Age of Empires II - Monday 16/7/97 (Game Details)

from the International Gaming Coalition

Yesterday I returned from my grande tour of Europe, eager to relieve gaming withdrawal symptons. So, I propose a game for next Monday. As I understand, most Finnish IGC members are not away on holiday at that time, however, further confirmation is needed.

If the game does not have a minimum of 3 players, it will be postponed/cancelled. The game will begin as usual at 16:oo Finnish time and 14:00 British time. Please make sure your game will not be disrupted by other plans. If this time is not suitable let me know and we can decide on another time.

Proposed game setting are as follows, may be changed due to popular demand.

Game: Random Map
Map Style: Real World
Location: Byzantium (Greece and western Turkey)
Resources: High
Population: 1000
Game Speed: Normal
Reveal Map: Explored
Starting Age: Dark Age
Victory: Conquest

This is the first time we are playing a real world map. If there is enough interest, I think it would be fun to run a campaign with a silly name like "IGC on Tour" where we play through a number of the real world maps, and declare the player with most wins as the winner. For starters I would propose a "Tour de Europe" with three games, Britain, France and Italy.

Let me know if you can play on monday and/or if you are interested in participating in this campaign!

Age of Empires II - Sunday 3/06/07 (Game Details)

from the International Gaming Coalition

To celebrate the beginning of the summer holiday for us Finns and to mock those who still have school, a game of AOC will be played coming Sunday. Due to various reasons I do not expect a large turnout, the game will be played provided a minimum of three people join (a fourth moderate computer will in that case be added) Below are my suggested settings for the game, although I will be happy to negotiate them.

The game is cheduled to begin at 14:00 British time and 16:00 Finnish time.

Game: Random Map
Map Style: Standard
Location: Rivers
Size: Normal
Resources: High
Population: 1000
Game Speed: Normal
Reveal Map: Explored
Starting Age: Dark Age
Victory: Conquest

Age of Empires II: The Conquerors - Game Sunday 3/6/07

How about a nice game of AOC to celebrate the end of school? For map type I was thinking of perhaps oasis or highland, since we havent played a map with no water yet. Regicide could be the name of the game today, since it allows for some nice cunning manouvers.

If you can make it please let me know asap, I would be happy to play with a min of 3 players, if needed we can throw in a 4th moderate computer. My proposed time for the beginning of the game would be 16:00, although that can be changed if required.
