[PB62] Organizing and tech thread

If I have understood correctly Civac has plenty of mp experience, just from different forum. But the more new players we get to this 20 year old game the better smile

PB55 was my first Civ4 MP game. But I had lurked civforum PBs for half a decade or so which helped some. lol A bunch of things also really broke my way in that game.

Nevertheless, I agree with Mjmd that first time players can win slow Civ4 MP matches. Plemo did so and I think also Cutty Fram, an elite civforum player from the days of yore.

I had some help. wink

But I agree, new players can do fine in non-greens games. Especially (but not necessarily) with an active and engaged dedlurker, which makes a huge difference.

As long as the newer players have ded lurkers and know they have long odds. Amica and Civac did well in PB55 despite being newer and being against much more experienced players. But up to you.

"Superdeath seems to have acquired a rep for aggression somehow. [Image: noidea.gif] In this game that's going to help us because he's going to go to the negotiating table with twitchy eyes and slightly too wide a grin and terrify the neighbors into favorable border agreements, one-sided tech deals and staggered NAPs."
