If my hoi2 group flops I would love to be a perm, however I will only know that mid september so if somebody drops out I could try and take over or be somebody's vassal if everythings already divided :p. Any time would be good for me. My conns stable I have never dropped yet. :cool:

I'll make sure to contact you then :)

95% sure someone will quit after 2-3 sessions...that has happened so far in each campaign I played :D

Would it be a really crazy idea to add as a player nation....*drumrolls* Oman?

Yes, yes it would.

They would be totally unable to affect European affairs sa they'd have to sail round the coast of Africa. This leaves them to hypertech...unless you are thinking of having lots of Asian nations (Mughals/China/Japan). They also don't really have the ability to fight the OE even, safe as they are behind terra incognita.

They could become sort of a muslim Portugal if I would generate random leaders for them (including explorers).

heh, like it said bad ideas came to fool heads together.

i thought today to release Bretagne and move all french admirals there :rofl:

Oman can`t hire mercs.
 
Poland or Brandenburg is okay for Daniel :rofl:
 
Well, I'm interested in this campaign. On one condition though - since this is most likely to be the last EU2 MP campaign I will participate in, I might as well have the one (major) nation which I have not seriously played in MP at all, and that is Spain.

lemme guess. ForzaA, Aladar, DanielA, Seen in Iberia, NL and England, so surely no funder :D

I dont take other games situations and tenstion to the next one Tonio. If you promise to be a nice little slav...I mean bitc....I mean friend I might fund you :D
 
i`ve used to see that people almost always form their relations on the previous games, and then applied this relations to the next games :)

Putting situations and tenstion is primitives and used by newbies :p

Of course i can be good beatc and slav if get enough funding for my yearly recruits ;)
 
btw, i have another suggestion for this game, that 5 years truce shouldn`t be broken.
 
List of what the game will be about:

time: Sunday 17:00-22:00 CET
Scenario: WatK 1492, with AGCEEP historical leaders
Random leaders: As tonio proposed. (extra leaders for some countries that miss historical ones + random leaders for all after each session, with increasing stats during the game).

house rules (the exact wording will follow in the game thread).

- Stab hit rule to prevent eternal wars.
- No exploiting on the manpower bug
- No TA between naval nations.
- Slept events: ToT, Spanish Bankruptcy, Polish inflation event
- Inflation will be edited in for owned gold mines at 1575 and 1650. 1% for each 3 mines outside Europe. TP's count too.
- Prussia will be created no matter what.
- After the session ended close to the year 1580, the Netherlands will be released with some cookies.
- Poland will be allowed to stay in Latin tech group if they take the B option in the "The Act of Union-'Rzeczpospolita Polska'" event.
- Everyone who will be on time for the session will get a cookie for the next session. You can choose between 1% deflation, two scaled stategifts or -3 badboy
- No AAR bonuses.
- If you miss the first session without warning, other players get the opportunity to play your country.
- If you get vassalized by a human, you need to cooperate with and protect your overlord.
- General exploits are forbidden

El Greco
smn
Sterkarm
Seen

Aladar
Robertus
King John
EarendilHE
Daniel A.

----

First in waiting list: PJL + everone that signs up beyond this date.


----------------------------------------------------------------------

Next post will explain how the country assignment will work.
 
These countries are up for playing.

  • Austria
  • Bavaria
  • Brandenburg
  • Denmark
  • England
  • France
  • Genoa
  • Ottoman Empire
  • Palatinat
  • Poland
  • Portugal
  • Russia
  • Venice
  • Spain
  • Sweden

Miozozny plays the Netherlands.

The countries will be distributed amongs the players by a bidding system.

------------------------------------------

Each player makes a bid for each nation. Then for each nation the highest bidder will get that nation.

Bids are made by offering a starting inflation value.
The minimum you can bid for a country is 0% inflation. The max is 20% inflation.
You are not allowed to make the same bid for two nations, the difference between bids must at least be 0.1% inflation.

When the bids are made I will first give the nation who have received the highest bid to the one who made that bid.
All of his other bids for other nations will then be removed and I proceed to the highest bid for any nation that is left, and so on.

The inflation cost for the nation you select will be 0.1% more inflation than the 2nd highest bid for that nation.

All bids must be made not later than at 22.00 CEST Thursday evening the 31th of August 2006. (That's the same deadline Iran has :p)

In the case of a tie, I (the GM) will decide.

PM

Do not post your auction bids. PM them to me.


Example of a bid

  • Austria 10%
  • Bavaria 0.2%
  • Brandenburg 5%
  • Denmark 4%
  • England 15%
  • France 14%
  • Ottoman Empire 16%
  • Palatinat 0.1%
  • Poland 3%
  • Portugal 2%
  • Russia 11%
  • Venice 0%
  • Spain 0.4%
  • Sweden 6%

As you can see, I have bid the most for the OE, 16% inflation. If I would win the auction for them, I would start with the inflation value that the second highest bidder would have bid for the OE. (Could be anything from 0% to 15.9%).
I also placed ultra low bids on countries I prefer not to play.

Happy bidding :)

ADDENDUM

If Brandenburg gets annexed, Bavaria or Palatinat will become Prussia in 1700. (depending on who is in the best position. determined by me).
If Austria gets annexed, Bavaria or Palatinat will become Austria (Cores + leaders).

Also, Bavaria and Palatinat will get slightly more manpower + more starting cash in the scenario.
Scenario will be released soon, so you can wait with bidding for that.
 
FAL, i think you better keep two versions of your WATK MP scen - normal one and for this game.
Otherwise if people will use the scen in follow game (without BAV and Palatinat), german MP will be too much.
 
Though im not going to participate, i must say that i like the Polish tech group rule and the Prussia one very very much :).
