Obviously, I forgot China to start without the ability to see resources.

Hmm, guess I screwed that one up. I like the following.
1) Germany
2) USA
3) Aztecs

Not repeating recent civs: Iroquois, Russia and Polynesia
I am leaning against any military civ. I don't want a early conquest and wait around for the launch.

LK, this one I am leaning back, but maybe we could be commercial? scientific? or even religious to keep government change short. I see us going dynasticicm (monarchy), democracy and then social democratic, so 3 changes at least.

I am willing to wait up to 7 more days on 1.04. After that, start with whatever you feel like.
No real preference on start time, may as well start now with 1.01 or 1.03. Tibet sounds good for a civ too.

I have rejected the military civs. I don't want an early conquest and wait around for the launch. I think there will be too much of a push for taking advantage of champs.
Of the list so far I am leaning toward Korea. Lower corruption and science boasters really seem well oriented toward a space win.

I plan to start Korea shortly unless there are any objections.

Good analysis, LK. I've found that religious isn't as important in RandR, as there are so many other ways to get happiness, although short revolts would be nice in the AA. Counselors outweigh all that by a good bit.
On the other hand, I've found AGR to be more beneficial than SCI, as the sci buildings don't cost that much and the free tech effect is diluted with all the extra techs. The main reason I usually play SCI is for SCI leaders, but you don't approve of those, correct?
AGR makes a huge difference in the AA (pay attention to which AI civs dominate, it is usually the AGR ones), with the underrated later benefit of railed deserts supporting themselves food-wise.
That said, Korea would be fun to try out the uber-hwatcha of RandR, and is the only civ that builds both trait-specific buildings (Wisemen and Counselors).

The first from the below to get 5 players will start.
This will be LK99. LK100 is already planned, and won't start until this one is filled.
RaR - 50K.
Level = Deity
Civ = TBD
The map will be a Pangaea
No restrictions other then the target win type.
RaR - 5CCC+
Level = Deity
Civ = TBD
The map will be a Pangaea with NO barbs.
This will be the standard 5CCC+ rules. See LK85 for details. Six razes gives a 6th city, another 7 gives a 7th city, etc.
RaR - Live free and prosper
Level = Deity
Civ = TBD
The map will be a Pangaea
We may never build slave markets. We must research Emancipation and make a serious effort to build Emancipation Proclamation. Our first war that WE declare must be against the civ the build the evil slave market wonder. That war can't stop until the slave market city is RAZED - the wonder is so vile that we must destroy it.
==============================
ALL openings are for experienced deity players
The first one to fill will be the ONE start.

I would like to try the RaR - 5CCC+ game. I thought the 5CCC+ concept a very good variant idea and would like to try it.
I assume this would be RaR 1.04?
