epic game PBEM with multi-turn-sessions

[EliitMees]

sorry guys, but i think one more PBEM game would be too much for me, especially WWII scenario that requires lots of time to take turn.
i'm playing 15 games already and feeling like i have to stop while i still have some time for life

[Redboy]

If there is still room, i would be VERY interested in joining.

[sabrewolf]

eliit, pity, but i guess 15 games are quite a lot
are all daily rounds in average?

redboy, would you want to join the sid-game WW2 scenario which smellymummy proposed?

[smellymummy]

i proposed the ww2 pacific scenario game?

[sabrewolf]

sorry, it was CM... my bad!

[smellymummy]

an age of discovery pbem could be fun too

[ChrisiusMaximus]

So lets do both

[sabrewolf]

come to think of it... a regular sid game could be fun too. who survives the longest because all humans will be rushing towards the great library

but in such a game, the map would have to be set up by someone to make sure we all would have equal starts and more important... starts good enough to survive the AI bullying

[Redboy]

Yah i would be interested. Actually I would DEFINATLY be interested, but I would still really like to play in an epic game in addition.

[Redboy]

that last reply was for saberwolf btw.

[sabrewolf]

you seem motivated and dedicated
i don't know about the others, but imho you can be the 4th player in the WW2 scenario.
if the others have no objection, i'll start a new thread with this scenario.

about an epic PBEM game: why don't you start one? open a new thread in this forum with your ideas preinform us here (). starting a PBEM game is no problem.. all you need to know is who plays when. that's what you can figure out in the pregame discussion

[Redboy]

that would make me China right? Woe to he who enrages the chinese Dragon

[sabrewolf]

that's not how i meant it when i said 4th player (i was thinking 4th player in the group, after smellymummy, chrisiusmaximus and me).

but you brought up an issue which i hadn't thought about:
we have have to play in a certain succession, and so is the scenario (netherlands, US, commonwealth, china, (japan)).
we're likely going to play
chrisiusmaximus --> sabrewolf --> redboy --> smellymummy (or the other way around for the 2 north americans)

if i start the game, that would make
sabrewolf=netherlands
redboy=US
smellymummy=commonwealth
chrisiusmaximus=china
or (less likely)
sabrewolf=netherlands
smellymummy=US
redboy=commonwealth
chrisiusmaximus=china

i'll test later on if the succession can be chosen more freely...

[ChrisiusMaximus]

welcome aboard Redboy

[Redboy]

Wow, actually that takes a load of my mind. As the Chinese I have only ever been able to hold everything till the end (with great difficulty and swearing) and that most assuradly was not on SID difficulty. How does splitting the US affect what the players hold? IE Who has the Fleet, Which cities are owned by who?
