any word on pitboss? or good automated pbem support? I like to play slow multiplayer games..

"Has" produced? I thought it was "can" produce. So if you don't build newly teched ranged units, your cities will be highly vulnerable.

Perhaps you're right.... I wonder if it's in the manual.

CITIES FIRING AT ATTACKERS
Once a city has constructed Walls, it will gain a Ranged Combat Strength equal to its full Strength at the start of combat. It may attack any one enemy unit within that range. Note that the city’s Ranged Combat Strength doesn’t decline as the city takes damage; it remains equal to the city’s initial Strength until the city is captured.

I wonder who's correct?

Moderator Action: Moved to Multiplayer forum.

Derp. And moved it again, this time to the right forum.

I'd like a PBEM as well, but they didn't have it listed.

Just; LAN, Internet, and Hot-seat.

 

[Civbra]

so far I like the MP! seems pretty good!

 

[Manifold]

I can confirm that there is a hotseat mode in the multiplayer menu!

Good news, thanks

Still unknown if Multiplayer will be functionable through P2P connections since they used LAN to demonstrate it.

Pete the pillage meister... good porn name.

That stream was great fun. Multiplayer looks good, and the scenarios look fun. Just hope it's as stable over the internet as in LAN.

I might have understood this wrong but in the scenario they played I think it should not be wonders built for the score but wonders owned at the end of the last turn.

Domination win not possible in that scenario.

However, going for Carl's capital was still the right move, as it would have put them ahead in the wonder count and given them the game. They didn't have enough time to do it though.

One thing though bothers me from what i have seen so far is that looks like they failed to fix the Multiplayer AI problem.

Have you played with AI? Is it just as bad as Civ5?

Disappointed to not see an integrated "pbem" option.
We'll probably have to stick with GMR to help with that (if they can support Civ 6)
