We, the pira...err...sailors of Lanun are some of the best information gatherers (as well as women, gold, and other assorted booty). So, we thought it might be a good and prudent investment to develope a newspaper to keep you thralls entertained!
This is the first posting of the Chronicle, the in-game newspaper for the new upcoming Civilization Democracy game to be hosted here.
The game will be a standard game of Civilization IV, which is a turn-based strategy game of empire and civilization building, with a few notable differences. Firstly, we will be playing as a team. Many players, called 'citizens', will rule the nation, though they may do so by elected official and proxy. At least one election will need to take place, to assign the 'designated player'.
This is a typical 'democracy' game variant. It lends itself to roleplaying, and we hope to foster that spirit, especially with the newspaper. However, we have a few key differences from your typical democracy game.
Firstly, we will be playing the Fall from Heaven Mod. Much respect and credit goes to the FFH team, as they did a terrific job with their mod. We further modify that mod, with the inclusion of the Orbis mod, which I feel brings alot of good new features and adds a sort of 'complete' feeling to the game.
Secondly, every citizen will also have a D&D character, as per the 3.5 edition of the game. Citizens who are enchanted, unconscious, dead, coerced, restrained, etc will not be able to vote. Thus, it is up to the citizens to also establish rules and law enforcement, if only to keep strong-arm thugs from taking control.
