Nippon Oct-1993


Nippon has a big trouble, our territory is divided in four non contiguous areas, and a fifht area can be easily cut off from our main territory. A good share of our mostimportant resources are situated in areas that cannot be defended against a determined enemy. Our two main territories also have a long and vulnerable borders, so, we need friends, or, at least, some neutral countries in our borders. In these first weeks, diplomats are more important than soldiers, but we are mobilizing our reserves anyway.We have the technology to build a powerful navy, but the question is to what extent these big ships can save us.

[Twotribes]

Germany Needs Destroyers I have none that I can build till 1935, I could make a deal with Japan.

[Bombur]

You have a large torpedo boat that works more or less as a small destroyer.

[Twotribes]

So is that a no to ally?

[Bombur]

Hmmmm.....I understand....we will make our secret (and not so secret) agreements in the game, we are opened to talks, of course. I was just pointing you have something close to a destroyer.

[Bombur]

Waiting for France.
lordlau1, erne thinks you can play with v2.21 withouth upgrading. Make a test when you get the turn.

The Empire Oct 1933

The British Empire is fairly intact and enjoys a decent amount of resources. There is trouble abound on the map; or potentially so. Das Reich is split into pieces, on both sides of The Empire. British diplomats have sent envoys to closely interested parties and we await news.

Any country has has not yet received a diplomatic envoy should send one to the British government immediately.

[ironduke1955]

The French are happy to open diplomatic channels to the British, the French are surrounded by Italians on all of our land masses, we have sent them overtures but all we have received back is lines of indecipherable code[:D]

Hey, guys....sorry for the delay, but I have tried everything but I keep getting missing graphics...ALOT. I loaded 225a, 225b, I put both and bigmap in the mod folder. I tried to extract the compressed filed via the ATG screen and manually...nothing. I'm at a loss. Sorry for the delay, but trust me, I have tried. Any suggestions?

[ironduke1955]

I went to the VR Designs website VR Designs Scenario bank and downloaded Bomburs latest version then added it via the zip download. That got rid of all the missing jpeg's message's

[ArmouredLion]

i have a steam version could that be an issue?

[Bombur]

No, you need to download the Bombur mod 1.25 in the VR designs file (atzip file). It has the graphics. The 1.25a and 1.25 you see in the folder are just corrections to the at2 file. Install of the atzip you make in the game menu. The executable 2.25b is another thing, it´s an upgrade to the game and has nothing to do with Bombur mod. Bombur mod (and every other mod) works both in steam and non steam versions.

[ArmouredLion]

Never mind, last night I didn't have a coffee in me, now I do and my mind is right...all is well with help from Lau...turn underway.

[ArmouredLion]

Thanks Bombur just read your post thanks...

The Eastern Empire has thrust off the rule of kingly tyranny, and now it seems another civil war is brewing as fringe elements falsely claim that the promises of Marxism are unfulfilled. Due to this internal strife, the Eastern Empire has no desire for enemies abroad as it must deal with its enemies within. The people must be protected from the evils of capitalism and fascism at all costs! As long as no external pressure is put on this internal strife, the Eastern Empire will not have any desires of expansion or an adversarial relationship -- even if diametrically opposing governmental philosophies exist. But, beware: any nations attempt at interference or influence, either logistically or by propaganda, will mark said nation as the eternal enemy of the People.

[ironduke1955]

There have been reports of incidents on the the border with our Italian neighbours, old claims over tracts of land on the border lines between the Republic and Fascist Empire have raised their head, hopefully these claims can settled amicably.
