[NO PLAYERS] Lurking and Mapmaking PB55

[GeneralKilCavalry]

Of course Commodore borders Gavagai, the guy he wanted to border even less than Superdeath. The start looks like PB39 on steroids, but I don't think that the rest of the map is going to be that lush. Is the final(?) version of the map available somewhere?

I didn't think anybody would try to replicate the lushness of PB39, but BadGame Pitboss 13 could be pretty close or even lusher.

I'll post the final version when it's done.

I think that's majority agreeing with the previously agreed to rule set, making it also the currently agreed to rule set.

Team Lewwyn if these rules don't work for you and you plan to leave the game, please do it before picking, so the replacement is not locked into your choices.

So passive-aggressive I love it

This game is going to rule.

So while we wait and enjoy the fireworks that happen when the infinitely offensive (Jowy) meets the eternally offended (Noble), let's punch out a quick list.

Neighbors we'd like, from best to worst:
1. Ruff_Hi & civ2ac -Ruff is capable of turning out a good game. Unfortunately for his play, he's more interested in finding bugs, setting little challenges, and investigating esoteric topics than he is in optimizing victory. Definitely can eat.
2. Jowy- Rusty, offensive, and weirdly cautious, Jowy has shown himself to be a fine economist but a hopeless general. Definitely can eat.
3. AT -AT isn't a bad player by any means but he signs up for too many games and doesn't attend to them closely...see his hilarious recent spate of posting game updates in the wrong game thread. -Definitely can eat.
4. Amicalola & Miguelito & Mjmd -I really like these players as people, but they're all fairly new. Newbies are potentially toddlers with handguns, but I feel pretty confident in being able to out-tech and then out maneuver this crew, with the newest as the head player. Probably can eat.
5. Lewwyn & Gaspar & Noble & Brick -Old and rusty, emotional, and prone to easy offense, I'm not sure this group can keep together well enough to last the whole game. If they do, though, they are a bunch of really excellent old hands who used to be pretty good at Civilization 4. Probably indigestible.
6. Superdeath -Murder-suicide king. At least it's resolved fast?
7. Gavagai -There is no victory. There is no death. There is only a long, dull cold war where nobody profits and nobody escapes.

So you're telling me to swap jowy with SD, and amicalola with AT for a game that will maximize salt levels? It's almost worth doing it

Lewwyn needs to up his game here...

[Bobchillingworth]

Also voting to deliberately swap players for maximum drama. Do it and I'll even delete all of the incriminating posts for you!

[GeneralKilCavalry]

Draw a land bridge across the lake to connect jowy and lewwyn... hm

hm

[Bobchillingworth]

You could, provided it's not too obvious an edit.


Aside from the "Fun" factor, it would legitimately give Team Lewwyn another avenue for expansion, and they're kind of cramped on land otherwise.


That said, I'd just swap Amicalola and Team Lewd, or SD and Jowy as suggested by Satan scooter.

In case it’s not clear I’m not changing a map post-facto to provide a spectacle... if lewpar want revenge they can claim those islands and sail across to harass jowy

Final map. If there's anything blatantly wrong/totally unbalanced/maldistributed, I can correct it. Otherwise, should be good to go...

All my hope is on you charriu
