Many Leaders Game - Discussion Thread

[pawelo]

You mean everyone will choose before you Zargon ?
Good luck with Sitting Bull

 

[Zargon]

Hah. Well, I still get to pick before at least 4 people (since I assume the presence of only 12 names on the list means 4 already dropped out.

Even getting last pick on MLG4, I still got Mansa Musa, a leader with great traits, even if the UU and UB were worthless, so I have no worries about ending up with a bad leader, but I'll still put off deciding so I don't have to come up with a list 12 names deep.

 

[pholkhero]

if its delayed, i'll definitely play ~ i'll make it my next Emperor's Council game

i'll post tomorrow with a leader ~ will be going completely Random

 

[Swiss Pauli]

I'll check back in at the time. I've signed up for SGOTM6, and have a few SGs and an RB event on the go, so I may not have time for this but we'll see how things pan out; if time permits I'll play.

 

[pholkhero]

I'm going to go w/Gilgamesh, and a Pottery-first gambit

 

[Zargon]

Is Gandi still available?

 

[Cabledawg]

Sign me up...Randomnize me.

 

[Ralph_Jackson]

Is Gandi still available?

Looks that way, noted for your preference

Cabledawg you are in and randomized!!

I will prompt people tomorrow evening for choices of civs (for those who haven't) so we can start at the weekend.

Ralph

 

[Swiss Pauli]

Continuing with the civs I've rarely played theme: FDR, Darius, Hannibal, Vicky, Justinian, Hammurabi (in that order) would be my preferences.

 

[Zargon]

Since I'll be gone starting tomorrow, I'll add a few alternates. My choices are Gandi, Lincoln, Frederick, Peter.

 

[Ralph_Jackson]

Ok MLG 6 Emperor Spacemen Will roll later this weekend with the players and chosen leader up tomorrow night.

If it's ok with you, can i have Charlemagne? No bonuses from being charlemagne or the HRE towards space which is why i'm choosing him.

 

[Ozbenno]

Ralph, you've got a Mansa either side of Elizabeth in the leaders list. I might actually get my #1 choice as well!

Noted he's yours

Well spotted now edited to Zara

[GreyFox]

Thanks for reserving a spot for me. However, I am sorry, but I don't think I will have the time to commit to another MLG-type of game in the next few months.

 

[Ralph_Jackson]

No problem GreyFox



Ralph

 

[TriviAl]

Certainly got the tension/curiousity going for me.

Cheers Ralph!

 

[Bindamel]

I'm going to pass on this one too, I'd like to get involved in a more traditional succession game or two, and playing the MLG games just eat up too much of my time.

Thanks for leaving me a spot though!

Hey now all ~

I know MLG6 just started, but I just wanted to get the idea out there and percolating your minds. I'm going to be sponsoring/hosting/viciously, tyrannical despoting MLG7.

Right now, many, many things are up in the air. The only thing i know is that its going to focus on compaing the Specialist and Cottage economies (one is no cottages, the other will be cottagespam), and it'll be on Normal speed.

Level: probably Monarch (but open to discussion)
Map: not sure right now ~ I want something that doesn't favor one or the other ~ maybe a small lakes map??
Victory condition: might leave it open for you to decide.
Variant Rules: always peace? agg Ai (would turn it down to Prince for that)? maybe no tech trading?? i'd like to hear other peoples thoughts on it.

This won't be starting for about a month. Since 6 is starting during the start of Capricorn, look for MLG7 around Aquarius (jan 21 ~ and, if we want to keep doing this, perhaps it should be a monthly or bimonthly thing??)

 

[Ozbenno]

Oops. I just realised I need to change my leader for MLG6.

I would say Monarch, normal size. Lakes would be OK.

With a no-cottage rule for SE, is there a no-specialist rule for CE?
