So-called Boldly Mod. High difficulty. AI gets all leader traits, all UBs and UUs. Where there is overlap on UBs the AI gets a combo building encompassing the traits of the several combined UBs. Think courthouse that is like a SA (frequent whips) that gets Rauthaus discounts and is available at priesthood (Sumer CH things), etc.

Xenu came up with this and plastered my name on it. Could be fun as a cooperative AI game.

Ha ha that sounds like it would be something alright. Hopefully this wouldn't be on Deity. Heck, I wonder how all those bonuses would affect Noble level.

I don't remember what the solution was to several UUs that had the same unit type (phract vs. Camel Archer, etc). Xenu?

I think the long and short is that you'd just want a ton of catapults fighting against this combined UU army.

I don't remember us worrying too much about solving that problem. As I recall we were focused that day on making a beer run and getting out to the beach before we wasted the whole day messing around with a crazy Civ mod. cool

Played: Pitboss 18 - Kublai Khan of Germany Somalia | Pitboss 11 - De Gaulle of Byzantium | Pitboss 8 - Churchill of Portugal | PB7 - Mao of Native America | PBEM29 Greens - Mao of Babylon

Sounds brutal, but definitely makes a team game against the AI more challenging.

Just noticed this thread, and if it's still looking for players I'd be interested. Can't remember the last time I played any sort of team game, so could be interesting. Just hopefully I find a teammate that can help make it so I don't screw up too much. smile
Basically need a teammate that doesn't mind the fact that I don't do all that crazy micro and calculating and super long-term planning. I tend to make short-term goals and spur of the moment decisions....unless I get nudged otherwise.

Well, if there is sufficient interest we could certainly get a game going, but I'm not even sure if the original people who said they were interested still would be. I know I'd still be glad to do it.

So, let this be a second go at it...post if you're interested (or still interested) in playing!

I am still interested in a team game, where we can all hopefully experiment with some silly tactics!
