Islands can be a ROUGH map. It would have to be C4F, even then it canbe uneven. E.g. The middle islands can be half jungle and the islands at the extreme north and south can be half ice and tundra. Otherwise I guess islands would be pretty good. ;D

Seems like we all prefer a fast timer and the most of us wqant c4f-Islands as the map. Maybe its a nice change for an epic.
So here are the final settings:
Era: ancient Map: C4f-Islands Size: standard Timer: fast Speed: quick Elimintion: none
Pick civs: yes Dupiclates: allowed
Players: 8-10
1.st Session: Saturday, September 9th 12:00 - 4:00 pm EST (5:00 pm - 9 :00 pm GMT), Warlordslobby 2.nd Session: Sunday, September 10th 12:00pm - 4:00 pm EST EST (5:00 pm - 9:00pm GMT), Warlordslobby

Still working on the wife, but I would like to play. Will try to confirm by Friday. Epic + Bopper = slow but very detailed death. Sounds cool.

Hm. Like I said above islands can be pretty uneven in terms of the type and amount of land you get. May be run it a few times in worldbuilder EBD and see what you think.

I would be willing to sub tomorrow, if anyone needs one! Standard sub considerations would have to apply because I am not good at playing with a turn timer of less than 24 hours. It would be a good practice game for me.

So who won it after I left to get a paltry 5 hours sleep before work (if that!)?
A good game, except for that oil fiasco that the map perpetrated and that uranium required fission (which cost me 5 million people and my GNP.)

And the last surviving Penguin gazes into the radioactive wasteland that once was his home. A lone teardrop tracing a glazed path down it's sunburned cheek. His 3 tiles of workable land were scattered with the brittle bones of his kin. Off in the northern distance he could detect a strangely shaped cloud of debris. Could this be a signal from those myterious Northern Gods who battled in the heavens? But lo, his plaintive cry goes unanswered. And the final tones of bereavement peal through the thin air of his decimated homeland.... 'Quack!'
