Welcome to my next RPC game, Ramesses the Intolerant: Battle of the Builders! These games are meant to be fun and education, with a unique twist on History or our leaders unique characteristics. This is the first of several concurrent RPCs, to be followed by Suliman and Battle of the Philosphers and Hammarabi in Battle of the Warlords. More of this sub-RPC style may follow.
Ramesses views himself as the God-King of the Egptians and demands proper respect. This must be done two ways, through adopting the religion RAMESSESISM and building (or obtaining them by force) all the Great Wonders of the game to honor his Greatness. All these building are a simple image of himself.
And while we prefer to have fun with these games, of course we want to follow a certain strategy here. I plan to wonderspam (as OBSOLETES walkthoughs were although not limiting us to few cities) as many wonders in the capital of Thebes as well as settle all GPs with the exception of using the first GS for an academy. Only farms and mines in this city.
All other Egyptian cities may be developed as we see fit.
Rules:
1)The very first religion that is spread (or founded) in Egypt must be adopted as Ramessesism and must keep all game. Founding other religions are OK, but only religious buildings/missionaries to Ramessesism are tolerated. NOTE: Ramesses may interact normally with other leaders of different religions, there is no limitation on that.
2) Ramses is limited in civics to: Bureacracy/Caste/SP/OR. All the builder civics when available however he may adopt others up to the unlocking tech. Government he has all the options as US seams to conflict with the WS/SSE game.
3) All wonders MUST be controlled by the end of the game. This includes projects, but not Corp HQs or Holy city shrines except the Shrine of Ramessesism which he must have! Thus we are looking at a late game victory.
Selected leaders
Hyuan Capac
Stalin
Roosevelt
Qin
Bismark
Louis
Agustus
Yes, let's see how well our God-King can out Build all those Industrious leaders.
Settings
Monarch difficulty/Marathon Speed
Big/Little map
All victory conditions are open.
Our Intolerant God-King
Feel free all to bow down and worship your KING. And please, leave approrpiate donations at the front door.
And the start
To be honest I planned to regenerate the map until we got a landlocked start, however I got this one to start!.
OK, we are currently on a plains hill so we get a +1 bonus. However, I am considering moving 1 spot west to get on the river and have access to a few more hills. But of course I will move the warrior.
And then there is the techpath!
Ramesses starts with Agriculture and the wheel. I say worker first, and maybe AH, then mining/BW. At that point we shall see what we have.
