HiHi
 
Matto, hope you had a good time away; as a Beta tester you may know this, if a Multi-player game is started and say there are only 5 players, can the AI slots be taken up by at a later date?
 
Or even, if a starting player drops out could his Nation be then assigned to a reserve player (would need the orriginal players password to be supplied, this would have to be made a criteria of all orriginal players ie if they need to drop out they must pass on their password)
 
Sorry to lumber you with this but you are likely to be become the 'In-house' expert. [:)]
 
All the Best
Peter

So, WAR is started ... now I will wait for files from you all (martin dot smola at gmail dot com). Than I will merge it, play my part and send to all again ...
Study PBEM caption in manual, how to set Policy, Password etc.

Good luck Sirs !

Answers to Kingmakers questions:
- is unable change from Human to AI ... I think, is possible change from AI to Human, but never tested it. I can ask developers ...
- password is possible reset, if necessary ...

Glad we've all started. Unfortunately I have to go out straight after work and won't be back until late, so might not be able to submit my turn until tomorrow night. Sorry if I'm holding you all up.

In regards to PBEM policies, do you have to set them before you load the PBEM files or set them on your first turn before hitting end turn?

[Franck]

I believe before hitting EoT...


My turn as been sent

During playing your turn ... before hitting end turn button

My turn as been sent

Confirmed ... France and Austria are done !

[lenin]

Got in a bit earlier than I thought. Hope to get the turn done tonight.

One question. In relation to setting a policy, does the x mark indicate that the policy or trade is on or off? I'm assuming it means off.

[Mus]

Believe its just the opposite.  Checking the alliance box means you would accept an alliance offer.  Checking the import whatever resource box means you would accept that trade, etc.

[lenin]

British turn in.

[timurlain]

Prussian turn in.

HiHi
 
Russian orders sent in.
 
Matto, what I was toying with in regard to the player replacement stuff was maybe a list could be set up for folk who want to play in a multi-game and would be willing to take over a Nation if someone dropped out, rather than hang around waiting for a new game quota to fill up.
 
I used to play 'Medieval Diplomacy' some years ago and they had something set up to cover for that.
 
Just a thought.
 
All the Best

Hey,
 
Could we put a list of the countries in order of turn so theres no question who people send their file to next?
 
I got an email saying the Prussian player sent their files to Spain... isnt it supposed to be Austria?
 
Anyways, if anyone knows the order please post a list. 

[lenin]

Everybody should send their files to Spain. The Spanish player then combines them and emails everyone else out the new turn.

[timurlain]

Glad that I got it right

[Matto]

So we need Sweden and Ottomans turn ...

[Mus]

Sorry for the delay guys, when I read the PBEM description for some reason I thought each player did their turn in sequence, otherwise I would have completed it earlier in the day.

So my turn is in now. This will be interesting.

[Matto]

So last one ... Sweden

[Mus]

Sweden has been MIA for a couple days... I hope he hurrys.

Can't turn him into an AI now



Hey France who are you kicking around this early?
