If you are seeking for more CIV IV activity you may find this information interesting. There is an active spanish community based on apolyton subforum. They start 3-4 pitbosses per year and I am currntly playing in 3. There is a league with ranking.
I must pull your attention that settings they play drastically differ from those are played here at RB. But may be this is what some of you are seeking for.
The common settings are:
1) script generated maps, not even modified manually
2) random leaders and anonymous play
3) tech trading and diplo allowed
4) huts and events on
5) big maps
They have a big set of formal rules regulating some minor aspects and player behaviour. Also they use mod which splits up timer when wars begin and aggregates some usefull statistics at the web-interface. Awesome thing, honestly.
So there is a new pitboss going to start on approximately 1st of April and some emptyspots in https://apolyton.net/forum/civilization-...pt-lemuria
You will find links on rulew and detail settings inside.
Few words from myself:
1) speaking Spanish is not mandatory, even for diplo. Google translator is your friend.
2) diplomacy is not very time consuming. The NAP is limited by 40 turns. Personally I prefer to play my own game but sometimes making alliances is inevital.
3) someone can say that their skill level is low. This is true but there are decent players and even if you get lucky to consume a couple of neighbors you might find yourself hated and isolated. So it will be challenging anyway.
4) everything random often results in the most balanced and competative game
5) games have its unique friendly atmosphere and if you like it for once you will join games over and over. Exactly as I do.
Ok enough advertising I guess. I will be happy to answer your questions. Or see you in game.
