New PB Game, GMT-8 to GMT-5 Players Only

[Mysterio10000]

Starting the sessions tomorrow night would be best. You guys agree on a 2-hour time slot, and I'll be there. It would be great if we could have these sessions every other night during the week. We'd have to discuss the weekends.

Well so far for tomorrow night it looks like we got:

Mysterio, Brutalis, Ehtwal, and myself already putting up that we'll be available from 7-11pm EST.

Corossol and Shirt...you guys gonna be around?

 

[HitAnyKey]

Question of the day.....

Do I destroy Brutalis now....or let him survive and let him build up to battle later....​

What makes you think you can destroy him now?

 

[HitAnyKey]

Ok, I think I'll let him live....for now.

Thanks H.A.K.

Seems you guys started pretty close to eachother if you met at 3900 BC -_-.

Well, the Standard map size defaults to 7 players, so I limited our game to 6. If the map type had been Continents, we would have more space between us. But since it's Terra, we're closer together. The race is on to claim the New World! Don't overlook water techs on a Terra map.

And my comment was more based on the fact that I saw his settler with my warrior before he built his city. If he hadn't built his city right then, I might have stepped on him.

 

[BrutalusMaximus]

Well I stayed up to see if I could get in another turn before bed but no go. Gonna log on at 6 AM EST before I go to work to see if it is a new turn

Wow, you two DID start close to one another. If it had been a Scout rather than a Warrior that spotted his Settler, I wouldn't have been surprised, but a Warrior has only one MP.

P.S.: Did my info help you with your in-game name, HAK?

 

[HitAnyKey]

Yeah, we're just missing Corossol for another turn tonight. So next would have to be in the morning. As long as Cor gets his done before 7:30am, I could get off a turn before I head to work. Since the turn counter will go until 8:30am and that's when I'll be at work.

 

[HitAnyKey]

Did my info help you with your in-game name, HAK?

Yes, I was able to fix my .ini file so that I don't have to type my name every time I connect. Thanx!

 

[BrutalusMaximus]

Did my turn before work at 6 AM ending the turn and then did my next one to start the next turn. I get back from work at 2-3 est. and will check again then to see if we can do another! Looking forward to a nice session tonight.

 

[Mysterio10000]

Yup. When you're the last to end your turn on a turn, you're able to take your turn for the next turn right away.

This was fun tonight. I'll be available again tomorrow night starting around 8ish if people will be around.

Though I think next time I do one of these games (this is my first with Civ4 that got this far, so far) I may just hold off killing the first scout I run across.

I might not be able to make it tomorrow night. It depends on when I have dinner with my girlfriend.

Yeah, attacking someone's Scout from the get-go is not a great idea. Assuming he hasn't found a goody hut that gave him a unit, it's his only unit. Killing it robs him of (perhaps) additional goody huts and exploration for expansion. If shirt didn't get anything in return from you for peace, I'd say you got off easy. I would have demanded restitution.

Besides, attacking a Scout with a Warrior is like bringing a bazooka to a knife fight.

 

[Ehtwal]

I wonder what type of relations those two will have for the rest of the game.

 

[Mysterio10000]

Man, the Terra map we're on has horrible placement of strategic resources. I see Eht has Copper and Ivory (not strategic, but required for War Elephants) within his borders, and Horses adjacent to his border. I don't have any of those three resources within my borders or even close to my borders.

Let's see how many people we can get to meet within the game at 8 EST tonight.

 

[HitAnyKey]

Mys, I think it also doesn't help that you, myself, & shirt were plopped down in rather ugly spots.
