A friendly suggestion - put the game speed on ā€œonlineā€ rather than ā€œquickā€ for a faster game. This helps for 8-player games.

We had a vote on game speed in an earlier incarnation of this game where ā€˜Quick’ was selected. I prefer slower speeds but happy to try ā€˜Online’ in this one.

open to more discussion on the speed issue – I generally prefer fast, but not the fastest for these types of games personally. I’ll go with the eventual consensus.

I prefer online, but I’ll play with any speed the host choses.

added another couple of spots and switched to large map due to the high interest

I’d like everyone’s opinions on what speed we run at (online or quick, online is faster) and the civ selection – all random, players choose from the base civ list or we ban some civs/conduct a draft of some kind. Let everyone know so we can reach a consensus!

civ choice and other settings open to discussion

i liked civilizationdrafter, but maybe more than 3 leaders, could it be like 6 for each player to choose from?

p.s. i’ve bought all dlc now, so up to others how big leader pool we talking about

speed - online
civ choice - draft, 6 choices (first preference) or 3 choices (2nd preference)

With 10 players turns can be slow so for that reason I’d choose Online.
And a draft to choose from.

I’m ok with all speed games. I will go for a random leader so I don’t care if it’s from a draft or no

I prefer 8 person games to 10. But the host has the final decision.

prefer quick speed, fine with online. definitely prefer a draft for leaders, 3 or 6 is ok

thanks all for your opinions so far! I think at this point it’s safe to say that online speed is the way to go, and there’s enough support for a draft that I think that’s also the right call. Now I’m taking requests for civs to ban from the draft

I suggest ban Māori. When the game starts, their settler floats around and can settle right next to you, unlike other civs where the spawns are spaced out.

Yes. Maori and Tokugawa

I’m ok without any bans this time but happy to go with consensus :smiley:

switched back to 8 players, with the recent departure … I’ll wait a day to draft to give time for any more ban requests to come in

Are you still looking for players? Would love to join but I only have the platinum bundle(All DLCs up to Australia pack)

sure, just added back a 9th slot for you – come on in. let me see about the dlc … and let us know if you would like any civ banned from the draft, which I’ll conduct tomorrow
