Anyone up for a BC PBM?

**Zim** · 02-21-2008, 21:20

Hello. I've been thinking of starting a PBM for the Broken Crescent Mod (works for owners of Kingdoms or just 1.3), either now or when the next patch for it comes out. It would be a regular succession game, probably with 20 turns per player.

Any fellow BC players interested?

Tentative faction choice: Georgia

Tentative play list: Zim, EF, and Ramses.

depends on the faction...

Which factions would interest you? I'm pretty flexible, with my only priorities being to try one with a hard starting position or one close to the Mongols, to make it harder.

well I'll join so long as I don't have to do a massive writeup, I still haven't done the Scottish one :(

I don't think you have to worry about the Scottish one this late.

I'd like writeups for everybody's turn, but they don't have to be long. A short paragraph and a pic of the country at the start and end of a reign would be enough to give some idea of how one's turn went.

Do you have any faction preferences? Ramses and I were thinking maybe Georgia or Oman, as they have difficult starting positions, or maybe the Kwarezhm Shah, since they have to face down the Mongols.

Hadn't thought of it before, but the Kypchaks might also be hard, since they are horsearcher based, yet have generally weaker horsearchers than a lot of the more eastern factions.

I found the Omans quite boring as it is mainly treks across the desert to just face rebels. Georgia is my preference as there are many options in where to expand to. Will there be limits on conquest or can the first player blitz the entire map

As Zim already knows, I'm in for this.

If you haven't tried BC, it's pretty frickin' good. We're thinking to pick a faction that gets to go heads up with the Mongols once they show up. Expect some good battles, and maybe even to lose some cities.
