Archipelago Pitboss

[yuris125]

Monarch sounds good

I'd favour no barbs, as land-based barbs are not especially relevant on archipelago, and barb ships can be annoying. But not a strong preference

[superdeath]

for the love of all that is holy. No Barbs. Those 4% losses drive me to drink.

Confirming that I'm ok with everything. Thx for discord ping scoots

Let me try to recap settings so we can get a lock here.


Map: Commodore is map-making an islands map, most like a Medium & Small base (https://www.realmsbeyond.net/forums/show...#pid846833). Capitals mirrored potential and general decently balanced starting areas/strategic resources is the general request with less pickiness beyond that. Also this from the OP:

Mapmaker Guidance:
Room for ~13-15 decent cities per player with an even landgrab
Everyone can establish contact and trade pre astro
Some astro exclusive land, maybe 5-10% of total land tiles and resources? 

Bans: FIN, ORG, Vikings, GLH, Colossus, China, Dutch, Portugal


Play Order: Yuris -> Scooter -> Superdeath -> Ginger -> Bing. Turn order TBD. Draft pick will be inverse turn order with NO snake - 5432154321


Difficulty: Monarch


Barbarians/Events/Spies/Huts: Disabled



I think this is all correct. Please verify! There was some ambiguity over Dutch/Portugal, but it seemed to be leaning more towards banning them, so I added them to the ban list. If we can get approval on this, we can roll a turn order and therefore draft order.

Looks reasonable to me. Huts off as well, unless others strongly want them on?

Good catch. Added huts disabled to the list above, as I suspect that will be the preference given the other settings.

[Commodore]

Having barbs/events off but huts on would be a very weird preference list.

[Tarkeel]

Having barbs/events off but huts on would be a very weird preference list.

Yeah. In general I think it's pretty safe to assume huts are off if they're not explicitly listed as on.

[Ginger*]

Yeah imagine popping Astro from a hut, that’d be crazy

[superdeath]

huts/events are basically always off unless its a weird (commodore) game.
