If you enjoy playing against people (grown ups who actually know how to behave themselves!) instead of dumb AI, but don't have the time to play a game all in one sitting, and the timing works for you, join us! Full diplomacy from start to finish, as well as the full range of settings (barbs and huts on, for example) make this the way civ was meant to be played.
Looking for 8 players to fill 6 spots (2 subs). First come, first served--both in posting, and in terms of who can be reliable in showing up on the days we decide.
New players are welcome.
All skill levels are welcome, I like to help out or train up new players; however, be aware that most in the game will know civ 5 very well, and it may be a steep learning curve. (Ally with a vet, you'll be okay.
)
This game will be run over as many sessions as it takes, until a victory condition has been reached, or all have conceded the game to the winner.
Timing
We play in the evenings in Auckland, NZ, starting at 8pm. Sessions usually last 2-3 hours. We have moved to daylight savings here, so currently our timezone is at GMT +13 hours. As most places in the northern hemisphere will be coming off daylight savings soon, the game will shift an hour earlier for you.
Days are arranged based on the players' schedules.
For example, start times in these places are/will be (current/ after the north moves off daylight savings):
West Coast US: Midnight/11pm
East Coast US: 3AM / 2AM
London: 8AM / 7AM
Sydney: 5pm (changed already?)
More Info
See these organizing threads, and also have posts about the story of what happened in the game later in the thread.

For this game, a small map, either continents or pangaea most likely. Settings are up for discussion. Barbs, huts, city states (at least some) all ON.
