Are you suggesting that every tribe that is losing and wishes to concede must stick it out to the very last city/man lest they be dishonorable? I'd like for you to boldly announce your standard of honor to all of Apolyton so we may see who is worthy and who is not. Geez, sometimes people make the most ridiculous statements Some more than others

I will be online around noon EST if these Germans want a tribe game and Tuatha is lacking participants. As for this unit/city sharing, does this mean swapped units can move for each tribe member? And does the city sharing include wonder sharing? Wow, you really know how to make a game long if this is the case. I won't play if we have to wait for every civ to swap units and cities, the turns will be taking far too long...

Do you Germans get many games with these rules?

Btw Willi, it's really bushleague to accuse your potential opponents of being "weak" for rejecting a set of rules almost no one plays by - especially a set of rules that will only make the game looooooonnnnnnnnnnnggggggggggeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrr
.

As for the Archons (is that Markus' tribe), we are waiting on Tact to return from vacation. He said he would be back Sunday (today)but I think it will be tough to get a game going for this afternoon.
Can you'll play weeknights? I know War4ever, Markus and I are available during the week, but maybe we can get a game going for tonight (Sunday).

Civilisation isn't the real world. Therefore I think, it should be allowed to use all its possibilities. And if you play as a tribe you have great possibilies. If you don't use them, it will be just like a normal game and you aren't able to combine the different skills of the tribemembers.

We should cancel this week's session.
Boann will not be available, and I expect my daughter over.
Germs are having problems also this week.

Willi, where do you get that about the railroads?
Something you dreamed when drunk?
Still saying no to swapping cities and Wonder sharing.
Just because it's Tribe doesn't mean all weird crap can happen.

The session last week wasn't a Tribe game, though it contained members from 2 Tribes.
Not unless 4 Germs against 3 De Danann is necessary to give you a chance.
We can go that way, if you feel you need an extra member to make it a competitive game.

Celebrating Oktoberfest a bit soon? Explain how someone with the Great Wall or happiness wonders can transport them to another civilization, you kind of ignored Slowhand's post showing the absurdity of such a rule.

Imagine having bombers/fighters that can hang in the air attacking for several turns in a row. Just because something is possible doesn't mean it's good. Of course if the tribe members alternate in the order of play then attacks can be disrupted by handing the defenders over to the next person in line, but this will just result in a longer game with even explorers switching hands to expand exploration.

I won't play time limits, you want expanded possibilities while penalizing people for having larger civilizations?

The wonder won't be transported. It remain in the city. Only the ownership of the city will chance. That's a normal thing when a city is captured or bribed. And even in real world something like that happens because nations make a contract. And why shouldn't friends of tribe make some good contracts?

We didn't try it with bombers or fighters yet. I suppose, it wouldn't work. The damages of an unit remain, if a unit get a new owner, and a bomber has no fuel too, if another one will use it.

You can do all you want waiting for the oher gamers. In the time limit you have to hurry, that's true. But without timelimit it would be to boring for all. If you want all the time make an email-game...

Markus, try to get a third if possible.
I know Berzerker, Chris, and I will all be online in the evening and were merely going to have Tribe practice game.

Nap,
We don't really care.
Some of us prefer 1x , some prefer 2x .
We adapt.
Some have not done Deity too much, but again, that is fine.
We adapt.

I suggest, and it can surely be discussed, a Deity 2x prod 1x moves game or random normal land.
That will limit us somewhat due to points I outlined above, but...
We adapt.

i doubt Willi that two of you can handle five of us

Like i stated before..... you don't know who you are playing yet so don't be ignorant.

I am not into city bribe games nor any of this wonder sharing nonsense.

the game is over by the time someone gets mikes/leos

while civs do benefit from having strong neighbors, look at Canada and the USA, they certainly dont' lend us Hoover Damm every year Therefore that shoots your wonder sharing theory down the tubes.

i won't play with a timer either, too many dirty tricks are used this way...... like kings chat popups.....

as for you guyz being sooooooo good.... anytime after tues this week i can rock n roll will the best of you

deity x2x1 or x1x1 4 player game (lets make it quick and like you said you only need two of you) raging hordes, no city bribe, no wonder sharing, no instant caravans, no ai, any thing else thats not a cheat is allowed.

Oh and my partner is berzerker, you guyz are going down

Okay, but I dont make the decisions for our tribe as to who will play or under what settings. I'd play wonder/city sharing, but not unit sharing - just too long. Btw, can you cite any historical examples of this 'normal' occurence?

The fuel - movement points - restores for the new owner.

I'm not talking about city management, I'm talking about moving units. I've played games with time limits and always find they make it hard to launch and maintain attacks not to mention moving caravans. And I dont need "all the time" to move, just the time it takes to move my units. You don't like that? We wont be playing then... I can barely stomach time limits in post 1500 bc friendly games.

In 1890 England and Germany made the Helgoland-Sansibar-Contract and changed the isles. I'm not a historican, but i think, there are a lot of other examples. Most of this examples deals after wars (Helgoland-Sansibar between "friends": think about the decision about the towns in south Danmark after World War I.

I had played with the famous Hendrik the Great and the enlighted Overlord and gone at the best of us.

Lol Civ is as much a game of the mind as it is of moving around units.

This game is going to drag on a bit, as no one has the tech to launch a decisive blow. Actually we do but thats just temporary...

This will go well past tatics i think.
