	speaking of The Hive Suffering from ads?

How about a 4 player game: the map to be used is the tournament Map (4 identical starting locations), but all human players will be "the Hive". The two computer factions should be something else...dont really know yet, maybe morgan and zhakarov?

?!

I believe "MB" is the "kewldewd" acronym for "maybe". I see it used a lot on GameRanger.

I am interested in an all hive game. I've never tried the Hive before.

Ash must hang around GR to much(like me).

OK, if everybody thinks we can get a turn a day (about 5 turns a week) I can setup the game.
Ash, Rue, Qual and me?
Worms: how many?
NO blind research
Difficulty: second highest?!
NO spoils of war
all victory possibilities
random map, high land content, high humidity, lots of mountains?
AI: Morgan, Deirdre and Zhakarov?

what would be the best order to play in (time zones matter a bit)

Oh, and we should do some little naming convention for cities:
all cities of Hive players will be blue...so everybody should use two letters before each city name:
"AX Hive" or "AX Command"

this way it is easier to see which city belongs to who...

	Suffering from ads?

Here's the optimal order as far as I know:

Dan +1 GMT
Qual -5 GMT (is he playing??)
Rue -6 GMT
Ash -7 GMT

As far as naming my cities I'll add Ash to their names.

	Tired of ads?

I'll add rue to all my city names.

In answer to your other questions, here is my input.
Second highest difficulty level is good.
Lots of mountains.
Lots of worms.
NO Blind researh.
All victories possible.
Morgan and Zhakarov are okay with me.

MB even 6 turns a week

Now the only question to answer is: is Qualicide in or out? I sent him an email, but he hasnt answered...so in case he is out, dowe wait for a 4th player or do we just start?

Q. is out. Doesnt want to play as Hive. Instead of waiting any longer I just start the game...the combination Rue, Ash and me was good enough for the last couple of games

If I could play some faction (like ohhh say the drones...) other then the hive it might be good... and are we having AI in the game?

The point of the game is that everyone play as the Hive.
