Writing in Gunpowder

[Imperator Knoedel]

Excellent idea, I will serve as a wandering monk, merchant or diplomat depending on the age and circumstances. Additionally I could represent the various AI civilizations in important negotiations.
So, are you playing BtS Vanilla or LoR now?

@Imperator Knoedel
Why I made this suggestion was based on what you've shared at the Chronicles, that is very good, but beyond that your question about the Moons displayed your imagination to a deeper sense, and your Question on Leaders Immortality blew me away. At that point I considered not the Leader but the country, France for an example wasn't France in 4000bc rather the oldest French city was founded by Greek refuges, Gaul and so on. I wasn't going to go into a history lesson anything but realized how I had to use.

Anyway I hope your consider the position albeit a delicate one having no Army or Empire to defend you, so tread wisely with all you'll discover abroad.

I wish you wouldn't have asked that Question.

BTS, this is a major undertaking that may span a new operating system or something else which in theory would be compatible with BTS but LoR was designed for a particular patch

Ok Game LAUNCHED!!!

The only changes made from original Idea is;
Raging Barbaians and City flipping after Conquest (allowed)

I suggest taking a few screenshots to help you in this process and pass the turn on.

Good Luck everyone and Have Fun

A few addition notes
We stayed at "Noble" AI level
The core concept of this game is to thrive as an Empire, you can be as Peaceful as you wish or a "Dog of War" it is up to you!

Writing is not limited in anyway, other than what would generally not be accepted on this Forum.
Writing and turn playing can always be on a separate time scale. Play the turn, take screenshots and send it on and write as often as you wish, as much or as little as you wish. It is up to you.

Edit; I am France even know its not pictured

Yes unfortunately it is BTS, taking note from the gaming gods I didn't want to press my luck. But as I started thinking about it. As nice as LoR is it was created based on this current patch, which is fine if the creator hangs around for support which in my experience just happens sometimes. BTS will always be supported.


So I didn't want to take the chance of one of us in the next year or so buying a new PC and it having Windows 8 or something on it that wouldn't work with LoR

That's sound thinking. It will be just as good on BtS

Mind I think I had a better start last time as I was on the coast rather than inland next to a small lake. Never mind got the explorers out looking for the sea.

My other LOR start was much better as well. I had Marble + Gold + 2 great food resources in my BFC... this one I have 3 resources: 2 crappy foods, 1 military, no luxuries. Although a lot more grasslands, which I guess I need to be happy with long-term.

I also forgot how LONG Epic speed is! This is going to be SLOW moving, but I love it! It's been too long since I did an Epic game!

Yeah I feel ya, my start is no better, I have cows I think I have forests Err can't remember. But I'm on the coast

Epic speed is like looking at your research progress bar and seeing Iron Working complete in 56 turns but once you have it, it's substantial.

I'm going to leave post #1 advertise the game but after that it's about the player/writers so I'm going to convert post #2 into something that showcases
Us, maybe a micro bio, and/or if you've developed characters or topics you'd like quick linked to.

I also asked a S & T Moderator about how Polls work, no response yet though
