So I assumed you hadn't bothered with a second city then? Sounds like just let them splatter themselves against your walls. I'm also wondering from whence they came, whether the peninsula-heavy lands of Greece will offer better protection, unless they come right off of the boats.

They focused against the hittities capital city. They were showing about 9 squares to the right of the capital. I created about 5 cities and lost all but one of them to the barbs. I had one built on a hill and several veteran shirmishers and a wall built. This city to my surprise was destroyed. It was a city of about 3 population. I had uncovered alot of the cities and so recieved a great deal of settlers that i used for new cities and adding to the cities. My capital was a size 5 city. Not bad but it was brutal watching the entire empire go to peices.Civfan (Warriorsoflight)Comment

If vet skirmishers behind walls on a @%!$# hill can't stop them, what will in the early part of the game (besides Palace Guards)???Comment

spearmen do a pretty good job if their vetern. I successfully defended one city from the barbarians with spearmen. Discover swordsmen and you cut them down to peices, but beware of the legions they use. Can cause some serious damage. Hey this is a challenging and fun scenario. Being difficult in wraith is what makes it even better. Dont worry everyone since the barbarians appear near my city I'll be the one dealing with them. Unless I lose the capital. Tough chance though!Civfan (Warriorsoflight)Comment

OK guys I'm Back, and here's the game! I forget to set it for "Wait at end of Turn" on the first go-round, which is too bad since the Random Events generated a Desert Storm - and that would have made somebody's life miserable (probably the guy in Iraq!)To La Fayette, as fine a gentleman as ever trod the Halls of Apolyton
From what I understand of that Civ game of yours, it's all about launching one's own spaceship before the others do. So this is no big news after all: my father just beat you all to the stars once more. - Philippe BaiseComment

Amen brother! The good news is we have some time until the first Hordes appear - thankfully they hold off for awhile (I forget the number of turns - though it's probably more than 20).Originally posted by germanos

48 houres will be enough. You can't expect a PBEM to move always very quick. You're dealing with people from all over the world, who sometimes also have other things to do.Alexandr Yopov, Commander of the Murmansk front in the Red Front democracy game.

Normally 48 hours would be fine, but since this game starts so slowly, I suggest a 24 hour limit for the first 20 moves (which gets us to 3000 BC). After that we go to 48 - All in favor?
