Con, as long as you tell me when you kill my units and/or attack my cities, and when my units kill yours, i guess i don't care that much.

But that's pretty much the bare minimum for me, especially in an elimination game. I'm not interested in playing a "catch him by surprise by sniping off his units" game, nor do I go for bongo's "take advantage of the flaw in the rules" strategy. This is a tournament game, and should be played as such.

I dont think you need a ton of rules to play a tourney.

And looking at bongos view this way is kind of unfair. He is a dam good Civ player and I dont think he would deliberately use exploits to win a game.

he has adapted his play to the limitations of PBEM and you want to make PBEM more like SP.

Both sides have there good points and strong points.

If Im going to declare war Ill let ya know

But come on you will see my units next to yours, especially in this age all the way to late medievil where most PBEMS are already long decided.

Con, I don't suggest Bongo would cheat. BUT, he has explicitly said (in the ICR-30% thread) that he takes advantage of this. It's not a way I prefer to play, is what i'm saying.

And I won't necessarily see your units -- you could attack with a half dozen horsemen, they'd slaughter any one unit that's producable now. (That's roughly bongo's strategy from my understanding of it.)

All I ask is that when you attack me (or anyone), you email me and/or post (depending on the agreement, i think in ICR it's better to email or PM) that you killed my X, and you used Y unit(s) to do so. I don't like the fact that this game is too stupid to tell me what happened during combat, and indeed prefer, in this aspect, something closer to the SP game.

I don't want to "make PBEM closer to SP" in general -- just that in SP you don't have this flaw, and in PBEM you do, so I want to eliminate the flaw, which pretty much everyone agrees is a flaw.

Turn sent btw.

Physically things seem to be ok with the leg. Still some other questions in the air right now. We shall have to see.

Good to hear MFC, Off to Arnelos, same year as above.

So, are y'all agreed to supply a brief combat report if the losing defender says something like "where in hades did my SoD get to?" (level 1), or do you wish to debate going completely blind (level 0)?

It looks like the 1-2 options are in effect (2 yea, 1 nay, 1 abstain). I'll edit them into the first post unless anyone has further objections...

[Arnelos]

Level 1 would be preferable to Level 0.

A blow-by-blow accounting would be awful nice, but if con is too lazy, then con is too lazy.

Dam right I am.

If I wanted to play accounting I would gotten an accounting game.

Level 0 for me
