haha yeah, I kind of figured from reading this thread that this wasnt very popular - I was trying to make a (perhaps too) subtle joke.
Thats a useful overview. Strategies I would like to try/see how others do:
The violent scientist: Win SV leveraged by conquest (plenty of Civs possible)
The wide-tall: Peaceful SV/CV building a wide yet tall empire as Ghandi. No conquest allowed
I can try and find maps for those two, if that sounds interesting to you guys. I guess both can be a bit "hit or miss", but they will probably end up "medium" or "easy" depending on how ambitious achievements are.
VC will be domination, and I am thinking of disabling Culture Victory since its the only one that can be triggered accidentally by conquering every single person.
No. The AI needs a chance to win. CV is one of their options.Going forward, is everyone cool with people doing this on their maps?
Go ahead and put me down for my favorite civ, the Incas.
How about CV, using Blatc’s Achievement A from his Brazil map?If you want me to put a map up for May 1st, I could use some suggestions on VC and achievements, but I've probably got time this week
Forgive the naïve nosy questions, but do you make a living from diving? Is professional diving pretty much limited to entertaining tourist, or is there a lot more to it than that?we've got a nice storm coming into town so no diving
One question with the CDG games. How much customisation is allowed. Can you create a map and play for say 50 turns to create a more specific game (also using the map editor) and upload the save. Or do games have to start from turn 0.
I was thinking it might be cool to have some sort of fall of Rome or fall of China type scenario. You start at say turn 80 with a large, overextended empire (created with the map editor) which is under attack on all sides by warmongers like the Huns or Mongolia....
You have to then decide how much of your territory you're prepared to give up to hold your core cities. And can you recover you're original empire... Its very rare that players are in a position where they end up losing to warmongers and survive to win.
Sounds terrific to me! Thanks!

I like encouraging use of the UU. So borrowing from the Persia map, that would 3 points for building 10+ Slingers and keeping them alive to end of the game. CV often need the option for violence, so that fits.
And speaking of violence, how about an achievement point for each civ the players kills off?
For Inca, and any of the indigenous civs really, I would like to suggest hand-picking all the Native American AIs and then a couple historical colonists, like England and Spain, as the opponents. Consentient did this for his Spain CDG map, and I really thought it added flavor.
Finally, I will suggest something for the UA: 2-3 Terrace Farms, 1 point. 4-7 Terrace Farms, 2 points. 8-15, 3 points. 16-31, 4 points. 32+, 5 points.

Well, this thread made me jealous. I suggest people that live on a nice Caribbean island from now on should be banned from talking about their real life
Yesterday, it was snowing here in Norway. I was in a traffic jam because of my regularly scheduled hours. Only thing I have is a picture of Belize...
Anyways, I can and roll an India map (seemed most popular of my ideas) for May 15th. I will make a suggested achievement thing on May 2nd, so we dont confuse the discussion with 2 maps at once. If Inca CV is next, I will chose India SV.
Some possible achievements for Inca:
1.Pay 0/<5/<10/<15 gold in tile improvement maintenance at end of game: 4/3/2/1p. 0p if any city you own is not connected.
2. Build/Conquer Macchu Picchu: 2p/1p. +1 point if built in Macchu. +1 point if city with Macchu Picchu has highest tourism end of game.
3. Fun bonus point: Steal land from Spain using Hernan Cortez. (obviously quite a random one)

Carribean... Norway... I got you all beat in the wonderful state of OHIO. I get to enjoy both of your climates. In the same day. Go bucks... We have a beach too, and the water is not salty... (although it probably should be, that stuff'll kill you...)
Looks like May is filled out if that is the case. I like the VC's and achievements suggested too, we've had enough domination for a while. For starting location though, I think the Inca's should get a flat start so that they have to "Run to the Hills". I'll show myself out.
