Rules of the G8 game of February the 19th

Post by Sporting_Lisbon »

Special Theme: XP Rush - the player that has the most xp at the 20 minute mark gets 10 points. No Torii gates,  Indian Cow shrine, Mercantilism/Market BB or plantation/farm spamming.


Mafia Wars - You need to control one trading post in order to age to Fortress Age. Two are required to age to Industrial Age and three to Imperial Age. (You only need to control them when you start aging) Every time you steal a trading post from another player you earn 1 point.

Map: Silk Road


Winning = 7 Points


Runner-up = 5 Points


Third Place = 3 Points


Fourth Place = 1 Point


Unique Civ = 1 Point


Knocking Someone Out (may be split between two) = 4 Points


Being 2X Teamed (requires enough damage done) = 4 Points


Knocking a TC sub-10Mins = 8 Points


Knocking a TC sub-15 Mins = 4 Points


Revolting = 2 PointsKO’ing,, or Joint KO’ing Someone After Revolting = 6 Points


First to 1000 Points = 2 Points


First to Industrial = 1 Point


First to Trigger a Trade Monopoly = 2 Points


Winning Using a TM (requires at least 5 players to be in play) = 15 Points


Stopping a TM (May be Split) = 2 Points


Wall Spamming = - 6 Points


The point system stops after 2h of game play, and points for the first places are atributed based on score.

XP rush.  Most XP gathered at the 15 or 20 min mark.  Native firepit, Japan shrine XP gather card and Otto Silk road cards are banned.  No XP enhancing cards are allowed.  No Japan wonder to double bonus XP is allowed either.

Map is Silk Road.

This would be for 10 points.

The otto silk road doesn't affect xp, the card is crap anyway. I like it. Make it 20 mins imo. Can firepit be allowed except for the xp dance?

We PM'd each other to create the rule, but if he wants to add a rule that's fine.

Firepit is OK so long as XP dance is NOT used.

Silkroad is genuinely a genious pick for this theme. Really creative and smart !
