Oscillating war... is that where we alternate whacking others? What do we do if we're stuck on a landmass with only one neighbor? How will we "oscillate"?

Oh yeah - count me in for a slugfest...

 

[Ansar]

IIRC, NOW works like you are AW against the first person you meet and stay AW until you kill them, which then you declare AW on another civ and kill it and further...

 

[gmaharriet]

Reporting for duty.

I'm scared to ask what civ and level. Maybe the Zulu at Sid? Guess I'll soon find out, huh?

 

[The 777 Hoax]

You have GOT to be kidding. No Monarchy or Republic, no knights or cavs? I don't think so.

I checked the game settings. We're the Iroquois at Monarch, but it's not a tiny map. It's a standard 70% archipeligo, wet, temperate, 4 billion, roaming barbs. It also has respawn AI turned ON and scientific leaders turned OFF. Our 7 opponents are Germany, Inca, England, Maya, Aztecs, Sumeria and Arabia.

If we're on a small island, we may not have anyone to fight at all for awhile.

The only governments that you would legally be able to have is either Despotism or Feudalism. This will be a challenge.

Um, we just recently finished that 100k game and I kinda think I speak for all of us as having had our fill of feudalism for awhile...an MMing nightmare challenge.

 

[classical_hero]

That solves it then. You will stay as a despot for the whole game then.

Another variant we could consider is adding a "defiant" element for civs we're not at war with.
-No caving into demands (it's rude to demand our cash)
-Terms of peace must be to our benefit (compensation for their rudeness)
- Boot orders (it's our land and trespassing is not allowed)
- No ROPs, MA's, MPPS's, embassies (we won't walk on their lands if they won't walk on ours and we're a proud people so we don't need help)
- if one of our cities is razed we are at AW with that civ until they're finished off and we must raze all of their cities (This would be the ultimate insult. If they raze one of our cities our people will never forget and will raze all of their cities until they're finished)...Moral of this story is don't let a city get razed.

Sounds fun.
