[SS 6.4] Clash of Gods! OOC - winners Silver Shield, LooseCannon1 and Mithridate

[Nightbringer]

How are player vs. player battles fought here? I ask because at twc its always auto-resolve with battles against AI playable. And before and after screen shots are required to be posted with editing allowed. But nothing has been said about this in the rules and I don't see any battle SSs in some other threads I've looked at.

Having taken a look at his tips I believe we are allowing battles to be fought against anyone.

As to screens, we generally just go without them here but if you want to post them nobody will object. If something comes into question the GM takes a look and rules accordingly.

This game might be different though.

Nightbringer can have Venice. Yes this game allows for fought battles against anyone (this was decided in the previous thread, I'll update the rules). The reason being that HAs rule in lead battles. Autoresolve and RR off will favor the Catholics way, waaay too much.

That's the way it read to me. But when I attack another player how well will the AI fight the battle for the other player? In its usual (not very good) manner? And of course I expect it to fail for me, too.

I'll go with whatever the GM rules.

I haven't thought about that hmm

Of course, this is why a hotseat with fought battles is very different strategically from one with AR'd battles. Myth has kindly provided some tips on how to play this style in his first post, but in short you have to ensure that you don't give your enemies the chance of a battle by scouting terrain, using forts to block chokepoints and protect your armies and by planning your moves carefully.

so, when will the saves be ready, and whose turn is first?

[phonicsmonkey]

I created the first save already for Myth but he'll need to amend it to make Venice playable and switch Sicily to the AI

(Myth that's just two console commands after logging in to the admin console with logon [password]

first you type control venice, hit enter and then control sicily, hit enter. Hit the start turn button on the sicily save screen and the game will roll on to the first player.)

First turn for Turks is up! We also have an IC thread.

What did Visorslash say, is he away already? Does he need to be subbed?

[Visor]

I go away tomorrow.

France up.
