If your playing a PBEM I would like to play if you'll still have me.. I just didn't want to commit to a pitboss game.

I would like to be "random". I really don't care who I am.

Ok, I've managed to create a map after much hassle. I'm telling you, these scripts are really weird and random map is barely playable in Civ4. It is somewhat even worse than in Civ3 with some aspects. Also, there is no Dr.A's utility and it is really impossible to redraw the whole map. Anyhow, I did what I could and tried to balance the stuff. I also playtested to make sure there are chances to survive for both human player. Just keep in mind, you've got to be careful and play it safely imho. I've mostly deleted a lot of forests especially near the start and tried to balance locations of both human players and AIs and also resources at the best of my abilities.

Anyhow, save had been mailed to Romeo and passwords to both players.

Map in Pangea, tropical climate, medium water level, 3 AI, Monarch as requested. Don't judge me too much, it is my first Civ4 map. If something goes wrong, please let me know. I can then correct the errors and stuff.

Good luck and please remember to keep the lurkers spoiled!

what email did you use for me?

Actually, Tubby, I don't think you got added to this one.

If you want, I can start a PBEM vs you as well.

Just pick a race for you and one for me, and we can ask Akots to make a map, and we are off.

Well just after signing up for this one, my wife told me that she might go ballistic if she catches me playing civ after the baby is born in April/May. She said that she'll need about 6 weeks to get her normal brain back.

She doesn't like dealing with babies that can't respond back so that early time isn't a good time for her. After the baby can respond back she gets better. At least that's the way it was with Ana.

Romeo, if you catch me on a weekend maybe we could get a pitboss game started or sumpin. Usually 2 or 3 power sessions is all it takes for a pitboss game. So I might be able to squeeze it in before the baby's born
