Status: offline 		Ralegh, I strongly agree with you as well. Teleporting leads to some real inaccuracies. The real problem is that it can be used as a way to get major forces back to defend a country in short order. If France is mired in Russia they shouldnt be able to surrender to get everything back instantly just because Britain is knocking on Paris' doorstep. I've seen many instances in the game where a country with a powerful army takes it far away from home then a weaker country marches in to the empty country and the weaker country still looses because of the teleport rule allowing a huge army to instantly appear back home again. Especially in situations where multiple countries are at war with each other its just unfair to allow troops to teleport home.

What I'd rather see is that when a surrender happens each country involved automatically has 3-6 monthes to move their troops out of the the other country with no penalties. If they dont move out in the 3-6 month period then I can think of a few options that might work:

1> they have to use "violate neutrality" at that point until they can vacate.
2> Units not removed are destroyed at this point.
3> Units teleport home only after the 3-6 month period expires (this at least gives other countries some warning that troops might be teleporting around).

don't think they will match up, files in the save are different now, so think the next patch will need a fresh start

How do you get that sticky stuff that duct tape leaves behind off of windows? I'm gonna use about three rolls tomorrow morning. Tonight, Turkey shall teach the treacherous Prussians a lesson in obedience.

dude i just spent two weeks deep in the bowels of Eastern Europe and half my time was taken up managing the hordes of hungry POW's who would take up arms at the slightest pretext and wreck my economy

all i kept thinking was when i come back i'll be able to install the new patch and well it's not here so i'm afraid you'll have to get in line behind me

Status: offline 		I don't want the patch until it's finished and it's up to the developers and testers to determine that. Until they do I wouldn't want to pressure them into making a premature decision by saying "I want it now."

Thank you for taking the time to do it right :)

We changed the waste rules; getting the new rules balanced is taking some work. Also one TCP/IP issue has been slow to debug.

Status: offline 		you'll have to work for it, but it can almost be done

there are ways to improve the number of Textile you can get

high Pop does not eat as much food as before

Docks can make you money

Factories are good for you

only hassle, is you/we have to wait for it to get done :) (or is that :( )

This is a wild rumor. These symbols at the end "~(^o^)~" mean something like "don't believe me...this is a wild rumor."

We're testing what I hope will be the final build. We're also waiting on....new music for the detailed combats, which I'm told shall be ready next week.

Have gotten myself all into a Napoleonic lather....ordered Nafziger's books on 1813 campaign from Amazon...reading a Sharpe novel......opened up a couple of OSG board wargames and caressed the maps and counters......CoG v1.2 will be the coup de' main.......
