The map size is set. (and I can't recall what it is. ) This is for age, temp, climate, etc.

Re: size
Why do I think the map size was decided on as small?

Re: Age
Medium to old.

Map size was determined to be small largely because that was a condition of a lot of us playing. It is to make the game go by faster etc, and to encourage ... early competition. No more of this "wait until TANKS to have war" or anything.

It would appear that 1889 is emigrating from the team. Which is a good thing as he is going to head up Team # 6 which needed leadership.

We wish you all the best 1889, and look forward to meeting you in the game.

Okay so that isn't real different from one to the next. Oh well.

For those of you who aren't Beta, he asked for a logo to be made similar to the V you see in both of our names... but in Bab Blue or somesuch, and with a B (no idea why he wants that ... )

Thnaks snoop. I can't see a whole lot of difference bteween 1, 2 or 3, but I suugest 2. The B is for Babylon. Hadn't realized the connection until you mentioned it. The other variation I was thinking of was the palm tree, but if folks are Ok with the B on the dark blue background, then lets go for it.

You probably have to turn up the contrast on your monitor, you heathens who operate with overly bland monitors ...

There is only the slightest of differences. Anywho you have all 3 so whatever you pick is fine.

And I was just being silly with the B ... I wasn't thinking of B for Beta either until YOU mentioned it.

Reasons for the goddess Inanna:

Look here for a brief description.
http://www.pantheon.org/articles/i/inanna.html
and
http://www.gatewaystobabylon.com/my...inanna/ts94.htm

Hey she's a Babylonian goddess. The goddess of Love and War seems to fit our direction as a team if I remember correctly. We plan to pursue the higher things: Love, Science, Culture. But, cross us and you'll get War. Inanna seems to fit.

Reasons for the godking Gilgamesh:

http://www.gatewaystobabylon.com/my...e1.htm#prologue

Come on Gilgamesh is a great name besides...

Who is there to compare with him in kingship?
Who like Gilgamesh can say:
'I am king indeed?'
His name was called Gilgamesh
From the very day of his birth,
He was two-thirds god, one third man,
The Great Goddess Aruru designed him, planned his body, prepared his form
A perfect body the gods gave
For the creation of Gilgamesh
Shamash the Sun gave beauty
Adad the Storm gave courage
And so he surpassed all others.
He was two-thirds god, one third man,
The form of his body no one can match
Eleven cubits high he is, nine spans his chest
As he turns to see the lands all around him.

Hmmm - I was going to say stick with Hammurabai, but you have two interesting suggestions.

I think Gilgamesh is in aleardy as the leader of the Sumerians is he not? In the stock game I mean, not here in this demo game.

I like the Inanna reference. We could go with Empress Inanna, as opposed to Goddess.

And switch to (Helen of Troy as our avatar) ((edit)) as in x that. I mean Joan of Arc from France as our leaderhead.

And I like this reference you posted:

'In battle, I am your leader In combat, I am your armour-bearer In the assembly, I am your advocate on the campaign, I am your inspiration..'

Don't forget the 'noun' is plural ...

ie

*leader* *name* of the *noun* ...

*Empress* *Inanna* of the *Babylonians* ...

I think we can leave civ name, noun and adjective to the stock setttings for Babylon - but snoop is right.

Any other Babylonians out there who want to weigh in on the issue of who leads us. So far it is two votes for Inanna - Goddess or Empress.

Ok - good enough for me.

Goddess Inanna it is. And Joan of Arc as the leaderhead.
