New Game: Pong 3

General Settings

  • Two human players (Joe & Nate) and seven AI players.
  • Humans play on King difficulty.
  • AIs play on King difficulty.

Ping-Pong Civ Rules

  1. Mulligan: Until turn 30 (quick speed), a human player may mulligan any game or start that they do not want to play without conceding. We immediately cancel the game and start a new one.
  2. Reincarnation: If a player is defeated or concedes, he or she may rejoin the game as a surviving AI civ/leader of their choice in an effort to prevent the surviving human from winning. A human that loses to the AI still loses even if all other humans were defeated.

Join Ping-Pong Civ and play with  real,  reliable, roleplaying people who write Pong Report Want to join the next game of Ping-Pong Civ? Nate and Joe are recruiting! We play continuously, every Tuesday night, from 8-9:30p EST (-5 GMT). Diplomacy and chatter are conducted via Discord throughout the week. No quitters! We have about 2 seats available currently. Rarely missing a session is okay if you give notice. We will probably play a one-shot game with the remaining players that week. No-showing even one time is a permanent kick without a very good excuse. We play the PC edition of Civ6 with all DLC and Rise & Fall.  This  is an example of our typical game settings, but everything is negotiable. All experience levels welcome - we use difficulty settings to provide handicaps. The next game starts on Feb-13. Interested? Email ayronis@gmail.com with subject [Join Pong] and tell us a little about yourself. If there's still room, we'll send you an invi...

Pong 2-3: Full Report of France

Bonne nuit! I've played Catherine a few times, not my favorite but a pretty solid leader/civ.  I enjoy the extra level of visibility, the wonder bonus mid-game, and to be Queen of the spies! Jungles, not my favorite. Enough bananas to feed Paris, though, and maybe a decent campus spot to the West. Build order was Scout > (Free Scout from Hut) > Monument > Builder > Slinger. A bunch of grassland to expand into to my north, plains and deserts to the south. Found Germany and two city states pretty quickly. The city states provide a decent buffer between me and the AI. Decent two-luxury city to the south. Found America to the north, closer than I'd like.  I begin to ponder where my first settler will go, with Northeast leading in my mind. I've got 2 scouts, so I play that card.  I take faith & gold over production because I want a pantheon, preferably pushing my presumed cultural advantages. ...
