Oh, and there are 11 evil civilizations.
Have fun

 

[Rex rgis of Ter]

Sounds fun. Have you considerd adding multiple difficulty levels. In my RPC, difficulty level is used as a tie breaker.I like the idea. I was intending my second RPC to be an Elohim with 1 good civ and 10 evil, but you beat me to it.

 

[Mitchifer]

Ooh, another RPC. Tell me, which patch version is the save? Patch C?

Yes, it is patch C. thereby it should also work with D.

New random seed on reload? So save/load method is welcome?
Interesting. I do not like Luchuirp much but their world spell is very nice for strategy so I just intended to try them. And advanced start.

Well, I'd appreciate it if you didn't reload too much. But to eradicate some mistakes I feel that it's appropriate, and even more so if a bug/CtD is discovered.

Well... Up to 100th turn all tasks "before 100" are performed but 4-th one. It's difficult to "eradicate" anybody with "Require complete kills" option. I attacked Auric Ulvin and Mahala and captured or razed all their cities but some units are wandering somewhere. So, it's a problem of luck.

BTW, Tiarilir, when you mention Doviello you mean both of them?

Hm, I guess I should change it to "Control all their cities", or something like that then? It shouldn't be impossible to complete these goals, but some should require a bit of effort.

When I mention Doviello I mean only one of them.

I will probably give even more goals in some days. ^^

It is better to make them contradictory and according to different possible strategies.

 

[Rutee]

I took out the CoE before Turn 100, sorta; I've got a screenshot of all their cities broked, though I haven't botherred uploading it somewhere yet There's a Goblin running around somewhere that I couldn't find, I think. Dunno if that counts, but I'm thinking no. That screenshot should also show my State Religion as Order before turn 100 though, so it'll do some good.

Doviello down on Turn 130 or so. Failed the Golem challenge, or at least, I will, failed the population challenge.

Is Conversion by the sword acceptable? Or do I have to do it peacefully? Also, the way the Hyborem challenge is worded, it would appear that it's in my interest to leave an AV civ untouched until they can summon him; Is that the intent?

Also, I haven't gotten that far yet, but keeping Bannor and Elohim alive seems like a cakewalk. If I'm recalling the map correctly, they shared borders with the Clan and maybe one other person each.

The recipe of victory:

Spoiler :

4 cities + Bronze working + World Spell. Place 4 cities with culture boost. Add techs: Agriculture, Mining, Bronze working. Units: only one mud golem. Few farms and wineries and a copper mine.
On start immediately call world spell. Each hammer turn to the great engineer. Build warriors, research Exploration. As soon as you will be able to connect all cities your warriors will go out with bronze weapons. Make with your engineers an army of cheap and enough strong bronze warriors, attack whoever you like. Gift of Nantosuelta looks overpowered for advanced start.

Turn 89: Order found in my Garduk (1,2,3).

Turn 99: Before turn 100 all cities of neighbouring Mahala and Auric Ulvin are captured or razed but some of their units are wanderind somewhere. (4?)
