I was thinking we (fellow succession gamers) could set up an original game. This thread is to plan it. Some CIVs have been played a dozen times in an SG. Some victory conditions are more popular that others, also. We should choose one that's not as popular. I was thinking we could do a CIV that's never been played before along with some sort of crazy variant... Post your thoughts!
 
Perhaps the Zulus on a Tiny Sid map? And AW?


not a sign up, I'm full scheduled... with SG's, that is. ;)

Thats even more crazier that my 5CCC on Sid that I had going for a few days before I put it to an end. Good idea though.
 
That would be a good challenge. Has there ever been a wonder victory in a succession game?
 
A victory point game isn't common...as it almost forces you to play where you start. And for a real twist, the game could be with the *hidden* civs. Heh, I have to look them up...
 
A totally random Sid game (including game size) has never been done. You could redo huge if that is too big.

One idea for a sillier game: have someone mod the map so every landsquare is next to a volcano. This can be done by cutting the world into 3x3 squares and put a volcano in the center making the land 1/9th volcanoes. No city would be permanant (volcanoes erupt fairly infrequently), but in risk of going poof.

I calculated that if you wanted to try pangea AW with all 31 civs you want a 240x240 map. That keeps the civ density consistant A win at monarchy would be impressive. This game would be long and interturns would be slow (Not as bad as AG3).

I would consider joining if I wasn't in quite so many games already. :(
 
Haven't we seen several of those SOTD where the players become 'more powerfull than we can ever imagine'?

I like the idea of a Sid game with EVERYONE on a small/tiny map.

That would mean around 15 CIVs on one tiny continent... :crazyeye:
I didn't want to start a crazy game, just an original game.
