TSG with G&K - Page 2

Monthar · Jul 01, 2012, 01:13 PM

I just tested creating several games on the Arborea map type. For the tests, I created games with Pangaea, Islands and Large Continents as the landmass type. All three only show that it's the Arborea map script, but not which landmass type was selected. The icon of the map script is always the same icon as the normal continents map.

In these tests it seemed more likely to get a coastal start on all but Pangaea. However, some Pangaea games did get coastal starts. Even on Large Continents I've seen starts that were far enough from the coast to not see any water. I've also seen starts on Large Continents that looked the same as the Islands start.

That gives me some motivation to play around with it.

Actually, 15th of July is very nice date for a GxK TSG. We'll have our practice before it. 2K will probably fix those annoying bugs. Or they wont?)

I went for Maya and Domination (seems appropriate for the year 2012, eh?)

Also, I'd rather have Prince level of difficulty... it seems the AI has gotten a bit harder and king is actually hard for me, emperor would be crazy imho

Actually I would prefer the Tundra map type (described as a well forested tundra), I forget what it's called... Anyways that seems like more fun that just Arborea. You can make an Arborea type map with the right settings already.

I still can't get the DVD in The Netherlands, and the shops can't say when it will arrive, if at all.

Thanks. I'm not a big fan of webshops, but I'll give this a go.

Or saved until December. What better way to earn the Apocolypse Now achievement than on our last day.

Any word on what difficulty this gotm will be?

leif erikson · Jul 13, 2012, 09:56 PM

Don't usually say in advance, but for this time...

It will be King difficulty.
