I'm fine with a GW ban, though I was under the impression that it's going to be a rather tight map, with little free space for barbs to spawn in.

I wasn't sure about the map, but if there is going to be significant spare room for barbs to spawn, I concur with the GW ban.

Well, I probably can't apply myself for a greens game, but if you guys need a 4th and don't mind me, I'd join. I won't have time for microing every single move and stuff, so it shouldn't be too unbalancing.

I wouldn't mind too much. Would just like the game to start swiftly!

2 games is ok with me, too. Either way.
Those will be 2 games with the same map, right?
And dumping the great wall is probably the right thing if we are getting CG3 archers off the top - I had forgotten about those.

Technical question: these archers starting with CG1, 2 and 3 but with 0XP? Or are they level 3 units?

As for the Great Wall thing and all that stuff - can we get some map size clarification first? You can go ahead and assume 4 players. Is the kind of space we're looking at going to make 3 cities apiece pretty cramped? Or is it one of those things where we could probably settle quite a few more than 3 cities if rules didn't restrict us?
Basically, I had been guessing that the early game will be players vs barbs and then player-player combat is more likely to not happen until closer to the end of the game. I was also guessing that would mean barbs would spawn almost all game unless the players all invest in fogbusting. So is it going to be more cramped or more spacey?

Also - are we cool with a central trash-talking thread so long as nobody tries to make deals with it? I figure we can't have a cramped AW game without a little bragging/mocking, but I don't want this to turn into a diplo-on game.

Yeah, some room for banter would be nice.

I'm OK with a banter thread.
So, we come to a finished conclusion here?
