New PBEM game (good players for gigantic game)

[Pin]

I want to start a new pbem game with 4+ players, gigantic maybe huge map deity level. Other settings to be decided by the group. I would apreciate that we play by a 24h rule (or less if wanted) to get the game to move reasonably fast along...

I will join, but only if you use Semi_acc - scenario, or create a new scenario [players have min 5 cities on start and some PW ], otherwise the game will be very slow and boring...

Nordicius trade goods pack 1.4 welcome too, but not necessarily ... No other mods....

[Krash]

I'd like to play in this game, just let me know what scenarios or mod's I will need to have.
Krash!

I would like to play Pin. But unfortantly I am to bogged down with the other PBEM games. But I would suggest a quick start mod

[Stavros]

I'll play Pin, and I agree that we need some sort of fast start, especially on a gigantic map, otherwise it'll take forever.
I agree with the 24 hour (or less) rule, but prefer no mods.

[Pin]

Good then we are 4 players so far, i agree to the semi_acc parts. Lets start with 5 settlers but doo we really need pw at the start? How do i change the settler count without making any other changes to the gameplay?

no problem ! PW, gold, advances, five super fast settlers and two extra units; it is all features semi_acc scenario, but if you will play the scenario, all must remember, that in first five turns bulit CW and garnaries are free!

Hi Guys,
Would somebody please just quickly explain the 24H rule to me? I just want to be sure that I am clear about all the rules.
Thanks!

[Martock]

if this game is still open, i'd like very much to join in. as far as mods are concerned i have the Med 3 public release on my system now.

[Pin]

you got 24h from the player ahead of you put in this forum that he have sent the turn, until the next player gets it....
if not the player ahead of you will just open your turn and press end. (I hope we will move along even faster then 24h pr turn in the begining..)

Pin I now send the scenario to your email addres. Please unpack the file into your ctp scenarios folder. first you should acquaint with all this scenario features...

Important note:
To Play this Scenario in a PBEM game follow these instructions:

1.When you recieve your turn place it in a saved game folder

2.Start Ctp and load the quicker scenario

3.Once the scenario is loaded, go to options and load the email game
you placed in your save game file.

This only needs to be done for the first 5 turns, on turn 5 anyone can
simply load the game by double clicking on it. The first player to do
so we see SLIC errors which may cause the game messages to look funny
but this will only occur once and only for the player who first drops
the scenario on that turn.

Good Luck !

Pin
I have downloaded the file and unpacked it into my scenarios folder. So I think that I'm all ready to go whenever everyone else is.
Thanks for explaining the 24H rule, I don't forsee any problems with that!
