[PBEM]Civ4 PBEM #2: NEW civs (10/24)

[snoopy369]

Differently from PBEM #1: Classics, this is for the NEW civs in Civ4, or ones significantly different in UU and perhaps play style.

I only came up with 3 really, but I'm adding a fourth (America) that's sort of different. Please suggest other civs for being good candidates for this game

Malinese, India, Inca, America

This is a 4 player PBEM. Again, i'm up for whatever rules people want

1. Snoopy369 (snoopy369 yahoo com) (US Central Time - evening) - Indians, but i'm flexible
2. Sabrewolf - GMTish - Arabs (Saladin)
3. smellymummy - Mali - US Mountain time
4. Beta - Inca - US Eastern time late

how many are you going to start? i'll need to update the news item

[snoopy369]

I was thinking 2 pbems and 2 succession games, for starters, to see how many people are interested Paddy might start some of his own, for the later release date people (Aussies get it 11/6 or something?).

We do have what about 100 Civ3 PBEMs active right now?

I guess i should have noted this as my reason for wanting a forum directly ... didn't want to horribly clog up the regular forum

[snoopy369]

I wouldn't worry too much about the modified news item though, they'll find their way here I'll post in Civ3 - PBEM and - Trackers, that'll bring people. A top once I do that wouldn't be amiss though, as rommel has been hard hit for internet connectivity lately

(But thanks for the news item! That's very useful and an unexpected boon )

[sabrewolf]

i'd be interested in joining in both PBEMs (started a sign-up thread 1-2 weeks ago myself)!

hey, can we also use the new coop-mode in one of the games?

Sabre, are you getting the game in November?

[sabrewolf]

i have preordered it, but it takes 5-7 working days to arrive in europe... switzerland has a pretty fast post system (unlike italy) so 5 days should be possible

[smellymummy]

i'll sign up for mali, US mountain time

[snoopy369]

Updated, 5 days is good enough :P

Any pref on civ sabre?

[self biased]

i'll take the incans.

[self biased]
