That is random. I was thinking maybe comic book characters? Or something a little more...... down to earth.

Cant wait!

So tell me a little more about yourself as far as Civ 4 gamewise. AI level you beat, general strategy you like to use, civs/leaders ect ect

I tend to play somewhere between Prince and Emperor, with Emperor definitely being a challenge. I favor peaceful building as much as possible, I don’t think I’m the best at warring unless I have a decent tech edge. This leads me to favor Creative/Expansive/Financial, Mansa Musa and Willem being two that come to mind. This also means my military is usually pretty light, which can work against the AI but not as well in Multiplayer.

Religion isn’t something I usually chase until later in the game, worker techs and BW etc almost always are more important.

Weaknesses aside from military ability would include difficulty specializing cities, and not utilizing great persons nearly enough. I’m thinking the 24 turn timer would help in that regard to allow more time for strategic thinking.

Hey, so I just popped into your PB39 game for about 30 seconds to make sure I had things set up correctly on my end with all the stuff required to connect just in case, it looks like that worked, I just have a dumb question.  Where did you get the server name from?  I used pitboss.watto.no:2057 which you had linked in the setup thread, but if I hadn't have seen that, is there somewhere to find that info?  I assume each game has it's own number?

Nevermind, it gets posted at the start of the tech thread once the game is created.  bang

I... really hope #2 picks zulu.. although i know i can cause alot of damage with persia..but zulu UB + any of the aggressive leaders that i want... 40% reduced costs is the bomb. Specially if i can get a agg/imp leader.. cant recall if there is one.

I got to grab ZULU. As our resident new player RFS-81 chose a rather eh leader as a First pick.. interesting to see what he chooses as a civ.

That will definitely keep costs down. If paired with an aggressive leader, I assume that would get built in basically every city due to the half cost and -maintenance?
