War and Civilization 2

Submitted by Crian on Wed, 2008-02-06 04:25. Space Empires V Multiplayer

Hello!

I'm Crian and I'm starting my 2nd PBW game War and Civilization 2 at the PBW site. This is for SEV v. 1.66 with BM 1.13.

I had to cancel the first game I started because of multiple reasons, unfortunately Sad :(. Anyway, with the tons of improvements in the game done by the latest slew of patches I'm definitely gonna push through 'till the end with this one so come on let's play! Laughing out loud

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you're interested here are the guidelines I set for the game:

1.) This is an open game with no rules, etc. I hope to play with 5 other players and I won't start until there are 6 of us so please be patient.
2.) When creating your race, please be aware of the settings I've chosen for the game because if your empire doesn't meet the settings I'll reject it and you'd have to upload another one.
3.) Roleplay! Choose your empire's role, pretend you're a minister, emperor, president or whatever, have fun! No contacting each other outside the game ok? Unless it's about something else then it's ok, but don't go planning things or something via chat or email because that would be unfair.
4.) As much as possible please don't leave. It's ok if you miss turns a few times just not too many.
5.) For questions, email me at

Starting resources: 100000
Starting planets: 3
Home planet value: Good
Score display: Own, allied
Technology points: Low
Racial points: 2000
Quadrant type: Paradise
Quadrant size: Medium
Event frequency: Medium
Event severity: Medium
Technology cost: Medium
Victory conditions: Sole Survivor, alliance or domination
Maximum units: XXX
Maximum ships: XXX
Computer players: None
Computer difficulty: N/A
Computer player bonus: N/A

I'm a first-timer, but I'd like to get my feet wet Smiling Hope it's ok to use a custom race?

This is the one I've used to create my empire.

Ah, I already wondered, if you had forgotten that you wanted to start another game. Eye-wink
Our last game was really much fun. I have pended join, however I will probably be away for one week relatively soon. If you don't want a player to miss the first turns, just kick me.

Shrike:
Sure why not? Everybody should download it though to make sure there are no problems so I suggest everyone to do so. Smiling

Blubel:
Hey there! Yes it was fun while it lasted LOL! It'll be fine I won't kick you, but if we start while you're away just be prepared that it's out of your hands while you're away. Smiling

Great! Now I'll still need to know how to do a proper upload of my empire file though.

Another Shadow user? Awesome! I'm an MP and PBW virgin myself and would like to get my feet wet as well some day. Time is my problem. How much time is involved in playing? Is it like a turn every few days or something similar? Smiling

To Shrike:
Someone has to upload it to he website first so that it can be used. I've taken the liberty of doing this although from reading the shipset thread it seems to have some bugs with it. We'll just see I guess.

Vince278:
Usually within a day, no more than 2. Sometimes it happens that the turn gets processed within an hour when for some reason all of you are online but that's pretty rare.

I still can't see Shadows in the dropdown lists. Who do we need to bribe to get this done Smiling

*edit: mail sent to geoschmo.

I can't find your game in list, it's name - War and Civilization 2?

Shrike: Are Shadows still not there? If not, could you choose a stock shipset for the meantime? There's always the next game for the Shadows Smiling. Everyone's already ready except you. Unless the shipset is installed in the PBW server and by all players, we're gonna have trouble using it so if it's still not installed choose a different set for this game for now so we can start. Smiling

AndreyKl: Yes that's the name but the slots are all full now. Next time hop in plus I'm sure there are lots of other games there. Smiling

Shrike: Ok, upload you empire. Make sre it's not similar to the others Smiling. Oh and mind the rules. Smiling

Blubel: You didn't specify your flagset and race pic I hope you're still there.

Hopefully we'll start within the next day.

I am still here. Is there anywhere a list witch names all empire names, flags and race pictures. (I know I can search the empire files until I have found it, but is there no other way?)
Ok, just found all the pics. Have changed and reuploaded my empire, there where already to much blue flags in the game. Eye-wink

All set!

Just got word from Geoschmo by the way. He's added the Shadows to the server, so any future games may use it Smiling

Game has started! Laughing out loud

I've made a liiiittle mistake though... I named the game "wac2" instead of "WaC2" that I specified on the server. It should be fine though, what are the chances someone else has a similarly named game with only the upper and lower cases different? Smiling

Let's play!

I have to leave now for a few days but I should be back around Tuesday. Please do not notice anything the AI may say to you Smiling
I realy like the AAR (and hope that I will find the time to add something, too.)

Hmmm... since blubel will be away, I guess he wouldn't mind if I force a couple of turns until when he comes back, huh? Smiling

EDIT: Naah it wasn't in the rules. Anyway, I'll just let the turn limit expire as normal so he wouldn't miss more than 2 turns at most....

In the meantime, I'll join other games to overcome the boredom. Sticking out tongue
