Here we go....

winterfritz · February 24, 2002, 06:36

Soundwave, I still have Railway in the save you posted. Either you gave it to me again, or it was El Awrence who gave it to me in the first place.

If the latter, can you please play your turn again El? Just don't give me anything for the time being, until I work out what I do and don't want.

Sorry again about the holdup, all.

Dr. Nick · February 24, 2002, 09:12

I can just take my turn and erase all your knowledge of railroad if you like to avoid having to replay turns.

Cyrion · February 24, 2002, 10:47

I just replayed my turn, before notcing Winterfritz post!!

And now all the nice gifts I had received have disappeared...

I don't mind for this turn, but if the "generous gifter" could at his next move give me again Tribal Warfare, Gunpowder and Conscription (as before), I would be really happy!! No Railroad, though!!!

Just in case (I don't know if we follow from here or not...), my save:

The ANZAC · February 24, 2002, 18:26

So do I take the save, or wait?

So no one has to replay their turns, and I still end up without Railroad? You should do that then

Cyrion · February 25, 2002, 05:11

Yes, if it can avoid that we have to replay the turns, I think it's better: just erase railroad for Winterfritz (from the last save before the problem was notified, CASE on the 22.02, not from MY last save: I want to keep the techs I had been gifted... ).

Soundwave · February 25, 2002, 05:21

Lets go!!

WHos go!?

Dr. Nick · February 25, 2002, 07:59

I'll work on it tonight.

Soundwave · February 26, 2002, 23:39

Is this one dead too, if not its El's turn LOL again!

Cyrion · March 5, 2002, 08:23

So El, did you work on the save to erase railway from the mexican knowledge ?? Did you have any problem with it ??

Or am I missing something ?? Is the game over???

Please someone, tell me what's going one (I fear NOTHING is going on...)

Dr. Nick · March 5, 2002, 16:17

Oops, sorry, I'd forgotten about this one.

Whosever turn it is after Cyrion can play.

The ANZAC · March 5, 2002, 18:10

Sank two yankee frigates!

Soundwave · March 5, 2002, 18:13

So whos go is is now??

Case · March 5, 2002, 18:38

From: Comm. Mexican Expedionary Forces
To: French/Spanish Combined HQ Havana

Merida captured *stop* Casualties light *stop*

winterfritz · March 6, 2002, 07:24

El, whatever you did doesn't seem to have worked... I still have Railroad in Case's save.

Sorry all, I guess you're all really sick of this wait... should I just play on (even though I believe I will now lose horribly

)?

Cyrion · March 6, 2002, 08:18

Winterfritz, I think it's better if you don't go on from this save: being crippled from the start would rather spoil the game

So it would be better to play again from the point where the first "unwanted" gifts were made, even if it means delaying the game a bit (anyway it didn't move in a whole week, so...).

BUT: don't forget, whoever was the generous gifter, to give me again what I got the last time, which is (from memory): Nomadism, Chieftain, Tribal Warfare, Gunpowder and Conscription !!!

And, please, don't give me anything except one of those as it would hinder my much needed development out of despotism (though I'm in anarchy now

)

Soundwave · March 6, 2002, 14:55

*so where do you start from??*

Also... Cyrion i gave you all those techs@

Cyrion · March 6, 2002, 17:20

Soundwave: I should have guessed...

Seems you're really getting used to helping me with techs...

I might call you the next time I've got a technical problem at the office

Soundwave · March 6, 2002, 17:37

HAHAHA thanks anytime!

Are we just going to start this again!???

Case · March 6, 2002, 18:36

I may have posted the wrong save

When I sent a diplomat to check on Mexican techs they didn't seem to have RR, so this should do the trick.

Soundwave · March 6, 2002, 18:45

YAY!!!! so whos turn now!!??

winterfritz · March 7, 2002, 07:35

Thanks Case, that save was the right one. Mexico is finally ok to continue

*AE pbem shudders back into life*

winterfritz · March 7, 2002, 07:41

Following the capture of Merida this month, the Mexican President once more called for peace with France and Spain, saying that all three nations could accomplish much more working together rather than fighting.

However, hordes of volunteers continue to flock to join the Presidents new and improved army. Should the French and Spanish foolishly continue their attack, they would doubtless face, not a walkover, but a long and ardous guerilla war in the Mexican mountains.

Soundwave · March 7, 2002, 17:16

I so go for...

Although the British Empire is stricly neutral in this turkey shoot!

Dr. Nick · March 10, 2002, 15:11

A freighter bearing rebel troops sunk in the Gulf of Mexico. Lots of gifts of knowledge sent to Mexico proclaiming friendship between the United States and Mexico.

By Mexican request we have not taught them about the 'iron horse'.

Soundwave · March 10, 2002, 15:43

YAY!! El your back, i thought you were becoming a reclouse... hope not....

Join in other PBEM?

Soundwave · March 12, 2002, 15:25
