Regicide

[RulerOfDaPeople]

Like it or not? What do you think about this mode?

I played this mode alot and generally like it. It's especially usefull in the opening turns for exploration. I especially like the animation and images of all the cool little leaders. It's different. It's also great if your goal is total conquest. The only bad thing about it that I've noticed is that sometimes a rival civ will beat you to the wonder you want and more often times than nought it's built in their capital which means you have 0 chance of capturing because you can't take the capital with out killing the leader of that civ thus destroying the whole civ.

What do you think?

I don't like it, but I've tried it a few times.

One particularly memorable game with this was as Carthage. I was invading the Roman isle on archi map, and I intended to keep their cities. But when I took out their capital, everything was razed

No slaves, no cities, no leaders, no elites, no slaves

It's also making a conquest victory that much more easy to obtain. i think I'll just get Tactical nukes and nuke the remaining 2 or 3 captitals in one turn and be done with the game.

It is intended for Multiplayer, to allow quicker games. Face it, the AI doesn't know how to properly play this.

i think I'll just get Tactical nukes

Or just send two dozen swords to each capital.

Is Regicide an option available in Vanilla 1.29f

 

[SuperBeaverInc.]

No, just the expansions

 

[Mr Fahrenheit]

Hmmm. Maybe I should step up.

I just set everything at random and play, cause, y'know, that's life. You don't know where you are when you start.

That said, the expansion pack would offer more scenarios, and a some new civs to play. Hmmm. That and Regicide. Cool.

I tended to aim for the capital when possible anyway cause it seems to facilitate the AI into wanting a treaty and giving me cities.
