Nobles' Club Bullpen: Sixth and Seventh Cycle

I was wondering if it's possible to have some games with different maps scripts like perfect world or totestra?

 

[AcaMetis]

NC is traditionally for newer players learning the game, so it's good practice to limit the map scripts to ones that are (at least relatively) normal and balanced. That said if either of those scripts fit the bill I wouldn't be opposed to using them.

(Also yes, apologies for forgetting to post a new NC map this week, but New Year's has thoroughly thrown me off my normal day-to-day routine . NC 271 starring Sillyman Suleiman will be put up next week if I can manage not to forget again)

perfect world or totestra

I'm not seeing either of these world script types as options. Are they called something else ingame?

 

[Tecumseh1]

Ahh, they are not bundled with the game. These are user made scripts. You get some beautiful terrain. Note these maps have a LOT more forests and jungle (especially forests) compared to default scripts.

Perfect world 2: has the old world/new world feature with new world initially empty.

totestra: Based on pw2 terrain generation. A LOT of options to turn off stuff like new world.

Hm...I'm not sure about using non-default map scrips for something that is, ultimately, meant as a learning experience for newer players . That said I don't have any issues with the default Terra map script I've used in the past before, could use that for NC 271.

I did not forget ! Nobles' Club 371: Suleiman of the Ottomans is up!

 

[Tecumseh1]

Small suggestion to pin this thread since it has links to all the old games.

A week delayed, again, for reason I can't recall, again, but better late than never. Nobles' Club 372: Montezuma of the Aztecs is ready to DoW everyone .

 

[AcaMetis]

Yes, week delayed again. I swear I'm far too young to go senile, but here we are all the same: Nobles' Club 373: Mao Zedong of China is up!

 

[AcaMetis]

About an hour delayed because somewhere north of 20K words demanded my attention yesterday, but better than an entire week . Either way, Nobles' Club 374: Willem van Oranje of the Netherlands is up!

 

[AcaMetis]

Nobles' Club 375: Roosevelt of America is up!

 

[AcaMetis]

Nobles' Club 376: Cyrus of Persia is up!

[AcaMetis]

Nobles' Club 380: Darius of Persia, after being delayed a day because me working on another project getting a cold and unreasonably messed up because I'm suddenly half deaf in one ear forgets things sometimes, is up!
