Civilization IV w/Warlords -- New game starting up! - Page 2

**kormendi** · 05-04-2007, 03:10 PM

I wont know if I can take part until Saturday afternoon.. pretty much right before the game starts. My internet connection has been unusable this past week, so I can't commit to anything until it shows an extended period of usability.

I don't even have warlords yet. I've been planning on grabbing it off Steam, but my connection hasn't even been stable enough to make the purchase.

Ok last call for input.

Here's what I'm looking at for layout:

Civ IV Warlords
Start time will be 1:30p EST Saturday
4 human slots (Bismarck, Shaka, ?, ?)
6 AI slots
Map: Continents
Size: Huge
Climate: Temperate
Sea Level: High
Era: Ancient
Speed: Normal
World Wrap: Cylindrical
Resources: Standard

Multiplayer Options that will be on
Simultaneous Turns
Take over AI
Turn Timer: 22 hours (should end up around 24 real hours, server clock runs fast)

All Victories

Game Options that will be on
Lock Modified Assests

Playable slots:
Germany - Bismarck
Zululand - Shaka
Rome - Augustus Caesar
Vikings - Ragnar
7 AI slots with random civs/leaders

Sugar or Cingular, if you guys want to make any changes to what I've layed out, please contact Apophis before early Saturday morning.

Augustus Caesar is a good leader for a kormendi, since he's never played Warlords. If he can't make it, I'll log into Rome and retire it to AI.

Cingular, if you don't like Ragnar and are unable to contact Apophis, you can take one of the AI slots. The only problem is the AI plays the first turn as soon as the server is started.

I sent a PM to you and Apo. I'd like America-FDR.

I'm out for Sunday folks. Computer issues.

|TG|SugarNCamo · 05-05-2007, 01:07 PM

Sum... it's today, not Sunday.

No it's not...

Somebody had a bad transmogrifier...

Sumluv59 · 05-06-2007, 02:33 AM

Sorry. I had to re-format my hard drive. Lost just about everything.

Who won?

**CingularDuality** · 05-06-2007, 07:19 PM

I won.

Sumluv59 · 05-07-2007, 09:14 AM

Nice. I'm hoping maybe next Saturday I can give it another try.

I think Warlords is a lot more challenging than regular CIV 4. The AI isn’t a pushover any more. BaneII, Snail and I are having some great games. It would be interesting to have a more human presence.

Have any of you used Hamachi (LAN based) to connect? It seems to make the IP firewall thing go away and it's free.

www.hamachi.cc/download/

d23 · 05-07-2007, 10:58 PM

Using that. Do you guys have a network to join? Perhaps we can create a TG Civ 4 network?

**CingularDuality** · 05-07-2007, 11:25 PM

We tried using Hamachi and still couldn't get everyone connected.

It sucked.

|TG|SugarNCamo · 05-08-2007, 09:19 AM

Yeah it was pretty awful -- sorry my transmogrifier went bad. I asked at Best Buy.. he said they were out of stock. *shrug*

BaneII · 05-08-2007, 02:14 PM

When playing this game in multiplayer, it's an unfortunate must to have someone familiar with networking. You are going to have issues with firewalls (whether software or hardware) even when using Hamachi.

|TG|SugarNCamo · 06-12-2007, 09:10 AM

Hey guys! I connected with my sis over hamachi this past weekend to play part of a game of Warlords -- anyone wanna try this again maybe toward the end of the month?

Would you mind testing your connection to my machine too? PM me with a time, should only take a few minutes to see if it works or not.
