Real time civ Suffering from ads?

Who is interested in playing a real time civ game?

No stealing of tech
no trading of tech

Count me in. Tryed this simultaneous thing and it works great. It's like 3 * faster than regular civ.

When you save and reload the game it keeps the "real time" option

When a unit moves it creates a ZOC for all the spaces it moved and another unit can't move into it. (or something along those lines) You had better be fast when attacking, i think the attack stats are slightly modified as well.

There are 2 parts to the turn, the get new tech, and build all your city improvements parts, Then when everyone is done that it allows everyone to move units. when you get a hut from a unit you can't move it till the next turn. Thats all i can remember off the top of my head. It works great

It was being tried in the MSN zone. Opinion there seemed to have been more negative about the option. Certainly there is some reaosn why they didn't include this option. Either way, i can't wait to try it out, how exactly do i get the option to show up?

Tired of ads?

You should try to deliberately set up some movement and city-building conflicts to see what happens. What if you both tried to build cities 1 square apart? Or violated ZOC? Or both landed on the same hut?

And, as a more practical matter, I depend on not-my-turn time for bathroom breaks. Must one keep a chamber-pot by the computer?

Units out of huts can't be moved until the next turn. The computer doesn't recognize that they're there or something. Also an annoying pop-up screen keeps coming up saying waiting for other players to finish their turns. And according to deviousgnome who I was playing he said that the lag was worse. Maybe this is cool in a very large multiplayer game but 1 on 1 I don't see the advantages.

That makes sense. You *shouldn't* be able to move a unit that you didn't have at the start of the turn if this new format. But what I meant was, how does the computer decide which civ gets the hut contents if 2 civs move a unit to the hut on the same turn? Do they fight a battle and the winner gets the hut?
