Welcome to the Start of the Civ4 MTDG! :D

The following includes instructions on playing this turn (3960 BC - 4000 BC was needed for password reasons) as well as for all turns in this game.

Here is the turn sending order (note: it is different than the roster sign-up order!):
Loco
Piffle
Aloha
Innovia
Epsilon

So Team Epsilon, you will be receiving the save from Team Innovia (team.innovia AT gmail DOT com), and you will send it to Team Loco (teamloco.delta AT gmail DOT com). Also send a copy to the admins! (emails are in the Team Info thread in the main forum). Please remember that you have 24 hours to play the save once you receive it unless you request an extension. Also, keep in mind that once you have played the save, to record it in the Turn Tracker / Save Info thread in the main MTDG forum.

When saving the turn, please use the default saving convention in game.

Without more talk, your starting location in the map courtesy by Sirian (be sure to thank him!) is attached.

Your password for the save is: The5thLetter

You are free to discuss this, as well as where you should explore, research, settle, etc., but remember: we will not send the starting save to Team Loco until the current Ruleset poll in the main forum is done, so that's a bit of an incentive! ;)

Enjoy the game!

Great! :goodjob:

Here's how I am thinking about organizing the turn discussion:

Thread 1 - Instructions: What the President should do this turn. Only government officials should post here.
Thread 2 - Report & Discussion: What the President did, and what our situation is now. All discussion for the next turn should take place here.

So this thread corresponds to Turn 0 - 4000BC - Report & Discussion.
Once officials have decided on their orders, they should post them in Turn 1 - 3960BC - Instructions (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=167436).

If there isn't much posting in either thread, I may end up combining the 2 threads into 1.

Discussion of city placement (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=166505#post3935229)

PS: You can now just use the default saving convention in game!
