I've just downloaded your 1655.scn and there are some non-working wavs.
The problem is that some of then are 11Mhz/8bits/Mono and they should be 22Mhz/8bit/Mono. I can easily fix them if you want.

This thread is getting confusing. Henrik, why don't you set up a seperate thread for your scenario? It would simplify my understanding of what is going on.

In Danish Phase, Imperials and Danish was in war and this is the reason of turn off the negotiation.

I haven't found any problems yet, that is why I haven't sent you anything since my early comments. I have played ten turns, and France is at peace. I feel kind of silly, because I couldn't understand why trying to take some independent cities would start a war with Spain, till I remembered that you put Spanish units in some cities! Right now, I'm building France's infrastructure, through trade routes and the building of workshops and other resource producing improvements. I have landed an army in Britain, and will annex it for France soon.

It is indeed Italy that I was after. But I did not provoke a war over those cities. Instead, I have taken the North Eastern Italian cities, while continuing to prepare France for major war. I think that taking Britain has advantages, the main being it can produce units without being harrased by the other powers. Against fortresses, only seige artillery seems to have any effect, so I will produce huge amounts of them, and they will be protected by Horseman and Pikeman. The updated version has been downloaded, and will be implemented when next I play.

I just installed the latest update, and the batch file thing works now. The Merchant ship values are now zero attack, so that is also fixed. Spain's attitude towards France changed from friendly to all out war, so I can now campaign against a real power. The events for others seem to be working fine, but I have yet to see one for France (Game date is early 1622). A note: I don't review the events file before I test, because I want to be surprised by events, if any. After I complete a scenario I am testing, I look to see if the events malfunctioned in a scenario.

I know but really French didn´t take part in the war until the last phases, only there is 3 (I believe) and 2 are provoked if Spanish conquer a pair of cities.

I just started playing the update and everything ran fine untill 1620 when I got the message:
Spain and France forms an alliance against the Protestants...
That is something we would like to avoid, right?
I propose making spain and France have Vendettas against eachother (this would be historical).
Oh and making the fortress a domain 3 unit would see to it that it cant be shiped around.

I think( and hope ) that you will have more problems when the swedish player enters the war.
Oh and Jesús i discovered some more typos:
Västeras should be Västerĺs (Västeras would mean "The western corpse" in swedish, so that one you might want to change).

Phase 1 - Playing Danish:
-I had to restore the order in Brunswick, this Germans had to know who's the boss now.
-With the help of Commercial Docks I'll be able to improve my Army.
-As I suspected I was sneak attacked by Swedish, They didn't take me by surprise. One of my convincing priest duly taught the people of Stralsund who's to be honoured as their King ME!.
-They did it again, someone should taught them a lesson! the shape of my economy allowed me to afford the costs to explain to the population in Kalmar that they weren't in Sweden any longer. In the meanwhile I keep my army increasing and unharmed in Northern Germany (just in case).
-French are always in War, Imperials, Spanish and now Swedish (they haven't built yet the Moulin Rouge .
-Independents attacked one of my Caravans to Kiev, excuse more than enough to attack Kolberg.
-While Polish & Swedish are having fun together I took advantage to fortify/reinforce/evangelize Stralsund and Kolberg.
-Polish realized there was not Coastal frotress in Aarhus and attacked me by surprise. Once again I used diplomatic means to conquest a city (Danzig). I had an Army in Kolberg, but my units are too valuable to be sacrified. I've surrounded Stettin (Swedish), now I only have to wait to be
attacked by them.
-As soon as Franco-Swedish War ended my neibourghs sneak attacked me again (these guys will never learn) guess what... yes, Stettin bribed . Now I feel quite comfortable in N/Germany as to take a look to Scandinavia where my Norway cities are now ready to massively produce units.
-Ha! Now that Swedish are getting into troubles with Polish, come to me asking for help. What they don't know is that I'm gonna exterminate them both, at least if Northern Germany keeps quite.

Waku, I would really like to play this scenario multiplayer whit you (and I wont bribed into submission as easily).
I think it would be really interesting...
Infact as I have stated before I think that all nations in the war being played by humans in a gigantic multiplayer effort would be pretty cool (although I realize that this is probably not possible since not everyone has the time or the connection for such an effort ).

Making a fortress a domain 3 (not selectable in the editor where 0-2 is all you can chose from) will make it a ground unit that can fly, meaning that if you make a fortress whit 0 movement domain 3 the only effects will be that it cant be moved by boat.
And if you take away alpine flag from favourites then remove it from Jesuites as well, please...

I'm taking too much advantage of diplomacy in my game, I think it should be changed somehow, but I don't really know which would be the best way (more expensive units, palaces, democracy, ...)

On the other hand I think danish/swedish aren't very focused to German affairs, at least not as much as they should be imho. What about an scandinavian alliance? perhaps it's not historically accurate (not sure, Henrik help! ) but this would probably make them forget their rivalities and pay a bit more attention to Germany/Poland. I also think danish map should reveal the whole German Empire.

Yes, I think so, in Danish Player don´t mind a lot, because they were defeated very quickly and they hadn´t no more importance in German wars, but in Swedish, it is more important problem, but I hope that they will involve more with the event of Swedish phase. Does this happend????
Other problem are the Spanish who don´t usually attack Nehterlands and develop their power in mediteranean sea.
Any ideas to solve it???
What about the Catalonian, Portuguese revolutions?do they happend correctly?
What about the idea of making the defence units stronger?

I not so sure about this. As it is, only siege artillery seem to be able to survive an attack against a fortress in a city. As it is, I am forced to build many siege guns. Fr. Musketeers are useless. Defense is low, and attack is not enough to justify building any. I think that skilled players wouldn't bother building this type of unit at all.

I thought so about my musketeers too at first.
But then I realized that when they are veterans they are good as units used for attacking out of cities and they usually survive a winning better than a dragoon (if its a though fight).
I still wouldn't change the defence values if I where you Jesús...

Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

Phase 2 playing Danish
-Here Polish seem to have taken the baton from Swedish as they have expanded a lot through russia/ucraina. I responded their agression by capturing Königsberg & Libau in combined amphibious assaults (Dragons and Ind Musketeers).
-I've founded Holstebro in N/Jutland.
-Imperials activated their alliance w/Spanish. Spain declares war on me, but after a friendly negotiation with the Cardinal-Infans they signed peace to me.
-Swedish attacked me, I had to bribe Jönköping and invade Dagö (against my will ).
-Imperials attacked Minden from Münster and Willstein attacked Magdeburg, although I still hold those cities my army suffered lots of casualties (My Baltic plans will have to wait). Polish have recovered Libau (this city wasn't connected by road to Königsberg ).
-I've finally managed to destroy Münster fortifications, the assault was even easier.
-Cologne wasn't so easy, some casualties.
-Something funny: Spanish & Polish signed a secret alliance against Protestant, two turns later Spain declares war to Polish
-Swedish sneak attacked I occuped Aabo.
-Mainz! Bloody assault indeed!
-Spanish & Polish did again the funny thing
-Trier was easier than Mainz
