Blood and FRIDAYS

[Anguille]

Welcome veb!

I only managed to play 2 games this weekend:

- I finished my 3d Master of Orion CtS campaign (huge, with the Psilons). It's been my second loss (tech victory by the Meklars). I was fairly close behind but the Meklars were ahead in everything. My first loss was an excellence loss to the Klackons (me as the Darloks). Both games in EA3 and on normal. I will make a break until EA4. I've had fun with it but there are still some balance issues (diplomacy), some bugs and some features missing/incomplete (minor races, espionnage). Still waiting until i see the final product before i make a judgement. All i can say, is that the game is not ready yet.

- I completed a city in Grand Ages: Rome....getting close to the end of the campaign. Funny thing is that i've played about as much Master of Orion as Grand Ages: Rome but get the impression that i've played GA: R a lot more....

- I also continued an Armada 2526 Gold campaign...a huge map with 1'000 turns.

Wow 1st post  :D

Playing Rise of Prussia Gold, Civ 4 with mod mod Rise of Mankind: A New Dawn  ;D

Welcome!  Good to see another Civ IV'er  O0

I never got into Civ 5. Just could not accept the 1 unit per tile and Civ 5 games seemed less "epic". Really hoping they discontinue that in Civ 6.

Thanks to all for the welcome!

In Civ 6 I believe it will still generally be one unit per tile, but a selection of them will be stackable.

@veb: I'm with ya'.  V seemed washed out and bland color wise and one unit per hex is like playing Panzer General with city building.  VI is supposed to be more of the same.  I just hope they brighten the colors and that armies that can be loaded with units becomes a 'thing'.

But your fine with Warlock, same type of rules.

[MetalDog]

The city building aspect is not as deep in Warlock.  Nor are the culture considerations.  Warlock is build to grow fast, produce money/research/units and attack your enemies before they attack you.  The AI is not especially bright and when you have the hammer, you should use it.

Civ is all of those things but deeper.  And the AI is better.
