ran a quick test. Forced Civic swaps due to losing Mids don't reset the timer. My tests also confirm that the logs will report AI civic switches 2 turns after a tech gift.

Looks like Stalin's last switch was when he adopted Rep after building Pyramids (more than 25 turns ago). Not sure if the forced switch after losing them would reset the timer, but I highly doubt it.

I'm very, very sorry for disappearing like that. I got busy early on and then never found the energy to get back into this game :blush::blush::blush: Looks like you gave Stalin a bunch of techs last turn, so I am almost 100% certain that he will switch civics ibt. Unless he recently changed...

A standard size Fractal map is 84 x 52

Saves are out. No surprises, as far as I can tell.

Sorry for checking in so late. Busy weekend. I should be able to run some tests next week. Hopefully. Where was the test save again? Should we attach it here somewhere?

This starting area looks strangely familiar... Oh, I know:

Sign me up for Turbo Ants

Part of me thinks you are joking :D

Ah, I see. Haven't read the rules in some months...

But all my tests indicate otherwise. Give me a minute and I'll upload a test game.

We can build railroads in neutral territory.
