Twisted Mind IVThis game was run by Pat Loney (Overlord). |

Twisted Mind IV is fianlly over. 22 players started the game and in the end MunchMunch (aka Lord Corwin, AKA Amber) came out victorius with ^^^ getting the co-winners slot. By games end there were only 7 viable countries left. Most interesting was the MunchMunch had the lowest tech level of the seven and Arrakis, the 7th placed country, had the highest.
Anyway, notes and comments of the setup. First, I gave everybody 10k civs to start, but put the civ growth at 20% the normal. Okay, that was a bit low but the normal rate is way too fast in my opinion. The big game will probably be 60% normal. The only other major setup difference was the land layout. The map below is a screen grab of what a portion of it looked like near the end of the game.

As you can see, lots of bridges connecting the single islands. (btw, bridges only cost $500). The players really seemed to love this island type setup and we should note that for future refence.
the final blow in the game came when MunchMunch attacked Oktoberfest who was at the top of the powerchart at the time (if I recall correctly). Prior to that, the game ahd kinda stalled as only Ski and Arrakis were trading bullets, hardware, and insults. During this was Ski had the upper hand until Mongol_Horde came in to support Arrakis. Sadly for them they only managed to get the gains from that one attack and after that, the trenches went up.
The last couple updates saw a couple of the smaller nukes get tossed around but with people having no cash (did I mention that civ tax rate was 2x but bars didn't pay anything?) there was not much money to buy the atomic devices. and let's face it, those tiny 1st generation nukes don't do too much damage.
So the game is over. Congrates to MunchMunch and ^^^. Now everybody get off your butt and sign up for The Big Game.
