New "Ancient Empires" PBEM created

[Civfan]

well i took my first turn from the save.

[Steve Clark]

50 turns? I assumed that you took your one turn, right? I'll read up on the FAQ tomorrow and then wait for my turn to roll around. So we're playing by attachment, PBAT?

[Civfan]

if we want to play with barbarian wraith and king level we should start over then!

Since its not clear about the turns, i only took 1 turn!
For this game we seriously need to do an mpg session.

Hopfully we all can get together one time. How is everyone for the weekend?

Say Saturday or Sunday!

Well anyways,
laters.

[diegoami]

Err I uploaded the file twice.

First upload is Prince & Raging Hordes

Second upload is Deity & Barbarian Wraith

I still haven't uploaded a King & Barbarian Wraith start game
I can upload it when I am back home, in about 8/9 hours

Maybe me and Civfan can swap tribes, so he can create the starting file, he sure is more experienced than I am

Maybe we can get a neutral party to play the first 5/10 turns for ALL of us ?

[diegoami]

MP would be nice, I can find a slot this weekend, if anybody else can it is OK for me

[Civfan]

ok i'll swap tribes with you. So i'm now hittites right?
I'll post the first turn in 2 hours from now. At school at the moment.

[Civfan]

i'll private message everyone about a game on this weekend.
If one person can't make it though what should we do?
Should we cancel the game and have someone sub for that person?

[Steve Clark]

Why don't we just start instead of waiting for MP to happen (which will likely not be the case)? We actually may be able to cycle through each turn fairly quickly (more than 1 person's turn/day). I can promise that when my turn comes up, I'll do it that evening and upload it back up.

Paul, since this is your baby, any thoughts?

[Civfan]

well heres the first turn then me as hittites and its on barbarian wraith and king level.

[diegoami]

Babylones turn

[germanos]

Assyrian turn

Assyria found mercenaries, a new hut and a Village.

[Steve Clark]

You guys are just going to stay on your side of the world and deal with barb wrath, right? Right?

[Civfan]

just played a pratice run with the hittities. 3110 BC, barbarians stats
bronze infantry 130
battery ram 121
All centred at the hittite capital..

[germanos]

In my playtest I didn't find my neighbours yet.

I'll make sure I have some defence ready for the barbs. The unit that I can build (scirmishers )will be effective if I can build it in large enough numbers.

Don't worry about your capital though, the Palace guard should be able to hold it I think.

Maybe we will have to ally against the barbs

Or maybe I will have to take advantage of their rampage

I'm really looking forward to this game, it will be totally different from anything I have played yet.
Keep me posted on the Barbarian Hordes, please...

I hope Kull will be able to play soon... The way this goes, we could have fun without a MP session after all.

[Civfan]

about 20 turns after I did an offensive and killed many barbs. One thing though was they all just seemed to die out at some point. By 2980 there were all gone. Wasn't much of an offensive. tens of them died by my swordsman and shirmishers. The rest perished against an assault on my capital.
