New PBEM the Aussies and the Texan
Well mates, here is the thread. I am just assuming that Rasputin will want to join in the three player pbem PTW game.
The proposed settings are going to be.
Scenario....snOOpys terrain X.......(just a graphical change)
World size Huge or Large up for debate
Civs 3 Random Human and 5 computers
Avg age, Avg temperature, Continents
Roaming or Restless Barbarians
Monarch difficulty
Also there was mention in another thread about adding in additional starting units. If you guys want then we can do this and redistribute the .bix file for everyone to install and then play with the additional units of maybe a couple of settlers and a few warriors to get a quicker starting position. Its all up for debate from here on out.
The starting .bix file is a modified snOOpysX terrain with 40 starting gold, 2 Settlers, 2 Workers, and a Scout for each of the 3 Human players. I think expansionists still get their extra scout but others will get one at the start but cannot build more. If there are other things like dates and oasis bonus resources terrain tiles for the deserts you like let me know and we can add them in also. Its all up for grabs as far as I am concerned.

I'm pretty easy on settings. Does each of the players need the .bix file, or only the person setting up the game?

Just sent emails with the appropriate files out for Ricketyclik and Rasputin.
The new .bix files reference the snOOpys TerrainX, Lush Cities, and Industrial Sprawl art folders under the PTW/ scenarios folder. You must have those or the .bix won't display the correct art and probably will fail because the player sending the files has saved with that format. Do not know for sure but probably have to have all three. Not to worry though as all three are installed with the default install of PTW so you should have them unless you manually went in and deleted them.
Sent the 2 player and 3 player pbem turn 1 saves and both .bix's to Ricketyclik.
Sent the 3 player .bix to Rasputin.
Rasputin had a monitor go boom on him with the storms earlier this week so he is in the process of getting another and wants to join in later this weekend.
The three player turns should go Awsric Armitage, Rickety Clik, and Rasputin for sending order.
Cheers all.

Yeah, actually I was using it for both. The emails seem pretty stable between Rickety Clik and I so we are just sending the files back and forth now. The earlier posts were just to make certain we kept track of were the files were but from here on out we can use it for the three player. I started the three player and Rasputin sent it back to me before my last posting that sent it to Rickety Clik. He is away for the weekend so probably Monday the 3 player will continue.
