[PBEM] Industrial Start

[sabrewolf]

i'm looking for 1-3 people to join me in an industrial start PBEM game.

size dependent on the number of players...

daily players only, please (5-7 turns a week will do, not less)

is anybody interested?

[g_storrow]

Sounds good to me let me know when you want to start.

[Corossol]

I'd like to join too, as Bismark. Panzers! Details are in PM from the other game (Ice Age / Highlands). What kind of map will we use for this one?

BTW we should have a game for every era: classical, middle ages, etc. Would be a good change from the usual PBEM.

[sabrewolf]

corossol:
map: i'd say regular style.

regarding other eras: i was planning on doing more but first i'd like to see how interested people are.
regarding the other ages i only really see middle ages. classical is only just after ancient, modern doesn't leave much space for research decisions and i can't really remember the other names

[jshelr]

happy to join

[sabrewolf]

this one is now full too

to all who missed a spot: PM me if you want a medieval start PBEM or anything else...

[sabrewolf]

Hi there

Perfectly willing to play a random civ in Sabre's games, but America sounds ok for this one and England would be acceptable if it's available.

[sabrewolf]

corossol: what time of day do you tend to play your turns?

jshelr: ok, america here (FDR or washington?) and england in the other...
cool... i'll get this one started tonight.

[Corossol]

I'm GMT -5 and I usually play between 23.00 - 04.00 GMT. Did you get my other details (email, password) by PM ?

[sabrewolf]

thanks for the answer.

so here:
sabrewolf --> jshelr --> corossol --> g_storrow

setting it up now...

[sabrewolf]

as two people chose the only civs with late UUs, i went along and set up two americans (jshelr and me) as well as two german teams (corossol, g_storrow). i thought that would be only fair to all. only city names may be a bit confusing

all victory types are on, but if you're rushing for spacerace, make sure your cities are well defended. one of two surprise attacks may blow your whole alpha centauri plans.
on the other hand if you go warmonger, make sure you pick on the one who is going to win spacerace pretty soon.

there are yet more twists:
- i've chosen the most xenophobic and aggressive civs as oponents: aztecs, japanese and mongolians. but at least no barbarians (they'd have some super-unit from begin on which wouldn't be nice).
- tech trading is disallowed to prevent early and decicive alliances of this kind.

at least everybody should (unless the map generator screws up) have his own continent. it's not a huge one but should be enough for the backbone of your civ.
