At last! Been waiting for this.

270 BC rules:
Make yourself an empire around the Mediterranean Ocean (the known world), in the era when hellenes, romans and phoenicians ruled. Choose from a arsenal of legionaires, hoplites, onagers, cataphract, trireme, warelephant and many more.270 BC must be downloaded (it does not come with TripleA). Download it using TripleA’s download maps thingy, or download it manually here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/tripleamaps/files/maps/270BC.zip270 BC uses REVISED Rules.
There are no air units, so the rules are actually fairly simple.

Here is a tutorial of how to download maps from WITHIN TripleA:
http://www.desura.com/games/triplea/videos/how-to-download-mapsYou and your Opponent must decide on:
1. What dice rules to use (ie: Dice or Low Luck).
and
2. What side each player plays.If you can not agree, then:
1. You will use whatever rules are default for that map (ie: NWO is Low Luck, while Great War is dice)
and
2. I will roll a dice to determine who gets what side.Make a thread entitled “BotA - r3 - 270BC - <your name=”“>.vs. <opponent name=”“>”
And then get started!</opponent></your> -
Wow, there are war elephants :-D
-
YAY. Finally the map that I’m experienced on!! :-D

Excel sheet of current standings is attached.
Can I have this thread stickied yet please?

And thanks of the great excel sheet.

Pug surrenders in round 3 to Ajmdemen.

FYI to everyone,
one of our tourney members (hepster) decided to update the visuals for the 270BC map
there are no changes to the game setup or rules, it is a visual update only
(it won’t break your savegames either)download it to see the difference!

because of the holidays, games might slow down, etc, so please allow your opponents the benefit of the doubt if they do not post for a while

Are we supposed to use the new 1.6.1.4 to finish our current games?

@SantaClaus:

I don’t think you are supposed to use it. I think this kind of tournament game could be a bad place to suddenly try a new version of a game engine.
I might play the current tournament games with the old engine and start new games with the new engine.
That said, thanks Veqryn of the new version! Interesting new features. I guess I was not the only one forgetting to move a sub or whatever somewhere :D

It is up to you and your opponent, because if one of you starts using 1.6.1.4, then both of you have to.
This is because 1.6.1.4 can load savegames from 1.6.1.2, but 1.6.1.2 can not load savegames from 1.6.1.41.6.1.4 is stable though, so I would recommend everyone download it and start using it immediately (including for all their currently running games).
