Retreating to the attacker's province
when attacker comes via convoy - is that possible?
I know that it's hard to imagine such situation under normal rules, but anyway.

diplomacy scenarios
So, a scenario can simply be lifted from mid/late game of any board (a finished game) You need new victory conditions, so some players now have a goal of achieving a draw, or the weakest ones just need to avoid elimination... meanwhile one/two players might have a solo as their goal...

Please finalise Italian orders in "I've got me a gunboat!-11"
Don't post here if you're a player in this game (gameID=89100), but if you're Italy and happen to read this, please finalise your orders instead of only saving them during each phase. It slows down the pace of the game greatly.

Addition to the rules to make the game more accurate:
Russia should be forced to not make any moves (civil disorder) during the year 1917. Additionally during the builds phase at the end of 1917, if Germany still controls all of its home centres, all territories belonging to Russia apart from St.Petersburg, Moscow, and Sevastopol, transfer ownership to Germany.

Cheating accusation button
It seems to me that there are cheating accusations on forum EVERY DAY. Often times there are more than one per day. This site is not really well set up in terms of people being able to figure out how they are supposed to handle this. Or at least, it's not well enough set up to prevent mulitple cheating accusations in the forum each week.

Why the hell it's in 3-D (why does a period piece on tragedy of the American Dream need 3-D?) and I'm no Leo fan, and I don't see DiCaprio as Gatsby...and Luhrman is not my favorite director, but...all that said...this trailer gives me real hope, looks epic!

@Orathaic - Did you fail history? Hitler was behind WWII which is the mid 20th Century and the game starts in 1901 so it isn't in the 19th century, but the early 20th before Hitler was born.

Hell none of those leaders were leading in 1901 either.

Churchill actually lead a pretty disastrous assault on the Turks, as I recall.

Aye, Churchill (or at least held a lot of influence as he was Secretary of the Navy IIRC) was in command of the Gallipoli campaign.

Krellin, he made a small error, stop being an ass.
spyman (424 D(G))
24 May 12 UTC
He didn"t actually lead the assault but it was his strategy when he was first lord of the Admiralty. It seemed like a good idea on paper, but as we all know it was a disaster because the Turks turned to be much tougher adverseries than they anticipated (plus they made lots of mistakes).
krellin (80 DX)

(Sorry ghug...we all just realized that you were already doing that to yourself without my prompting...well....errr....thawasawkward when I told ghug to go fuck himself and found out he needed help removing the dildo from his ass...)
I still don't understand why Draugnar and krellin get off to pointing out irrelevant errors that were corrected before they said anything.
krellin (80 DX)
24 May 12 UTC
At PE -- I'm sure you have never had a thread open and commented on it without refreshing. Besides which, I was not commenting on something that had already been corrected, assmunch, I was complimenting the Corrector, Abge, and adding to his thoughts. Your are such a fucktard. I'll further my point by now suggesting that you, MR Dillweed, are henceforth and forever more FORBIDDEN from repeating any thought that has already been made.

Now go pull the dildo out of ghug's ass....I think he's now stretched a little too wide for you and neither of you will enjoy yourself any longer...
ghug (5068 D(B))
24 May 12 UTC
@krelin, everyone else was showing respect. Ora just wrote "19th" when he meant "20th," yet you're berating him mercilessly as if he were an imbecile.

I won't even dignify the dildo comments with a response.

Uh no, the Gallipoli attack was dumb on all counts. If there was justice in the world Churchill would have hanged for it.
Draugnar (0 DX)

Well considering he also named the primary leaders of WWII, there was more to his mistake than an inability to count. He clearly doesn't know who were the leaders in WWI.
spyman (424 D(G))

"If there was justice in the world Churchill would have hanged for it."

Why? What was the war crime? Turkey were a legitmate target weren't they?

You are a master of hyperbole Putin :-)
"Well considering he also named the primary leaders of WWII, there was more to his mistake than an inability to count. He clearly doesn't know who were the leaders in WWI."

Or maybe he... you know... was just naming famous leaders of major military powers in Europe, and said the wrong century by mistake.

@krellin - didn't say you did it here, but you do it all the time so I figured I'd throw you in there too

;everyone else was showing respect. Ora just wrote "19th" when he meant "20th," yet you're berating him mercilessly as if he were an imbecile.'

Thanks, but really it is par for course here.

Also, some people start counting at 0 instead of 1...

And lastly, the game may start in 1901, but wWW1 didn't start until 1914, so some flexibility must be given with the dates, and WW2 was basically a continuation of that war... (actually lots of wars in europe were just a continuous tradition of beating the hell out of each other, because there were no external threats (since about the mongols... and the Islamic empires...) And eventually America, but only after WW2.

so yeah, i know they were leader during World war 2, but i also know this game is vaguely historical. It is no surprise that player would choose historical war leaders as their usernames.

Is there someone here who actually disagrees with that underlying point?
