New huge game, almost a diplo one...

carnide_ · December 10, 2000, 16:29

I'm looking to start a 1x1x game, on the huge earth map, downloaded from the apolyton database. Beware of the 255 total cities limit. You cannot just pupm up cities everywhere. Distances will be to large for great wars before RR. No more than 3-4 humans or turns will take ages. No barbs or Ais.
I think this will be almost a diplo game, because early war will be so difficult. But this is not to be a diplo game!
Any takers? ICQ me.

Yikes! When are you planning on playing this thing? Are you going to set up a regular timeslot for it?

Sure I am. This can only be done with dedicated players.

Sounds interesting, what times R U looking at?
Be nice to play a game that can get to middle age or late era economies & wars.

I trust this map is NOT known to U or anyone considering playing?

Actually, this map is a huge world map, downloaded from the apolyton database. I have played on it before.
So, plz download it from here http://apolyton.net/cgi-bin/civ2/db/review.cgi?ID=433, and take a look at it.
As an alternative, we could start on a random, unknow, huge map.
I was looking to start this game today, by 6pm EST. I'm in Portugal, this will be 11pm for me. I willing to play 2-3 hours each day. Let me know if this time is OK with you.

First time on this site. Never played Civ multiplayer. Am interested although prefer AI's and barbarians.
