In my game against Markiss I've sent naval units from the Red Sea to the North Atlantic. Because he has captured Egypt

Unfortunately, they have not materialised.

Help! Where have they gone?

Thanks...

Odd. Have the full three turns elapsed since you sent them?

many more than three

Could you send me the Challenge ID number so I could take a look?

Thanks,
Hubert

The id is 305041

Game = 305041.

I've copied this from a thread about diplomacy ....

I've also experienced the AXIS gaining Spain at an exceptionally fast rate. As the UK I invested 3 x 50 mpp to counter the AXIS investment. At worst the AXIS has a 15% chance of some favourable change. 15% roughly equates to SOME change every 6 - 7 turns; the value of the change could be slight (with a chance of a large change). The AXIS gained a change to Spain every 3 turns and the value of the change was never small (eg 15 - 20% swings were common).

The game is against Markiss.

Spain moving to the AXIS significantly changes the balance of the game.

As far as Spain goes, I did have my investment maxed, and I think I got 3 hits over a year, the largest of which was 17%. This left Spain around 80%, with the US about to join, so I thought my chance had passed.

Then I took Cairo, and Spain joined suddenly. I think that extra jump from Egypt falling created the illusion of a diplo hit that didn't really happen. I don't ever recall Spain joining as a result of Egypt falling, but maybe I had never played a match where they were over 80% Axis at the time.

Anyway, I don't have screen shots, but that was my perception of the events.

As I just posted in the other thread, a history of all events will be logged in more detail within the game for quick access and review and this should help to clarify going forward.

Hi KorporalKeith,

I just sent you a PM regarding the naval units.
