LK Planning thread

[Stapel]

Great LK!

Can you 'join me' in 2 games?

Cheers,
Stapel

Well I hate early GA, but Sumeria it is....
I will start the LK60 thread.

===================

@Stapel - sorry, you just missed for LK60. LK61 should start sometime soon.

Reading the conditions of 'slow moving civ', we are allowed to use fast units within our borders. So we COULD have a fast unit to trigger our AI. I already play Sumeria in one game, but that is not a problem. Any civ is ok with me.

 

[LKendter]

European Epic - Once again we play the Europe scenario, except this time we MOD the scenario to eliminate victory points, make the game length 540 turns, etc to play like a typical game. Yes, that means domination is 2/3rd of the map!


New World - We will play the new world scenario. The game features nothing special.


Simply deity - I have played the following new civs: Portugal, Dutch, Maya, Sumeria, and Inca. It would be one of the two new civs left I haven't played.


Fast moving Civ - The level will be demigod. We can build infantry for defense and can move them within our cultural borders. All fighting outside of our borders must be by speed 2 or greater units. Infantry armies would stay inside our borders. It would be one of the two new civs left I haven't played.



Coming soon: The monster map is coming back. Time for a new LK World map game!

Not a signup, but a suggestion - the unlockable civ of Austria with a 7-3-3 cavalry UU might work real well for Fast Moving Civ.

 

[Aggie]

I'm interested in Fast Moving and Simply Deity.

Simply deity: I've played a lot of Byzantine games and like something else for a change, but it IS my favorite new civ. I haven't played the Hittites yet.

Fast moving: The Celts and Iroquois are almost new civs (agricultural) and have fast moving UU's. I like the Austria idea as well, but I have played them before in RBC6 or 7.

Like Aggie, I would love to play in the Fast moving, or Simply Deity, but with preference for Fast moving.

I am hoping I can get revenge upon the Medieval nations trying Rus for a Conquest win.....

I will take Pencil me in as any game.
I will give Stapel 24 hours to answer PM. If no answer by then - next person to express interest will start fast moving civ...

 

[hotrod0823]

Fast moving as Austria sounds interesting.

 

[Chieftess]

Pencil me in for any one (probably Europe).

 

[Stapel]

Count me in for fast moving.

Really appreciate this LK!

Time to pick the civ for tonight...
Can anyone explain "unlocking" Austria and the possible problems...

 

[Aggie]

It is explained here and I had no troubles:

Austrian SG

EDIT: the info is at the end of Charis's first turns.

Look at MLDR004 for possible problems. We had no UU and twice things were missing from the Pediaicon.txt.

Here's a post on the RB board with more complete info:

I don't think this came out quite as Meldor intended. We got our Hussars in MLDR04, after some manipulation of Pediaicons.txt, and they were great fun to use. But we weren't allowed to build tanks, presumably because the Austrians were considered to be occupying the Germans' slot in the game, and the Germans build Panzers (which we didn't get, of course) instead. So if you use the Austrians, pay attention to which civ they seem to be replacing.
