As long as you are having fun, who cares how you rank? I'm glad you have adopted this attitude Sirian. It's not like you have anything to prove anyways.

Nevertheless, I'm still a bit disappointed by some things. As T-hawk points out, the changes to bombardment favor the player in early military action. I hadn't thought that through far enough to see that just from what I played, but it makes sense, and it is likely to force me to decide more clearly in a variantish way about how many options to leave on the table. The new game balance may actually be fun to explore for its own sake, once, to see just how the changes fit together, precisely, but in the bigger picture, the overview is clearly unchanged from when I departed active Civ3 land for GalCiv last fall.

Say, I'm glad you stopped in here. I know there are a number of folks highly active at SG play who don't hang around RB land much when Epics action is thin. Not to beat a broken record here, nor to play a dead horse, but are you aware of the Master of Orion action starting up here at RB? Don't know if you've tried the game, are a fan, never heard of it, or what, but I would expect it has something to offer a Beyond-Deity player such as yourself. Hop to our GalCiv forum for more information, if interested. OK, end of shameless plug, we now return you to your regularly scheduled Civ3 chat.

  Tourney Mission Statement:
Existing Civ III tournaments, contests and group events are universally plagued by elements or shortcomings that lead often to compartmentalized results. Spoilers and privileged info is readily made available while games are still in progress. The game itself remains in flux through a patching process. The scoring system measures only a few elements of the gameplay. We at Realms Beyond are not satisfied to settle for these conditions and compromises.

The Realms Beyond is home to gamers who go beyond the norm, who creatively add depth to good games to make them better, who choose to set our own added limits to gameplay for the purpose of increasing challenge, varying gameplay flavor, and getting more out of the games we love. We discard the usual standards and venture into realms beyond, where we share our passion for gaming with one another, and with those who are like-minded.

We develop and refine our tournament as we go, with the help of the players. Each game is subject to rules, but we keep the framework light, the emphasis on excellence, the focus on the spirit of the game. Come and play. Share, compare, teach, and learn.
