WarningU2's PBEM Large Map Epic

[agntsmith]

The game has been quietly ongoing for a while without a thread here to mark and record events. Thought I'd post it.

Players include

WarningU2 = French
Hranthir = Russians
GrannyCarol = Persians
Crude Dirk = Americans

posting the reporting requirements for reference from an email Hranthir propsed.

---

Rules will be like our 1v1s. War is ok whenever you want, no intermediate reports, and just report to winner at end. If resign then we let whoever know who won when the game is over. They will only have to report with respect to the turn they resigned on even if the game goes further.

if game ends at these turns:
0-99 turns 1 report to winner
100-199 2 report to winner
200-299 3 report to winner

No discussing the game or alliance type chat via email until after you have made contact. Other then that free to discuss and have text messages of alliances, locations, military plans, trades of techs/resources ect by email.

No giving over of cities to other players.

So 2nd and 3rd place gets nothing just to be clear. Only winner is important for reports respect anyways.

Winning is by conquests, space, domination type victories. Rather not have united nations victory. Maybe regicide if want like having a king. :-)

Hopefully everything is cool, you all seem pretty easy to agree with my settings in the past. :-)

I am thinking letting warningu2 start it up and having random civs just like our 1v1s I have set up. So let me know if dont like anything over the next few days and we can figure whatever out, other then that I'll get warning to start it up on maybe Tuesday or so to have some time to confer.

Well there it is. Hope it is clearish.

Talk to you later.

We are in turn 76. The French celebrate the revolution and have formed a Republic.

Turn 77 onto Hranthir

Meanwhile Big Foot sighted in the mother of all swamps/jungle to the east of my lands.

I'm preparing 50 workers to clear it. Not !

[Swissy]

Come on Warning, that land far north of the warrior looks to be potentialy great production land with those rivers and hills. Conider that a third of the jungle/marsh should be bonus grassland when cleared you have spots for 2-3 powerhouse cities in democracy. If you have coal and iron even better.

[GrannyCarol]

I wanted to remind you all that I will be leaving town for the week, starting early Tuesday, Nov 23rd and returning Dec 2. I hope to get and to play turns while I am gone, it should be possible, but we will be very busy.

I'm sorry for any inconvenience this might cause you all (not to mention this game is getting to be fun!).

[agntsmith]

Thanks Granny ... life must go on ... even after CIV III Conquests. Have a good Thanksgiving

[agntsmith]

Turn 78 Mount St Helens goes off and narrowly misses two of my cities. Actually the volcanic eruptions is something new to me in PBEM since they don't occur in MP ... and they are a royal pain

[GrannyCarol]

yah, and DON'T plant a city next to one.

[agntsmith]

Still waiting for the Gran

[GrannyCarol]

Hmm... upon careful checking around, I don't seem to have the turn. If it could be re-sent, I'd be right on it! I wondered why I wasn't getting more turns...

[GrannyCarol]

Thanks, I recieved the turn and sent it on... glad to get going again with this game!

[agntsmith]

All the world gazes in awe and wonder of our great wonder built in the 88th turn of the game.

[agntsmith]

Granny Carol ... what is your intention with the immortals crawling about Pointers ? Are you doing a pilgramage or planning something devious ?

[GrannyCarol]

My dear friend and collegue,

If my men are being obstreperous, please let me know. Of course they are on routine exploration missions, but occaisoinally one will go AWOL and I will have to hunt him down and discipline him. My intentions are entirely peaceful, as long as the safety of my people is protected.

I must, of course, do the best for my people that I can. They demand it of me. I would not care to interfere with another running their civilization as they best see fit, unless they have suspicious and warmongering tendencies. This is not the case with you, now is it?

If any of my men have strayed into your borders, I apologize for their lack of discipline and will bring them out promptly.

[agntsmith]

Had to look that word up Carol... former teacher perhaps ?

My people in Pointers grow anxious over the Immortals on the hill and the others gathering nearby. Providing they stay put and outside our borders we can live at peace.

[GrannyCarol]

Gotta blame my father, who WAS a teacher and loves words...

I'm sure I can keep a tight rein on them for the time being.
