searching for 4 player PBEM (with surprises?)

grs · 15-10-2004, 19:51

Hi,

I am hoping to start a 4 player PBEM game with 4 additional AIs.

Settings
--------
emperor level, standard world size, continents, 70% water, restless barbarians, the rest random or tbd by the map maker as are the 4 AI civs.

I would like the map to be made fair, but not even. What I do not want is identical, artifical land masses seperated by huge oceans, all players starting on a river with a cow and a lux, iron and horses in their starting 21. What I do not want either is one player on a land mass with 3 AI and all possible luxes and resources and another one alone on a remote barren isle. So something fair inbetween would be the way. Surprise us if you can (and if the game gets started anyways).

Quality of this map will depend vastly on the mapmaker, but as I read it, we have some excellent ones here.

About the play-schedule. I would like to keep 1 turn/day, but I know that this will not be possible at all times. If possible we should do some early power sessions to get the game going.

Any interests?

personnaly i'd prefer playing a scenario. classic games are really long before things began interesting ...

Well that might be, but I am not that interested in a scenario game. I give it some more days and if still no interest is shown, I think about something different.

I'm always interested in a game like this

Banzai!

Me too!

I love multi-multiplayer games.

Settings are alright. Don't really care. My only preference is that the map is not too artificial (i.e. no identical starting positions etc.).

Ok...signed up:

grs - Romans
Banzai - Iroquois
Matrix - Germans

Just one more to go and I will ask for a map to be made - not artifical, for sure.

I would like to have the SoZ disabled. If you can provide us with a decent rule setting, please do so. I will ask for a map to be made on Friday. Please post your email address.
