American 11-19-03 Game

[Duuk]

We the people of the United States of America... in order to play a less-than-perfect game...

have agreed to a newbie multiplayer game at 9 PM Eastern Time, Wednesday 11 19 03. For those of you who might be learning impaired, this means we'll be playing mere moments after unwrapping the box.

We won't know how to lay rail lines, but we'll figure that out as we go.

Current Players:

Duuk - Austria
Carligula - France



Other Americans are welcome to join. There are 2 rules.

You must be an American who legally acquired the game on 11-19-03. You must be playing the game for the 1st day. (No people that played the pirate version - this is a NO RINGERS match!)

Grand Campaign - V 1.01 if Strategy First publishes it in time.

If I decide I don't, I won't know how to declare war on you anyway! That's the beauty of this game!

Is Canada considered part of the US in this thread or not?

I'd love to join in but not at 9 since I don't get off until 10.

So if anyone wants to push this game back to 11 that would be great! Or, if anyone wants to make a new MP game at 11, we can start a new thread.

In any case, I claim the good ol' USA!

Assuming I can get the game, I probably would want to try Sicily.

 

[jacob-Lundgren]

beta testers allowed?

if so spain i want to try as.

it be a little while till i can get the official version, deer hunting is expensive even if you dont HAVE to pay for anything

or i can join as like portugal or something and mainly try and help out

It's looking 99.9% likely you're the only one who will actually have the game tonight. So... have fun with your SP Spain game!

 

[Duuk]

Well... it looks like the game won't happen tonight due to the incompetence of Strategy Worst.

And from then, I won't have time to play MP again until almost January. Holiday season and I manage a retail electronics (no software sadly store)

for reasons of MP games, sure canada can count as part of the US

but seriusly, ya canada+us=same online gaming arena. theoreticaly speaking. it will be a little while as it appears till any north american mp games can happen though. someone should form a list of us

 

[Aragos]

Absolutely, our loyalist/royalist cousins to the north count, eh!

Now, aboot getting the game... did any of us have any luck?

 

[unmerged(3999)]

Nope, although I got on the gogamer bandwagon and should have it tomorrow in time to avert a one-man riot.

 

[hellfish6]

I'll join when I get the game. Are we all up for the same time on Thursday, if enough of us get the game? EB's telling me I should have it tomorrow.

 

[wildwolf]

According to the EB website right now, it's not due to ship until tomorrow. That means the earliest time possible would be on Friday.

Anyone up for a game starting in the early evening?

 

[unmerged(21896)]

I'm definatly game!

 

[wildwolf]

Going to start a new thread now!
