No worries, we'll just slot you last smile. I say we do default game settings and random leader. Continents map. What does everyone think?

Just a thought, but what made RB 1 a Great imho was the off the bat Variant - is there a variant you could put into this game that while not teying to out do the Culumbian Isolationists but make it as potentialy fun to follow??

Sounds good, even though i don't really like water games so much in civ 4, this should have changed for the better in Civ 5 (haven't tried myself yet, since the demo only goes to turn 100). What difficulty though? Considering the AI has been less than impressive in the demo games i've played at King.

In for lurking. You just have to figure out how to post screenshots.

Irfanview is a neat program for converting TGA pictures. It's simple, small and free to download and use. smile

I assume a Succession Game is exactly what it sounds like?

One guy plays 5-10 turns, and then hands it off to someone else?

Correct.

@Darrell - I'm fine w/ pretty default settings.

RE: a variant - I agree I'd be good for thread hit purposes, but can we craft one? Civ4 RB1 wasn't JUST a variant, it was a fun thematic one. We could do "no accepting city state requests" or "no trading luxury resources," but that wouldn't recreate the RB1 flair IMHO. We'd want something more than a small additional handicap.

Well for a game challenge you could go with only manly combat (no archers or any range2+ attacks) because the this is the easiest strategy against the AI.
