PBEM with a twist (another one)

[CerberusIV]

Awwwww! I was hoping for the English. All the really poor civs will be gone by the time I get mine.

[Beta]

Naw, there'll be planty left by the time you are picking for me. Those useless Egyptians for example will still probably be left on the table.

[Thrumble]

You could always mod the game so that each of you plays the English.

[Flandrien1]

My turn to choose, I suppose.

I give CerberusIV the Spanish to play.

(If he is lucky, he starts right next to Tiberius. )

[Beta]

My turn. Hmmmm. I give Cathy - er - I mean Vondrack ...
.

.... the Russians. (just gotta love that UU...)

The game has a certain European flavour so far.

Next!

Now, this was really naughty. Haven't you noticed where I come from!? Playing Russians, having to call them "my (beloved!?!) Russians", is definitely the most disgusting thing you could have forced me to...



Ok, my turn now, right?

Hot_Enamel, you will hate me forever, as I give thee... the Koreans!

The tension shall hang in the air for some time now, as Tibi will be back online in a couple of days only... at least I think so.


Jesus, playing Russians! Heresy!
I seriously consider playing for a humiliating defeat with them...

[Beta]

Vondrack - sorry - that didn't occur to me at all.

For the sake of out-of-game comraderie, if it is a problem, I can choose another civ. My second and third worst choices did not involve the Koreans, so it would not affect your choice. Let me know.

I did not mean to offend you. It was simply based on my experience with the game and some research I did.

BH, I was just kidding, absolutely no offense taken, really! No problem with Russians at all, I was merely making fun of myself. We do have memories, you know...

I can't wait to start shuffling my free scout around.

Splendid !
That is what I wanted to see !

Even better than asking someone from the USA to play the French.
Or someone from Holland to play the Germans.
Or ...

Oh Man !!!

Vondrack - Thanks for your note. Good civin'.

Turn 1
Hot_enamel declares war on vondrack

[CerberusIV]

This is going well! Betahound should be relieved as I was going to give him the Russians! Still - Greeks, Indians, Mongols... There are a quite a few mediocre and poor civs left for Flandrien and Betahound.

EDIT; I've never actually played as the Spanish so to keep in the spirit of things I shan't practice before the game starts.

[Flandrien1]

Spirit of things actually IS getting to know the 'lesser' civs.
So start practicing, Cerberus !
