New PBEM - 8 players!

here a world map. Just cut the part you are interested in. Put it as background in any paint program (coreldraw, openoffice-draw, powerpoint etc).

strange, i must put it to a rar file. the forum does not allow png with such large scale, even if the file itself is only 42KB.

btw: in the europe map is still missing some infos about british fleet in atlantic. And another expanded map exists yet, where north africa and mediterranean is attached to the south. I will post later. Now i have soccer-training. Hope i can finish my turn tonight.

Once i finished my first turn i will improve this program to full automatic and give it a gui. after that i will provide this here. Maybe i extend it to a real map editor. Lets see ;)
 
Ok german move done. but rest (ita/hun) still missing. Turn goes out tomorrow. Promised. I guess this one more day does not make any difference now... ;)
 
Bad news :(.

Can make my turn earliest on saterday, mayby monday, because my calendar is full with private stuff to do. very sorry about that. I try everything to do it earlier, but the first turn is normaly the difficultiest.
 
Since this whole setup is epic anyways... we should not bother about some days. From my point of view each player should take the time he needs. At least for the first turn.
 
It was the same last game. Subsequent turns will be much faster anyway, since trades/diplomacy/build orders take most of the time, and they will not have to be changed every single turn.

Best Regards,
Ace / Martin
 
Good news: Turn is out to Fanda / Japan

Borgg, I can't wait to find out how many cities have fallen to the hands of Germany in the first turn? Please tell me! :bowdown:
 
Why you scared? GB (or better said all cities on GB) is unreachable for me with my transports in first turn. Don't you know? I just conquered Brussels and Amsterdam. But from my point of view nancy and marseilles will fall next turn. And maybe paris. The latter is very unlikely.

Even brussels was a nightmare, since i had to use tanks only for this attack. Fall of amsterdam did not effect cultural borders enough to attack with infantery. Putting so much tanks to the east significantly slows down the german attack. I can post a screen tonight if you wish.
 
Thanks for telling :)
I wasn't really scare you reaching my cities. But I was really wondering whether you will do something different than expected. Sounds like you haven't.
 
I am leaving for the weekend to play Fallout-like game in reallife - going to play a postapocalyptic LARP :borg:, returning on sunday. But as I am later on schedule, I think it does not mind :)

Hm, as far i can see this, its quite impossible to get even any city of france in first turn. No way. Also GB is quite impossible. The only option a german has to conquer more than brussels and amsterdam is scandinavia. The (important) decisiontree is opening at the beginning from turn2. You just have to prepare in turn 1 what you will do in turn2. So its maybe already obvious, where the journey is going to.... i should stop talking now. ;)

Btw: why it's impossible for hungary to declare war on greece?? When i want to do, its simply written "cant declare war", but no reason. Did you setup any secret option to block this?
 
I think a voting is needed. In the german PBEM a exploit ( or something like that) has ocurd. Its while we play more than one country with one player.

For exemple Great Britain has giftet many fighters, bombers and tanks to his vasall India, and attacked with this units inthe same turn the japanese (me). So u can imagine how surprising it was. Last turn there was nothing. One turn later 10 fighters and 5 bombers drops out of nowhere and clean me from the landscape.

So my question is. Will we allow this (make untis as a present to vasall and move this units in the same turn, when vasall is playing). Me tendency is to no, not allowed, but my main interest is to clear that on the beginning.
 
Never gifted units before, so until you brought this up I never actually realised you could do it with 0 movement points!

Personally I think this is pretty difficult to police, so for that reason alone I would leave as a viable tactic.

Fandazma, I can see why this is a concern but I vote for it to be fair game. (In other words, we should be able to use the strat)
