I'll make a different topic so that we don't spam the other game thread too much.
I can host. We still need at least one more to go. We can do a threesome but it could get boring unless we'd play on a really small map - or add a couple of AI players to spice things up.
Proposed rules:
- We play v3.14. Get the patch here: http://games.softpedia.com/progDownload ... 23870.html
- No LA Ermor and/or R'lyeh, unless the player who chooses them will promise he'll go for something more elaborate than spamming endless hordes of mobs. Also, I *hate* insanity in this game.
- RP pretenders. I've played one game like that and it was fun. What it means is that you pick a pretender and skill set to fit the national theme, fe. if you play Arcoscephale, you pick one of the titans, boost astral, don't pick drain etc. In other words - such a rule limits powergaming to offer more flavour and variety.
- A cutthroat free-for-all. It means that we don't restrict diplomacy. It means that you can enter alliances and coordinate attacks whenever you want with anyone you want without having to notify your enemies about it. Do note, however, that you also can't trust anyone. Agree to a two-pronged attack and your 'ally' will stab you in the back.
- "Fun" as more important than "win". Try to be innovative and pester your enemies with creative tactics. Do the unpredictable. Send a lone scout named "The Chosen One" in a valiant attempt to rape the enemy capital and laugh as he dies in the first turn.
Propose your own rules, discuss the current ones and say which era&nations you'd like to play. Also, Satori and Mondblut, do tell if you're interested in a game with some AI players if more people wouldn't show up.
Also please tell at what tempo would you like to play. Considering different timezones, jobs, universities etc. I propose that we don't really restrict anything with a small plea that you don't hold others waiting for too long.
