GK, do you really want me to up it, because I can. I haven't created the game yet, there's still time...

I would be up for this game as well if there is any space left?

It's entirely up to you. It's your game.
I just think you're up to the challenge. Besides if we start losing you can always make "SE2 Superevie's Revenge".

Well, what do you think GK? I really actually don't have much experience with SGs.
(Sorry, Hmmmmm, we're all filled up.
If I could, I would have much more spots for the people who didn't make it in time.)

You could start a 2nd SGs using the same start and play both. 
You can distinctly see differences in strategies within the same start and I think this will be a good learning experience or at least fun. :jump: As matter of fact, we can have both teams play on the same thread and we can compare notes, much like a crazed party
I'm lurking this one since there is no more space.

Man, I don't think I have enough time for two SGs.

Technically, it's one SG (same start) you just play twice as much.
Just a thought. I may work something along this line on my very own SG.

As for civs, I've never played as the Aztecs. With their extremely early UU and GA, they may be a challenge.

Well it's completely up to you. You could say bump it up to monarch, & leave it as a no varient game. Or leave it at regent & do something like "No wonders", "No research", "No trading", "Can't start a GA with a unit", "No colonies", "No wars before AD", ect..
Whatever you want. It's your game.
[edit]- Surprisingly, I've only played with the Aztecs once. Their Milit/Relig traits are a good combo, but not the strongest & the Jags force you to get a GA before you leave despotism. Probably a good choice(I was pondering Abe as well), the only problem is that Jags have a tendancy to win or lose the game for you very quickly.

Hmmm.... I may just leave it be. As for civs to pick, anything but the Aztecs. 
They are really hard to play for me.

They're hard for everyone, that's why I thought they would be a good choice.

Aztecs are EASY to play... the early the cheap jag warrior allows you to get around the map fast... and you can knock out atleast 2-3 civs at the start of the game. I've played on tiny maps before and got Domination victories before I litature was even researched.

Sooooo... maybe that wouldn't be a challenge 
What would be a challenge? This is after all "The SG of a Lifetime"

Hmm. Ok what traits do we want?

I think we should go for the worst possible civ. How about expansionist on an archipelego map?

seesh... sounds like were trying to lose the game here...
If you guys really want to screw me up... Don't play a commericial or industrial civ. I have big problems playing with a non-industrial civ... and I'm the one who wrote the Effective Commercial Management strat Article... so... I can manage the commercial trait pretty effectivly.

How about this we play the Zulu... expansionist, militaristic on a 'pelago map?
The expansionist trait is wasted, and we won't really get to use our UU unless we share an island with someone.
That would be a challenge.

I like the way you think bugsy.
Besides, I VERY rarely play as the Zulu.
Personally, I vote against any civ that has the industrial or scientific traits. These are IMHO the strongest by a longshot.
Superevie: whats your opinion on the starting civ/traits??
