I d/l Free Colonisation a few days ago http://www.freecol.org/ Its basically a Colonization remake which includes MP.

I am tempted to force some Buddies to play it this weekend, did anyone try the Game in Multiplayer yet? Does it run smoothly? Is it balanced?

Yes its a multilingual Release. As usual there are several not translated tibbits in the German version but its a better translation than I expected.

I also found out this Week that Free Settlers can become Master Fur Trappers if they stay long enough on the job =)

Version 0.10.1 was released a week ago. No sign of development slowing down, and the game is getting very close to the original commercial game (while having a much friendlier user-interface).

The "showpic" links in the above posting seem to be out of date - replace that part with /screenshots.html.
