Naval PBEM - Huge, Pre-Made, Rich, Islands, No Corruption, No Tech Trading, 6 Players

[Harovan]

Wait, doesn't this remove the traits as well?

[GhengisFarbâ„¢]

I don't think any of the units should have Trigger GA. I use units as units not as a one time GA trigger.

[Harovan]

So shall we have only wonder driven GAs?

[alexman]

Unless I hear otherwise, in half an hour I'm sending the save to Eli with no UUs or unit GA triggers, with trait starting techs, and your agreed research rate of 280.

[Adagio]

We could just have this:

Each player may choose (e.g.) 3 different UU's, that way, players doesn't get dissadvantages because of this (unless they choose to)... ("3" could also be some other number... but I think 3 would be a nice number )

[alexman]

I made a couple of changes.

1) Galleys need two movement points to enter ocean tiles, otherwise the player with the GL will have an enormous advantage on this map. For flavor, I added the same limitation to ironclads.

2) The luxuries are not exactly as you specified in another thread, but you don't need to worry because they are balanced. I just now found that second thread, so I am getting all this extra information that I didn't have when I first checked the map. As it is now you now have access to just one luxury on your main island, but will quickly find three more to settle/trade on other nearby islands.

What's the final story with the UUs?

Also, do you really want lethal bombard? I missed that requirement the first time around as well. If so, is it for all bombard units, even ground units?

[alexman]

OK, since you're all silent, let's start.
Eli's got the save.

Let me know if there are any problems.

[Adagio]

We're still missing some emails... I can't find CerberusIV's adress...

Yes

Especially for aircraft and ships. It will make the use of carriers and normal ships much more worthwile.

[alexman]

OK the save you have includes those changes.

[Harovan]

Thank you very much, alexman.

Now, gentlemen, let's start this game. Eli, you should have ormuzd's email, he posted it earlier in this thread. ormuzd has my email, I have ADG's, CerberusIV posted his too. GF?

Eli, you wanted to start a new turntracker thread.

Awaiting the save. Guess we stick with 1.14f for a while.

Just wanted to say:

From Sunday, until Tuesday (maybe later), I wont be able to play my turn, because I'm moving out...
So it doesn't seem like I'll be needing Alva's help, since it's only for a couple of days... I hope
