Eurozone 2: Desanimado en el gob

[ParadigmShifter]

So the previous Eurozone PBEM has reached 1000AD already, so I'm going to start the sequel.

You must be in the eurozone timezone to play, we have a really fast turnaround (usually a turn a day now there are 5 players left!).

I'm going to go hemispheres or maybe ice age or global highlands if we want a big change.

Raging barbs seemed quite funny in the last game too

Other than that: huts and events on, no advanced start, no AI. No tech trading or brokering. No vassals.

Looking for 6-8 players total. Large map with 8 players, otherwise normal size map. Normal speed.

Sign up here!

I'm in.


Statutory and forlorn vote for huge map...

 

[pacoenes]

In.
I'm looking for revange with Espirito. I'd like to play Romans with iron near my capitol and Espirito not far away. I was kidding . Let's play random.

 

[Espírito]

I'm afraid I'll have to decline. 3 PBEM's at once is quite enough for me. If you want revenge I'll be happy to accomodate you after Eurozone 1 ends though

 

[pacoenes]

Ok, see You there

 

[rd13]

i'm in. could we please please have advanced start? dont want to move that warrior for 40+ turns.. or am i missing some mayor downside with the advanced start?

rough terrain sounds interesting, maybe there will be more fighting for those precious few good spots for cities.

 

[ParadigmShifter]

Well it's normal speed so you aren't stuck with your warrior only for too long...

 

[Mîtiu Ioan]

I'm in too - if there is any space left.

 

[ParadigmShifter]

Yep, only 4 players + me so far. I'll give it until Monday at least before getting started.

 

[Hawklord]

OK Para count me in.

[ParadigmShifter]

So, I played the ice age map a few times in single player (one space race win with Mansa I think, maybe played again with Huayna Capac and Quechua rushed a lot of civs).

I remember even normal barbs being a problem (although it was Monarch IIRC), because there isn't much food on this map type (except for the capitals), so cities tend to have big gaps between them.

EDIT: Here's a link to the Mansa game... only my 2nd ever Monarch win With warlords expansion.

EDIT1A: Lol, that was the game where Hatty nuked Tokugawa, first time I'd ever seen an AI use nukes! Which was a lot rarer in warlords as well. Hatty likes her nukes Of course, I had to nuke Toku the turn after to see what the graphics were like as well

EDIT2: Nope, my other game was with Hannibal, diplo, emperor, quick speed
