Wrath of the Khan 2: RECRUITMENT and rules discussion

[phonicsmonkey]

SS 6.4, early and with gracul AI

[phonicsmonkey]

Sorry, no, Savage AI

I think

do you know how to check?

[Visor]

Go to data/campaign then open recent.txt

Shoud tell you all you need to know.

[phonicsmonkey]

awesome

it's savage AI and RR is off

[phonicsmonkey]

Based on your feedback and a look at the save game I think the human factions should be:

- Egypt
- Byz
- Kwaz
- turks
- Rus
- Moors
- Cumans
- France
- Denmark
- England

What do you guys think of that?

Add HRE to that and we have 11 non-Mongol factions. How does that list look to you? We have all the major powers and a good spread of eastern and western factions.

[Visor]

Sure. I'm good for anything. Though I would rather a catholic faction.

[phonicsmonkey]

I think what I'm going to do is, rather than draw lots for the factions, I'll randomise the list of players and that will determine who picks in which order. That way everyone has a chance to express their preference.

EDIT: Here is what random.org says is the order of picks:

1. Rougeman
2. The Celtic Viking
3. Silvershield
4. Ezilkannan
5. Zim
6. slysnake
7. Visorslash
8. Ashurnasirpal II
9. Nightbringer
10. LooseCannon1
11. Myth

Get picking from this list:

- Egypt Zim
- Byz Silvershield
- Kwaz
- turks
- Rus
- Moors Ezilkannan
- Cumans
- France
- Denmark The Celtic Viking
- England Rougeman
- HRE

Ok, people, it's time to man up. Somebody needs to step up and choose the Kwazies

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

so Myth dosen't get stuck with them I know you'll are going to leave the Cumans/Kwazies for Myth & me

[Visor]

I'll take the Cumans if no-one wants em. (Sorry if it's out of order, but I don't think anyone really wants to be them. :P)

[The Celtic Viking]

I'll pick Denmark.

[Myth]

I'm last to pick? Then, can I pick any available faction, be it in the list or not? Mind you those that are not in the list are considered weaker.

[ArcturUs]

hmm, if we are allowed to pick factions not in the list, I might have a change of mind in choosing the factions too, I may opt to pick a faction in tough situation, hmm. but not kwarez though as Im already playing as Kwarez in CoG.

[SilverShield]

man most of those factions are wasted. theres a US debt size ahead for almost anyone. looks pretty messy already. guess with england and denmark taken kiev probably is the best choice but i dont know i aint feeling them really whatever im more into living up to my military past so give me that cojones strutting monster. east rome all the way. oorah puppies

[phonicsmonkey]

hmm, if we are allowed to pick factions not in the list, I might have a change of mind in choosing the factions too.

I'd rather you picked from the list so we get a decent spread of east and west and all the important factions are included. It would suck to have a game like this where no-one picked (eg) Egypt. But let me know if you have a specific faction in mind.

theres a US debt size ahead for almost anyone.

I'm going to equalize everyone's treasury at 30k before we start. So you'll at least get a chance to balance the budget.

that's good.

Anyways, regarding the pick, I'm sticking with my old decision, I will take the Moors

[Zim]

Egypt, please.

[Nightbringer]

I'll take the byzantines

[phonicsmonkey]

I'll take the byzantines

Two things are wrong with that I'm afraid

1) it's not your pick yet (see above for the order)
2) Silvershield has already picked the Byzantines

[Nightbringer]

hmmm,

I SUPPOSE you are right, I'll have to check into that though......






XD whoops!

[Visor]

If Sly doesn't take Cumans, put me down for them, otherwise give me Khwarez. Don't think I'll last too long. :P

[slysnake]

I'll go with Holy Roman Empire, since I think I will be bored playing France in CoG and Wrath of Khan :)

[Ashurnasirpal II]

If Sly doesn't take Cumans, put me down for them, otherwise give me Khwarez. Don't think I'll last too long. :P

I think it's fair to say Visorslash is taking the Cumans, so I'll take France!

[Nightbringer]

I shall lead the mighty Kieven Rus then.

[Zim]

So I'm taking over a large Egypt and you the Rus. I shall have to switch to Turkey and be destroyed by you before this is done.

If you would like to trade Egypt for the Turks, I'd be willing to accommodate you.

[Zim]

Wouldn't you prefer the Kwarezhm?

[Nightbringer]

Hmm, that sounds familiar...

But my concern here is the mongols, and I hope to stand by your side this time.
