Commemorating my return to the forums, I have decided to make a divine intervention, but not just any DI, a DI on settler where you can mess with me so bad and i still can come out on top. and now for the rules:
Teh Rules
I expect to be effed up in this game. please don't hold back at all.
played ten turns, popped a settler from a tribal village and thats bout it, zulu nation, quick speed
Teh Rules
Spoiler :
I.Thou shalt announce your intentions.
--(Be sure to "got it" so we don't run into continuim errors. We reserve the right to ignore not announced updates)
II. Thou shalt not Intervene if you were the last deity to intervene, and thou shalt only intervene once per waking
--(You may only intervene once per my update, and you must wait for another God to intervene before intervening again.)
III. Thou shalt not reveal the secrets of knowledge or the heavens to mortals that are not AI's
--(No units or techs should be revealed to any civilization if they are not in the current or previous era of the player)
IV. Thou shaltnot use your powers for cataclysmic destruction
--(Remember, less is notmore. Besubtle as apocalyptic as you feel. It is far more interesting entertaining for everyone if you make changes like just tearing giant swathes of ice through my cities than if you form a choke with mountains . Basically, I will only reject saves in which you WB zap me or use the Change all plots to ocean function)
V. Thou shalt reveal yourself to the mortal with grace.
--(Everyone loves a good story, and if you decide to contribute to it, be creative! Choose a name and domain [i.e., Winston, the Sea God] that you govern, even if the characters don't know it's you acting)
VI. Thou shalt be vindictive as you feel like, and thou may halt progress at thou's whims.
--(However, please do not murder other gods stuff)
VII. Thou shalt not be unnecessarily nice to the puny mortal.
--(I do not need a stack of thirty Level 9 Praetorians to win my fights. You do not need to fill my BFC with flood-plain grassland goldmine hills next to rivers. The only exception to this is if you genuinely make me work my ass off to get it, and even then it not ought to be as good as the dream city outlined above.)
VIII. Thou shalt reward him for piety, and thou shalt offer him redemption for his punishments.
--(If you give me a quest and I succeed, reward me! If it was easy don't give me a big bonus, and if it was hard I am going to be miffed if I get another Great Prophet for all my hard work. Likewise, if you punish me, tell me how I can fix it!)
IX. Thou shalt not war with the other gods. Much.
--(Obviously there's going to be some strife between those who would support Ragnar's Conquest, and those who would seek to protect the world from his tyranny. Having said that, Gods are not allowed to reverse the effects of an intervention without waiting for the update after the effects have been felt. This includes quests. In fact, you would do well to leave the other god's quests alone entirely. If you want me to do yours instead, make it more interesting or more lucritive)
X. Thou shalt obey the natural order of things, and of time, and of destiny.
--(There is a storyline going on here. Do try and fit in. Do not take great lengths to completely detract from it. Be smart.)
XI. Thou shalt abuse your architectural omniscient nature.
--(Don't add wonders that don't already exist. In fact you could fill all the cities in the world with Great Libraries)
FAQ
Q: Another God has already edited the save this turn. Can I do it too?
A: Yes, but you may not undo their changes. Take their save and edit it. Also, you may only edit once per turn.
Q: I have this cool idea that only slightly violates your rules, but it's really cool!
A: Just keep in mind I have the ability to reject any save I deem over-the-top.
