Hamachi direct ip is so much better than lan as it allows the users to pw protect their civs... Also options such as barbs, tech trading, vassal states, huts might matter somewhat(i perfer them all off), also do players chose their civs or go with what random?

 

[Amask]

what does random map mean? I can't find that option
if you have a script to do that, will that include both land and sea maps?
a game on an islands map is very different than on a pangaea, not sure it's something I would enjoy
if we're going with a standard land map, pangaea or inland sea, or smth where everyone is on the same landmass, I would like to play

 

[oyzar]

Random map script was a new script with 3.17, includes most map scripts.

 

[Amask]

ah, at the very bottom, not in its alphabetic order

my understanding is that it includes
hemispheres
terra
fractal
big and small
medium and small
archipelago
and pangaea

well, islands is not in there, so I'd like to play

 

[burlicconi]

I'm interested too, but also prefer tech trading and vassal states off, while barbs are OK for me....

 

[Unionfield]

I guess that the particular options aren't that much of a concern to me, although I prefer vassal states and barbarians off.

Unless it is a popular sentiment, I'd like to stick with continents. I have found in other PitBoss games that, too often, three or four of the eight players get stuck off on their own islands until turn 150 or so, and it's no fun if you are one of those nations.

It is more than fine if you are playing a game with no tech trading...

 

[zenspiderz]

I'll play HRE charlemagne

 

[Indiansmoke]

I will play if there is a spot...is it random civs?

 

[oyzar]

nevermind.

 

[Indiansmoke]

I don't see the point of vassal states for humans...

and tech trading pretty much decides the game....It would be better to take these 2 options off...

 

[mikeyia]

I'm interested in playing.

 

[Unionfield]

If you want to play, please state it clearly and make sure you include leader name and nation name.

 

[mikeyia]

I'll play as random unless I need to pick.

 

[Indiansmoke]

can you post the complete settings?

Huts on off?
random events?
barbs on?
tech trading?
perm alliances?
