Hey! This is your first SG. I'm not joining, I have too many things going on, but good luck. We just started something like this though on Archipelago Map on Emperor. Have fun, I'll be following though

.

Bamspeedy · Jul 16, 2003

Wow, 2 cows at the start! Irrigate one and mine the other for our settler/4 turns settler factory (with granary, of course).
We might want to build at least 1 more scout before the granary.

I am always able to complete a granary before barbs show up, but we may want to build at least 1 warrior for basic defense, just in case, and for MP duty.

10% research on alphabet? All the other choices, the AI will already have, or research quickly. The wheel is a possibility if Japan isn't in the game, but the AI researches that rather quickly (after BW, IW).

Additional rules (basic SG rules):
No long 'go-to' orders (telling a unit to move 10+ tiles for example).
No units on 'auto-explore'.

How many turns are we going to play at a time/player?

NewDestroyer · Jul 16, 2003

10 turns a player is good, just make sure when u sign up guys u can atleast play on regent because any below is probally out of ur league.

amirsan · Jul 16, 2003

Yes, very nice start indeed.

Earp · Jul 16, 2003

I would like to join.

Speaker · Jul 16, 2003

I wish I could join; the opportunity to play with Bamspeedy is almost too much to pass up, but I want to play a PBEM and have plans for another possible SG.

One small hint though...I think it's spelled "Deity."

Good luck to you guys!

Ambiorix · Jul 17, 2003

I'd like to join, but I won't be able to play until the 29th (leaving on holiday tomorrow, no internet access...).
If you think that's too late, just say so - no problem.

Puzzlinon · Jul 17, 2003

That is an awfully nice starting position.

betazed · Jul 17, 2003

I would very much like to join. This game provides a very good oppurtunity to learn more civ3 skills (not to mention Bamspeedy here who will surely provide a lot of insights).

Shevek · Jul 17, 2003

I would love to sign up.
Have no Deity experience (yet) but am very eager to learn.
I do play comfortably on Monarch and have a few wins on Emperor as well.
So if this is OK with you guys I really like to join.

well today is the 17th. And its 3 days per person maximum. If u go last u can probally get in on this. reply agian if u wanna join.

"I am always able to complete a granary before barbs show up"

Heh, that's quite a nice civ trait Bamspeedy. In my first PBEM game I had barbs show up on turn 15 :eek:

, from an unexplored area (by me that is). Of course I didn't have two cows and so was still three turns from pottery.

betazed · Jul 17, 2003

Just one thought.

One of the rules in the first post says that we are not allowed to raze cities (except autoraze). Going that way we may get a domination by the time we have tanks, so we may not get to the AW in modern age at all. It has a very high probability of happening on a pangea map. Since this is continents the probability is less, but it just might happen.

Has happened to me, so I just wanted to point it out.

OK, count me in !

I've been doing ok in the Gotm games, and been able to win on random-map emperor games. Don't know how I'll do on Deity level, but the start-position sure looks promising.
Looking forward to play this one !

Turn order is fine with me. Let's get this started. [party]

NewDestroyer · Jul 17, 2003

if the link above for the save file try this 1

Bamspeedy · Jul 17, 2003

Ack! Sure, put me in a pickle at the start

.

The tile we start on is a bonus grassland. Should I move or not? If I move, we lose one of the cows until we get culture expansion. If I stay where we are, we lose the bonus shield until we hit size 7.

Earp · Jul 17, 2003

I would found the city where we are. I think 2 mined BGs and 1 mined cow will provide us with enough shields for our settler factory. Are you going to move the worker N and the scout S,W?
