Newbie at CivII desires MP Game Partner
I'm new to the CivII MP format, but not MP in general with Turn-based games (Alpha Centauri, Alien Crossfire). Anyone want to play a MP game with a newbie CivII player? .

I have the original CivII patched up the MGE, thanks to Cedric Greene's patch. Also have ToT.

You can contact me either here or at:

Northswordsman@yahoo.com

Thanks!

I'm glad you decided to give the MP forum a chance...

Do you have ICQ. Most of us use it to set up games. The topped thread contains players ICQ numbers. If you don't have it, you can load it for free at ICQ.com

It's not only important for setting up games... but for actually playing. It is used to pass IP addresses to fellow players and is used when technical problems occur.

Also... you should probably list the times and days you are interested in playing. It should help your response rate

ICQ is 136163417

Available most days. I do prefer pbem rather than ip games, I have found tcp/ip games to be more hassle and trouble than they are worth, at least in smac/smacx. Have no idea if CivII is smoother.

Scottie, trying to contact you via icq links under your name. No success. Do they work?

While we have had a few problems, most of the time, it works real well if everybody has the same version. If you haven't loaded the the latest patch, you can find it here at Apolyton.
Go to http://apolyton.net/civ2/
and go to patches... it should be on the fourth page if I remember right
