The Struggle for Europe PBEM
It will be a playtest PBEM as the scenario is not yet finished. Also I deleted all files which are unneccessary in PBEMs in order to reduce the size. So, I don't advise you to play single player games with these files.

Playable nations are:

Axis - Pap
Turkey - Kalmer
Minor Nations - AI
Spain - Soundwave
Allies - ANZAC
Soviet Union - FMK
France - Marko


So, who are up for fight?


The first file:

You are fast!


I don't upload sounds here. Sounds from TSFE1 are good enough and you can get them from here:

Civfanatics downloads

For the Motherland!
Vasily Kleshnikov will come to the aid of his beloved countrymen and once again defend our frontiers against the fascist dogs.
Our cause is just. The enemy will be smashed.

Why dont we wait to see if others want to play. Geez, there is no rush here. I would prefer dealing with seperate people for each nation.

Nations were not listed in moving order, now I corrected it

Actually it is not problem to left some civ for computer. AI is now pretty strong in TSFE, especially in production.

And yes, everybody needs to make sure that they have the latest version of the scenario. There must be a city named Plovdiv in Bulgaria.

If I am not mistaken, the other one is for the single player versions of the game.

Another thread is about looking for playtesters for the single player versions of TSFE2. I need more playtesters very much because I and my few active playtesters are already quite tired.

OK, here is the map for the PBEM:

Can Franco please hold his horses? 'k? Why can you not wait for France and Minor Nations?

Marko, I was of course able to get these 3 multi zips here, but I had some very strange error when updating to 1.95 via yahoo. DLed the 2 zips there and upon trying to open both, I get "invalid Archive" errors and they zips wont open. Do I need to update to 1.95 fist, then lay these multi zips over them?

Thanks.

These Multi zips here are all what you need for playing the PBEM (+ sounds)!

Version 1.95 (and later ones as I progress with the scenario) are only for playtesters. Hold the multiplayer files in separate folder from the full scenario.

I can download and unzip them without problems. Do you have Winzip 7.0?

I'll play as France and lets start the game! Lets the Minor Nations be under AI. They are anyway the weakest nation and unhistorical to play too (combined Sweden, Switzerland, Portugal and Ireland).

Everybody make sure that you have version 1.94 (Readme.txt says the version). So we all are using the same files.

The 48 hours limit for turns is a good idea. If you turn takes longer time for some reason and you don't warn other players then the next person has right to make his turn.

In TSFE the AI is set to produce mostly only the best aircraft and tank types. Therefore the AI takeovers must not damage your production much.

OK, Pap, it's your turn now.

Good luck with operation Weserübung!

Sorry, I am in the middle of my turn.

Axis end the Phoney War!!

In another crushing Blitzkreig, Germany was able to occupy most of Norway and all of Denmark.

Cities taken:
Alborg, Kobenhaven, Oslo, Kristiansand, Stavanger, Bergen, Molde, Trondheim, Nesna, Narvik, and Tromso.

Hitler says that no one will be able to stop Germany now!

The rule is that all negotiations with AI diplomats are prohibited unless you have the player's permission. Just turn them down when they want to speak.

Any treaty is at first agreed between players via e-mails or PM and then signed with AI diplomats.

April, '40
Vasily Kleshnikov spoke today with Comrade Stalin regarding their allies' fights in the west. Stalin agreed with Hitler that something had to be done with Poland. He had watched for years as Germany swept up its neigbors in bloodless campaigns. However, this latest drive against Norway and Denmark make the Comrade uneasy.

"Denmark maybe, for that is in Germany's sphere of influence... but Norway...NORWAY? An invasion of Norway by Germany is an obvious attempt to secure her flanks while preparing to move across France thereby encircling England. Do they think we are unable to see this, Comrade Kleshnikov? I fear that if Germany removes France, and England... there is only one direction left for them to turn... toward us."

he continued...

"I can tell you this Kleshnikov. If Hitler expects us to help him fight either France or England, he's got another thing comming. Allied for mutual defense we are, but we will not take part in their rape of europe!"

"But if they were, say, to share some of their technologies with us, we could possibly be more comfortable with turning a blind eye to these latest events..."

"Full blown War in Europe is not a positive thing. No one will benefit from it except the bourgeoisie arms manufacturers. All-out continental war must be avoided here at all costs. Either this, or have it delayed as long as possible."

Stalin then called for his ambassadors which arrived within moments. It was apparent they had already prepared their notes. It seemed to everyone that the struggle for europe™ had begun...

Turkish foreign minister said in his note addressed to all European governments that Turkey wishes to stay neutral in current war.
Of course we are always glad to listen all proposals from interested parties.

Soundwave left me in charge of his PBEMs while away, so I'll play it. But we need to see whether he'll continue pending the new Princess controversy.

Anzac, could you email that save to me? For some reason (and I do know how to re-name the attatchment) the zip does not unzip for me. I get an 'invalid archive' error. Oddly, I got this error before whilst trying to DL the TSFE updates. I have Winzip 7, so I really dont know what the problem is. It works fine for me when unzipping all kinds of other stuff.
