LK Planning Thread

[LKendter]

So I'd say it might be worth considering bumping up the difficulty level to raise the challenge.

I have only completed 1 prince game (RB Epic 1) with a very marginal win. I am not ready to up the level at this time. At some point I suspect I will see monarch.

For a solo game I would probably consider a "small" instead of a "standard".

Based on your comments I am dropping this game to small.


Let me know if you are interested.

My only remark is that the island hopper might be 'too easy' or not 'challenging enough' at prince level compared to the other ones...

The trouble right now is there is *way* too much to explore in the game. I haven't even gotten pass the basics. I haven't touched the maps scripts such as highlands that a lot of players seem to like at the RB boards. RB Epic 3 is my first game at continents.

I'm still interested. We'll see how "small" plays, I think that will mean only 4 opponents. "Standard" in Terra is 20% larger in each dimension than is Continents, so "small" is probably right in line with (standard, continents).

Edit: Just checked ... Standard, Terra is 104 X 64; Small, Terra is 84 X 52 ... which happens to be exactly the dimensions of Standard, Continents.

LK114 fills very quickly, and will be started tonight.

 

[ThERat]

you can sign me up for the hated enemies, sounds like fun.

 

[pindicator]

I'd like to get on board for Hated Enemies as well; if we are feeling truly masochistic we can go for Always War!

 

[LKendter]

Sorry guys, but I was only starting one at the moment. Once two of the current games end, I will bring the vote back.

 

[ThERat]

keep me in mind for that game though, because sometimes the timing is wrong and spots taken fast

 

[pindicator]

^^ ditto above ^^

I'd like to play with TMcC. For some reason, I happen to be good at outside the box thinking, so I pick up on new games pretty quickly (later the tortoises catch up and pass me - never did well at Sid in CivIII, for instance), so I'm pretty comfortable with Emperor/Immortal level play, if you'd like to take a shot. I'd recommend the 1000AD scenario for something fun and different, or the Desert War for some nice modern air/naval/ground warfare.

I'd like to sign up for the most hated enemies game if the team
wants me.No Prince experience only Noble with enough Space,Diplomatic
and a few Cultural wins,all at continent maps from small to huge.
As soon as I've a Conquest and/or Domination solo win I'll move up a level.

By the way,I've nothing against Montezuma.A great ally to get rid of
the tech leaders.Catherine and Alexander are a much bigger pain in the
butt.

 

[Till]

I would like to join hated enemies as well, if you will have me.
In single player games, i have won several games on prince and managed a OOC win on monarch.

As for the civ, i can't stand either French leader. They are almost always advanced enough to be a threat and they backstab relentlessly.

I am creating an LK115 thread so we can start voting on the civs we will face.
