This is a replacement thread for Methos' game which he had to cut short early because of time restraints. Now with the new patch out I want to continue where we left off. All the previous players have been pm'ed if they still feel like playing so currently there are no open slots but we might need replacements. Also there will be a spot for Methos for whenever he feels like playing again. Much credit goes to WastingTime for writing up the basics of a PA and thus how to win an OCC CV
Background:
They said an OCC Cultural Victory couldn't be done. They were wrong...
Obviously for a Cultural Victory you need 3 cities and the OCC variant only allows you 1. During the Beta HoF VII Gauntlet it became clear that by using a Permanent Alliance you could actually win an OCC game by CV, although it needed some planning and a different playstyle and in general, was a lot harder than other victory conditions. Thus Methos proposed to make a SG out of it to see if we could pull it off...
The Variant
In this game we're going to try to win by Cultural Victory while playing the One City Challenge Variant:
The Settings
To give us a little push in the back we're going to play on Great Plains on the East side of the map, because this is pretty much optimized for OCC challenges.
Roster:
(waiting for confirmations from all players: 1 slot open for anyone who is willing to undertake this experiment)
