OMG....there are not a lot of games like Forge of Freedom with all their option levels.<br/>
<br/>
AND, it's ...

Hey, I'm heading up to Alaska on JUNE 12TH.....I am hoping to have it in my hands by then?...hint, hint.

<t> I watched one tutorial and tried to read the manual, but the manual to me is a bit hard to read...so I just jumped in, played around for an hour and then went back to the manual and it made a lot more sense. One thing I love are the NATO symbols....those little unit icon just clutter the map up ...

Well, I just got Civ 4 and AGW so I'm busy myself for awhile.

Are any of you guys still playing other PBEM games? I'd love to try again with those of us who have been waiting for quite awhile. Of course, maybe the next patch will fix the TCP/IP and we can play some games that way.....

Feels like a wargame in the Napolean era to me. I don't even think about Napolean playing this. But, I've yet to play as France! And, without these thoughts, its still a very good game.

<t> I've been a wargamer for years. I even bought Panthers in the Shadows just for the manual. I purchased two or three board wargames and dreamed about playing those amazingly detailed games but never had any friends who were into that.<br/>
<br/>
I personally have never understood the allure of ...

I did turn 23 early last week and sent turn 24 off (its in my sent box) but I'll send it off again...

Turn 20 to England....Turkey is slooooooowly moving toward the positive.[:'(]

Dont look...I don't

nope.

<t> It must be those damn French....they have protectorates surrounding Tuscany and somehow they suffocate the province into submission.<br/>
<br/>
I loaded up 15 again and the province is active. I tried to look into the province to see if anything weird was happening...nope. Turn 14 had the same ...

Yes, I clicked on the Tuscany province and clicked on the Florence city and it seems fine.

I just sent the re-done turn to nukkxx.

I just pulled up my last game here at work and Florence is still there with one militia in it....should I replay and resave and send that off to Nukkxx??

Yes, it would be nice to get these games working..I would LOVE to play some TCP/IP and 9pm east, 6pm west is perfect for me any night of the week..hope they get it working correctly.

Sorry, I played my last two turns at work and am at home now for the weekend...I don't have the office key....

<t> OMG....the game is not a work in progress...ITS GOOD AS IT IS!<br/>
<br/>
I understand people in this day and age waiting for patches because so many games first come out in a state of chaos....<br/>
<br/>
...but this one is very, very good....RIGHT NOW.<br/>
<br/>
They are going to tweak ...

<t> OMG>>>>>> Turkey is done. I guess I made the mistake of forgetting to play around with the national policy options seeing as how my 2nd in charge surrendered to France and accepted harsh terms which have destroyed my glory and pissed off my populace. If I wasn't the leader, I'd stage a coup and ...

Turn 14 off to England....things are getting interesting.

<t> The learning curve isnt too bad....I haven't read all the manual and I get by in my games just letting the economy take care of itself (adjust a few things)....I never use the advisors either. I was somewhat lost when I started but it didnt take long just playing slowly and trying different ...
