AVS3: Nuclear Winter

[andvruss]

Specs:
world Size: Large
Land Mass: Archipelago: 70% water
Barbs: sedentary
Climate: Normal
Temperature: temperate
Age: 4 billion
Cultural conversions: on
Edit: I think we should do emperor, but the level is also open to the suggestion of participants.
C3C 1.22 (most recent one)

Variants:

All about the nukes in this SG. We may not fight an agressive war until we build a tactical nuke. we may only fight back when declared war on, and the only cities we can capture until we have a nuke are our own that have been captured from us. Once we have a tactical nuke, we must assemble as many as we need to nuke the capital of every civ that declared war on us earlier. More or less, Modern Age AW.
The reason for archipelago is to explre nuclear subs, and transporting nukes on them.

Editor Tweaks: Hope I don't mess up anything by doing this
Nuclear sub: +1 move
ICBM: Available with Smart Weapons (almost end of tech tree)
ICBM: 600 instead of 500 shields
Tactical Nuke: 250 shields instead of 300, Bombard range 5 instead of 6.

Civs:

Our civ must be a declared nuclear state, so United States, Russia, Britain, France, China, India, or Persia (Pakistan). Our rivals will be all these nations but one ( the one we choose), and all other opponents shall be random.

Not a signup, but I notice you didn't mention what level the game is.

 

[M60A3TTS]

If you're going into the editor, why not bump up the transport capacity to say, 6. Now THAT would be a Boomer! Too bad they don't differentiate between SSNs and SSBNs in the game.

 

[andvruss]

6?
That would be very..interesting, but I want subs to play a more prominent role, thus keeping the transport capacity 1 to encourage the builds of many of them, not just a couple of 'uber-subs' in large stacks.

 

[grs]

Not a signup, but Persia = Iran - hopefully not a nuclear power yet ...

 

[Ankka]

You forgot Korea from Nuclear countries (North Korea )

If this is Emperor or less, I'll join, if over, too high for me.

 

[Ankka]

I've never used nukes so this might be fun.

 

[andvruss]

I found the delcraed nuclear possessing sates here: http://nuclearweaponarchive.org/Nwfaq/Nfaq7.html

Ok Ankka, your in

 

[Ankka]

I have been playing lately with almost all of the declared Nuclear states...

I'd like to play Korea, I never have, but if you insist on a declared nuclear state, my situation is this:

United States > no really keen on this, played an SG just a while ago
Russia > playing an SG as Russia
Britain > Could be...
France > Not played for some time
China > Played, not realy interested in this
India > Played SG as India
Pakistan = Persia > played the most of all, please not this

The suspected civs:

Israel > no civ ingame for this... unless we go for Sumeria, Abraham did leave from there and the people of Israel were his descendants (sp?)... a bit far- winded though
Iran = Persia > no thanks
North Korea > I'd like to try these out
Libya = the Zulu? > maybe


BTW is this C3C or PTW or vanilla?

 

[grs]

Libya = the Zulu? > maybe

This SG seems to be a complaint about geography classes

 

[Doc Tsiolkovski]

Libya=Zulu?????

Wow, that's way off. Why not Arabs, if you really want Libya?

 

[Ankka]

The Zulu were the first African civ I thouhgt about.

Arabia sure would be better for that.

 

[andvruss]

I don't want to be too speculative, so I think we should go with the declared states, unless all participants want to play as an suspected state.

 

[Ankka]

The only suspected one I would like to try is Korea, on the declared ones I think England would be nice, we'd get an extra movement for the subs.

France would be industrious, though... both civs have a UU that really isn't good at the time we start warring, but I doubt that really matters.

 

[andvruss]

I could completely edit the UU's for the modern age but I wouldn't know if people would want that or I could do it successfully.

 

[Ankka]

I don't think that's needed...

 

[andvruss]

Hm, 1 member in 3 days. I thought this would generate more interest........

 

[Ankka]

Perhaps you could post a start?

Oh, wait, we don't know who we are gonna be...

Too bad if this won't kick off, I've never gotten to use a nuke in Civ 3...

Did you advertise this in the Succession games Registry? Perhaps you should.

 

[alerum68]

Not a sign up, I'm in to many SGs as it is. But I'd suggest Korea as a civ. Played them recently and their stats are great for a space race. SCi and Com allows you to be up on techs fairly quickly with good trading. Is your best choice since you're whole goal is getting to Nukes ASAP.

 

[SuperFurry]

Am a demi/sometimes deity player and am comfortable on that, would like to join if you would have me - if not it serves as a bump cos this looks interesting.

other than that you might get more players if you say which game - vanilla/ptw/c3c - this is on, just have vanilla/c3c here.... and would much prefer c3c/emp/demi if I was to be accepted. C3c always seems a more finished game to me - preferred civ2 over civ3 till then tbh.
