Arckons Next 24Civ Pitboss game; details and discussion here

[Johnhs]

You'll find it awesomely convenient

 

[Arckon]

Good news, though. And with a whole day to spare as well.

Besides the available Aztecs (who has a really nice starting set-up, btw), I see on Civstats there are 4 unclaimed Civs? Have they just not registered with Civstats or aren't they interested in the game anymore?

OK, Carthage, and the Aztecs are as yet unassigned. I am seriously considering swapping the Vikings for Carthage.

Fosse is playing England and Spartaca is playing India. They seem enthusiastic and post on the thread on occasion, so I can only guess that they have not seen any point to registering yet.

Now, I am not going to restart the Civstats account, though it will look kind of hosed for the first few turns, since almost everyone has registered and all.

 

[Arckon]

I hope this doesnt make anyone upset, but I think I will jump over to Carthage.

Any objections?

 

[g_storrow]

I will try a reinstall on a new machine.

 

[Arckon]

OK, final version of the game file is up at:

I have given everyone starting mines with copper since everyone starts with spearmen, so it seems more realistic, lol.

Also, I gave everyone improvements that woulds seem to be appropriate for their growing populations and having had two workers for some time.

Hope everyone is OK with that.

Game should go live tomorrow morning at around 8am.

It would be nice for Rome to start of with IW and a mine for Iron.

 

[Arckon]

It would be nice for Rome to start of with IW and a mine for Iron.

lol, yeah, I bet it would.

It just makes sense that a civ with spearmen would have a working copper mine, no?

 

[classical_hero]

Of course. I was never being serious.

 

[Arckon]

Of course. I was never being serious.

I know.

I was trying to play along with it, lol.

have fun

I'm in a bit of a predicament.

I'll be travelling on business from Monday to Friday this coming week, so I may contact one of you to do some worker actions for me, depending on how the timing plays out with the turns.

But I'm going to try and install on my laptop (borderline specs) and play from the hotel... if their firewall lets it through.

 

[classical_hero]

We promise not to attack you while you are gone.

I know that Fosse is on a trip but will be back on the 4th of March

 

[Arckon]

The game is up if anyone wants to log in and start their turn.

 

[Klammi]

I think the turn timer is set to 2 hours. Please set it up once again

 

[Arckon]

Thanks!

Thats why I have to try things hours ahead of time!

lol


The timer is corrected now, so everyone can go in and do their turns.

 

[g_storrow]

I have logged in fine. I think it was I was putting mod in mygames../mods/ directory not /firaxis/civilzation4/warlords/mods. DOH
My name is user but I will change it next time.

 

[g_storrow]

Yep, starting brand new on Saturday morning.

The password is your civ's name.

I have tried Hatshepsut Eygpt Eygptian none of them work.

 

[Klammi]

I have tried Hatshepsut Eygpt Eygptian none of them work.

Tried Egypt yet?

 

[Johnhs]

First turn went fine.

Funny thing though, my 2nd city doesn't see the copper resource, even though I can trace a roadway between the 2 cities. Any idea why this might be??
