Diplo Game Replacements Needed

cavebear · March 24, 2001, 20:16

We have lost 2 players in the Cavebear Diplo Game, and are looking for replacements (permanent ones). One is for the Mongols (at the top of the PG) and one is for the Egyptians (who are in good shape). All civs have 20-30 cities, and the game is well-balanced and no one is out of serious contention. It is a rather friendly game so far, but I'm sure things will start to heat up soon (we are at 1130 AD).

The game is on Sundays at 4 pm EST (GMT -5). I can provide some information on the civs.

You can review the progress of this game in the following thread:

Ecthelion... AbsurdDoctor is returning this week to resume his leadership of the Celts. You would need to take over the Horde (Mongols) or Egyptians.

It is true that the Horde do lead on the Power Graph, but they lost the Hanging Gardens when Railroad was discovered, and have been in anarchy for many turns. It will take some work to get things fixed for that tribe. Also, this game has a 30 city limit and the previous ruler of the Horde did not know this and built 3 new cities. So, 3 of the Horde cities will need to be disbanded as soon as possible.

The Egyptian (Tuatha Da Danann) tribe is not as strong on the power graph, but their government is stable.

Markusf... The game has moved along quickly to this point. However, we will be switching from simul to turn based this session. That will slow things down some, but it is hoped that it will encourage more diplomacy (negotiations).

The game is set to resume today at 4 PM eastern time and we will play until 7 PM eastern time.

Could you take over the Egyptians permanently?

Markus - I've just emailed you some information on the game, asking that you take the Mongol Horde. But I see Epik and I are posting at the same time (good summary, Epik).
