i need one more player!!!! to be persia

hey i am sorry for the last PBEM, but i jsut fixed my computer and i decided to make a new one, but this time it would be different, as last time it took forever, this time the game would be as:
-all 4 players start w/ exactly 13 cities
-pangea map
-one spearman on every city
-capital comes w/ temple, barracks, granary
-regiside
-capture the princess
-all victory conditions allowed (but domination)
-speed production
-lower corruption level

if yall want to play tell me here,
if not still tell me to get one, game starts when i get all 4 players and i finsih the map.

playable civs
japan (me)
carthage
persia
china

I'll play with you (again) if they don't want to stalin. I will take the Carthaginians.

stalin006
Dec 16, 2002, 07:52 PM
ok wildfire, lets give tehm a few more days, so u have the carthaginians reserved.

stalin006
Dec 16, 2002, 07:53 PM
oh and u still get spearman as defences in every city in the begining so u dont get a giant advantage if i put ur special unit in every city

WildFire
Dec 16, 2002, 08:21 PM
Darn ;). Sounds good though. One question: Why wait till Friday?

stalin006
Dec 16, 2002, 08:50 PM
well i am waiting for the otehr guys to show up. but well...lets wait till wednsday.

WildFire
Dec 16, 2002, 09:03 PM
Sounds good. Can't wait to start with this accelerated start. But does that mean you know where everyones cities are? Or can everyone see the whole map?

stalin006
Dec 16, 2002, 09:16 PM
well everyone starts w/ tehir cities, when i make the scenario i make it all in equal terms, and put it as player one city etc, so i dont know wher i am starting, but u start as in anygame, but w/ 13 cities, and ull eventually trade maps, is a regular game, but faster to stop the annoying 50 turns until it gets good time

WildFire
Dec 16, 2002, 09:20 PM
Is accelerated production gonna be on?

Borealis
Dec 16, 2002, 11:41 PM
I already have two PBEM games going, and with Moo3 coming out, I'll give my spot up to WildFire. The format does sound fun- maybe I'll play in a future one. :)

Heya Stalin,

I would love to play :)

If thats ok, I would like to play China

Quillan
Dec 17, 2002, 03:32 PM
WHy wouldn't we pick up where we left off? Isn't it an advantage for you to know where everyone's cities are?

NO matter though, i'm not interested in any more PBEM games, they are entirely too unreliable and slow, i'll stick to real MP games.

Good luck to all, take care, and hopefully i'll see you in MP

jshelr
Dec 19, 2002, 07:14 AM
Game looks like good fun. You guys can get very rapid turnover from me by sending to two addresses

jshelr@aol.com

or russell.sheldon@bmonb.com

Particularly if I'm on the road, the second address becomes critical. So, if we are trading, or you just want to flame me after the immortals arrive, use both places.;)

WildFire
Dec 19, 2002, 08:13 PM
I would love too send it but dont have Essex's email address.

Sent -- there may have been a problem. I'm checking to make sure everything is ok

I've resent the turn to wildfire and we should be ok. Waiting to hear back from him if there is still a problem.

jshelr
Dec 24, 2002, 02:01 PM
here is a post of the turn for wildfire to play. we are having some strange problem with my email saying a file is sent and his email not receiving it

WildFire
Dec 24, 2002, 02:03 PM
I found it in the email. Strange :hmm:

Here is the game.

My email is messed up. I can reviece the saves (i guess) but it wont let me send them.

WildFire
Dec 26, 2002, 08:47 PM
i pressed control-shift-m and the delete button so that you won't see my secret plans :p. So whats with the no-sea?

stalin006
Dec 27, 2002, 07:36 AM
there are suppost to be around 4 to 5 cities there, well dont ask me, are u sure they were not there at the begining o fht egame?

WildFire
Dec 27, 2002, 11:04 AM
The cities ARE there. I just made it so that you guys aren't able to. Believe me, i have 13 cities or something. I just dont have some sea squares :hmm:

stalin006
Dec 27, 2002, 11:07 AM
i dunno
the editor made it a random map, well there are some to the south of ur pic and a couple to teh west

WildFire
Dec 27, 2002, 11:10 AM
Well yeah, but this means that it probably WASN'T random and someone made the map, and that someone knows the whole map because it is saved on their computer in the PTW editor!

stalin006
Dec 27, 2002, 12:15 PM
DUH! then how can we all start w/ 13 cities? i asked a friend to make it.

essexloony2
Dec 27, 2002, 12:49 PM
Turn taken, trade on!

Sent to Stalin.

WildFire
Dec 27, 2002, 01:01 PM
Then if your friend made it stalin, it isn't random! I just hope he didn't forget anything else important.

stalin006
Dec 27, 2002, 01:17 PM
well he told me teh map was random and taht he had to add some land here adn there so all cities would fit, dont worry, all resources and luxuries are there.

stalin006
Dec 27, 2002, 01:32 PM
tech accepted and sent.
carthage woudl u like to trade a luxury? now that we have open roads?

WildFire
Dec 27, 2002, 02:55 PM

jshelr
Dec 28, 2002, 10:05 AM
Guys

Did everyone else understand that there are no settlers in the build que? I suppose it was my own fault for not looking carefully. But the lack of a settler build option is pretty unusual and, at this point, basically means I'm probably screwed.:(

I will, of course, play on to keep the game in motion.

eh? o crap, i guess my friend took it off by accident.......well he told me teh entire continent is entirely populated, but if yall want we can cancel it.

jshelr

I'll go with whatever the group wants on the settler issue. But if there is a way to turn settlers back on, I would eagerly vote for it.

stalin006
Dec 31, 2002, 08:29 AM
well there is no way eccept to restart it.......and i dont even have the original map :(

Crap, if we can find a replacement, i vote keep playing. Anyone else want to keep playing?

jshelr
Jan 04, 2003, 10:48 AM
Yes, despite it's flaws, the setup was very interesting. Let's get a new victim and start over, IMO.

WildFire
Jan 04, 2003, 11:42 AM
Any takers to start a game? We could use the same map. but make it that there is sea, and you can make settlers. Stalin006 will have to give the map to us though.
