bumpy bump

Darius871 · February 9, 2003, 19:09

Sorry, I'm well aware it's my turn but my net access died and leave it to the University's technicians to sit on the report for a week without doing anything about it. Not bad for government work.

If I nag them and still no one comes by the end of Monday, I'll have to hire a private technician and be out $50.

Either way I'll get all of my 10+ late turns finished within 12 hours of it getting fixed.

Darius871 · February 10, 2003, 20:43

- Naval bombardment destroys a few Turkish divisions in Konigsberg, and more Austrian divisions near Kiel and in Lubeck.

- German marines fresh from the victory in Norway land at Scapa Flow and capture the Royal Navy's headquarters intact. The interrogation of captured Admiralty and intense study of British naval doctrines has allowed us to increase efficiency in German ships (movement rate increased by two).

- Scotland retaken, of course. German ships locate the peasants responsible and plans are being made to dispose of them next year.

- Some more Austrian heavy artillery destroyed, this time outside Frankfurt, but they just keep coming...

Well well well

the alliance system broke down?

war has been decleared?

Germany- Britian- Russia the 'powerful'nations of europe knocked off their high points of power?

..... what is europe coming too?

Civfan · February 11, 2003, 17:50

complete anarchy with Austria on TOP

Civfan · February 11, 2003, 18:36

The Austrian forces are in operations all out europe.

This months code named campaign GivedaBootGerman was well executed. The cities of

Stuttgart
Ulm
Munich
Essen
Amberg
Erfurt

Germany cities are now just to the coast. Threat from Germany neatrualized!

Civfan · February 11, 2003, 18:43

Austrian conquests

Darius871 · February 11, 2003, 19:04

D'oh, France is gray in that picture (and you can feel free to erase the old front lines in Germany).

Civfan · February 12, 2003, 01:35

not sure why france is gray. It was blue!

Maybe its a sign from above.

Anyway, Its about the future. France is going down like Germany!

I like the old front lines. Shows how Austria expanded from a small country to what it is now! A powerful country!

Darius871 · February 12, 2003, 02:35

No not the borders, I mean the smaller gray lines that represented the constantly moving front.

Cyrion · February 13, 2003, 04:33

Sorry, I got delayed by technical problems (which seem to be solved).

I'll try to play tomorrow

Cyrion · February 15, 2003, 13:02

The operations in Africa went on!

It was worth waiting, as the french cities of Rabat, Casablanca and Fez fell this year, thus ending the french presence in Africa!

Now it's time for rebuilding all that has been destroyed in Italy in the past years...

And the save:

The ANZAC · February 15, 2003, 22:47

Valencia taken by Marines. England again recaptured by a peasant army, but it doesn't look like it can be held

The Mediterrenean BEF is currently setting sail for a new location....

The ANZAC · February 15, 2003, 22:48

The save

Prometheus · February 16, 2003, 13:55

Turkish Turn:

On the German Front the Turkish offensive continued steadily with the conquest of Stetting and Danzig. Soon all German presence will be eliminated from the Continent.

With France eliminated from Africa by our Italian friends the Turkish launched an operation to end the French threat. The following cities were taken: Lyons, Dijion, Besancon, Troyes, Orleans, Paris, Arras, Amiens, le Havre, Le Mans, Cherbourg and finally Tours.

With more Turkish troops in France/Spain than French troops and only 12 French cities left, the inevitable is just a matter of years away.

Russian Turn:

Nothing happened.

sas · February 16, 2003, 15:15

killed a couple of Turkish units

Darius871 · February 17, 2003, 22:56

- Scottish Resistance completely annihilated at Scapa Flow.

- The remainder of the Royal Navy's home fleet has been destroyed off Plymouth.

- 3 Turkish units destroyed next to Danzig.

- German troops have evacuated the Low Countries entirely.

Civfan · February 18, 2003, 00:11

As the Germans abandon Germany, Austria makes creeds to protect its new conquest. The dictactor government of Darius871 is nomore. Abound to small parts in Europe, Darius871, leader of the German government hides out in of all countries Britain. Austria believes this irony is the way of humpa, the new Austria religion developed around its great leader Civfan. Civfan is a GOD and the almighty GOD has given Germany a lesson in warfare they will never forget.

