Looking for someone to play
Hey all,

I've been away from Civ II MP for a couple years now, but I'd like to get back into it.

I have a fairly variable schedule, so I really can't commit to a set time once a week or something like that, but I'd love to play a two or three player game (or two) that can be completed whenever the players have time (the fewer players, the easier it is...). That's not to say that I don't have time to play fairly often, just probably not for hours on end and not on a fixed schedule.

Anyway, I'll agree with just about any rules, except it should be a rather small map and no 2x movement.

I was pretty good at MP a couple years ago, but I'm sure I've grown a bit rusty.

If you want to start a game like this you can reach me at:

ICQ #13189688
or
AIM: Abnormal Hybrid

Thanks
Dave

Check out the rah rules thread, and if you still have interest, check out the setting up ip thread and others. There are always games going on. We do have a lot of one night stands though.

Thanks for the help guys. But I've done my homework so to speak.

I'm aware of the zone , and Rah, I've looked over your rules. They seem fine, but the fact is, that I would really like to play a game to the finish with a small number of people, without having to play for hours on end each session. My understanding of the IP thread is eveyone just gets together who can play that day, but I'd like to play a game to completion. And it seems like I'd have to play just about every day in order for the right combo of players to come up again to finish a game...

I'm on the Civ II MP list here and I've added almost eveyone to my ICQ/AIM, but I just thought I'd post this up so people interested in a game like this could contact me, instead of me going through eveyone. Just thought it'd save some time.

So anyway, If I wasn't clear, let me try it again.

Actually, War, your last post on the Fair Starting Positions thread summed up my position pretty well.

--can't commit to a certain time each week
--some weeks I'm busier than others
--would prefer a 1 vs. 1 game (duel as it's been called)
--play it to completion whenever we both have time
--usually can't play for hours on end (probably 2-3 hours most of the time)

Anyway, if any of you are interested in a game like this IM me. Even if you don't currently have time to start, just let me know you're interested.

Thanks.

well running water, were in the same boat, and i know other players out there like ourselves.

your best bet is too play a couple of different games and alternate between the two or three.....

Deity Dude is good for later night games, not sure your exact time frame, hes a good guy, a bit slow but thats his connection and not just his brain

hunt around, feel free to add me to icq as well 30200920

currently DD and i have a game to finish, its just entering the middle ages tech wise, but we have a long way to go still

I've added you to my AIM list. If you're ever on we can play. Your schedule is much like mine on the weekdays even though I have plenty of time to play 7-8 hour sessions on the weekends
