LK Planning Thread

[sunrise089]

Starting to look like all talk for the colonial Portuguese.

Going once...

I'm sure you can finish the first trip through the LK series with a bang LK, but you're starting a game in a very crowded field. Several other games just started up, as did a SGOTM, and the Apolyton demogame is also starting. Maybe give it a few weeks? Heck, I'll even sign up once one of my too-many games comes to a close.

 

[Jabah]

LK, I could join your new game if you still want me (but I won't be upset if it doesn't starts immediatly).
(If you select archipelago and monarch, the challenge will be more being able to deal with our expension than being challenged by AIs, but coul be fine anyway).

We can debate changing the difficulty if we get 5 players. Outside of wonder building, emperor doesn't seem to hurt water maps to much.



LK142 start up -

Difficulty = monarch, map =possibly medium and small, standard size world, civ =Portugal, speed = Epic
This will complete all the civs are least once.

Let see if there is enough interest to start this one.

Variant: The colonial Portuguese.
We must win by domination mainly with colonies.
If there is enough interest I will open a LK142 thread to clear up the details.

Due to the bug with colonies, HOF for BTS is mandatory.
Previous BTS win at monarchy required.
Remember the use of the BUG mod is prohibited due to its destruction of the in game log

Hi LK, Jabah,

If you'll have me, i would like to try joining you. I have some experience with SGs, but nothing recent.

EDIT: comfortable with monarch, usually always play with HOF mod because i like its features even though i don't play games for the HOF.

No, not a signup, unless there is no interest and you want to break the "Must have won single player Monarch", and it's better you don't do that.

 

[pigswill]

I'll volunteer to take a slot (as I kind of suggested the variant in the first place). Playing a few SGs at the moment (and a shadow of your Emperor game which is going fairly well (up to 1500ad) though quite different to yours). I'd be happy if this didn't get off the ground for a week or so.

It is slow going, but we finally need just one more to start this. I suspect the people that won't mind a few days delay will get there wish. I will initially be opening up the thread just to vote on the final details.

 

[Immaculate]

There's three different types of medium and small maps: massive continents, normal continents, and snakey (sneaky?) continents. for this game we might want to consider the snakey continent so we can make more use of the naval aspects of portugal (UU & UB)

Once I get the game started, we can start talking about this in detail. I want to confirm that 5 people want to play first.

 

[Shadzy19]

Il join in , never had much experience with these kind of maps so will be a nice learning experience.

LK140 is close to ending. At most, I have one round to play. It is time to vote what you would like for LK143. At this time I haven't picked a civ, or map type.

The possible games are
1) Generic emperor

2) True cultural win, monarchy
We may never turn up the cultural slider (including wars). Our culture cities may not build culture. Our first three cities must be our 3 culture cities.

3) Democratic civ, monarchy
All actions must be voted on by the team, with the current player breaking ties. Military wars, troop movements, answers to a random event, and worker actions don't require a vote. Anything requiring diplomacy, win type, city placement, etc require a vote.
Yes, we must vote for map type and civ.
A constitution will be established for baseline to follow my initial turn, and any player can propose an amendment before his turn.
Sample constitution:
No worker weirdness such as cottages on dyes.
Refuse any requests to adopt a religion.
Cave to demands for cash.
Cave to demands for non-monopoly tech.
Izzy is the odd one out, refuse all of her demands.
Refuse any request to join a war.

4).All hail the machine, monarchy
All attacks on stacks and cities outside of our borders must be with bombard units (catapults, buckets, etc.) until a bombard unit can't attack. Only then make human units attack.
We must win by domination.

Why not a shameless copy of LOTR26 at Monarch?

Because that variant has ZERO appeal for me.

 

[LKendter]

4 ideas and so far very little response. Is there a particular variant people want?

 

[sooooo]

I think you've offered up too many variants . People don't want to sign up for a game that has a 1 in 4 chance of actually starting.

Just chose a game you like the most and ask for sign-ups. I'll play generic emporer game if/when that gets started.

That could be possible. I will drop democratic civ, as that IMHO was the least interesting idea.