As millions of Austrian and Hungarian pillgrims flock to the capital of the world Vienna, which displays the riches of its conquest, news comes from the mighty military press:

Germans leave lowlands, Austria soldiers move in and put up the mighty Austrian flag. Cities now riding the Austrian flag

Amsterdam
Brussels
Liege
Hamburg
Magdeburg

Austrian forces also moved against France this month as the downfall of that country proceeds.

Austria captures

Nancy
Verdun

The bordem alliance seems to have crippled under the might of the world. Plans on borders and territories should soon take place!

Cyrion · February 18, 2003, 17:27

The reconstruction of Italy has begun, but the amount of work to do is frightening...

The military operations have stopped for the moment...

And the save:

Prometheus · February 19, 2003, 00:12

Well Sh*t

Alright guys I have been investigated for cheating I think I know what the problem is, I apologize I made really stupid mistake, here is the file I posted

Prometheus · February 19, 2003, 00:13

And here is the file I meant of post and the one I copied lazy civ from; so I did cheat. I often play the game as breaks in-between reading and have multiple saves. Sorry.

I will accept any judgment you all put forward. I already answered conmcb25 with the explanation on the other questions earlier tonight but as I to looked through my files I found two saves and realized what happened.

Prometheus · February 19, 2003, 00:15

The main difference is sold improvements and rushed units.

Darius871 · February 19, 2003, 00:17

Wait, so if I understand correctly, you posted a file, changed some production orders on it and saved but forgot to post the updated file, and then ran lazyciv from the updated file and not the one on the thread? That's definitely NOT cheating.

Maybe I'm missing something here, could you be more specific? Obviously I can't look into the files since I'm in this game.

The ANZAC · February 19, 2003, 00:27

um, it doesn't sound like cheating, jsut a little mistake of the mouse

Prometheus · February 19, 2003, 00:35

Right, the concern was that I had more heavy artillery in 1919 than I was supposed to have by the 1918 save files that I posted. The save that was meant to be posted I had sold nearly 2000 dollars worth of improvements and rush built more units.

The other concerns dealt with getting them to Russia, which I used a rushed ocean liner and ship chaining to get them to Russia. (to take Kiev and Moscow)

Then the other issue dealt with France how I got in there which I used a freight which is immune to ZOC to get by the Swiss guard and come in on the road leading from Italy to France (38,90) (36,90) to hit Montelimar first. (don’t need heavy artillery for France since they never built Machine gunners)

Your more than welcome to look at my saves, not going to change anything now.

Civfan · February 19, 2003, 00:42

ok, everything sounds ok.

Who started the accustions your cheating?

If no cheating lets continue playing.

I find this game fun and interesting. Its going smoothly and fast. Lets continue then.

Prometheus · February 19, 2003, 00:54

Alright Thanks for the understanding guys, I deleted the old save since I realized no one needed as its on page 36/37 and left the new one in case conmcb25 wanted to compare.

It’s not important who accused me Civ-fan, just wanted to let everyone know what was up and to answer any questions anyone might have. Hopefully this answers any questions. If conmcb25 needs any answers he can pm me or anyone can ask how I did something.

Darius871 · February 19, 2003, 01:00

Everything's fine here too. I must say that if someone did cheat making up this story would get them off, but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.

conmcb25 · February 19, 2003, 01:19

If you look at the original 1919 file and compare it against the 1920 file it looks like something is not right.

Prometeus gave a good explanation. And he answered me promptly and professionally in the PM.

He DID NOT have to post here, but he did. I intended to keep this between the two of us until I heard either a good or a bad explanation.

I heard a good one and he volunteered to let you all know what was going on.

This is on the up and up. No problem here.

Prometeus, make sure to post your CORRECT saves in the future. This will keep mix ups like this from happening again.

Sorry for any inconvienece this may have caused anyone.

Game on!

sas · February 19, 2003, 06:06

Glad that's setted then

Everyone can make mistakes.
