I want to say thanks for this beautiful expansion of a game I love. And please forgive my english, it's not my first langage.

A friend of mine print the map on a banner nearly 3 meters long and in full color. The result is fantastic.
We play almost every 2 months with groups from 4 to 9 players and change almost everytime the area we play. I found India a little less interesting because of the lack of interaction between players, there is to few neighbours except by sea and some players have no acces to sea.

We have a core of 5 players always willing to play but it's hard to find others for a game which take almost 12 hours. Peoples are used to smaller games. I love them too but I have never the opportunity to try Civilization with a full table of 18. So, if some of you are in Belgium or near it, email me.

I will post the result of our next game.

here comes the result of a 6 players game:

First Minoa, 20 techs+ 80 pts AST and 6 cities
2: Hellas, 21 techs, 65 AST and 9 cities
3: Rome, 19 techs, 65 AST and 5 cities
4: Carthage, 19 techs, 65 AST and 4 cities
5: Iberia, 16 techs, 65 AST and 9 cities
6: Celtes, 10 techs, 60 AST and 7 cities.

Carthage mastered nearly 2/3 of the game (rome left him Sicilia nearly undisputed), before 3 turns with 2 calamities.
Minoa buy Military at the right times and keep ennemies at large enought time to win the game.

PS: I play Minoa.

Hey,

I live in the northwest of the Netherlands. we play with 5-8 players.

spreek je nederlands? of Frans?

Maybe we can do an excahnge some day.
First we have to explore the new expansion before we can do this. Let me know what you think.

hi,

we speak french and ik begrijp niet goed nederlands. I live near the Luxembourg in a town call Arlon. Look at Mappy or another program in the same sort to see the distance between us. If it is not to far away and the language is not a problem, we can make a common game perhaps.

No offense, but we don't speak french. I guess it's gonna be a problem.

If we all speak english we can manage. Keep it in mind. (we all do)

have fun!
