Thanks Eclipse!
Could be interesting to have these two appear at key times. Maybe we can write in a great wizard who foils our plans if we should fall out with Spain.
Eclipse and I worked out the meeting, I just put my own spin on it. We wanted to plant the seeds of possible future mistrust.

Which two are you talking about?
Hawklord - the Spanish Horde has met a Portugeuse scout... we should have them meet like you did with Eclipse. I'll send you an email in a little bit.

Hawklord - sent you a diplo email. we can turn it into anotehr story for you anytime you want. we should probably resolve the discussion before you finish your turn. I have access to my email all the time so I can respond quickly
The meddling time travellers Anton and presumably Rubin Filaro though you've not had him time travel yet. I got the impression that you were setting them up as adversaries.

Oh yes definitely, they are good guy/bad guy roles which can conveniently be used to direct the spanish empire in either direction as i need them. and thats good to hear you're enjoying it. time travel is definitely a passion of mine

Both of you guys have 2 cities, I feel so backward

Germany also has set its own expansion plans in motion, we don´t know how trustworthy our Russian neighbours are yet, but we can´t risk becoming contained on our peninsula.
Come to think of it, this game would be the perfet opportunity for the suggestion I made some months ago in Earth 18 Civs but not on Earth: Naming landmarks!
Maybe that´d finally bring me my inspiration to finish my first chapter.
Also who is England again? It seems we have made contact.

There are 4 AIs and you just mentioned 2 of them, maybe they are all closer to you since we have not met nor have we met any AIs

Wait what England is an AI? I thought it was a player. Now don´t tell me Willem von Oranje is an AI too!

The human players are yourself as Germany, me as Spain, Eclipse as France and Hawklord as Portugal. The other 4 are AI!
They still are an intrical part of the writing aspect of this game though!

Look below the pic on Post #1
I did not list AIs for the surprise but I will say now that we are all European except Cathrine of Russia,
This map is Fractal and we'll need to settle the "New World" so plan accordingly, I'll assume our starting area is small in contrast, even I have no clue how this world is laid out,
So write when you feel the urge but the mid-stream "Age of Sails" is where this game's Dynamics just start to unfold. Choosing Bronze and Iron units over the ability to Sail and Settle is a fascinating subject, add when to construct Wonders
Use Tech Trading wisely and/or sparingly because Tech Brokering is also enabled, I'm not a huge fan of Yech trading but I figured it would open many passages of Drama, maybe even a Conspiracy (see vid attached to Post #1's Portrait).
Imagine eventually setting sail and making landfall but it's an Island rather than the big continent
Well I wanted to stir a few coals around to get a few sparks, oh and I just had another thought, imagine a Privateer well promoted with Flanking, Visibility and movement, now that sounds like a fun unit
