The Scipii PBM - Discussion & Suggestions

[Big King Sanctaphrax]

I'd be interested. Tell me, is it still one player-one reign, or are we doing 20 year periods, or something similar?

Good question.

As Simon Appleton posted in the RTW & PBMs thread:

10 years seems a reasonable length. 20 turns is more than enough to accomplish something of note. The lack of a natural break would make story writing a little harder, but it may be fun in a "one word story" kind of way.

I guess this is a good idea. I'll add it to my list of "rules".

That's cool.

My E-mail is proggerthanthou@gmail.com, I'd be obliged if you could add me to the list.

[Tricky Lady]

Done.

[Big King Sanctaphrax]

Thank you kindly.

I've played the first ten years of the campaign already; couldn't resist.
The Senate missions were not too difficult, in fact they pointed me always exactly to my next target. First mission: conquer Syracuse, next mission: conquer Lilybaeum, next one: blockade Carthage, and finally conquer Thapsus. The faction leader died in 262BC but I continued the game. Brought in some money by threatening the Greeks (who were gratefull to pay a few thousands for 4 turns) and by selling map info to other factions.

So it's your turn YAKOBU.

I'll post a story and a few pictures tomorrow.

Hi Tricky Lady and the rest of our Scipii PBEM team

I'm more than happy with your setup Tricky Lady. I've been playing on Normal size units but Large would seem to be more realistic. I just had a look at Huge but that seems to much for me just now .

I eagerly await my 20 turns
