Rules notes for L34: The Dawn of Civilizations

Version 5.10.0 are the current rules and will be in effect in this campaign.

1. Turn length- is now 5 years again.

2. Orders format- I really dig the word file with the imbedded excel
worksheet. But any thing that divides the sheet into boxes will do.

3. Please feel free to CC me in your internation banter. Not only do I

enjoy peeking in a seeing what you guys are up to, I can get a

good understanding of what your trying to do when I receive

your orders. If you have a Yahoo group out there I wouldnt

mind being invited, but thats all up to you guys.

2.11.4 Agro Deficits

2.17 Trade

I am using hands on trade, you all have to open trade with units and maintain your routes on your own.

Note: Seafaring nations will be allowed a conduit limit of one. This will better reflect their command of the seas.

7.2.4.24 Movement

Leaders do not require ship units to move across the sea, unless of course they have an army attached.

No Banks at the moment.

A King may name whomever he/she chooses as their heir.  If the King names someone outside of the royal line and he has kids expect trouble. Plus unless otherwise stated I will promote kids in the line to fill heir and prince spots once they come of age.

7.2.4.35 Census

In Effect

7.2.4.36 Re-equip troops

In Effect

7.2.4.37 Upgrade Troops

In Effect

8.2 Action Range for Intel and Assassin Ops

Ensure you assign a base for these ops so I can count the action range. The base can either be a leader or a region that is at NT or better, not necessarily the capital.

9.7 Religious Orders

Not in use at the moment.

10.1.6 The Census

Yes

10.7 Hordes

Not any more any time soon. I think the Cumanis have done enough damage for now.

In Effect

11.1 SE's

They are out there so keep your eyes peeled.

Gold and Transfers

Gold received from a transfer will not be available for use that same turn. The money will go into the saved section on the stat sheet for use the next turn. Both nations must note the transfer in their orders or the money will lost. If you are trading partners then you may transfer the money via the trade route. If not then a leader must deliver the cash.

NFP Across the Sea (© Dave Adams)

If you are going to build something overseas i.e.; a city and you don't own the region then you need to ship the materials to the location.  1nfp = 2 cargo points.
