Ancient Age To start I ploped my settler down at the starting point and decided to water the plains, when what did I notice but a cheese factory. As soon as I finished my road/sprinkler system I had my worker start watering the cow. My production build went, warrior, warrior, row boat and...

It would seem as though we have a bottleneck. I am going to send out an email to the group, if you are still playing, but do not get the email, reply here.

Sorry, my mistake. :wallbash:

I pm Borealis asking him to send out his email. Hotrod you need to send your email to Borealis. Hotrod my email is gkiselis@peoplepc.com.

Quillan you are up. The maps are all small, with two random AI opponents, roaming barbs, monarch level. Everything else is random.

Who has the game????
