  • Begginer PBEM

    Hi there.

    Im looking to make a PBEM without to much level to take me out at the fifthy turn

    Even when Im not a begginer, I never played against other persons, so I assume that the thing will be hard enough.

    Anyone wanting to play with me?

    Most PBEMS have a moderator that sets things up on a "fair" map which usually has people far enough apart that the chance of getting wiped out by turn 50 are very very slim.

    Also, knowing that a proximate neighbor is rare, most of the best players focus on infrastructure early and not military.

    Personally I never saw the point of early conquest of a human player anyway. Usually the cost in units and time and support is more than the resulting captured bases are worth. At year 50 I still want to focus on tech and crawlers.

    Oh and I'm not up for this game at the moment but I could be interested in a couple of months ( so for your next one). BUt give it a couple of days and you should have some takers. I recommend 4 humans as optimum.

      Oh and in the ladies team party game, there is a player 'drow21" who is a beginner and who has expressed interest in playing another. He plays his turns reasonably fast as well( Note that that game went over 100 turns without any human attacking another and we had no computer controlled factions)

                        If there's space I'd like to sign up.

                        I have never played PBEM before, and I suck pretty hard at single player, but I put my name down all the same.

                          Someone knows how to set up a game?

                            I could try, but usually have issues once it passed on to the next player

                            please post:

                              Would ideally like to play Hive, but don't really mind if someone else wants them.
