Locked alliances: Whomp vs. Tubby: anyone else? - Page 3

GMan are you saying no one partners or just you're one partner?

I think a partner could make for an interesting game because a stronger player may have to help his weak ass partner like me. Ebb and flow could be interesting. Just my .02.

A Pangea cage match type thing! I like it.

I am saying there are 3 teams of 2 players. The players on each individual team are in a locked alliance. Then, the 3 teams are in a locked war. iirc, in the editor, you will see that it is possible to setup 4 alliances. Rik probably knows how to set this up.

Also, I am not saying that we have to go with a random map, just that things seem slow in the Mapmaking forum so it might be best if we just get it up and running ourselves as soon as possible.

I may be able to give it a shot. I'll see how it goes with keirador/SupremeCommissar's map tonight, and let you know. I am going to try to knock out this week's Chem and Physics homework by tonight, leaving some time for later.

Keep me posted if you need more people.

Whomp · 04-09-2005, 23:04

Thanks Bed head!
Gman--that's what I was hoping for. Should we have Romeo pick the teams? He seems to know most of players and their play level. How should we pick civs?

Tubby Rower · 05-09-2005, 03:03

random would be fine with me. I've tried to keep my play balanced enough to use any of the traits. Although you know what they say about jack of all trades master of none.

Well I'm more like a 7 than a jack

I am not so sure that I'll have as much time for this as I thought I would, so if you are in a hurry to get going, it may be best to get a random map. If you are willing to wait a week or two, I should still be able to do it for you though.

Tubby Rower · 06-09-2005, 15:26

Romeo, can you randomly (or however you want to do it) select the teams??? Mistfit, Whomp & myself want to beat up on each other. Other than that, I don't think that there are any other restrictions to the teams but try to make it as fair as possible.

bed_head, thanks for your offer and I think that we can wait. Take your time.

Thanks
tubby

Whilst we wait can we talk about the rules?

Things I'm unsure of:
How does trading maps work with locked alliance?
Do we need to wait for the tech?

As a team are we forced into war with the other 4 player immediately?
If we go random on civs and locations how do we insure that we start nect to our partner or is that not important?

Ideas/Requests
I'd prefer to not play on a map larger than standard
