Backward, but compatible
I'm not up-to-date on the latest version, but I'd be down with Civ PBEM in theory.
Ditto
I'd be in for CivIII, but I gotta wait to upgrade my video capability to go to CivIV (because the fact that my Stone Age Warrior's legs move when he's going from square to square is ever so important to me).
how does it work?
PBEM is new to me, can you give a quick rundown of what it involves?
It's basically just a civ
It's basically just a civ game with multiple human players that is played by emailing a save file around and having each player take their turn.
I've never tried it...the original feature I think went in with CivIII - play the world.
You can also play real networked civ, but the PBEM is appealing because it allows more schedule flexibility.
sounds cool
yeah, sounds cool. definitely preferable to networked, that always sounded like it would be a nightmare.
Well, I don't know if you
Well, I don't know if you have CivIV yet. If and when you do, let me know and we'll try a game.
Santa Brung
me a copy of Civ IV. I'm new to the genre, and so I keep getting my ass kicked.
But I'd be up for a PBEM game with you all, anyhow.
Brung?
I hope he *brought* you a dictionary, too.
;)
He Did
but the page with "brought" on it was all sooty.
as kaz pointed out
santa didn't brunged me a copy by my own doing. i was going to hold off til the WoW addiction subsided a little more. but i can probably pick it up next week when we're back from a new year's trip.
