"Earth_Game_2006_BC-0965_to_Elbridge.Civ4SavedGame" was sent on 6/15/06; that is the last I've seen.

Received word from Elbridge that he forwarded the save at 9:32am PDT June 15.

 

[Randle]

Any updates? Do we need to start getting a sub?

 

[GrendelS]

I thought you recieved the mail, too - Chinetter is on the road until today.

Looked through my spam folder and didn't see it; who knows.

 

[Chinetter]

I'm back, and forwarded a savefile overnight Tuesday/Wednesday (Chicago time).

I'm working my way to Alaska, perhaps I can wave to the Russians across the Bering Strait.

We have Russians in the game?
Too bad multiplayer doesn't work with the full number of players/AI.

Perhaps the Japanese or Chinese will be there waiting for me =]

 

[GrendelS]

alright, 48 hours without sighting, who's got the save?

As far as I know I don't, but let me know if you didn't get it from me, Elbridge.

I'd like to install the Warlords expansion pack, does anyone know if it will screw up this game? (Asoka)

 

[GrendelS]

I don't think so, since it's not an upgrade - it probably will work as it did with Civ3, loading a different part of the software with vanilla still being an option.

It might pose a problem to open the save in the expansion pack and then forward it to the next guy who might not have it. If everyone has the expansion, we might try to switch.

335BC was a great year for the German empire. Can't wait for the main game.

It won't. You can't load our save with the expansion pack.

Btw, the German Empire's ruler turned 29 today. He expects 50 gold, a galley, two warriors and a worthy amount of cringingness by his neighbors.

I've loaded your request into my Aircraft Carrier. It should be arriving shortly.

You're my friendly neighborhood civ already - too bad there's no vassal option in vanilla. Did some hurricane sink your carrier? I played my save and cought no glimpse of an enemy ship at the western ...front.

You mean if I install Warlords I won't be able to load this save game?
So my choice is either get Warlords _or_ continue playing this game?

The save game files are not upgradeable, take a look here

No, you can do both, get the game and continue to play this game, we can't switch to the Warlords rule set anyway.
