FFH Sucession Game

[Ichabod]

I just started a FfH Sucession game in the forums and I'm lloking for people interested in joining.

Haven't decided all the settings yet, just that we'll be playing using Erebus Continents and with "high to low" option on.

Here's the link: http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=397761

Hope you guys like it!

High to low is great isn't it. What could be better than taking over a civ that hasn't even settled yet after 50 turns?

I would not play at high to low
I get involved with my people when I play

Well, of course high to low isn't easy to play, but there are ways to avoid getting yourself in hopeless situations. Tech gifting, destroying the weaker civs before getting to the top of the score, getting permanent alliances (normally I play with PAs on when playing high to low).

Of course, there may be times where there's nothing you can do to win the game, but most times I have a lot of fun playing it.

In the end, it's a matter of personal opinion. But if you want to give it a try, I'll gladly welcome you guys (interest isn't very high, you know )

When I try high to low, I invariably end up with some civ that has basically done nothing all game. And someone that I've never met in the past. Someone who has settled where there are no resources. i.e. played as stupidly as possible and has no chance to come back.

For me, high to low is not fun - and not because of 'hardness' of play - I would rather prefer to play on Deity with additional challenges, if I wanted a very hard game. I just do not like the idea of changing civ during the play...

And, I agree that it is totally matter of preferences.
I hope you will find players wanting to participate, Ichabod

High to low can be funny, but you need to play at low difficulty level (prince ...)
