Anyone up for some MP today / tonight?

My horribly under-improved land...



...was at least balanced out by this city:



Phi + National Epic = +75 gpp with 5 specs! (would have been +100 if I had remembered to adopt a religion for the pacifism bonus )

GG to all!

Oh god, please tell me you didn't grow to size 9 off 2/0/1 grasslands (then again, it can be hard not to on a blazing turn timer)

[Shoot the Moon]

Well that was something. I felt like a chicken with my head cut off with the type of pace these MP games go at.

ggs everyone, I enjoyed getting the experience

Yeah, the pace sort of forces you to learn the civ interface more fully. Little things like turning off popups (if you haven't already you definitely need to for MP) and clicking on the city bar to change builds instead of fully going into the city screen are really helpful.

In that regard, I need to start utilizing keyboard commands more.

Yeah, that was an accident, but it was towards the end--i was working those four food tiles and 4-5 specs most of the game.

Very fun game. I'd enjoy doing something like that again, if we could get enough people together.



Highlight of the match for me was building a very early WE + Galley, and then murdering a beach-combing Great Artist with them about 40 turns later.

Shortcuts are great!

f for fortify/wait

Space for skip turn

t for cottage

i for farm

m for mine

h for camp

alt-c for chop

shift-w for winery, windmill or watermill

shift-f for fort

r to road, alt-r road-to

Shift-click unit portraits to add units on a tile to a control group, ctrl-click to select all of the same unit type, and alt-click to select absolutely everything on that tile.

ugh! sorry i missed it!

Would anyone be up for a game tonight around 8-9 EST?

[pindicator]

Sadly can't, off to a wedding soon. But that game yesterday has got me interested about doing that Renn pitboss teamer game you were proposing

If you talking about 20:00 EST I'd be up probably. Would prefer EitB though.
