Matto, hope you had a good time away; as a Beta tester you may know this, if a Multi-player game is started and say there are only 5 players, can the AI slots be taken up by at a later date?

Or even, if a starting player drops out could his Nation be then assigned to a reserve player (would need the orriginal players password to be supplied, this would have to be made a criteria of all orriginal players ie if they need to drop out they must pass on their password)

Sorry to lumber you with this but you are likely to be become the 'In-house' expert.

All the Best
Peter

Study PBEM caption in manual, how to set Policy, Password etc.

Good luck Sirs !

Answers to Kingmakers questions:
- is unable change from Human to AI ... I think, is possible change from AI to Human, but never tested it. I can ask developers ...
- password is possible reset, if necessary ...

One question. In relation to setting a policy, does the x mark indicate that the policy or trade is on or off? I'm assuming it means off.

Russian orders sent in.

Matto, what I was toying with in regard to the player replacement stuff was maybe a list could be set up for folk who want to play in a multi-game and would be willing to take over a Nation if someone dropped out, rather than hang around waiting for a new game quota to fill up.

I used to play 'Medieval Diplomacy' some years ago and they had something set up to cover for that.

Just a thought.

All the Best
Peter

Could we put a list of the countries in order of turn so theres no question who people send their file to next?

I got an email saying the Prussian player sent their files to Spain... isnt it supposed to be Austria?

Anyways, if anyone knows the order please post a list.

So my turn is in now. This will be interesting.

While we wait, anyone any idea how the in game 'Chat' thing works, ie can it be made single Nation specific or does everyone get to looksee.

+  what are folks veiws re emailing diplomatic stuff to Nations you want to explain more than the games treaty deffinitions alow; I'm in favour, but not sure if it's considered bad form or something.  It would certainly add an extra dimention to the game, make it more like an expanded 'Medieval diplomacy', anyone here played that?

Thoughts?

All the Best

I wouldn't mind if you want to do is turn until he can tell us what is happening.

Kingmaker I'm all for emailing before deals... Not so much because I think there's not much you can do within the current system. But more because I think some stuff can get stupid (ie even if you set some stuff too export, maybe you'll get SO MANY trade offer in one turn that you'll drop to like +3 of something you wanted to get to +10 instead a turn...) I think the best way to resolve that issue would be to try and get the programmers to modify how PBEM policies work :)


On top of that, I believe it is nice to be able to tell someone who just beated you that if he leaves your territorial intergrity alone you'll happily turn against your old allies to help in out. I think it as the feel of the period alot more not to ask for only land when you beat someone but rather for stuff like enforced alliance and stuff :) Unfortunetely, AI aren't a lot of help so I don't do it in solo play :)

On top of that I offered some treati on the first turn, Having asked to people first might have made sure we didn't all ask for the same treati... It can get confusing to know wich one to sign when you have 5 indentical treaties offered by you and the four others!

Thats my vote.
