The thinking behind these particular civs - none are seafaring, and none have a UU from the ancient era. And of course - they are all from Asia. Despite what Ghengis may say.

Sooo..question...are you going to ask Sir Ralph to set it up the same way I set up PBEMs for others? In other words, with the passwords, customizations, etc. already inputted before we start the game?

Rickety, Ghengis has already picked the Chinese as his civ. The ones left to choose from are:

Korea
India
Russia

SR - here are the game parameters. Your choice as to restless or raging barbs. Keep us guessing.

quote: Standard pangaea map - no island starts. Restless or raging barbs is the only question. I will get someone to check the start positions. He will only be checking that no one has an island start, and that no one has a start which is a complete loss. Normal terrain and climate and age. All normal victory conditions in effect. No customization of the civs other than putting in your name for the leader.

And I would propose 70 or 80% water. Again - your choice.

Here are the assigned civs:

Japan - taken by Rhothaerill
China - taken by GhengisFarb
Korea - taken by Longshot
India - taken by ricketyclik
Mongols - taken by Rommel2D
Russians - left for Beta
Arabs - taken by Wittlich

Now - all we need is a play order.

Ghengis, ric, and Longshot - when do you tend to play - and what time zone are you in. The rest I am more than familiar with.

Beta - Rommel2D - Wittlich - Rhothaerill for these 4.

You're central, right GF? He should probably be somewhere around you Beta, just after Longshot. Rick is an antipode, a concept so absurd I'm not sure he's even real...

Witt - good point. Do you want to go with 6? Drop ric now. I would also like to drop the Russians - which are as much European as Asian. So - do you want the Indians Longshot - if so I will take the Koreans. If not - then I will take the Indians.

Sir Ralph - if you do not hear from anyomne in 48 hours - please start it up with just the 6, and me as India. And the following play order:

Longshot
Beta
GhengisFarb
Rommel2D
Wittlich
Rhothaerill

You can pick who starts randomly. Many thanks.

I will set up your game this evening, given the following questions will be answered (sorry if this has been discussed, I dont have time to browse the whole thread):

1) What difficulty level do you want? (no AI, but for corruption and barbarian combat bonus). If I don't get an answer till evening, I set it up Monarch.

2) I can set it up as standard pangea 80% (167 land tiles per civ), but you could also take a small 70% map (160 tiles per civ) as the game suggests for 6 players. It's a pangea anyway, navies won't play a big role, and the landmass will be about the same size in both cases. If I don't get an answer till evening, I will take your choice (standard 80%).

3) (Not obligatory) I need Longshots email to set him up as first player. If I don't get an answer till evening, I will rotate the list and Beta goes first. I have his email.

I will keep the administrator password.

Last thing: If you have questions or complaints, please send me an email to sirralph att gmx dott komm (spelled right, of course). Don't rely on PMs, it often happens, that I don't visit Apolyton for days, while I respond on emails immediately.

Jeez, a guy takes his first 2 day break from Civ for over a year, and gets dropped like a hot potato.

Oh well, at least the impromptu ski trip was well worth it
