ORIGINAL: iamspamus You've been trying to hash it out with Mardonius for a while now. These optional rules are NOT non-Eia. I also have played since...hmmm, jeez about 1989 or so (a recent hiatus that the PC game has now filled) and we ALWAYS played with some optionals. ALWAYS. Every game that I played or saw played (all across LA, Georgia and South Carolina, via snail mail and via the internet) has played with some optionals or additional rules. So, Marshall, keep up with fixing the bugs. Work on AI and the interface. Scenarios and other campaigns are great. But, as time permits, please, think about some options, that people can choose to use or not to use at their discretion. Rock on Mardonius!!! quote:
ORIGINAL: Mardonius Bresh: As I ruminate over your comments, I can't but help to think one of three things is happening here: (1) I failed to make my point to you that the options that I am advocating are optional and would not in any way detract from persons who want to play fundamentalistly pure Empires in Arms, as in the board game, with no house rules; or (2) You are somehow not clearly communicating a reasonable difference in opinion and I am indeed overlooking some draw back to options being done when other improvements are, temporarily, at a standstill; or (3) You are being argumentative for the sake of the last word or similar cussedness. Please help me understand if I am somehow missing some subtlety or am just not seeing your plain-as-day logic. Differing opinions are allowed. best, Mardonius Options from the non standard rulebook, has to be lower priority than any from the EIA rulebook. I do have a right to have my own opinion and like i write Personally and when i dislike it I can raise my voice. I dont like the option to change morale for minors(beside Hanover/Portugal as of the rule, or Ottoman Empire). This never happend in the real world. Beeing able to change corps sizes, number of depots, number of Fleets and improve fortifications. These are not options i never liked. We are still miles from the standard EIA. Beside you 2 i havent meet anyone using them.. I have nothing against Mardonius, but I can say I dont agree on his wishes, when I feel alot of the game is still missing. If you been following other threads, i been saying the same thing in other idea threats. Witch in general was the message fix EIA rules first, before adding new options. Regards Bresh
