    In a 3v3? Poland isn't that strong. Ducal Stables aren't all that strong. Winged Hussar's are lancers and so kinda suck since they don't have a good upgrade path. Because its 3v3 social policy advancement (especially lategame social policy advancement which is Polands big advantage) isn't as important.

    Is there some sort of action log for multiplayer? I have units taking damage from no discernible source well outside of any threatened location.

  • KafkaAUKafkaAU Western AustraliaRegistered User regular
    There is the notification log, in the drop down up near where the diplomacy screen is

    @Inquisitor‌77

    Also, is that the order in which you want your picks? I think we are playing Eth, Zulu, China. Do you want Japan,Poland,Korea

    wbBv3fj.png
  • KafkaAUKafkaAU Western AustraliaRegistered User regular
    We thought we had to pick in the order that we were playing, so yes that is the order.

    Yeah, it doesn't seem to list attacks. Hrm.

  • GoumindongGoumindong Registered User regular
    If i start a GMR game before people have chosen their civ and its still random, will that break things if i set their civ?

    wbBv3fj.png
  • KafkaAUKafkaAU Western AustraliaRegistered User regular
    I remember there is something that can break the selection. I think if you set it to something and GMR has it set to something else that can cause issues, but if you set the civ when its set to random, that should be fine, as GMR just grabs the civs from the save file if they are random IIRC.

    I made my turn earlier today, so hopefully everything is humming along. Let me know if my turn isn't showing and I'll try to figure it out...

  • GoumindongGoumindong Registered User regular

    I just played my turns for all my games. I had to download and upload the saves manually due to my PC not wanting to connect to the internet today.

    Hopefully it worked as it should, if not let me know and turns can be reverted if needed.

    This team game thing is neat. I'm totally checking every 5 minutes to see if its my turn again. I'd consider giving money to GMR for more spots if someone else wants to do another team game.

  • KafkaAUKafkaAU Western AustraliaRegistered User regular
    Hah, well Shim is asleep for another few hours, and I'm at work for 6 hours, so you've got to wait at least that long :)

    You should give them money, it's worth it. Going to tool around with GMR on setting up a game of some kind.

  • REG RyskREG Rysk Lord Rageface Rageington The Exploding ManRegistered User regular
    OK, I guess I missed the fact that you just get the people in the game and THEN set up the teams after, how about a 2v2v2v2?

  • KafkaAUKafkaAU Western AustraliaRegistered User regular
    Keen to play in any game that you guys will have me in :)

    It's too bad they don't let you do something like go through the first 5 turns without having to pass a save game back and forth...

    I've just registered for a GMR account, and am interested in getting in on the next available Civ MP madness here. I'm a pretty serious MP novice for the game, as fair warning.

  • REG RyskREG Rysk Lord Rageface Rageington The Exploding ManRegistered User regular
    Let's start getting people with interest in a 2v2v2v2 to specifically state interest. From there, I will do some randomization to select teams. After that, each team will be given the chance to ban two Civs from play in a draft order (first, second, third, fourth, fourth, third, you get the idea?) and then pick in the same order. Map type will be pangaea for early game shenanigans (and so people don't end up on other continents from their allies).

    Some modified rules (based loosely on the NO QUITTERS steam group)! There will be no capturing of workers or settlers just to steal them from your opponent when you find their territory early on. You may not have any diplomacy trade with AI players (if anybody ends up leaving the game), trade routes are perfectly fine. You may not gift cities to players if you're about to lose your city.

    Give me a signup to highlight your interest. Or if you can't figure out the bbcode just PM me. Also include your time zone, and expected times you can play your turn (I'll adjust for my time and sort out the order of players, unrelated to the teams we will be on.
