Have a look at the first post in the OCC bloodlust thread.

I'd say 20 turns per person (dropping at the discretion of those playing as our civ grows) might be a decent size of turn.

Ideally I suspect not always taking over from the same person and handing on to the same might be preferable but the advantage of a simple list such as SG gives in that game is clarity so lets go with such a list. You head it off and put the rest of us in order afterwards.

For a map I suggest a random medium sized one. Just go ahead and generate one. You pick the level, barb activity, age of world, continent/isthmus/whatever, which civ we are etc.

As to playing style I have a feeling we may be perfectionists rather than ICS players but shall we just let everyone do their own thing? If we switch wildly from one strategy to another I don't suppose we'll break any records but we'll have fun.

So, do a post with the order, play your 20 turns then e-mail to the second person in the list. SG helpfully put the e-mail addresses in his first post with his list but, actually, each player can readily enough get the next person's e-mail address from their profile.

We've got enough players now to start but if half a dozen more say they want to join, just amend your post with the list to include them in the order.

I must say I quite like keeping track of how we're doing in between turns so if folk feel like keeping a short log of what happens during their reign and posting that in this thread that would be good. Twenty turns can be quite short so it is no surprise if not a great deal goes on sometimes. Of course some gabby buggers can rabbit on endlessly even about very little .

Good luck to us, I say. Let the A1 beware, the Anatolians are upon them!

Is this going to be bloodlust or AC?

Anatolia, are you moved yet? Let us know when you are able to get this rolling... There seems to be ample interest.
