Yes, there have been plenty of barbs. I don't know where they get all their gold from but they don't keep it for long

I've got conquests and would be very up for another game.

Just need to hear from the hot one.

I was thinking we could do another archipelago with seafaring civs or maybe a random game where we play 2 civs.

I would like bigger landmasses than we have now but lots of water sounds okay. I'm playing in a game now where each player controls two civs but I don't like it very much.

70% islands would be fine by me, although I would prefer one civ each.

Sorry.. havent been checking this thread.

Conquests PBEM is OK with me. Whatever settings.
I finally installed it, and have had about 10 minutes of play time with it....so I am still a beginner.

Glad to hear there are barbarians.
I dont remember seeing any.

My avatar change is from the Play the World Demo Game.

My team (GoW) is at war with GS.
GS call their knights the chicken warriors.
I thought a roasted chicken might be a nice change for a while.

So what do we want to play? I'm up for a random map where we choose our civs. 1 each is fine with me.

Let's keep the same turn order therefore hot enamel should set it up.

Anybody can set it up.
And we can still maintain the turn order.
Just different starting positions

But can we confirm the settings

Barbarian Activity : Restless
Land Mass : Archipelago

Temperature : Random ???

I would like the same amount of water with larger kand masses. But if everyone wants archipelago then I'm okay.

All looks good, how about random land mass then? Maybe you can roll a dice so we can have 70% water for sure.

Another option, if we can wait a couple of days...
I can get a map maker to generate a map.

Say...
Archipelago world, but he then he adds some more land around the starting positions.
We end up with 2 equal continents (with 2 players on each continent)
Some islands
And some 1 or 2 tile islands that we can use to hop to each continent ?


That will ensure no-one has a 6 month isolated start.
And 3 players are not crammed onto the one landmass no bigger than my backyard.

Sounds like a good plan. Im all for someone tweaking it to improve it, as long as the randomness isn't too lost. I look forward to facing those berserks, mean mofos in the middle ages conquest.

I will see if I can organise someone.

- just to make the land distribution what we want.
- No resource reallocation

OK - Is this the sort of game we are talking about ?

This is an Archipelago world with 70% water.

It took me about 2 minutes in the editor, to give the top central start and the central east start a little more land.

And also to shave off some land from the other two.

I did not touch the resource allocation. Just the land.



If this is what we want, I will get a map maker to set up a game.
If you want more defined continents & less islands, or more water & smaller islands, or an island each, or whatever, just speak up.

Awww... That has made this game very interesting from the beginning. How about 4 of us on a small island. lol

Anyway the map looks good.

The person setting up that they cover up the map in the bottom right hand corner so they don't see the land.

I just took a random 70% water setting and played around with the land a bit so you have some room. I had a look at your current game and this should have more room

(I would love to play a game like the current one you are playing though )

edit: if you want something different, don't feel you have to use this one. I just whipped it up in a couple minutes.

Thanks for that Panzer.

I just started a practice game as the Dutch, and had a really terrible start. I've taken this as an omen so could you change my civ choice to Carthage. Thanks
