DemoGame IV Settings

I wouldn't go with normal. I don't think that would last long enough.

 

[Bowsling]

Yeah, I agree with epic. also, we should have the citizens chose our civilization, it would be generally better.

 

[civplayah]

I agree.

 

[Bowsling]

So should we have a poll for the civilization? or should we just let the computer decide?

So should we have a poll for the civilization? or should we just let the computer decide?

russia or random...

I mean russia would be fun cause we could use a lot of jokes call us comrade, etc. but thats just me...

 

[Bowsling]

well, that would be a poll. Actually, come to think about it, we can have random as a poll option.

I've never played the Russians in a Dgame before, I like the RP possibilities.

 

[Draknith]

Why not be the Romans, and my character's name can be Biggus Dikkus.

 

[civplayah]

Okay, eww. But, I'm fine with anything. Every civ has their strengths and weaknesses.

 

[Vandal Warlord]

Thanks for that mental image Draknith....

I would be fine with many civilizations.

 

[Shnipah]

These settings all sound good to me,

I hope to understand them more eventually after playing since I'm completely new XD

 

[SunTzuWarrior]

I say marathon, epic, and we vote for civ...my personal preference is Cyrus.

 

[civplayah]

Cyrus? I like Alexander. Or Joao II.

 

[Lord Civius]

We were discussing the Russians before and Catherine is a strong leader in advanced difficulty games. I am willing to play with any civ or leader though.

I like the idea of an Epic game, I agree that Marathon might be too much, when it comes to figuring out orders for military units in wartime, or settlement options early game. That said it is possible for a D.P. to end a session early when a significant event has occurred and he feels that more orders are necessary. However we wouldn't want that to happen too frequently, playing a Marathon game 5 turns at a time would drive a few of us off the deep end.

I'd prefer a random civ with a selected leader. I think that allows us the fun of something unexpected, while not allowing us to be really screwed over from the start. Any civ is playable, if a decent leader is selected.
