Matrix Games Forums

CLOSED: I have the total number of players (5) needed at this point, so we are full and ready to go.

Please comment on the following game proposal. Any suggested improvements? I’d like to see if there is any interest is such a scenario. Thanks.

Project “Stone Age”

Random, multi-player, low tech, shrouded map. Map size determined by number of players.

Settings:
Width = 20 times the number of players
Height = 10 times the number of players
Players = (variable; 3 to 9; AI may be thrown into mix to increase size of game)
Land = 60%
Rivers = 25
Forest = 40
Mountains = 40
Towns = 15
Roads = 3
City Size = 2
Research = 500%
Swamp = 15

Options:
Map Loop (no one gets placed in an "advantageous" corner)
Shrouded Map
Passwords
Anti-Supply
Anti-PBEM Cheat

Full 1st Level Tech is NOT SELECTED

I'm interested [:)]

Interested.

We're full. We are going to run this with 5 players so that turns will go quicker. I've made some changes to the basic scenario which I will PM everyone with.

It probably makes sense to make roads = 0 to get that "Stone Age" feel.

Turn forwarded to IK.

Turn sent back to the top.

Turn 2 sent to ik

This game seems to be moving ok (kudos to everyone).  I am not going to post "turn sent" messages unless we start to get bogged down, as i dont think we need it for this group of players.

I agree. [:)] Does seem to be moving well.

Turn passed on.

The game is moving along pretty well through round 9. This could be a very long game. The score as I see it so far:

Light Realm - 4
Free Front - 5
Human Marines - 4
Reformed Party - 9 (yikes! must be finding some towns)
Fascist Territory - 7

Some thugs from the Reformed Party raided my city of Base. They were repelled and subsequently punished. Unless an apology is forthcoming, this means war!

I didnt realize that peace was an option...

Are there peace action cards as a part of this game?

I think he means peace agreements more than peace status in game.

Just adding a little role playing spice to the game. It is every warrior for himself at the moment, but eventually we'll attempt to make verbal alliances with some of the other players, at least of a temporary nature any way.

It would be kinda cool to have "peace cards" and "transfer PP cards". I don't think you can do that with a random generated game. maybe Deluxe AT will include that option.

You could edit them in but that might negate the shroud for the editer.
