Everyone - during this downtime we have had while Eclipse gets his machine working again, I am glad to say have gotten Imperator Knoedel the ability to play PBEM games again! Since we only did about 2 ancient turns, I discussed with Eclipse and we are going to *relaunch!* to include Imperator Knoedel again. I also am going to include a small advanced start so those early turns arent so boring and we don't feel like we wasted any time. All other settings will be the same as the original launch, with original BTS.
Turn order will be:
Nighthawk
Eclipse
Qlockwork
Knoedel
Hawklord
I will be setting up the game shortly and emailing it off to Eclipse!

Where are we with this one? I sent it to Eclipse and I know hes had computer issues, but he seemed to do turns in other games last night. Did the re-launch make it around and work for everyone?

Error after error after error... we struggle to get Knoedel in, kick it off without him, then get slowed up because of Eclipse's laptop... meanwhile I get Knoedel to work, but we still have to wait for Eclipse and now Knoedel appears to be missing... oh man, if we actually get this moving regularly I will be excited!
However I did read the story updates... awesome job guys. This is just messing around until the game really gets going too!
I wanted to put it out there that just in case its not obvious, my story will be involving time travellers from the future and their adventures into the past, impacting the direction of the Spanish empire, and the world in general. After reading Hawklord's story, it almost seems obvious that "the Evil One" clearly is a time traveller from the future
Anyway, point is - Because of the nature of my story, I can easily weave my stories into all of yours and start interconnecting the world in more ways than the standard civ interaction that we will have in the game. It can be as simple as a time traveller going back and getting attacked by a Hawk and more complex too... eventually our characters and stories are going to need to interact and mesh in some form. I encourage all of you to send PM's and write stories together or even write each others characters into your story (as a bit part) to make it all work together. I know my imagination is always spurned by reading this groups stories and I would gladly have my characters be involved in your awesome stories in some form.
I just wanted to throw that out there, it kinda hit me as I was reading Hawklord's story and the idea of the stories turning into something larger than life because we are writing in combination is truly epic and excites me!
Hawklord - check your PM, I truly do want to write a story about someone from the future getting shocked by Joao's winged friends...

OK I am completely back in business with this PC!!! 
I set it all in the event the laptop didn't work out. I'm currently in Georgia doing what I normally do from Ohio but to me it is really no different.
As for my story (and particularly the restart) becomes a half dead crawl before a city is even founded, granted in reality my city was founded in the game on the first turn but this time the view is a 180 degree aspect of the original. I too hope my story will interact with some or all of you, but before that happens my intention is to tell you how approx. 25 migrants end up as just a single man and woman. But this man and woman will both feel that if they were the last humans on Earth they would not be together. The next installment should be a shocker (I hope)
Please have faith, yes it was a rough start but this will soon pass and we'll find ourself swamped with all we've committed to do (which to me is awesome, I Love having to many turns)

Well there are good news and there are bad news: I never was missing, I just had some Real Life stuff in my way (yay) and when I try to open the WiG-file I get the same error message I had last time. (boo) However I think I might have an idea how we could solve it, last time someone suggested deleting the Costum Assets folder which I did, so maybe not only I but everyone else in this game should do this too and then resend the file.
Cheers.

Are you sure you tried the right save file? The one I did that should have worked was called simply "Gunpowder"... any other ones that say "writing in gunpowder" won't work.
