WW2-Europe XXL

[CellKu]

So Nachos will join us for the PBEM? It would be nice to have a few more players!!

 

[aeldrik]

Nachos, do you want to play as the Axis? or anyone else up to the challenge? vlad?

 

[CellKu]

aeldrik, could you load a normal game for Italy (emperor level)? Before I start the PBEM I would like to get a feeling for that civ.
I would have loaded it myself, but you know, my laptop...
Thanks a lot in advance!!

 

[aeldrik]

give me 1.5 hours....

 

[Nachos]

ive only played hot seat. my dad wont change the ******* firewall! what does PBEM stand for?

 

[aeldrik]

an E-Mail multiplayer game.... shouldn't be a problem even with a firewall...

 

[aeldrik]

ok, just uploaded an Italy save files... let me know if it works..
(in the first post...)

 

[Nachos]

ok sure i could play an PBEM!

 

[aeldrik]

allright, so we have
Aeldrik as Allies
Nachos playing the Axis
Palmerston as the Soviets
CellKu as Italy

Anyone wants the US?
please all send me your E-Mail address and I'll start the game....

 

[CellKu]

aeldrik, thanks a lot for the sav!! Downloading it right now.
You have my email, right?
There should be one human player for the U.S.!! Anybody who will sign up???

 

[Nachos]

i could take US if someone else takes the axis, perhaps CellKu if thats okay?

 

[aeldrik]

CellKu has a slow pc for that time, so he'll have to take a small civ...

Anyone else wishing to take the US or up to the challenge of taking the Axis??

Dedin, vlad....?

 

[CellKu]

Yeah, I am sorry I can't take the axis. I tried it but my laptop is much too slow.
aeldrik, what should we do about diplomacy with respect to non-human played civs in the PBEM-game? Will you disable diplomacy (especially alliances and MPPs) with regard to them? Or does the first player gets the chance to trick all other nations into a war against the other human players?
Btw, has anybody else signed up for another civ?? The more the better!!!

 

[Nachos]

i donnu if im good enough to take germany though if no one else wants us id like that

 

[aeldrik]

@CellKu: there is no way of doing that.... I can't remove their ability to form alliances with the Humans without making it also impossible for human players to form alliances.... And the US and Allies should be able to work together....

I think what we should fix as a rule is that no one will bring in the neutral nations into the war (Switzerland, Portugal, Ireland, Spain, ....) since the AI's don't have the ability to form alliances, this should be enough...

Playing the Axis will be the hardest role, since almost everyone will be against them, you can do it Nachos, but I would recommend an experienced player of the scenario...
anyway, let's wait a couple more days, if no one shows up I'll start the game....

 

[Nachos]

i am experienced but not on multiplayer games. please let me be us!(?)

 

[aeldrik]

Nachos: no prob... I was meaning I'd want a player experienced with this scenario to play the Axis, as it will be the hardest CIV to play.... You are off course most wanted to play as the US, or as the Axis if you feel up to the challenge...

 

[Nachos]

us is just fine

 

[CellKu]

Perhaps, aeldrik, nobody dares to have you as an opponent and (!) be the one who has the hardest task with the axis.
As you are by far the most experienced of all of us with regard to that scenario, it might be easier perhaps to find someone to play as the UK when you are playing the axis than to find someone to play as the axis when you are playing the UK.
Well, it's just a thought!

 

[CellKu]

Btw, Nachos, about your footer ("shame-award"): would you vote for someone who lies to you just to get reelected? - I don't think that someone who does that deserves a lot of trust (and votes).
Sorry, it's totally off-topic and I don't want to start a discussion on that, but I couldn't help saying something about it.
