New PBEM Game

Tom Red · December 16, 2002, 14:48

Anyone else want to play PBEM ? I'm thinking 4-6 players on a medium size world ?

Argh · December 16, 2002, 15:40

Yep, I'll go for it. What rules do you have in mind?

If I was you, I'd try and limit it to people in the same, or very close timezones, so that it doesnt take forever to get al lthe turns done.

If you want me, I'd like the player name: Argh, my email address for turns is jamesowen@eurobell.co.uk and my timezone is GMT. Oh, and my version of PTW is 1.14

If I can pick my Civ I'd like the Celts please, but I really don't mind going random.

So, want me?

ColDark · December 17, 2002, 07:07

I'm in too if you'll have me.

I am GMT, also with PTW 1.14f.

I'll take English as a preference (although I'm Welsh).

I'm away from Wednesday until Saturday 21st, so won't be able to take turns until then but after that I should be able to rattle a turn a day.

Great - OK lets make it a european game then - I'd like to be Egyptians. I'll wait till we get a couple more players.

BTW - how did you get the 1.14 patch? I can only find a US version which will not work with european versions ?

ColDark · December 17, 2002, 08:03

I downloaded mine from the following, you want the PTW patch for EU English

Here's the link

thanks ColDark

Tom Red · December 18, 2002, 10:09

Right I'll start the game tommorrow with the three of us - but hopefully we'll get one more before then:

Tom Red: Egyptians
Argh: Celts
ColDark: English

World Size: Normal
Diffculty: Regent

Is that OK with everyone?

ColDark · December 18, 2002, 10:22

Phew just caught me, as I'm practically out the door. Early damper I'm afraid.

I'm away until Saturday 21st, so I won't be able to take my turn until then. But look forward to it otherwise.

Cheers

Let me beg to get in. I'm in Canada, but I work very early in the morning to mid afternoon. So, it's really like I'm in Bermuda. I could easily be the last man on the chain and I'm reliable as hell.

jshelr@aol.com

PS, I would like to play as America or Iriquois.

Tom Red · December 18, 2002, 12:44

OK - I'm persauded - (anyone not convinced - drop me a line)

Omnipa · December 18, 2002, 15:13

Are you still taking colonists?

omnipa@sbcglobal.net

(willing to play almost anyting)

Argh · December 18, 2002, 19:45

Ah what the heck, I have no objections to anyone the game organiser wants to let in.

Are we just using the default, standard rules?

alexx · December 19, 2002, 04:52

Hi.
I'd like to join your pbem game!
I live in poland and I have cable connection at home so I can play up to few turns a day.

my nick
alexx - henry15@interia.pl
I'd like to play as Babylonian

ColDark · December 19, 2002, 07:47

Just checking in on my sisters computer (no Civ3/PTW game disk so cant do turns).

Only minor objection I have is too many players make turns come round slower. But I'll still play with with as many as Tom Red wants to allow.

ColDark

Tom Red · December 19, 2002, 08:04

OK - so the final list is:

1. Tom Red : Egyptians
2. Argh - Celts
3. ColDark - English
4. jshelr - America
5. Alex - Babylonian

Sorry Omnipa - we trying to keep it european - and 5 players total so the game isn't too big.

Default/Standard Rules
Pangea
Random age and water %age
Barbarians roaming
Difficulty: regent
Temperature: temperate.

Any questions?

Tom Red · December 19, 2002, 08:12
