XGM Diplomacy (v2) - Settings vote

[Dictatorfish]

Hey all!

It seems that with the forums back online, the faction voting is well underway. Next on the agenda: game settings! Choose your preferred settings and we'll get this game up and running ASAP.

One last thing, once we decide on the faction we're playing (there's no clear winner yet), should we have a names suggestions thread with a final vote on the name? (Don't you just love democracy?)

Happy voting!

If we go for fun and emphasis on diplomacy, then (battle) M or H / (map) M. For battlefield, M offer better chances for long marches and epic conquest by a single army (e.g., under command of Pyrrhus ) + with M in the campaign, diplomacy will make more sense and use of agents will have some impact (although FDS is always there for us).

Edit: Major battles-to be played.

H/H. Always H/H. It is the best balanced difficulty.

Fog of war: On.
Battles: Played.
And some minor thing, play with Fatique Off.

Ah, pants! I forgot to add another option. Please just post with your response to this one:
1) Once the enemy is in rout: Battle ends in victory
2) Once the enemy is in rout: Survivors are chased down

If anyone (admins?) is able to edit the poll, please include this for me. Thanks.

I'd say battle ends in victory. Kill rates are already too high, its how I play most of my battles.

I agree with Scutarii.
