My stupid ISP has changed my IP and at the moment I can't post at Apolyton. I guess I have to drop from the History PBEM aswell. Could you post the sad news? I'm really sorry.

Well, I hope someone else said that cuz then I can do Russia which means I can stay. Should I do the Russian turn, assuming Soundwave can make it on Friday?

Soundwave · May 21, 2002, 00:12

Grrrr... I'm really p***** off at that!!

Darius871 · May 21, 2002, 00:14

Are you for real? Someone else wrote that? Sas, are you sure soundwave sent that?

sas · May 21, 2002, 01:25

oh no! damn.... i'm so sorry Soundwave!!!

The message was from Dream Deceiver.

Darius871 · May 21, 2002, 01:28

Phew.

I guess I'll do the Russians and AH until Soundwave's back, and then just Russia, if that's all right with all of you. I'm also guessing that you wouldn't mind an AI Ottoman Empire?

sas · May 21, 2002, 16:32

Actually, I would like every nation to be human controlled.

Make your move darius

Soundwave · May 21, 2002, 20:54

Well, why doesn't someone esle take the Ottomans, like Cyrion, he has had alot of experience with them, lol!

Also.. will be back soon, just gotta get all this stuff ready!

Darius871 · May 21, 2002, 20:56

Should I wait on that Russian turn in case someone wants the Turks?

Soundwave · May 21, 2002, 21:21

Just go ahead and do it i guess, or get yourself to do it... i duno!

-:PM waiting for you to Darius

Darius871 · May 21, 2002, 23:37

I did the Ottoman and Russian turns just so that whoever takes over the Turks doesn't have to put up with AI stupidities. No news on either turn, except for production changes, and me scratching my head at what my predecessors were up to.

Has there been some sort of agreement guaranteeing a neutral Sweden? I was shocked to see that it is still neutral, and I would love to take it if it's neutrality wasn't protected.

sas · May 22, 2002, 04:28

France continues it's effort to boost the economy and production capabilities.

After completing its operation in Spain, The 2'nd French Army have been pulled back to its base of operations.

Soundwave · May 22, 2002, 20:33

No... go get Sweeden please...

The ANZAC · May 22, 2002, 21:27

France: need confirmation of taking that city you secured for the UK in Spain. How shall we exchange control of it?

France onfirmes that the city is indeed UK property. If you can invade the city we make peace afterwards. If not we need to come up with some other way.

Please send that to me via email at sfluhr@indiana.edu

My connection won't let me download it for some reason. Thanks.

If you guys were serious about this I put MGE back on machine. Let me know what is up.

Of course we were serious!!! Who do you think we are???

Don't forget the patch (needed if you at some point need to "trade" online) and warm your computer up!!

And to know the play order, just look on the first page of the thread: you play just after the Ottoman Empire! That should be Darius, if I'm not mistaken...

Jacobite1688 · May 24, 2002, 10:00

The patch? Point me to it. I used MGE for the very first time last night.

Cyrion · May 24, 2002, 11:03

You'll find it on this page:

http://www.civfanatics.com/civ2downloads.shtml

It's near the bottom and called "Multiplayer Gold Edition: v1.3 US ".

Once again a reference to Civfanatics!!! Sorry sorry sorry

Actually, you don't need it to play the pbem itself, but I've been told that 99% (or even more now that I joined the crowd

) of the people playing multiplayer use it!

So, if once during the game you need to play online with someone else (to trade techs, or cities, or whatever) and his game is patched (high probability), you need the patch for compatibility reasons!

So, once again, you don't need it now, but in case of online trading, check with the other player before whether he uses the patch, and if yes... just patch your game!!

Darius871 · May 24, 2002, 12:25

Yes, he's got the russians, I've got the Turks.

Jacobite1688 · May 24, 2002, 19:35

All right, I am loaded, patched, upgraded and ready to take Sweeden!

Lets's get goin' again.

sas · May 25, 2002, 15:40

Scott ?

sas · May 26, 2002, 08:08

Can we please kick Scott out of this game and get a new player ?

He's not an active enough player to participate in a PBEM game.
I emailed him 3 days ago, telling him to make his move.

What is really annoying it the fact that his last posting in Apolyton Forum was 24-05-2002 17:52. 2 days ago, meanig he's active in the forum but not in the game.

Scott F · May 26, 2002, 16:08

I have been conversing with the new Russian player. Diplomacy is difficult when internet access is limited and players change with each round of the game.

Darius871 · May 26, 2002, 16:39

No news except a trade route established in Liege, and the Austrian Navy's further advance to retrieve their troops that once garrisoned Libya.

Cyrion · May 27, 2002, 15:00

Some freight delivered, some more built...

And the railway network being developped...

And the save:

The ANZAC · May 27, 2002, 20:45

Spain secured.

Jacobite1688 · May 28, 2002, 04:48

From St. Petersburg, a statement was issued:
By order of, by the Grace of GOD, His Most Excellent Imperial Majesty, Nicholas II, Czar of Holy Russia, Defender of the Orthodox Faith and Protector of the Slavonic Peoples of Europe, I, Count Jacobite, accept my appointment as head of the Duma. The Emperor is a simple, honest and pius Soverign, but the civil unrest which led to the creation of Mother Russia's first Duma and our late tragic war with the Japanese has soured His Most Excellent Imperial Majesty on the international duties of Empire. I have spoken with him at length on this matter and, after much thought,

Holy Russia WILL, as of this moment, return to Her seat in the Leauge of Nations.

His Most Excellent Imperial Majesty would like to see more clear of a mandate for the Leauge and perhaps even a written constitution. Mother Russia will take a leading role in these activites. That having been said, the Warsaw Pact that was announced by the late administration is a protective alliance between Holy Russia and representatives of the peoples of Eastern Europe. Members as of this time include:

-The Empire of Russia, including Finland, Poland, Bessarabia, Kuban and Armenia.

-Poles living in Hapsburg and Hohenzollern dominions.

-Czechs, Moravians and Slovaks living in the same.

-Wends in the German Empire .

-Slovenes, Serbs and Croats living in the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

-All those adhering to the Orthodox Faith of ST. CONSTANTINE THE GREAT who reside in the Austro-Hungarian, the British or the Ottoman Empires.

This statement is NOT to be taken as a territorial claim by the Empire of Russia of any kind. The Warsaw Pact exists soley to foster the Pan-Slavonic movement and to insure religious freedom for members of the Orthodox Church. Holy Russia's return to the Leauge of Nations will hopefully demonstrate our desire for peaceful solutions to international problems. In the most Christian name of The Czar, I accept the German proposal for the renunciation of war. However, His Most Excellent Imperial Majesty will only sign such a document after the other six powers have agreed to it. Russia has sworn in the Warsaw Pact to protect many peoples and will not, no - cannot - forgo those promises if Her children are faced with the spectre of violence from their own rulers or a foreign power.

The late success in Spain proves diplomacy can, indeed, must work. Europe can not stand another war for it would be the bloodiest in the history of the world. That touchs on the purpose of the Warsaw Pact. While peace reigns, Mother Russia will be a friend and leader to all Her brothers in Europe. Yet, if any peoples of the Warsaw Pact are brought into harm's way by Turk or Western leaders, our GOD will place HIS terrible, swift sword in the hands of the undefeatable Czar. Western nations, do not forget the lesson of Lake Peipus.

God Bless You All,
GOD SAVE THE CZAR!

Count Jacobite
