Infact quite a few players fates have been sealed because they were poor politicians in our campaigns.
 
Sheltonius. I have just thought of a potential game abuse. If someone gets beaten in a war, do you guys tolerate truce breaking? If that someone got already beaten, how is he suposed to defend himself right after losing?

With that -5 stability penalty breaking truce should not be taken lightly. In 2.31c the rebels are quite tough, as they have a martial 7 general and they copy your own morale rating. Also the general martial bonus in a battle is halved now. Rebels are mostly militia, but 40+ militia cohorts can be a problem.
 
So, when? I prefer to play medium-small countries. Is the chat crash bug in MP solved?

It is solved in 2.31c, fortunately. I would still prefer another type of communication (MSN etc.).
 
Which Version?

Shelt: Which version are you going to use: 2.2 (FOJK) or 2.31c (QOHD)?

I say go with the latest and greatest unless there are major problems with it.
 
I agree, if its the 2.31C I will gladly play online! Here are my choices:

1) Carthage;
2) Rome;
3) Macedonia.

Just keep me posted via PM or something, as I may not see there is a new post here. XD Also please include date and time. I would prefer a weekend. XD Although it doesn't have to be. XD I can do homework later. ;)
 
Roster and Start Date

Shelt: Have we reached critical mass for starting tomorrow?

Looking back over the thread, these eight players seemed pretty interested:

Shelt --
Achab --
Boleslaw1000-- Carthage
Camera -- Spanish minor ?
JDMS --
KenG -- Macedonia, Carthage, Armenia
Pax25 --
TheBum -- Rome

And these two might join?
BurningEgo
Te Kenzo

But only a few have definitely committed to Mondays at 7 pm Central (GMT-5), as far as I can tell.

That is Eastern US and Canada right? If so, I can for sure commit to that. Do we have to be very good at the game? I am pretty good, not the best though. XD

Cannot. I cannot attend the game during monday.
 
I can't. Mainly because of time constraints. :(
 
Game Time Correction

I think Shelt wants to start the game at 6 pm Central (GMT-5), which is 7 pm in my timezone (Eastern edt GMT-4, during the summer).

Right: I meant to say 6 pm Central/7 pm Eastern.

And no, you don't have to be a great player. I was just learning Rome when I started in Shelt's MP games, and learned as I went along. I still flub up now and then, and wouldn't mind at all if someone else did too. Particularly if I could take advantage of it!

Hahahaha awesome! Thats 7 PM my time tomorrow. I am so up for that! :) I also would not mind any pointers in the game if I screw up. XD Thank you! :) I look forward to playing!
 
I can play tomorrow! I'm GMT so it will be midnight and beyond so don't find it weird that I'm making ridiculous moves :p Let people chose what they want then, tomorrow I'll chose my country. I'm not a good player so I prefer smaller countries at first. I never played a barbarian country so I think I'll go for it.
 
Well its a bit iffy if i can make it at 7 tmrw I had a conflict with my finals so now ive got one 6-9. i really doubt it would take me even half that but could I persuade everybody to hold off for another hour or half and hour even?

Sorry Im great every monday after this.

Oh and Boleslaw1000 if your gonna be carthage and im gonna be rome(thats what it looked like anyway) and im no expert either so dont worry about getting knocked out early haha.

Hahahaha awesome! Maybe we don't even have to go to war? ;) We maybe can find a way to deal with Sicily.... It would be pretty cool to see a Rome/Carthage alliance.
 
Need More

There are 5 majors(Rome,Carthage,Egypt,SE,Macedonia) to fill up plus at least 2 minors(Pontus,Armenia). So we need more people. It does not seem likely we will be able to start tomorrow. Hopefuly we can have enough people by next Monday.

That may be better. Can we get a list of who is going to play what country thus far?
 
Country List

I have added a country list to my orginal post on the 1st page. I will update it as people join. Once we have nailed down the countries and all the details then I will make an Official Campaign Thread.
