Easygoing C3C PBEM game

[Andydog]

[Edit: Game is now full]

Hi folks,

I'm looking to start up an easygoing C3C PBEM epic game.

By easygoing, I mean a turn or so a day, sometimes less. It's the sort of game for those who have a bit of spare time before or after work - not for those who like to play for 4 hour stints twice a week and the like.

I was thinking:
Small world
4 players, choose your own civ
Monarch
All victory conditions,
Culture flipping on
Random everything else.

I'd also be keen for us all to install the beta patch when that becomes available later this week.

If this sounds like you, please post your interest and email me.

Bring it on!

I'm keen drop me a mail on mickeyj@mickeyj.eclipse.co.uk

Hey Andydog....I would be interested in joining this game. I'll mail you when I get home from work. michaeldnelson A T msn D O T com

Hi there,

I am interested. Not sure if you are interested in someone in my timezone etc. Sending you an email with my details in case accepteable.

[Andydog]

Excellent! We now have 4 people.

Now all that's left to do is to decide on Civs and the best order in which to play.

MikeyJ and myself are in London, Shogun Gunner is in the USA, and Paddy the Scot is in Australia.

Are we therefore happy with: Me -> MikeyJ -> Shogun Gunner -> Paddy the Scot? This would seem the most sensible order if we all have day jobs.

As for civs, so far Shogun Gunner has requested Chinese or Greeks, and I will request Persians or Greeks.

[Paddy]

Happy to be English

[Mickeyj]

(ponder ponder) what to be?

[Mickeyj]

Gents I think I'll go with India.

Need me to toss a coin to see who'll be the Greeks?

[Andydog]

India huh? Well well well.

No need to toss a coin, I believe Shogun Gunner's first choice was the Chinese - Is that correct Shogun Gunner?

If so, we are as follows:

Andydog - Persia
Mikeyj - India
Shogun Gunner - Chinese
Paddy the Scot - England

If everyone's happy with that I'll start the random game at 19:00 GMT tonight! I'll also send out a group email so we have each other's email addresses.

I suggest we post in this thread when turns have been emailed?

MickeyJ, I too find it interesting that you chose India.

I have just finished a story, at Civ 3 stories, of a war I had with India recently.
Here is a link if you would like a look... People of the Valley
You may understand then that I have some interesting Indian memories...

Andydog, bring it on matey...

[Mickeyj]

Well considering the Indians recent cricket exploits I thought they'd be a shoe in, to conquer the world.

[Shogun Gunner]

Yes, China was my first choice. Seems like a good game shaping up!

hahahahaha

They have done so well, what was it one test so far.

Looks like you and i are getting off to a great start before the first save rolls off the assembly line

[Mickeyj]

It is Christmas after all!!!

I've an office Christmas party tonight so don't expect the first save till late.

I'm looking forward to this, I haven't indulged in a PBEM yet.

[Paddy]

hahaha enjoy the party


I am sure that you will enjoy the PBEM, as long as you have some patience in games that run for months
