Internal PBEM Game #3 - anything goes

[Arnelos]

Togas,

Since your "I can't do without it" trait seems to be industrious...

Americans
French
Persians
Ottomans
Chinese

As for your second favorite trait... dunno, but I think you like religious and Egypt is already taken You could take the Persians, but that would be too easy The Americans are a powerhouse (industrious+expansionist) in the very early game, but their expansionist trait dies out. I don't know what about playing the Romans you didn't like (probably the militaristic and the early UU?), so perhaps the Persians or the Chinese aren't so great for you anyways That leaves the French (great traits, lousy UU), the Ottomans (perhaps overpowered AND you said you just felt out-of-place playing them or something like that ), and the Americans (great traits, lousy UU).

Personally, I'd think the French or Americans would be your top picks for what little I know of your playstyle, but then again it's your playstyle... so pick!

[Togas]

Right now I'm between the Babylonians (never played them, but they might be fun), Persians & Ottomans (fun bullies with different GAs).

Right now I'm reading strat articles on all three to see which sways me more.

Hey, if you still need someone for that 8th slot, I'll take it

Welcome Crousto

[Arnelos]

Crousto, you're in

You'll be between astrologix and Oliverfa on the playorder just due to geography unless you guys think Oliverfa should go before Crousto due to Crousto's posted times for play.

[Arnelos]

Geesh... I didn't check out the strategy forums to make my civ choice... I just picked a civ that I like

Sersiously, this game is for fun

[Togas]

I finnally came to a decision. Give me The Ottomans.
I'll be Sultan Togas.

--Togas

p.s. What color scheme are they? If it conflicts with one of the current schemes, give me black.

[Arnelos]

Orange. It should not conflict.

The only possible conflict is that the Arab yellowish color is similar, but not the same as, the Egyptian yellow. This would make telling them apart somewhat annoying. I may do something about it by adjusting the Arab color to slightly more beige/tan when I make the game.

I'll go make the game once I'm done posting here.

Then I've got to get out... I'll be gone much of the evening, btw.

[Arnelos]

*bump*

I am currently starting this game.

I'll post a new thread for handling the actual game with the play-order and other information at the top.
