Setting up UltraDip I.....

[easthaven]

I'll be the Egyptians

[Mr Dimbleby]

I'll be the Americans. Leader: Abraham Dimbleby

I would also propose a 1 minute turn limit, so we can play more than two turns an hour(which it was averaging yesterday in Eurodip). Also it might be entertaining to play at Emperor/Diety level with raging hordes.

Isn't five people enough to start? Seven people just aren't as reliable as four or five, so lets get this show rolling at 7est on Wednesday!! I know I sound impatient.....because I am! And I don't have the hobby that Capo does to make me relax.. &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;I'm out if we have to wait another week.&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;
Drake will be sufficient for ruler name thanks.

Alright, we start Wednesday at seven, the game is closed we are going to have two AI, the official tribes are....

Dimbleby - Ameircans
JDI "Joe" Falcon - Canadians
Drake - Mongolians
Easthaven - Egyptians
Capo - European Union
Alfred Interloper - Brazilians
Ariel Infidel - Indians

Since each country will have their actual flag, your colors will not be the same, the Canadians, for example will be red, the barbarians will be black...

There will be new units, and new techs, not so much new techs though.

1/3rd normal tech rate, emperor level. Of course on the diplomap.

We start THIS WEDNESDAY at seven, if anyone would like volunteer to be the organizor, be my guest.

Beautiful! I'll be looking forward to it. A few questions first- the map we're using- is this one anyones played on before and if so I would like to see it before we start tommorow if at all possible, just to make it fair. You're hosting Capo, correct? How long is the session going to be? I suggest 4 hours. What does anyone else think??? Do you have icq capo?

[Mr Dimbleby]

Either Joe or I might want to be the Brazilians, otherwise we're going to run out of space in north America real quick. I am willing to do it if he doesn't want to switch.
In the event I am to be the Brazilian, you may make my leader name Tupac Dimbleby.

Alright, obvoiusly there is a problem with the Canadian/American question, as a quick solution I am going to move either the Yanks or the Canucks to Australia, and rename them accordingly. Now which one of your North American-Capitalist-Large Livin'-asspipes wanna go down under?

The map is available in the creation section of Apolyton under "I have created the largest and most detailed map of the world" scroll down a bit and there is a link I have posted for those purposes.

The terrain graphics have been changed a bit to make the map nicer to look at and more realistic as well, most of the units have a changed appearance, changed for the better that is. Alpine troops have been removed to make room for a unit called "Infantry"

Everyone has the CURRENT flag of their nation, not the monotone color they were given by Sid Meier.

The tech rate is 1/3rd the rate, I have changed the Fundy tech retardation from 50% to 70%, I am going to post the zip file in this thread, but will play test it with the Indians (who are owned by the AI) in order to gauge any problems during the game.

We start wednesday at 7 pm eastern, and I don't have ICQ so I hope that someone else can please organize this thing tommorow night. Also, we will all have to download the zip file in order for this to work out. So expect to do that.

There will be no announced winner in this game, and I have discovered how to make "screenshots" for your posts, and how to get them to show up in the thread, so if you want to know just e-mail me (NKREEFER@aol.com) and I will tell ya how. Actually I will post up some interesting screens of my game so you can see how things will look. Peace, I'm outta here.

Alright here are two action screens from the game I simulated, the first is the military buildup between India and Mongolia around the bay of Bengal:


Alrighty, and the second one is the tranquil dominance of the Baltic area by the European Union:


That should give everyone an idea of the some of the changes that have been made. I also need an answer, who is being moved to Australia? Canada or America?
