Guys- I dont know bout U but I already got some constructive criticism for the game: Since it is an MP Spain hasn't got either a sufficiently big army, or alternatively not a sufficiently productive economy- it has got loads of cash though :confused: I have been playing in single-player to see how to best use the Spanish and it took me until mid 1943 to have some sort of an army (that'd probably not stand against a small attack by Britain or France anyway). The Strongpoints are too "strong" and make conquests too expensive- one would have to appear with a huuuuge army and suffer terrible losses in any counterattack !!

I don't know how realistic this is (history-wise) but I fear I won't have anything much to do for the first 45 turns :mad:

SPAIN is not playable i a multiplayer game !!!!!!! (just realised that I can't even scratch the paint with the Spanish arsenal- just lost 4 field artillery and one bomber against an entringed infanty)


Then get an ally!
You've got money but can't make good units (realistically I doubt you'd even have the money) then ally with someone who can make good units.
They'll then gift you these to use against others (with all likelyness thier enemies).
As for the strong points I think ther power is being reduced in the next version.
 
Italy questions the turkish practice of attacking sovreign nations without even declaring war (the fact that the germans just did that is irelevant).
You should be aware that the Greek dictator and the axis powers have very close ties...
Further agression against Greece will be regarded as a declaration of war against Italy.

Hard to get an Ally when I try to stay neutral to stay out of trouble when not having an army ;) But I am sure that Spain's way will lead it to prosperityin the near future :D (hope the SP are fixed soon)
 
From this turn on British troops will be, er, "protecting" the ports of Amsterdam and Antwerp. The governments of Holland and Belgium requested this to prevent an attack by Germany, and they also wished Britain to have at least some presence on the continent with which to counter any future German aggression. With the help of the RAF, the Dutch garrison of Arnhem has disbanded itself so that France may take up the task of the city's defense.

Unfortunately, several divisions of Belgian infantry have deserted and rebelled against their country, fearing that Britain and France hoped to dominate their country for profit and not protection. Therefore we have had no choice to attack them, and only a few remain. Hopefully the French can defeat the remainder of the rebels and drive to Arnhem as agreed to in secret.

In domestic news, several terroristic bombing attacks by Irish nationalists have forced our troops to march into the Irish Republic and put it under permanent British control. Every city on Ireland now flies the Union Jack. We will no longer accept their continued harboring of terrorists. ;)
 
Here is the current situation in the Low Countries. As you can see, Arnhem's garrison has disbanded and awaits its replacement by French troops, but the flag flying over Brussels indicates the revolt there has not yet been broken.

*nothing useful to report in-game

I am pissed off with the fact that at the beginning of the scenario it says that Spain has 32 units at start while it is only 26 !!! In a scenario where the average starting strength is of 81- now it turn out I'am even smaller than i thought before :(
 
There is something wrong. All my cities already have production queus now, and when I play it in SP, I can change without losing production. It's very stupid, because all my small cities are building bank ...

Is there something wrong with the playing order?

I am having trouble following you here.
As it is set in the rules.txt, there is a 50% penalty for switching production types mid-build. That is, from units to wonders, to city improvements. This does not change SP to PBEM.

They playing order whould not have an effect on that at all. Is there a separate issue with that?

-FMK.
 
Hmm, I've experienced situations (not in this scenario mind you) where when switching production a penalty popup didnt appear, however if you inspected the shields more carefully you'd find that they had indeed been reduced by the percentage given in the rules (the game just didnt ask first), might that be it here?
 
everyone needs to go here and download the new Games files.
We're going ot have to start the game over.
Spain and Turkey get ability to build fighters, happiness problem fixed, pollution problem fixed. Everyone will be able to build Jet Fighters.
Britain and France are able to build Carriers. Germany and Italy start off with a carrier building built but yo ucan't change it cause if u change production you'll have ot wait to discover the technology to build them

Go here to download
