Strat forum PBEM 2

alexman says he would be glad to help

You should probably send your preferred order to him along with map settings, etc. Go for it guys.

Offer still stands, if you want a neutral party to play turns for someone temporarily away, I'll do it. I'll also look at the start and let everyone know if someone gets totally screwed. Given all the time required to see this to a conclusion, you want everyone to have a reasonable chance.

We just need Kon to let us know his preferred playtime and for Dave and BRC to hash out the 5-10pm order.

[BRC]

If I have a 2-3 hour block, that should be enough time. I have evening sports a couple of times a week at school, but they only last 1 hour. I can let Dave choose whether he wants to go before me, or after. I might even be able to push back my start time to 4:00 p.m. CST.

[DaveMcW]

Here's my proposed turn order:

1. Konquest: 5-9 CST evenings
2. BRC: 5-10 CST evenings
3. DaveMcW: 6-11 CST evenings
4. Ducki: 9-12 CST evenings

Since we are all on at about the same time we could even set up some fast-play rounds if we wanted to.

Map:
Small, Archipelago, 70% water
Default climate settings?
Monarch
No AI players
Roaming barbs

Civs:
Konquest: Babylonians
BRC: Ottomans
DaveMcW: Greeks
Ducki: Egyptians

(Edit: ducki gets Egypt and Konquest gets Babs)

[ducki]

That sounds great.

I'll go with Egypt this time 'round.

[Konquest02]

That sounds good, except that I'll play the Babs (still not familiar enough with the vikings.)
My plaing time depends on my school schedule, but I like as it is now.
A moderator would be great, and I don't care who it is.

[ducki]

Does anyone else find our choice of civs interesting?
Not a single warmonger, or even militaristic, civ!
Religious, Industrious, Scientific, and Commercial.

Curious!

[alexman]

The game is ready.
Could someone PM me the e-mail address of Konquest so I can send it to him?

More specifically...

3 Scientific
2 Industrious
2 Religious
1 Commercial

Looks like a bunch of builders to me.

And alexman, I will be very disappointed if you didn't give me enough land to take advantage of my commercialness!

[BRC]

Just from looking at the Strat game 1 with Alexman and company, they are going really fast. What are we planning on doing? 1 round a day. Just making sure.

[ducki]

We're going to try for one a day.

And if something happens to take me away for more than a day, I'll have jshelr fill in for me.

[BRC]

We're going to try for one a day.

Ok. I don't see any reason why I wouldn't be able to do that, but my life won't end if it doesn't happen, no matter what the reason. I want us to have fun with this game, and not worry about it. I know that Konquest and I have school, and you have a kid. Nobody should have to wait around for the SAVE when they have important things to do. That said, when are we planning on starting this. We will also need E-mail addresses.

[Konquest02]

Mine is julien_marchand***hotmail.com. Please have fun replacing the *** by what you like, in order to get a valid email adress. Let's end SPAM now!!! I get enough already!

I should be able to play the first turn tomorrow morning...

--Kon--

[ducki]

I've PMed my email to Dave so he can send to me when he's done, assuming we're doing the order listed above.

[BRC]

PM'ed mine to Konquest. I need Dave's.


p.s. I work tomorrow at 3:00 P.M. CST, so if you guys want to keep playing, I would like you to send it to Dominae or jshelr.
