Sharpe's Marshals -- new game starting

[delatbabel]

As posted in a previous thread, I'm willing to host a game. Need 6 other players. I want to take players who are preferably not in any other game, or at most in one other game.

PM me with your email address and I'll include you on the list. Once I have 6 then I'll get Murat to arbitrate the bids as per his previous offer.

All of these report being in one other game.  I'll hold the remaining two spots open for people who have not signed up for a PBEM game yet, unless I get no replies by mid-day Sunday AEST (GMT + 10) in which case I'll open them up for all.

To solve any arguments before we start, I am adopting this house rule for this game, at least until the first game patch:

- All Major powers who are not at war with each other may not stack their navies in the same sea area (first come first served).
- For the purposes of this house rule a Major (Naval) power is a Major power that possesses more than 10 HS or more than 20 ships total (not including transports); e.i. 6 HS and 15 LS would constitute a Major (Naval) power.
- Major powers who are at war with more than one other Major (Naval) power may never stack or attack with more than 50% of the total number of ships of a given type it has available; i.e. BR has 76 HS and 57 LS so no more than 38 HS and 28 LS should be in a stack.

This is as written by BoerWar for the Corsican Usurper game.  Thanks to all who have reported this bug.

[Murat]

Just a note, you can chose 3d party combat resolution and do the bugged naval off board and input the results if you wish. It's another option we are pondering for CU. 3d party combat let's you chose for each battle if you want to resolve it off board.

I haven't heard anything from all bar 2 of the players for a few days.

Can everyone who is in the game please get their bids in, and indicate here that they are done. I have mine in.

Otherwise I'll call in some reserves, I had about 4 more players wanting to join than I had spots for.

[Murat]

I still need these bids:
 
benza / benza@live.se
mrpharmacist / djelsner@hotmail.com

[delatbabel]

Thanks Murat.

Benza, MrPharmacist, I'll give you 24 hours to get your bids in then I'll open it up to other players to come in.

[dauphan129]

Sorry Del. I had been waiting to see which country I had won [:)] Didn't realize everyone didn't send them right in.

[Murat]

Just awaiting Benza now.

[Romulus68]

Post winning bids and such for us trolls to see whats happening.

[delatbabel]

Benza has pulled out, so if one of the other players who expressed interest can PM me we can get rolling again.

[delatbabel]

Suvorov928 has joined, so we should be up and running.
