bed_03 - RaR, Demigod, random civ

[ThERat]

agree, lets finish it off in 20

 

[ThERat]

well, it wasn't exactly 20 turns

save before win

Pre-Turn
ok 20 more to go, but I will only do 10 of them
actually we are at 64% land, why not simply get victory by 66% land, ok will go for that

IT cancel deal with Iro

1.1831AD
declare war, capture Houston and we have 10 tiles to go

IT that must have animated Sioux, because they declare on Celts
get a border expansion and that's it

Edit: thank you all a lot for the experience and Bez's frustration with us not getting him WLTK days

Good game folks. This one helped me to learn a lot. I still like to wipe out my opponents ASAP.
I have posted elsewhere, but I am now almost exclusively playing RaR. I look forward to maybe playing in another RaR with you folks at some time.

 

[Bezhukov]

Yes, good show folks. There were some unique features in this one that made it harder than usual - lack of food bonuses, broken workers, starting next to a civ with a 2/1/2 warrior with an extra hp for 10 shields (what were they thinking?), the extended build costs, lots of disease. And it was still a blast, and a sucessful one at that (of course we did pop 3 settlers from huts!

Given our strung out, large number of cities, non-COM empire, WLTK days were uniquely important in this one. Another area of improvement for the team if worker/food management. Area of improvement for me is paying attention to impending culture loss!


I'm not aware of anyone running a huge RandR if anyone is game. I suggest the Mali for a go.

 

[dmanakho]

With busy RL i've only now realised this game is over
I've certainly learned alot about RaR...
Thanks to Bezhukov and Romeo!!!
You guys have been very good instructors

 

[bed_head7]

Since you brought it back to the top, dmanakho - do the five of us want to give Mali a go, but on a standard map? Demigod or Deity, similar setup as this game.

 

[Bezhukov]

Sounds good. I'd recommend pangaea. Let's do whatever level last game was plus one.

 

[ThERat]

ok, I am in, if you don't mind that I will be back in good old Europe from 6-22th May (well that still some time to go, but you never know)

 

[bed_head7]

No problem. If we're still going then, I am sure we'll manage.

I'll get the thread up plus a start sometime tonight or tomorrow morning. Need to patch first, though. I hear there is a 1.04 out?

 

[bed_head7]

Perhaps I am an idiot. Spent some time looking for anywhere to download the patch, and have completely and utterly failed. So posting the start will definitely have to wait.

 

[ThERat]

it's only a beta, so you need to do some searching, if I have it still saved, will post it here tonight for you

 

[dmanakho]

I am definitely in on one condition - workers are fixed this time around

 

[ThERat]

bedhead try this link

post number 928 has the beta download 1.03

 

[Doc Tsiolkovski]

1.02 has a lot more problems than the broken Workers (like no AA values ); 103beta only fixes the Workers.
Either use this one, or be patient, and wait a couple more days for 1.04 .

 

[romeothemonk]

I vote for patience. I am in, but would prefer a random civ or a militaristic one. I will be gone from May 6-20, but that is for my Wedding and related activities. My time after that may be more limited, as I doubt that I will play c3c 3+ hours a day after that.

 

[dmanakho]

Congratulations Romeo!!!!
Looks like huge changes are coming your way...
Well.. I really doubt you will have any time at all for C3C after the wedding..
It usually takes couple of years before your married life settles enough to allow you to do such stuff as playing Civilization.

But seriously, congratulations again!!!!

 

[LKendter]

Maybe I missed something, but why the talk about being in?
Is another RaR game starting up?

Yep, I believe that's the plan as soon as ver. 1.04 is released.
(just few more days according to DocT.)

 

[LKendter]

What exactly is started for RaR and are there any slots left for this to even be a debate?

 

[bed_head7]

We have all five returning players from this game now signed on. I'd be happy to play with six, LK, if you want. I know that you always play with five in your games though, so if you are one of those who feels like playing with six is too much, then it is too late.

We can go with the same roster, I suppose. I like having Bezhukov play after me, and he did a great job leading off last time.

Oh, thanks for the patch. I scrolled through a bunch of pages in that massive thread looking for a patch, but never got to page 47. Doesn't matter though, I'll wait for 1.04.

Votes for civs:
one vote for Mali (Bezhukov)
one vote for random/militaristic (romoethemonk)
