I may or may not have started an alliance group
I mean really no one who has ever played a forum game with me should be surprised, alliances are my MO
I may or may not have started an alliance group
I mean really no one who has ever played a forum game with me should be surprised, alliances are my MO
wait who are members of this alliance?
Who is in it? And what was the criteria for choosing them?
Don’t worry about it, lol
Gonna keep all the cards hidden for now
This sounds like specieism to me
Nah not really it was rather arbitrary tbh. No particular reasoning other than one I chose mostly at random that decided who I invited
What I will say is that the Alliance currently has 3 members, with a fourth waiting to see if they accept the alliance
Edit: @Abominable if you need help you could use this thread;
This is good art.
Also, I always fail at minmaxing due to chronic failure to predict emergent strategies syndrome and so I’m just making balanced and uh, subtly weaknessless species with really interesting cultures and funny quirks that make them fun to play
Does anyone have an idea on how do I start the game?
I have some from my expiriant in the past.
First of all - u have the full control about then its start and how u handle that - u want to every round will show here or u want to everyone how join the game a PM about how they do?
Second - what ur type of writhing? Are u want an minimal writhing, an story telling or mix?
3- how info u want to.show to the players? The basic stuff are nesasery, but some mabey show or left the mystius?
Even way, everything are have its limits and his Benifet to u and the players
U can also see others forums game here to take what to do.
In the end, its up to u
What do YOU want to do? Just put any ideas you have into a poll.
EDIT: also maybe message everyone playing with a board of what different tribes have, so you can just edit it whenever someone discovers/builds/collects something.
Like Doom said, Abominable, you could check out a few other Civ games to see how they chose to do things.
Here are a few examples with some easy links for you - while some of these never got started/were put on hiatus, others have been finished or are still in progress, and they all could provide you with ideas of how to move forward.
Pandora Horizon (Survivle Civis Forum Game)
Pandora without Horizon - P.H. Second Season
Dead Game
Deos Sine Tempore (Forum Game)
Deos Mundum (Forum Game)
Thrive of Empires 2

Vasarius: The beginning
I mean they are cooler versions of the mantis so like…
(That actually will be possible in my forum game lol, as I am planning on having both your sapient otters and Featherhorns as potential NPC sapients (or non-NPC if people want to play as them). If you played you could make this a reality…)
I’m down!
I’ll make my civ sheet now.
or tommorow
whatever i have time for
You could do that if you want lol, but I haven’t finished making the game yet so you’d be a tad early.
Anyway we can move this to pms if you want? Don’t want to derail this thread
oh i was planning on joining THIS forum game
but uhhhhhhhhhhh
That works too! I just read it like you were responding to my comment about my forum game my bad lol
Edit: Actually idk if Abominable is still accepting new races you’d have to ask him.
Edit 2: Also, CHONK OTTER.
Considering the fact that the Featherhorn in that image is 30 feet long
@Abominable hey if ur still accepting players…
Resembling, well, giant mantis, these large insect-like species is extremely intelligent, and has somehow befriended the lutra sapiens. They both have achieved a tribe together.
The larger ones have been said to achieve 45 ft in hieght, and 50 in length! Though, this is just a legend. However, if a mantis is well fed enough, as they can keep growing as long as they have enough food (a moderately large amount).
The average size, however, is around 25 ft in height.
Advantages:
+5% all stats when together with Lutra sapiens apart from intelligence. Intelligence when with lutra sapiens: +10%
Mantis-Blood: +25% Attack, +25% defense, +25% speed.
Craving for advancement: +10% intelligence
Disadvantages:
Slow-Reproducers: -50% pop-gain rate (if you see my civ in the first few pandora horizon forum games, you know this is enough to balance out the advantages)
Other: Carnivores
Being the smaller of the two species of the tribe, some of this species contents themselves with protecting the much, much larger mantis. The two species seem to have a special bond, as if they work together best when in the same place…
Advantages:
+5% all stats when together with mantodea apart from intelligence. Intelligence when with mantodea: +10%
Diligent task-doers: +10% to tasks assigned to them
Slippery: Are prone to dodge attacks with great success while in water
Disadvantages:
Smol: -10% physical defense and attack
Other:
Omnivores.
Tailed: Able to use their tails if their arms are occupied…or gone.
Name: Lutra-Mantodean Coallition
Very tech-centered, however their rapid desire to advance leaves them missing some of the basics…
Tech: Basic Metalworking, Fire, Wheel, Stone tools, Leather tents.
@TwilightWings21 wheres your civ
edit:nvm i now see where it is
