I think I'll join. It should be noted that I've just acquired C3C/PTW and have no experience with multiplayer.

1. I work in a restaurant, so shifts vary. In any case I'm in EDT time (-6GMT?), and I can usuall play 8-11 am and/or after 10pm.
2. Probably two, on average. Blitzes would be appreciated, especially at first, however.
3. July 19-26, on vacation.
4. AU preferred.
5. Emperor

A carefully balanced map and tribe assignment are vital, since there is no third party human to ally with against a KH, but that was probably obvious already...

Grrrr but an interesting game all the same


I would like to play this AU as well please.

best times GMT 1000 to 1300 mon - fri

[MattH]

Will this require conquests? If it doesn't I'd love to play.

[Mountain Sage]

Sorry everybody, but I don't have the right time schedule to play MP games

[Tarquinius]

Ah I need to register here:

1. The times that I can play vary, but I normally can play during the day. So I probably should be paired with a fellow European or someone in the far east/Australia.
2. I would like to do some sessions, then you can really dive into it. But otherwise I am pretty active so a couple of turns a day should not be a problem.
3. On vacation between July 3rd and July 16th
4. I prefer the AU mod
5. Monarch (I struggle on emperor)

[alexman]

MattH, unfortunately this will require Conquests.

Oh, well. I've been meaning to buy it anyways.

[alexman]

Any ideas about the two human civs? I propose France and the Netherlands. They should be relatively evenly matched on this type of map (pangaea), and even their UU are similar.

Also, this is the best I can do with pairings. Any objections?

1. Nor Me - MotownDennis (AU mod, Emperor)
2. Tarquinius - Krill (AU mod, Monarch)
3. sabrewolf - Andydog (AU mod, Monarch)
4. ZargonX - punkbass2000 (AU mod, Emperor)
5. alexman - jshelr (AU mod, Emperor)
6. snoopy369 - kwpulliam1973 (Stock, Regent)
7. Strollen - Aqualung71 (AU mod, Emperor)
8. Paddy the Scot - smellymummy (AU mod, Monarch)

[jshelr]

just remember, he mumbled to himself....this is an academic exercise....doesn't matter if you get crushed.....

[alexman]

Hey, we are the only ones hoping to finish the game in a month! And besides, Mr. Hoplite rusher, who is crushing whom?

Although I can intuitively grasp the concept of BST faster than Krill, this part is still beyond me.



So I can actually do 16:00-22:00 GMT on a weekday whoich conveniently doesn't overlap MotownDennis' 22:00-4:00 GMT.
