Rise of Rome PBEM

[Tboy]

I am starting up a Rise of Rome PBEM. You need C3C and the v1.22 patch to play. Please post with your preferred civ and time-zone to play.
Players, Civs and Turn Order.
Rome: Tboy (GMT)
Egypt:AI
Macedonia: Drendor (GMT+1)
GothsCalis (GMT+1)
Scythians: Daddy-O (GMT-6)
Persia: qummik (GMT+2) - defeated
Gaul:AI
Carthage: greekguy (GMT-5)

Final Draft of Rules:
Difficulty: Regent.
Customisable Game Rules: Preserve Random seed.
Other Rules:
1.No negotiating with the AI on turn 1 (due to AI being stupid on turn 1 due to a bug), but human-human diplomacy is allowed.
2.No military alliances with ANYONE until turn 11 (for game balance).
3.No razing of any cities of size 7 or over (again, for game balance).

 

[Drendor]

I´d like to try Macedonia.

// Drendor

 

[greekguy]

[TurdBurgler]

I'd be interested in Persia. I'm GMT +9

 

[Drendor]

I´m still intrested to play Macedonia....

 

[greekguy]

this thread has seemed to have slipped down the pages. Tboy, do you want to go with the 4 of us or wait for more people to hopefully join?

 

[azzaman333]

I'll play as the Goths. GMT +11.

 

[greekguy]

Want to go with the group we've got now, Tboy?

 

[Tboy]

We'll wait until sunday (13th) for more players, then start.

 

[Daddy-O]

I am new here. Can I join?

Scythians
theidiots * yahoo * com
GMT -6

 

[Tboy]

Anybody for Egypt or Gaul?

 

[LouLong]

I don't want to sound patronizing by giving unasked advice but I must say the 4 minor powers are frustrating to play (they cannot really compete, I know, I played Egypt once in a PBEM) and they make the game much slower.
So "usually" we stick to the 4 main powers for human players in PBEM and let the others be played by the AI.

 

[Tboy]

Oh well, the people playing the minor factions are free to leave if they wish. Do you, azzaman333 and Daddy-O?

 

[Daddy-O]

TBoy,
It's your game. I was hoping to get involved I some Civ3 PBEMs. I don't mind giving it a try. I am in a PBEM right now with six players and it is slow. I was hoping that having the head start that a conqusts gives you would speed things up. If I don't play this game I'll try to start another. Just let me know.

 

[Tboy]

OK. You both stay as long as you want to. If you don't want to play anymore at any point, just let me know.

 

[Daddy-O]

Sounds good.

 

[Tboy]

Ok, those who haven't already sent it, please send me your e-mail address.

 

[Drendor]

I suggest the following rulez:

1) No diplomacy whatsoever with AI the first turn,cause trade with AI is bugged the first turn of a scenario

2) No alliances until turn 11

3) No razing of cities or razing limited to ONE city per nation


/ D

 

[Tboy]

1.Are your sure diplomacy is bugged? I've never noticed it. Could you give me an example?
2.Any particular reasons why?
3.Good rule. Make it no cities razed.

 

[Daddy-O]

1) Which bugs? But what ever - I'm OK with it if that is the rule.
2) Any reasons? But again if that is the rule - fair enough.
3) On Razing. My own cities? AI Cities? Your Cities? Please clarify.
