The Scipii PBM - Discussion & Suggestions

[Tricky Lady]

Hi all,

I decided to kick off the Scipii PBM thread.

As far as I know only myself and YAKOBU have signed up for this PBM thread yet. Anyone else interested? Please post here.

I will start the Scipii game tomorrow. As I haven't played any other faction than the Julii yet, this will be a totally new experience for me.
I'll launch the game on Hard campaign/Normal battle modes. YAKOBU, is this okay for you too? Other people who'd like to subscribe to this PBM game, please feel free to post your opinions here too. But don't hesitate too long as I'll launch my campaign tomorrow.

Resume:

• Hard campaign mode
• Normal battle mode
• Large unit sizes
• Manage all settlements
• I won't install any kill speed or other mods, unless enough people prefer so.
• Long campaign (obviously)
• Every player will play 10 years (or 20 turns in-game)
• Anything else ... ?

List of players so far:
Tricky Lady
YAKOBU
Big King Sanctaphrax
Chimpyang
Tamur

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.

Done.

Thank you kindly.
