Well I am setting up a new game. 1419 Grand Campaign.

Particular Game Twists:

1. European Countries Only. Turkey, North Africa, Muscowy, inclusive.

2. Editable AI.

3. Out of game player deals, with a third party editing save game files to work out the deal. Trade and buy provinces with other human players (I have given this some thought though - this does not include sales of armies (there are many ways to exploit this, such as selling russian infantry to england) - but it can include buying out of game diplomacy. So France can buy Spain's friendship by ceding Rousillon in the savegame-But!-Spain can still stab France in the back once the game resumes.
If we change diplomacy in game, it will have to be done on the basis of something that actually could happen in game (no tearing up old alliances, austria having a royal marriage with turkey, etc). There will be a cost of one diplomat per side.



Settings:
Difficulty: Normal
AI Aggressiveness: Normal
Forced Annexation: On
Fog of War: on
Dynamic Missions: off
Base Victory Points: On

Rules:
1. Max 5 year turn.
2. Max 5 players.
3. 2 days to complete your turn (turn order will be set randomnly by me). If you can't make a turn, the computer plays it for you.
Email the zipped file to all players.
4. NO CHEATING OR EDITING OF SAVE GAMES. NO RELOADING YOUR TURN. NO EXPLOITING GAME LOOPHOLES... Please play fair, its the only way this game is any fun. Including watching your country get ripped apart.


So choose your countries and start editing your AI if you wish to do so!

Edit: Edited AI agressiveness level.


Players.

1. Ludovico - Venice ( racinette@hotmail.com )
2. SoulBlazer - Poland ( gpolander@hotmail.com )
3. tearjn - Muscowy ( ajaxjs@yahoo.com )
4. Waldzwerg - Brandenburg (waldzwerg@gmx.net)

And then it was four. If anyone wants to customize their AI, we can probably start sending them out. I have become somewhat partial to four players (five can be quite a while between turns, especially when you start one round and then finish the other - 40 years), so maybe we will stick with us four. The time it takes for any AI to be sent out should give us a better feel...

Since you have a pretty good feel for this, would you like to start this game Waldzwerg? That way you can make sure the savegame will have all our AIs in it.

Comments? Concerns?
 
Ok thats fine for me..
Turn order for first round (i put me first, the others randomly):
Waldzwerg (Brandenburg)
Soulblazer (Poland)
tearjn (Muscowy)
Ludovico (Venice)

As soon as i will have your ai files i will begin
 
Polish AI sent out to all of you. :)

Poland wishes to extend to Brandenburg a alliance offer -- if possible. You are welcome to invite me into your alliance. We want peace with our neighbors to the west -- as long as Polish claims on Pommeria and Prussia are reconized.

Poland will also be glad to work with Venice to keep Austria nd Hungary -- and the Turks, France, and Spanish, if need be -- in check.

Poland further will extend to Moscow reconization of her claim to all Russian lands in return for allowing Poland and Sweden to have the TO and leaving out close ally Lithunaia alone.

(I realize the human player can only do so much, but I can ask. :D)
