Ultra-mega-super-turbo-lightspeed-awesome Succession game

steelehc · April 10, 2002, 22:03

There have been a lot of succession games recently. In light of the defeat suffered in the "succession game," I have decided to start another one. Game will be on Regent or Monarch, with the Germans, on a random continents map.

If anyone wants to join, post here, or PM me, or whatever.

I'd play, but I'm too busy with the Babylonian Sucession Game.

You are welcome over there if no one comes here... Civman2000 has already joined mine.

My game is at http://apolyton.net/forums/showthrea...threadid=46777

Rotten999 · April 10, 2002, 22:57

I'm in for that. I really thought the other game was going to end in victory...we'll win this time!

steelehc · April 10, 2002, 23:14

Welcome aboard, Rotten. Yes, we'll be damn sure to win.

I would like to join your succession game, because our French /read/play/enjoy had crashed a few weeks ago and it looks like nobody is able to play.

Sign me up, thanks.

I'm also coming from the French game, but I won't join this one so far, maybe later if needed

. Sign me up as lurker

, it will be interesting to see what you do with my nation. But do me a favor and don't name a city "Heidelburg" as it's in the game. The correct spelling is "Heidelberg".

Giovanni, traitor, our gang is also up to start a new game...

Metaliturtle · April 11, 2002, 04:59

Count me in, but let's have a plan of attack before we start, because that's where you faltered last time ((22pages is TOO MUCH to read with civman always bickering GRRRR))

You mean Sovy always bickering, right

....I would like to point out that this forum is getting closer and closer to being dominated by sg's, like civfanatics....let's try to keep it to 2-3 at a time...

godinex · April 11, 2002, 14:03

Post a poll, vote for the civ and play in a small or tyny map, is guacala too much units ....

steelehc · April 11, 2002, 16:59

So far we have Rotten999, Giovanni August, Godinex, and Metaliturtle.

I think thats enough. Each player gets 15 turns, in the following order:

Steele
Rotten999
Giovanni August
Godinex
Metaliturtle

Civman2000: Whats wrong with SGs? You are/were in two of them...

Nope, you always bickered about him, when in reality, had you continued the military expansion you would have had a win,

also, to declare war with less effect on rep, do it in the diplomacy screen right when they are all "get out my town biznotch afore I smizzak ya one"

As far as the SG domination, I must agree wit you, although I never go to civ fanatics, I would much rather read stories than SGs even if you bickering with Savoy was moderately entertaining

civman2000 · April 11, 2002, 21:35

OK, I'm not gonna argue with you about how if we had been more peaceful we couldve developed our core and possibly gone for...oops, too late!

Just for everyone, but espescially godinex, I am not good playing warmonger on the difficulty levels higher than warlord, I don't have the patience, please sue for peace unless there is like a gigantic army of us guys going to whomp on thems guys.

I do believe in bloddying noses though, so if you are whooparse at the war, by all means dominate

Why spescially for Me? I'm not a warmongering I love the Cultural victories....

But if we need to figth, figth with inteligence and raze everithing!

Giovanni August · April 12, 2002, 00:41

I'm something about 65% warmonger.
I do love to go after the civilizations near me, enslave and vassalize them. I generally do some quick wars at the beggining and than some other wars every time i wish to. (in my current Roman game I've been at peace for no longer than 20 turns)

But I'm also a good builder if needed to, or if there are no quick wars to do or worse, if our military can not attack another civ.

Sovy Kurosei · April 12, 2002, 00:49

Back guys

Sign me up as well!

Heheheheheh... The War Mongerer is here now

Anyways, conquer any nation, any time, 24 hours a day, 365 days in a year

Stupid Iroquis in the last game... They dominated the whole blooming continent...

BTW, guys, whoever goes first, make sure you find that evil civ thats close to us ( There is one in every game... ) and take him out ASAP.

Also, can we change the rules so we can fix the corruption up a little bit? In the last game, corruption was much too horrid...

*Sighs*

Just sayin that if you can end a war before it's my turn, the game will be much more fruitful.

Metaliturtle · April 12, 2002, 01:53

We should start out with aggressive research straight to republic, (w/possible detour to bronze working) from my strat guide, Germanz are commercial and expansionistic, so this research path puts us with Currency(I think) giving us more of a commercial advantage, as well as Great Library right away.

Also, don't trade techs after we have literature until the Great Library is built, Great Library should be our #1 priority wonder.

once we have republic, we can decide what we want to do, but I've found that the fastest to republic is more powerful diplomatically later in the game.

Turtle: Isn't it Militaristic/Scientific. I'm fairly certain.

I think a lot of war would be profitable, especially as the Militaristic Germans. i'm looking forward to commanding some Panzers!

The problem with a pure builder strategy is you always get left in the dust by the computer, who seems to get too many advantages. We're better off just going out and smashing in heads.

We could go for Republic, though, provided we have the space for earlier developement. If our territory is crowded, than fight for some "Living Space."

godinex · April 12, 2002, 12:03

Ok.
Nº1. Choose a Map.
Nº2. Choose the best civ for the map.
Nº3. Go first for the GL
Nº4. Go for the Republic and Keep it forever.

steelehc · April 12, 2002, 13:46

Godinex, I did choose a map. It just happened to be a random one. I'm sorry that nothing's happened here yet, but I promise I will post a 4000BC save, my 15 first 15 turns, and another save by tonight.

Welcome back Sovy

Metaliturtle · April 12, 2002, 17:20

My bad guys, Prima's strategy guide is all f*cked up for the Germans, You are right about the civ Rotten.

I also agree with the "living space" idea, overseas trade with a large navy fighting wars is way better than your neighbors fighting your ground troops.

P.S. I played Germans, standard, Regent twice to get used to the civ, both times I started by the English, 1st time they traded tech like mad and had everything then declared war. The 2nd time, I was able to overtake their luxury city and cause chaos throughout their remaining 2 cities and overtake those with some archers, unfortunately the "continent" had space for 7 cities (sardine style)

Hey, thanks Steele

You need at least one serious warmongerer in the group, no?

Stupid Iroquis though... We should play a water map though, could be great fun, and make some wonders less useful ( Incase we don't get to build them in time )
