CG1: Monarch Domination Variant

[cgannon64]

This is my first SG, and I hope you like it.

Civ: Persia
Map: Small Archipelago
Type: I think Warm/Wet/4 billion/80% water

Now, here is what makes this game a variant. Every civ starts on the main island, but you CANNOT attack them on the main island. You cannot destroy improvements on the main island. You cannot raze/capture any cities on the main island. However, on the outer islands, anything goes.

The only victory condition enabled is Domination, which you have to get by controlling most of or all the smaller islands.

Note: I will not be playing this game. I want 5 or 6 players, then we start.

Here is a shot of the start:

 

[Erik Mesoy]

Hey, check Epic... ummm, Seven, I think, over at RBCIV. That played like this one, only it was 1on1 on a tiny map. No attacking the home island of your enemy.
Check your map, are there enough islands to reach Domination without attacking the main enemy island?
Small map with all enemies, 'pelago, I kinda doubt it.

OBTW, I'm in. Upload the game.

 

[Lt. 'Killer' M.]

I'm in, too!

love Immortals

 

[cgannon64]

Yah, I think I subliminally got this idea from Epic Seven.

I was planning to do an SG, an archipelago, when I got this map in the editor. I noticed that all the civs were on the mainland, and I got the idea, without realizing that it has been done before. Whatever.

I'll post the game later, I'm on my laptop right now, which doesn't have the file. I think I should have made it Emperor, might have gotten more hits, but its too late, becase I stupidly deleted the Editor file. Oh well.

Oh, I forgot to check if it has enough islands to reach domination. So, rule change:

You can ONLY attack enemies on the mainland if you control EVERY tile on the outer islands.

Forgot to add this:

Erik Mesoy: Will start first (20 turns)
Lt. Killer: Will start on Deck (10 from now on)
3rd: Open
4th: Open
5th (not mandatory): Open

 

[cgannon64]

I finally got the PC back from the clutches of my brother []. Here is the save:

 

[cgannon64]

Forget waiting. Erik, you can start now, then Killer. If Killer finishes his turn, and no one has come yet...I'll decide whether I'll play, whether we'll do a 2 man rotation [] or whether to wait for more.

Good luck Erik.

 

[Erik Mesoy]

20 turns?
Right.

 

[Erik Mesoy]

4000 BC: The mighty city of Coneria is founded! Too much influence from FF and from the being emperor Conon . Pottery pops from the hut. Research started on CB, and the worker heads to the bonus grassland. I spot a green border in the fog.
3750 BC: Warrior built. He heads NE to seek out the Green People. I start another before settler.
3700 BC: Contact with the Greek People. For Masonry and Pottery, Alex gives us Alphabet. The warrior heads north to seek a good location for city 2.
3600 BC: Dyes spotted!
3500 BC: The borders of Coneria expand! Red border spotted to the north. Rome contacted. He has Warrior Code, but not Bronze Working. Alex has both of those techs. CB in 2- can we make a trade there?
3450 BC: Shat. Rome has Bronze Working.
3400 BC: Warrior complete, settler started. I realize that there is Incense to the south!!!
3350 BC: A zulu scout comes down and meets us. Shaka has Warrior Code and CB.
3000 BC: Warrior Code discovered, Settler built.
Send the settler somewhere. I see three options:
SE SE SE E of Coneria, this grabs the incense. On a small map, this is half the worlds incense!!
NE NE N N of Coneria, grabs the dyes and sits in the jungle. We are industrious, hint hint.
NW NW N N, is coastal but get no special resources.

Ouch, not being able to attack them until the outer islands are controlled will rally hurt here.

[Lkysam]

Count me in if there is room.

 

[cgannon64]

OK, new lineup:

Dredd---->Up now
Me---->On deck
Lkysam
Erik
Lt. Killer

Dredd had 24 hrs to confirm, 48 to play.

Yes, this island is really cramped, we are going to have a small core. But who said it wouldn't be challenging?

[cgannon64]

Sorry I just noticed Evincar's post, so here is the new lineup:

Dredd---->Up now (24 hrs to confirm)
Me---->On deck
Evincar
Lkysam
Erik
Lt. Killer

I wonder if 6 is too much...but whatever. I'll have to pm evincar, he probably thinks he is out. Sorry, my first SG started by me, I have to get used to setting lineups.
