Realtime C3C game anyone? - Page 3

Ah, too bad akots. If you ever take an afternoon off, please tell us so we can start on Friday evening ! Otherwise I'm confident I can sleep on Saturday morning without any problem, waiting for you lazy guy in GMT-6 to wake up !

No AI is a real requirement for me, I don't want artificial dumbness in this game.

Pangea is fine with me, but like I said, if you want some seas here and there, I'm fine too. I just don't want contacts to be delayed until the late Middle Ages and so on... We could ask the map maker to connect our starting positions by land or coastal tiles...

Matrix, quote what you believe is a trick from what I said here, please !

Playing on Pangea isn't a trick in my book, nor is playing on a small map.

It's just that I expect to see some action before the end of the weekend, if you see what I mean... and I'm a slow player.

But I expect us to follow some usual rules, I can write them this week, and you can come up with yours, and we decide then.

I'm a fast player, so I'll be able to eat and go to the bathroom.

The player who hits "enter" last usually has some advantage... I know, I have the experience from Breda with me.

I might be wiping out your cities as you eat and [do whatever you do in the bathroom] !!

Don't play too fast.

Does Matrix confirm ?

Alright, alright, small pangea it is. Maybe on the second game we'll have a med island one.

What about barbarians? And which Civs do you guys want?

akots · 14-02-2005, 20:19

Nothing balance-breaking please like Iro. Either all civs with AA unique units (Rome, Persia, Babylon, Celts, Zulu, Greece etc) or early MA UU (China, Japan, Arabs, Mongols etc). Barbarians ... may be some but not too much.

Socrates · 14-02-2005, 21:04

Like I said, I wanna play the Celts. Barbs ? : I could do without them for a change, ie. no camp, no hut. No AI. Level is up to you guys, I can live with Emperor, Demigod or Deity (it will only affect corruption and the tech pace). Disable SGLs. And of course no accelerated production (we're not chicken grown up for food). Disable Diplo victory if you want.

I think I covered everything here. This was my wish. What is yours ?

akots · 14-02-2005, 21:42

To have more units, we can play on Emperor. This would lower corruption. Don't think Accelerated Production is a good option. Starting with a few extra settlers/workers might speed the things up.

Markstar · 14-02-2005, 23:18

Mmh, I'm against additional settlers since we are already playing online. That should be quick enough.

Mmh, no Iros??? What am I going to play then?

akots · 14-02-2005, 23:38

I'd like (in order of preference) Egypt, Persia or Rome.

Markstar, time to change from your PTW habits !!

You said it yourself : you prefer the Iroquois as they are in PTW (I tend to think the opposite). I personally don't mind if someone wants to pick them BTW.
