PBEM9 - Ruff Spoiler Thread

No input on civ / leader choice.

From a lurker perspective, it would be fun to see someone play the pathological liar. Lie about anything and everything. If someone is stupid enough to trust you, abuse it.
I have to run.

I've selected India because you cannot go wrong with fast workers. The type of game that we are playing hasn't been decided yet. I like the idea of the liar and that is possible in a NTT game. The only downside is what happens when I break a NAP? It'll trash my RB reputation. I guess I could make it look like I agree while (technically) I don't. I would also have to give hints to the players that I was a liar ... I could totally do that!

Breaking a NAP wouldn't trash your reputation as long as you set down in your thread that you are going to play the liar at the start of the game.

Maybe you could come up with your own (dis)honourable ruleset!

I could even start the lying process by saying that I will play Elizabeth but actually sending my real pick (Monty) to the map maker.

Hah! I really want to see the liar role-play... I see you picked Mansa Musa, are you still going to switch to Monty?

Also, I will never visit this thread again. (hey, lurkers can lie here too!)

I don't know if you want to make it clear you are lying before the start of the game. Play straight until diplo starts and then they will not be able to prove you are lying.

If you lie about your pick and then they see something else at game start, they will know you are lying already!

I like Mansa Musa of India anyway!

Main thinking on Mansa was that I wanted Spiritual (going to really exploit civic swaps - no having to wait for a GA for me) and Mining (quick slavery). The options were ...

Gandhi
Asoka
Mansa

I thought G or A of India was just a little dull.

Quick mining isn't the smartest choice, it means you won't hook up any food early...so won't have much food to pop. I hope you don;t start with a pig for food tongue

I'll have food tech by the time I chop out my 2nd worker.
