So, folks, I want to set up a 20+ man game, just checking interest, I haven't played a MP game in months and wanted to come back with a bang:) (hey everyone!) We'll check interest for a few days and if not enough bite we may make it a smaller game. But for now.
According to people's wishes, we will be going WITHOUT gem gens (thats CBM 1.6) Age: All (single age mod) Map: Open to suggestions - otherwise defaulting to Glory of the Gods MP version. Turn rate: 24 hours/turn Number of players: 20+? Mods: CBM 1.6, Single Age (as of now) Settings: Standard, no graphs(muhahaha, now Diplomacy will be really interesting), 15 hall of fame. How do you guys feel about a small boost of magic sites in the world? Victory conditions: Last man standing or all players agree Diplomacy policy: Don't lie please, otherwise, play dirty if you want. Players (Remember to give me an ERA as well as nation name!) 1. La Rl'yeh - Xanatos 2. LA Marignon - OSSA 3. Removed 4. 5. EA Fomoria - ghoul31 6. LA Ermor - rtyffg 7. LA Ulm - Kref 8. MA Rl'yeh - AreaOfEffect 9. EA Abysia - Skor 10. LA Caelum - Fantomen 11. MA Caelum - Tollund 12. LA Abysia - Alpine Joe 13. Removed 14. EA? Gath - Dimaz 15. Ma pythium - Skrabo 16. Ma ulm - Hurmio 17. LA man - statttis 18. Ea arco - Apsophos 19. Hinnom - militarist 20. LA utgard - Ishamoridin +? So far there seems to be a lot of folks wanting a magic site rate increase, please PM me with your preference on this, yay or nay, and if yay, how much. Also include your opinion on graphs, i think the majority of those who have spoke up said yes for graphs so far. |
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
Why in the world would you WANT clams?
|
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
TBH, if you're expecting any sort of mass participation, you'll have to play w/out gem gens. If you end up doing so, I'd be interested, otherwise not.
|
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
Well, I guess you can play with yourself, Xanatos.
|
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
it's what I am used to, but I don't mind going without them if thats what people want.
|
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
I dont mind playing with clams - I'd join with LA Marignon
|
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
I'd be interested if you opted to play w/o gem gens. If so, I'll take Helheim.
|
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
The gem gens, while add another layer into the game, isn't a good one in my opinion. It causes lots of useless micromanagement, and pushes everyone to aim for one of those with the nations they are playing, or they will be almost excluded from the late game. Removing them does cause a bit of a balance issue - mainly in the way of missing an earth booster.
|
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
I will play with gemgens, when I return (in about a week).
Without gemgens, its just silly. There is a plenty of games without micro, and lots of wargames with cool different units. I'll play Starcraft when I'll miss zerging, or chess when I'm sick of micromanagement. Remove gemgens, and everyone will be forced to to aim for IMBA fast conquest, lying their *** out to convince everyone not to unite against them. Actually, its more or less a case with gemgens too, but without an alternate way to get more resources its pushed to the extreme. |
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
There's no reason to resurrect that debate here. Suffice it to say that around 80% of the non-newb players nowadays will not play w/gem gens.
|
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
A note to Lingchih, and Trumanator, Please keep your opinions to yourselves if your not interested in playing, I Didn't post this game for you to tell me I can play with myself or that people won't join, as I said in the title, we will go with what people vote for. If you feel so strongly about this that you need to flame someone, cut your wrists. :eek:
As for everyone else, I'll update the thread with your names and nations, and I suppose we will be going without gem gens as that seems to be the popular choice. |
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
Is La Rlyeh allowed? Haven't played for them in MP yet and would like to try.
|
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
Their picked already=(
|
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!

kuritza you still in if hes volunteering to go abysia? in a game this size rlyeh and ermor's natural advantages are not as great, and thats even without considering the diplomatic gangbangs their surely going to suffer.
|
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
No sorry. I am depressed.
And dont even mention diplomatic gangbangs near me. :(((((( Against Ermor, it just doesnt happen. Been there, seen that, got scars. |
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!

|
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
Middle Age Ry'leh if you don't mind.
Its a rare thing when I decide to play a non-human nation. |
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
A huge game *without* graphs?? You may not have gem gens, but you've made all your micro back by having to manage a legion of scouts.
|
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
we can always change it as people want it.
|
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
I´ll take EA Abysia if it can be.

|
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
I agree, not equivalent, though perhaps complimentary, These settings are not set in stone guys, lets get the folks and then decide which settings people want.
|
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
I'm in.
LA Caelum |
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
I'll play MA Caelum
|
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
I vote for graphs on.
Also, how do folks feel about changing the victory condition to "x" capitols held for "x" number of turns? |
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
No to graphs.
Yes to some kind of victory condition, but there should also be the alternative to win through concession. |
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
I'd like to play in this as LA abysia. I would prefer graphs on, and a small boost to magic sites.
|
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
I'm a fan of more magic sites.
I care not for what the graphs do. I've always wanted to play a game with dominion-based victory condition. |
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
I'd like to take LA Jomon please.
Yes to graphs, yes to magic site boost. Agree to "x" capitols held for "x" number of turns, if "x" is quite big ) |
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
Gath if CBM.
LA Ctis if vanilla. |
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
I'm in
MA Pythium |
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
I'd like to join as well.
MA Ulm, if still free. |
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
I'd like to join with LA Man.
Vote for graphs off. |
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
I'd like to play as EA Arco.
I don't care about graphs and am in favor of an increase in site rate. |
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!

The alternative being, just having a handful of scouts in key areas and relying on graphs for what they were designed for: general information. (Which a smart player can manipulate to their advantage, btw - to address the forthcoming complaints of "oh but everyone gangs me when graphs are on"). |
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
This thread started long ago and I have since made commitments to join other games, so I can no longer participate in this one.
|
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
I'd Join Hinnom
|
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
I would like to change my nation to sauromatia and request that we go ahead and get this game started...relatively soon
thanks |
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
Sorry, but I will not be able to participate.
|
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
Due to RL business I am not gonna be able to HOST this game, though I am still willing to play in it, is there someone else who would be willing to take over the hosting duties and get the game going?
|
Re: Clam Shortage? - Big Singleage CBM game!
Does it mean there is no game if no one has time for admining the game?
