I'd be down with that. I have both Linux and Windows CTP.

I suggest a game with 3 - 6 players, and maybe some type of accelerated start. Im not sure how many players you'll find here if you need more players, you can probably find them on Loki's CTP newsgroup.

I think if we have more then 3 players we should have accelerated start. If we only get three players it willn't matter so much 4 might be doable depends on game speed.

Well that depends on what we want.

Dutcheese: Is applicable if we want to start in the late renisance(sp).
You get 10 cities, 2 musketeers per city, alot of gold and PW.

Semi: Is applicable if we want to start in the late ancient. You get 5 cities, 1 Phalanx per city and alot of gold and PW.

Stavros's: I believe he made a mod which only creates 3? settlers at the start of the game, but Im not sure.

APQS: A quick start for the apolyton pack, with both a 5 city and a ten city start.

I think I would prefer to use Stavros's and if we want it's not to hard modify to add PW or gold or Phalanxes or whatever. I prefer not to accelerate it to much as it appears that we won't have that many players.

further settings to discuss about:
wet 1
warm 4
ocean 3 -> enough space for need of water units
sland 6
uniform 4
goods 3

whats about to start the game if You already have the "three settlers scenario"?

Hi dattler,
greetings to you. I´m glad to find annother player who´d like to play an PBEM game. My favourite wouldn´t an accelerated start, because i like the beginning. Especially, if there are players who begin to compete in the early centuries. But everything you want, except of a game, where we don´t have to invention the first things.

Thank you for posting in the newsgroups, you know why. Please inform me about the results.

Regards,
Chickenbrain

hi, playing by e mail with the regular game start is not a nice thing. it is no fun to move one settler around and waiting for the first unit when you built your city. I think these games are dieing soon.
i´m in combat at turn 28. we started with one settler.now i have three cities. and four warriors. and we are playing four month now. yes, i got a bad tarrain , but this could be more interesting.
three of five settlers with 10.000 gold are a good start, i think. if you like we can start just with agriculture, mining and irrigation.
but lets wait what the others say, if anyone will be interested.

Hmm, that may be a problem. But, what size of map did you choose. I´d prefer to play normal size. The smaller the map the faster you´ll meet enemies. Or allies of course. And i like the sort of game, where you have to fight your enemies from 2000BC to 2000AC. Maybe not the whole time, but i think you know what i mean. Nothing is more boring, than an iland for myself.

One player i thought i ´ve foud just told me his Linux-Box is broken down. Impressing.

hi Chickenbrain,
i´m with you concerning the map size, a small map is the best. we will meet soon and have to conquer for settling area.
just for information: my linux box is working since month, just one day delay for updating my x-server. just some delays because of vacations and i-providers.

would you also be interested for subbing someone in a ongoing game?
