Holy shit neither random world not terra are fair for everyone, at all, in the slightest.
ONLY I repeat ONLY fair map is Pangea. (Unless you have the DLC with Pangea plus)
Random Civs is fine but if someone gets Venice they're fucked but if people choose you will probably still be fucked.
If you would like an explanation on why these things are true, please ask.
Your biggest concern should really be, who will the host the game. I do this thing with 8 friends on almost a daily basis. But we have never finished a game because around 150-200 turns everything starts lagging bad due to the number of entities required to load and eventually crashes. I am usually host and no I do not have a shitty computer, but 8 civilizations at turn 200 is a massive amount of data to process. And it sounds like you want to do it with more than 8. In addition you have people overseas whose ping will add to an extra lag.
I just want to keep your ideas realistic. It can be done but it will be lengthy and difficult
I almost recommend Skype for communicating but we do have a TS3 channel

what how is pangea fair? if ur a naval civ ur gunna be shit in the game so in a way pangea" is not at all in the slightest fair" terra is more fair than it and more fair than island
the reason why its best for random it because then its random - but still u got a point about it
we should settle for either continents or small continents - islands is too naval power based while pangea is too land power based

and about the ping problem i already knew some of us would lag so im waiting to see wholl join and decide from there

like me for example i wanna be carthage and its mostly a naval power civ - mostly

Brave New World did a whole lot to improve load times over simple Civ 5. Does everyone have BNW?

No civ relies solely on navy. That is why pangea is the best. Terra is alright, but gives to much power to Navy which alienates every civ without navy which is the majority. While Pangea alienates civs that rely ONLY on navy, which is none.
Continents is the least fair map you could choose.

ottomans do - have u seen their ability? ya they have 2 very nice unique land units but their ability is pure naval - every melee ship u have from the lowly trireme to the modern destroyer u can take enemy ships - and they only pay for 1/3 the price for every ship

carthage is less naval but their ability is for only coastal cities- every coastal city you have automatically gets a harbor meaning automatic city connections - and they do have a uu that is a ship
then there is england who has +2 movement to every naval unit and a uu that is a ship as well
and many others who have naval uu like the netherlands byzantines

then theres some other civs that are made almost powerless on pangaea like the polynesians who can move over ocean tiles immediately which is pretty useless when everything is on one landmass in my opinion as i find my favorite use of them is that they usually find all the civs first and can settle anywhere pretty much - then the indonesians who rely on other continents for their ability of every new city other than the capital founded on a different landmass than the one the capital is on gets 2 extra UNIQUE luxuries

im sorry but there are quite a few civs who are alot worse on 1 landmass - same goes for the land civs on island maps - yes no civ is completely useless on 1 continent but it goes both ways not 1 civ is completely useless on islands thats why continents are the most fair its the closest to middle ground between naval and land you can get - unless u want terra which naval civs will be best for finding the land while land civs will do best on the one continent in the end its every1s choice what we go for not just one person


ps indonesia carthage and ottomans are 3 of my favorites carthage being favorite

edit: fixed stuff to make more sense provided more info and it wasnt battleship lol it was the destroyer

Lol. Fine we can play islands. I'll be the Huns or China. Whoever is on an island with me will be eliminated before turn 50. Unless just one person then before turn 25. Then while I wait for people to develop navys to come reach me I will have an entire landmass to myself to farm science and gold. Sounds fair.

Your swinish Huns will be no match for my Samurais! If not Japan, then I will be either Rome or Germany. Bismarck + Autocracy = World Domination!

Do we play with all victory conditions, or just Domination, and with or without Barbarians?

@nikonprobably all victory types - maybe minus diplomacy - and with barbarians
@silo i didnt say wed play on islands im just saying on pangaea its unfair for naval civs because they dont stand a chance when very few people are even on the coast
