I would be reasonably interested in joining. The main fact that appeals to me is that the alliances haven't been formed so there should be a lot more reason for diplomacy and I think this is something that should be encouraged, perhaps even having a diplomacy period during the first turn where everyone gets used to their empire but cannot declare war on the first turn so that there is more time to set up possible alliances.
 
I haven't received any replies so I have decided to give more details concerning the game.

ATTENTION: WE ARE NOW GOING TO USE TGW Div Multiplayer 1.0

The game has several unique rule changes. The most obvious are the addition of various unique units. Included are the German Fokker DR1, the British Sopwith Camel, the French FT17 (Tank), Dreadnoughts, Machine Gunners, Gas Shells, and many, many more!

Prolly the most unique rule change is the addition of several improvements...
The British have ANZAC-Canadian Reinforcements, French have French Colonial Reinforcements, the Germans have Ruhr Factories, and the Russians have Russian Reinforcements...all of which produce their respective nation's infantry ever x number of turns. And the most important impovement is the great wonder called, American War Entry which produce American Infantry to fight for that nation thus representing American Entry into the war.

As far as alliances are concerned, there NOW ARE pre-set alliances at the beginning of the game...

Right now this is how things stack up:

The Nations (Turn order, Nation, Player, e-mail, and Alliance):

1-Itlay--Dazz G, darren.gourley at ntlworld dot com
2-Germany--BKGreatWarnut, brian_klee4 at hotmail dot com, or bmklee at svsu dot edu
3-Russia--Aeon221, e-mail still needed!
4-France--LouLong, mantaray at club-internet dot fr
5-Austria--Dell19, dell19_UG at hotmail dot com
6-Britain--Dazz G, darren.gourley at ntlworld dot com
7-Ottomans--Detlef Richter, Dnaturfoto at aol dot com
8-Neutrals--AI

We could still use one more player. They can choose between Germany or Italy as I will switch to accomadate their preference... The game is filling up fast and I expect it to be starting relatively shortly...

In your post you should give your preferred nation and any questions you have concerning the game which there is a link to in the first post along with your email
 
Yep. At least I am almost certain it will be and also that it would be using patch 1.22
 
It's great to know that there is some growing interest to try out the scenario... Anyways, I guess that I will go with Germany unless someone else requests them... In that case, I will go with the Ottomans...

By the way, this is CV3C v 1.22...
 
I will post my turns ASAP and sorry for the delay in my turn...

BK

-Game sent to Spain
 
You just posted that in the wrong thread didn't you? :)

You confused me for a moment as to how this PBEM could have started but I guess you were talking about the WW2 scenario.
 
I would like to try Germany :)

Edit: Oh dear... the map is indeed much smaller, man... I think I will pass this time, sry
 
If you guys no anyone who would be interested, we could use one more at least, if not more...

Right now it looks like we have 3...unless Random Fan changes his/her mind...
We need at least 4 so we hopefully end up with a 2 vs. 2 plus the AI

Germany-???
Britain-Provolution
France-???
Russia-???
Austria-Dell19
Ottomans-BKGreatWarnut
Italy-???
Balkans-???
 
One more thing, we will have a gentlemen's 2 turn diplomacy time (no war) in which each nation gets a chance to form alliances and mobilize for war.
 
I'm not sure how fun it would be if the game wasn't full of players as the AI's diplomacy isn't exactly great.
 
count me in
 
as russia of course
 
Ok, we are probably going to start soon...

Nations: (and turn number as of 8/17)

Please send your e-mail address and let me know if it is ok to post it

1-Germany-
2-Britain-Provolution
3-France-Detlef Richter
4-Russia-Luk
5-Austria-Dell19
6-Itlay-Delpjero
7-Ottomans-BKGreatWarnut
8-Balkans-

Please send me e-mails ASAP and try to get at least
 
Extremely odd considering that they are the most powerful country in this scenario...

If someone would prefer playing as the Ottomans instead of the Germans, I would gladly change civs...
