Default The "I\'d like to play MP" thread

For those lucky buggers that are recieving the game soon and wish to jump right into a few games of MP when they recieve the game I felt this thread was appropriate.

This is mainly for those who want to play multi-player to look outside of their group of friends to play. How about we format the Posts as:

Name:
Type of Game: PBEM or TCP/IP
# of Players:
Contact Email:
Favored Race: (?)

Then you could get together those MP games you've been waiting for with those who would like to as well.

Edit: Added Contact Email.

It would be nice to have a seperate mp board so there'd be no need to search for your game's thread and people would know where to look for mp games. Just a request here. And I'd be up for playing a mp game when i get my copy.

I have a few MP questions.

1. Can you assign a time limit to a turn, as you can in Age of Wonders II, for instance?

2. How does the battle replay work in MP? If 1 player watches 1, do all the others have to watch as well?

3. How can anyone enjoy playing PBEM

I'll play anything, but I need to go through 8080, since it is my only open port..

I wonder if this game could use a PBW like system -- it works well with SEIV.
