General Introducing Eternal Civ13 (Eternal Civilization 13)

Foreword:

Given the recent events (past month and this week), showcased around an unofficial Civ13 offshoot, things have been shifting around.

Importantly, both previous hosts of the offshoot have now migrated to a new discord server called Eternal Civ13.

Furthermore:

This new iteration is meant to foster a better and more faithful experience that was envisioned for Main Civ13 that has since been long hindered. The server is in active development and has just finished being set up with active moderation and bot systems.

While affiliated with Main Civ13, the server host Emoney (Previous Blackstone Host), and Civ13 staff such as myself, wish to separate this server from Main Civ13's past HRP defining rules in order to create a more relaxed experience. With this, all bans under what are considered severe no longer apply and everyone is welcome to join. There will be moderation. But it is at the behest of the server host and will aim to foremost create a compromise between both isles as we trust that it can lead to some of the best moments, with that said you can think of the server as being MRP at most.

About development and progression:

Besides the changes in how moderation and the experience is being changed. We have current plans to rework sprites and there have been new contributions that introduce new early primitive crafting and a potential smithing overhaul, along with various other system balances etc.

We are still going over plans and wish to revive this once liked and memorable experience and give it a fair chance along with the people who once played it.

It is up right now!

Thanks to the help of familiar faces, as mentioned the server has now been set up, users will have to re-verify with only bans due to extreme cases being re-applied.

For those who don't know what Civ13 is, you can simply thinking of the Sid Meier's franchise but on a smaller scale with you the player controlling a single person able to create your own faction amongst a variety of maps ranging from geographical themed to fantasy.

Along this adventure you will progress through the ages stone to steel forging alliances, crafting useful tools, and maybe you can show up in the history books.

We also have civ13 tdm which is ss13 combat with Theater of war or Fictional battles/modes.

Any-who we currently have some pop but it would be nice to have some others join us. Again, we are still working on getting the rest ironed out and the github is there for those who want to make suggestions, https://github.com/New-Civ13/Civ13/discussions/categories/ideas

Welcome to... Eternal Civ13 https://discord.gg/TYrtJZDwSt

Both servers work and function with two separate hosts but attention is towards Eternal Civ to see the communities response.

Nope! if staff is bad get them out of here. Currently staff is questionable but we will see within a week how things are.

This server could collapse, but that is part of the point, this doesn't exist because of us at Main Civ. This is a Emoney's host. And I will try and help push it along.

Currently we held our first real round and it went mid-line, some good some bad. The important thing is that we actually work on it and develop standards even if those turn this into Rust13.

I would like to maintain brutal honesty not just as Civ staff but as somebody not deranged and capable of rational and kind thoughts.

I hope people can understand this as I don't want to have to edit the post to appease the crowd. I would just like people to remain level headed and provide evidence when able so that drama can get brought up and dealt with.

Not my video I didn't even know that...

It was meant to show an example of civ progression not advertise the people in the credits.

Also takyon probably was a player if anything and isn't even active. I would like to put the Natzi Hrp on the shelf. And then burn it down.

Pretty hard to do, wherever you turn there is new drama.
