WW1 Real Time or PBEM

[Aeon221]

Hey! I just noticed that the game history seems to be biased against the Russians! We demand recognition of our dominance! hahahahahah

You should put in an entry that says

WEEK XXXX
On this week, nothing remotely interesting happened. At all. Period. We were as sad as you are.

hahah

Oh, and I reserve all gloating rights... it was my victory after all, and I dont want to see _someone_ else dissing the brave and honourable Turk because of my dirty tricks.

Germany you should know what to do now. SEND LENIN muahaha.. that would solve the Russian problem for you.

France :

major naval battle in the Adriatic. It could be called a draw if his fleet could not rest in harbor while I am away.

Isolated Strasburg where I killed 1 R Inf and lost 1.

The Austrian navy expected to have to retreat but with some healthy units and a submarine it was decided to make one last strike before disengaging. 3 french ships were sunk for the loss of one destroyer.

Italian roads bombarded.

Thanks for the thorough post. I will have to send a combat engineer and reinforcements this next turn...

And Lenin would help how? Russia would not be ready for a bolshevik revolution yet...they are winning the war and have only experienced minor, very exceptable losses. The bottom line in Russia was that they were defeated during the reds overthrow...

Yes indeed, send us Lenin! When he comes, we are allowed to conscript our people AND change to a better government!

Give unto mezar! ;p

 

[Dell19]

Like BK said the revolution probably wouldn't happen if Russia was winning with minimal casualties... Oh and if you did change to communism then we would have to all agree that means effectively that peace has been signed and Russia will not be involved in combat for the remainder of the game.

They wouldn't have to stop fighting. If memory serves me correctly, Russia fought one more battle after the overthrow of the Tsar. Control of the army was somewhat Republican, that is the soldiers made group decisions and there wasn't any solid leadership which led to a devestating loss. However, the government wasn't under Bolshevik control, but instead was more of an anarchy as seperate factions were vying for power jockeyed for position. Regardless, the promise of the end of a pointless and disastorous war with Germany got the attention of many Russians and the seperate factions used this promise to gain support of the population resulting in Russia's withdrawl from the war. Russia can do what it wants as far as government goes...and they can continue to fight.

The main thing that I am drawing from this scenario and several past scenarios is that scenarios that begin with pre-set alliances and especially pre-set at war alliances aren't really all that much fun because there is no chance for diplomacy which is civ multiplayers' greatest feature. I think I am going to try to create a few scenarios with diplomacy as the center piece.

Thats what I though the idea of this scenario would be although its not necessarily a bad idea having fixed alliances as it might not have been much if an overpowerful alliance had formed especially with so many railroads... I feel that the scenario may have suffered a bit from being too large.

guys is it just me or is the sending files slowing down... according to you guys it used to be as fast as a turn every 2 or 3 days now it takes a week or more.

 

[Dell19]

I does take quite along time just to play a turn though... It would be nice if we could speed up the game but I don't know where it is slowing down.

Dazz G also used to play two turns which went a little faster. He is also the hold up right now. I don't know for sure, but he probably notified you of that by e-mail. If he didn't, I will let you guys know that he wasn't going to be able to play any PBEMs (We are in the ODT:WW2 Pacific PBEM also) for a little while.

Nevertheless, once Dazz G returns, please try to play and send more quickly... It would be nice to get this moving at about a turn every 3 days (2 People per day). Remeber to check e-mail often!!!

[music_theory7]

What the...? And damn it's been a while

 

[Aeon221]

The LAST time someone announced they had the turn was OVER A WEEK ago...this is irksome...

 

[Dell19]

Did you not get the email from Dazz G?

 

[Aeon221]

I get mine from BK...!

 

[Dell19]

I know but Dazz G sent an email to everyone saying that he was delaying the game for a while for personel reasons, apparently he will be playing again today.

 

[Aeon221]

nope... left outta that
