New World Sceinario PBEM

[Shavlor]

I am planning on making a world map based scienario. There would be 5 or 6 civs each with 5 cities with 3 pop no improvements and no extra advances. This will use standard files so no need for painstaking mod loading. Please sign up if you intreasted. and give Civ name and leader. I am unsure of how to spilt up the world as of yet so any ideas would be usefully.

[Arthur]

I'm interested in playing. I be the German's. Leader name: Col. Klink.

e-mail: Arthur@cc.usu.edu

[Shavlor]

Ok good to have you Arthur.
I also need to know where you are from or when you check your email most often.
I don't suggest any other players to be either French, Spainish, Greese, or Roman since they would be very close to Germany.

[Arthur]

I live in Logan, UT. I check my e-mail usually around 12noon, 3pm, 2am (GMT -7).

[Jon]

Hi Shavlor

I'll take a crack as the Japanese.

Name Jonihito

The rest of my details you know.

[Keygen]

No Greeks? Damn, I'll take the Americans then. I should be President Keygen of the Americans.
Yes that's right, I'm in. ;-)
Send the map to be able for any suggestion.

[Shavlor]

Ok good to have yoy Jon and Keygen.
I am hoping for one more player. I am wanting to be the Brazillians but I will give it up to anyone else. I think if we get just one person they should be in Africa. So that each person gets their own contenet.
Questions:
Do we want any AIs?
Do we want any Goods?
Do we want any Goody Huts?

Please answer these questions either by email or post.
Keygen I am going to use the Apolyton map but not the Apolyton mod. Once we get one more player I will make the map and send it out.

[Jon]

Hi Shavlor

My votes are:

[Arthur]

I'd say no AI's
Goods "5"
Huts (don't care)

[Shavlor]

Ok before anyone else tries to join we are full. I really don't want more than 6 players the game always crawls. Now the votes for the goods and goody huts and AIs.

My Votes:
AI: Yes
Huts: No
Goods: middle

Note on Goods: Since this is not a random map I will be placing the goods. I will try to balances them out and make them semi-realist.

AIs:
4 No
1 Yes (I thought it would be fun but...)
1 Undecided
There will be no AIs

Goody Huts:
2 Don't care
2 None
2 Undecided

I beleive that there shouldn't be since too many times I have seen people get extremely good techs and get a hugh advantage.

Goods:
3 middle
1 max
1 yes
1 undecided


If you haven't voted yet then please do so soon or if you wish too make coments then please do so soon.

Mobius Since there is already some one in europe I was wondering if you would be so good as to switch over to Africa.

I am now making the world map placing Mobius in Africa. I will then send it out to each of you for question. If you want a different location of cities more goods blah blah blah then please post here or email me. In the situation of different locations use either modified screen shot or a changed map. in both cases you will have to email me the changes.

[MOBIUS]

As the mighty Thor sat down to feast, rubbing his hands in glee at the anticipation of another odyssey of plunder and conquest on the high seas, his body shook in a terrible spasm...

With a gasp of surprised exclamation (also to be his last breath), Thor's eyes registered the brutal fire hardened tip of the Zulu War Spear protruding from his chest - then as he slumped forward, the last words he heard before his long journey to Valhalla were:

"We have done Shaka's bidding, let us get home - it is freezing in this benighted land!"

[Shavlor]

Ok the scenario ver 0.1 is made and sent
A few notes about the scenario.
First: there will be one phalanx in each city. I didn't put any units in in case people wanted their cities moved.
Second: If anyone doesn't like where I placed a city I am willing to move it as long as you show me the new location and it is in the near vacinity.
Third: there already was goods on the map so I simply left the goods as they were.
Fourth: there are no goody huts right now but if the majority desire them they will be added.
Fifth: The play order is as follows and can be changed if nessicary (obviously before we start)
1 - Shavlor - Brazilains
2 - Arthur - Germans
3 - Keygen - Americans
4 - Krzysztof - Assyrains
5 - Mobius - Zulu
6 - Jon - Japanesse
Sixth: Some more voting is nessicary.

The votes are as follows:
1: what difficulty level? (I was thinking king or Diety)
2: Any barbarians?

Last note: Even if you if you think the cities are in fine location and everything else is fine I suggest that you look at the land closely and maybe try playing aggainst the AI to get a feel for the land. Make sure you plan where you are going to be building your next couple of cities. Also there is no grace period whatsoever so if you want to you can attack your neighbor immedately. I would not suggest this since production is very useful early on in the game and units cost production.

If any of you have any input please post or email me.

[Arthur]

I vote for a difficulty of King and for barbarians.
