PBEM slow !

[Jimboscott]

Hi,

I would like to set up a slow PBEM. one turn per week per player. you should have the 1.04f patch and check your mail everyday.

Thanks, to leave a message in the forum or to send e mail to me if you are interessed.

I think Civ3 is a 500+ turn game, so you might want to start out with more than one turn a week. Like a fast start. maybe even a hot day, where gamers will try to play many turns, then when it gets more complex to slow it down. I could go for that.
btw just got PTW today. Nice, just for the inhancement of the single player game. Didn't know I could just continue the game I am playing and have the new movements and additions. kewl

edit to add: I am having problems with my single Civ 3 game freezing in PTW, but have heard it is not suppose to be any problem. And others have continued the game in PTW without problems.

I could go for a slow game.

is the game on? i could go fer a game!

This would be good, but I agree the first couple of turns should be "hot days" where we play, pass, play, etc.

Waiting a whole week to just hit the "end turn" button because your only warrior got killed by a barbarian uprising would be a let down.

Glad I am not playing with Jimbo hes too lucky.
just joking, have a great time you lucky dog.

I don't think I am interested in playing a slow e-mail game. I am playing another and it is slow enuff already.

How about GodKing?
Are we going to have AI?

My favorites:
Wet, Temperate, Middle Aged (whatever its called)
(Those are map settings not my preferences in the opposite sex)

Mod suggestion: Change the irrigation enhancement on Plains from 1 to 2 (irrigating a Plains tile adds +2 food instead of the standard +1)

It's more realistic and makes for more even gameplay.

[UnOrthOdOx]

I've never made r useda mod before, perhaps you can start it if people want that?

Ill ask GK, and am open to 4 AI (one for each of us). Im a random all player, so maps don't make much difference to me. I am rather enjoying the mass regicide, though.

[GhengisFarbâ„¢]

That one little change to plains irrigation makes a HUGE difference in even gameplay. I've tried a lot of things but that really equals out the starting positons which makes a MP game better as someone doesn't drop out early because their falling way behind.

Mass regicide would be fine by me and so would 4 AI.

What civs does everyone want to be? What civs should we have as the AI?

[moondoggi]

So you can mod the game, and the save wont alter other saves? Mass regicide I'll give it a try. I would prefer random tribes.

[GhengisFarbâ„¢]

I don't have a problem with random tribes or anything else but I would really like the "wet" setting because it allows for more rivers.

[Zero]

how many players in this game total?

[Zero]

lets not mod the map, if we keep the map on "wet" mode the irrigation will work it out. Beside if you wana go fer absolute fairness we can play on symetrical maps (like long distance relationship etc) but even those maps aren't exactly tile by tile fair.

As for civ choice, I'll have to think about it. I'm thinking maybe carth, china or possibly japan.
