PBEM with a twist (another one)

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.

To say nothing of the Egyptians, Iroquois, and Aztecs.

hey I like the aztecs now. Although if that thing about war weariness is true religious probably isn't that great in multiplayer.

What thing ?

[Hot_Enamel]

There is a rumor that Fraxis felt that humans would like to wage war against each other in mulitplayer more so than in single player against AI.
Therefore they removed war weariness from PTW mulitplayer.
Religeous civs can switch govts easily to avoid war weariness...so therefore religious civs lose one of their main benefits.

Its a rumor only...perhaps its true ? who knows ? I am yet to even have a war using multiplayer.
Perhaps it's just a bug and not intentional ?

I always have.

I was being sarcastic. I would gladly take any of those three.

Interesting about the religious and war weariness thing.

How do we find out - can't someone just write Firaxis and ask?

[Dis]

I have yet to wage a late war in multiplayer. I have in despotism. We'll see I guess.

[Flandrien1]

No war weariness ?
I suppose that means a beeline to democracy ?

[CerberusIV]

Even if no WW everyone will still need to change government twice, once to monarchy/republic and once to democracy so religious will still save a few turns of anarchy.

Attacking another civ whilst it is in anarchy can be a useful tactic against non-religious civs. I would think that human players in MP will be stuck in anarchy longer than AI civs in SP.

[Dis]

one thing I hate about non-religious civs. I don't use them often.

How long does the anarchy last? The one time I played one the anarchy seemed to last forever . I hated that. This shows how unfamiliar I am with non-religious civs . I love my reliogus/miltaristic civs.

still waiting for the final picks. Has anyone heard from them?

Tiberius came back home just few hours ago after being AFK for several days. I have already talked to him - he will be making his pick very shortly. Just give him few more hours, he is currently at work and cannot spend much time on Poly...

[CerberusIV]

I know what I have decided for Betahound and have first and second choices ready depending on what Tiberius picks for Flandrien.

[Hot_Enamel]
