Nice to get some really good news about terrain, for a change.

Nothing new in F11. No one else has hit size 2 yet.

Yes, it looks promising to the North. Wait till you get the shots.

Turn done. Being sent. Shots on the way after that.

The terrain situation is developing nicely. With Flood Plains and a Wheat Grassland tile, we should be able to expand quite quickly. Plus, those Hills allows for some nice production once we hit Monarchy. Finally, a big concentration of two Luxuries means we've got something to offer other teams. Excellent.

But I didn't expect to see ocean NE
The peninsula is bigger then I thought (S)
Am I right in thingking, our borders will expand on the next turn?

I sure hope the level didn't get reset to chieftain

That would be quite disappointing. Who fricking needs 2 lux's then. And we have a near monopoly on two/

How do we know if the level has been reset? Is that a bug or is it someone pressing the wrong button, ala the accel. prod. mess?

edit: I guess we can tell due to the happiness level, I was just wondering if it said chieftain someplace.

It usually says "custom" in the left panel when you load the PBEM, if someone has altered the normal regent setting.

Altough it usually does not work, when you try setting the level to something other than Regent.

For example : me & my brother had to restart our PBEM 3 times, because the level was still regent in 2 first, however, for some unknown reason, in the third time the level was actually Emperor.
This was not nice, because we had to play for many turns before actually noticing that the level was not right in 2 first games.

Wasnt the "always Chieftain" bug only present in HotSeat games ? And the "always Regent" bug in PBEM. If so, we could assume that we are on Regent level.

In the Euro-PBEM game, it looks as if the system somehow kicked us into either Chieftain or Warlord. I won't have confirmation of which until I grow to size 4.

I have confirmed myself that the difficulty gets kicked no matter how you load the game. I have reported it.

So what level are we on now? Does it always drop down to Chieftain?

[notyoueither]

Regent, as far as I can tell.

well, that's not so bad, aren't happiness levels the same in monarch and regent? or just slightly different.

If it dropped to chieftain, then that would suck.



On an aside:

Is anyone else suprised that we haven't seen a single goody hut yet? it seems to me that I would usually see one by now.
I hope that it didn't randomly draw no barbs. though if it did, then I'm glad we went egyptian.
