Peloponnesian War PBEM?

The ANZAC · February 15, 2002, 19:01

I was thinking: How about a PBEM with Alex's scenario on the Great Peloponnesian War? Does this interest anyone and seem feasible? I think all the main sides are evenly matched and it would make an interesting game. If so, we'll start casting lots for poleis. I take Athens.

Post your feelings about this, I'm interested to hear.

Here's a list of nations and a link for downloading the scenario (It's in order of play):

Sparta: ?
Peloponnesian Union: ?
Delian Union: ?
Athens: The ANZAC theanzac@optonline.net
Messenia: ?
Boeotia: ?
Fessalia: ?

is not balanced enough for an arena pbem game

athens is way stronger than sparta, I don´t know if the rest of the nations get involved,

give it a try, it´s an excellent scenario

LOL, Anzac, we both just proposed starting new PBEMs within about half an hour of each other. I'll join yours if you join mine

Anazc what about the other Greek Wars one.. with all of Greece adn empire building??/ I think its called hellas

The ANZAC · February 15, 2002, 21:55

Hellas...I've heard of it, but where can I get it and what is it exactly about? I'll give it a spin once I get it and see how it goes. We might switch to that.

Its an excelent scen for MP/PBEMs, there was an hellas pbem about 6 months ago, you might want to check up on that thread (especially whoever gets athens)

Soundwave · February 16, 2002, 22:01

Come on Anzac we will play Hellas!!

You have Athens and i'll have.... Chalcideans... but i think no Perisan Player.. to Powerful...

You will need another 3 players....

Other Greeks:

I guess Soundwave has made the decision for me!

Sure, Let's sign up people!

Soundwave · February 17, 2002, 02:57

LOL let the Hoplites Advance to BATTLE!!!

Okay, I've downloaded Hellas. Thanks for the link Henrik, you're right, it'll be great for MP.

I'll take Thebes, so long as everyone promises to go easy on poor little me

BTW Soundwave, you forgot to put the Corinthians in the player list.

Other Greeks - AI
Sparta -
Persia - AI
Athens - The ANZAC - theanzac@optonline.net
Chalcideans - Soundwave - seanie_babes@hotmail.com
Corinth -
Thebes - winterfritz - winterfritz_21@yahoo.com

The Other Greeks are too powerful for a human player, and should be left with the AI. Corinth and Sparta are playable and still open though.

This news announced by the town criers of Thebes, and quickly spreading through all of Hellas...

'Whichever wise and benevolent city-state that decides to teach the artisans of Thebes the knowledge of shipbuilding shall earn the eternal gratitude and friendship of our our leader, the Tyrant Janus, and his loyal subjects.'

The ANZAC · February 17, 2002, 10:39

Once we get everyone filled up, we'll start.

BTW can some mod change the title of this thread to "Hellas PBEM"? Thanks, I've seen it done before.

The ANZAC · February 17, 2002, 10:46

Actually, forget what I just said, I'll start a new thread and we can shut this one down.
