  • Trial by Trait - Team PBEM

    This is the tracking thread for the Trial by Trait - Team PBEM, in which 3 teams of 2 players will endeavour to pool their resources and exploit their individual traits to the best advantage of their team and out-civ their powerful opponent teams in any way possible (within ethical guidelines!).

    Players, teams and civs in play order are:

    MrWhereItsAt GMT+12 (Rome) - granvisimo at student dot vuw dot ac dot nz (phew!)
    Aqualung71 GMT+8 (Carthage) – akwalung71 at yahoo dot com
    Krill GMT (Arabia) – chris at jackos dot f2s dot com
    Kloreep GMT-6 (Persia) – ben at surveypoint dot com
    1889 GMT-7 (Babylon) – klemnrussell at cableone dot net
    Longshot GMT-8 (Greece) – bapess at adelphia dot net

    Game setup: C3C 1.22, standard size map, pangea, 70% water, regent difficulty, roaming barbs, climate/temperature/age random. All victory conditions apply except for regicide, elimination, VP scoring, etc. Cultural conversions and SGL’s are on. Culturally linked start locations are on (fingers crossed).

    Communications: Unlimited between partners from the start. It’s acceptable to direct an opposing player in the early game in order to meet you so you can trade, etc. However, specific detailed map information is not to be traded until available in-game.

    Other Etiquette: General guidelines as used in the Iron Civer tournament to be followed regarding exploits, except that team members are expected and encouraged to co-operate any way they can within the guidelines. Gifting of cities is allowed, however this must not result in teleporting units (same rule for gifting to a team-mate).

    The first save will be sent shortly. Totally random map, no meddling or tweaking so don't blame me!

            My idea of unlimited contact between team partners from the start of the game included sending each other screenshots of the map - any objections to this? (haven't done it yet).

              I like it. I was thinking about it earlier, but decided against it since the others would not know. If everyone knows we can do it, though...

                I figured the no-map-trading-till-Nav applied to teammates as well, but no objection if we make an exception.

                    Danger Will Robinson!

                    PRex - you sent me your save instead. I didn't realist until I had already opened it, so I have seen your start surroundings. However, I had not looked at the minimap, so I still don't know WHERE you are.

                    Please resend...

                      Wow, that brings back childhood memories!


                      Ok, in the absence of any objections, I hereby declare it's acceptable to send your team partner screen shots.

                        what I do wrong so I wont repeat it


                        Here is what I did

                        I opened it, played, hit save and exit using the same file name given to me.

                        I thought it was that simple





                        getting ready to reopen and do it again, good thing I kept it

                          Oh hell yes!

                          I'd suggest everyone keep all their saves going back at least a few turns. Personally I keep all of mine, but I wouldn't ask anyone else to, especially a PBEM slut like Paddy.

                              When I went to reload the game


                              I get file may be corrupt, will not load

                              It worked fine the first time
