GR20 - Genocide AWE vs 30 Civs (try 2)
- Thread starter Greebley
- Start date
It is a function of the map size and having so many towns.

Entertaining and impressive reading.

Good game all. Any civ preferences for the Demigod game?
Mayans might not be too bad.

great effort from the whole team. in fact it felt easier than the monarch game.
as for the demigod game, we need a real good UU and the Mayans are great for that, so I agree. But since we are genocidal, the enslavement might not be so great after all....

Do you have to be genocidal on the AWDG?
I was thinking an non-genocide game for demigod.
Genocide+Demigod sounds really hard. We got a great start this game, but the next may not be so kind. IIRC, I called this start "almost too good".

Yes, all the variables broke perfectly for us this time, but still, exceptionally efficient play by all. 
We've played the Mayans fairly recently (remember all the puns on "pan"?
), but that's less important than maximizing our chances at demigod, so that choice is fine with me.

The slaves will be a bit help as workers are always an issue. Is Smoke agri + ind, I forget.

lurker's comment: How about this...You can enslave barbarians and keep them, but if you enslave a major civs unit, you destroy the slave. After all, barbarians could be considered as uncivilized, only fit for menial labor. If you don't get the benefit of your UU, then that would make it even more useless. I suppose playing the no unique units option would be the other possibility, that no one has UU's. Or would that hamstring the AI's too much?

The Mayans are fine with me if that's the plan.
I will likely start the next game this weekend.

I'd like to fit in a round over the weekend, so if you could put me second in the rotation, that would be great.
If you'll excuse a doubtless unnecessary reminder
, no barbs, please. Goodie huts just help the AI beat us to the GLib.

True about huts, but it won't matter in AWDG, humans have almost no chance to get the GLB. The huts will speed them into middle ages and that is very bad.
Pikes and Knights will be harsh, while using AA units.
