Welcome to my next RPC, and second of a sub-series, Suleiman the Magnificent and the Battle of the Philosophers! These games are meant to be fun, educational, and of course Chalenging.
Suleiman is the grand King of the Ottoman empire and believe me, he runs the show! In fact he hates anything or anybody that takes the attention away from himself! This includes world wonders and Great People, but he is no fool so he sees value in them, to a certain extent. Also since he is Philosophical and thus a Philosopher, he is great at BS (and I do NOT mean Beyond the Sword!). He plans to prove his dominating abilities by going against all of the great philosphical leaders in the game!
Game settings
Standard size Big/Little map
Marathon speed
Monarch difficulty
All victory conditions are open
Preselected leaders
Al
Fred
Sitting Bull
Gandhi
Lincoln
Peter
Elizabeth
Rules
1) Suliman is KING and must stay in the following civics: HR/Bur/Emanc/SP once they are teched although any civic can be run up until then. He has all choices for Religion.
2) Suleiman does not share glory or power, so all GPs must be used immediately to bulb the first tech available, GSpies can only be used for infiltration missions. Any late game GPs that cannot bulb MUST be used for GAs. Great Generals MUST be attached to units and sent into battle.
3) World Wonders may NOT be built but may be captured. Shiney great World Wonders take away attention from his magnificence! One lone exception here, he is allowed to attmpt the Apostalic Palace and the UN.
Let's take a look at our grand monarch!
And the start
NOW that looks like a kingly start! My initial idea is to settle 1 spot west to get the gold in the BFC!
