I like Canada. (But I'm not a member so my vote doesn't count)

Beta · November 27, 2002, 23:41

I like Canada too. Hey - I live here. But do we really want to be peacekeepers. Or have a leader's aid who calls other leaders' morons. And who will be the leader - Pierre Trudeau, or Shania Twain. OK - that one was easy.

On a more serious note, I see the warmongers are taking the Chinese. I like Religious and Militaristic - I like the Celts. The unique unit looks OK. GA comes early though.

V for Vikings - pretty strong UU, but expansionist never did much for me. Also, the PTW manual says that Berserkers have amphibious attack capability. Anybody tried that out yet. If we end up with an island world - might be useful. And that 6 attack strength. Hmmm..

How about the Japanese - I gotta be honest - in all the times I've played civ III, I've never played the Japanese.

Persians - not a big fan of the traits, but the UU works.

How about a twist on the new team - we take the Germans. Long way to go until the GA.

It looks like two teams are duking it out over the Egyptians.

And the classics - Romans and Greeks - have always been OK in my books. I love the hoplites for the early grab and defend game.

So - Celts - Persians - Japanese or V for Vikings - Greeks - in that order. I know - lots of choices. Celts are still number 1. Gotta love swordsmen who run as fast as horses.

Any word on our private forum? And our team still says four members? What gives.

Celts are a good choice esp. if we plan on warring in the ancient age.

Japan is a great civ. Very handy uu in the early middle age.

I used to love the Aztecs, but their uu comes just too early. I just like native americans being as I am part native american.

If we want something more peacful babylonians aren't too shabby. Carthagians aren't bad as a peacetime civ either. Their uu is expensive but is useful for a very long time.

Also in a hotseat game I was using for testing purposes (by myself 8 human civs), the Ottomans did fairly well. I haven't played them all the way through though. And haven't tested their uu.

Eli · November 28, 2002, 01:59

My choices :
1) Persia
2) America
3) Babylon

Eli · November 28, 2002, 02:00

Dissident : The Ottomans are great, but they were already taken.

alva · November 28, 2002, 06:08

Oh, you got the V's ...
Who are these guys with the red/black dog-icon then?

Besides: Have you decided which civ to play yet?

That's not a dog, it's the Carl's Jr Star!

Or a catsup stain.

I would like to announce that I am Joint consul of Foreign Affairs of GoW along with Unorthodox. I am responsible for relations with Vox Controli. If your team wants to talk with mine, contact me.

(Notice I am Canadian; you can trust me)

Beta · November 30, 2002, 00:08

Understood. Please stand-by. We are accessing the One Voice and will be back to you soon.

We too can be trusted.

Cheers.

(since no one else wanted it, I assume I get our Foreign Minister job)

Panzer :
Can you get ICQ? It will be much more easier to discuss stuff this way instead of emails and PMs.

Panzer32 · November 30, 2002, 08:48

No, I don't have icq; what we could do is set up an appointment on the Apolyton chat.

Zero · November 30, 2002, 12:49

You have to make the civ decision by TOMORROW! I think you guys are the only one who doesnt have any idea of who you are going to play. (Unless it has been discussed in private forum)

Well let us know before Dec. 1

ThePlagueRat · November 30, 2002, 12:55

Yeah calc2, deadline is near...

flash9286 · November 30, 2002, 13:26

Zero · November 30, 2002, 15:15
