I did board games in PBEM14. I'm not sure if that's a plus for some ideas that you could steal from me or a negative because it's less original.

Since we're playing as Realms Beyond Civilization, what about naming cities with that theme?

Terra Incognita
Ultima Thule
Mappa Mundi
Terra Australis
...

Famous starships would be ok too.

Seems fine to me. Though "Enchanted Forest" wouldn't work due to the 15 character limit on city names.

Board games works for me, though I might before we tighten up the list a bit to make them more similar than "anything boardgame related."

"EnchantedForest" will, right?

Yeah, as long as you're not a stickler for the proper use of spaces. wink

Not sure how many of them would fit, but I'd like the idea of naming the cities after past Epics/Adventures. A cursory look through the list shows enough that would fit to name our cities.

I really don't like reusing the board game idea - its been done at least 3 times before.
I've got some dirt on my shoulder, can you brush it off for me?

I would also suggest past RB adventures/epics. And one per alphabet but not in alphabetical order. Yes, other teams will know founding order by diplo screen, but no need to make it easy for them


Or past RB naming themes. lol

I like this.
