Hi all!

Geez, I finally get back and that very night Civfan is down.

Anyway, I'm glad to see you guys sorted out this mess. Congrats!

Not much to catch up on at Apolyton I suppose.

Thanks!

quote: I´m actually playing another Pre-WW1 PBEM in civfanatics, maybe you can take a look at Germany´s performance in that game, just to have a reference.

Yes, ehrm, I recommend everone take a look at that thread and bask in my glory. Won't be much "German performance" in 1915. Sorry, but it's the first time I've had something to brag about here.

Au revoir!

Forgot to mention something. As many of you know, Scott is in a few other games here (or was, he said he is returning sometime soon). Looking at academia's figures it appears that he really was cheating, and I was wondering whether that should be brought up in his other games.

BTW that reminds me ANZAC, what happened to the Raging Dragon game? Did Apolyton just clear inactive threads too liberally or something? If so I'd still be willing to continue it by starting a new thread using the savegames that are still on our hard drives. Depends on what the others think though.

Scott said that he'd be back in a week, but that was 3 weeks ago...

I'll bump the Raging Dragon thread.

It's starting to look like Soundwave's out, or if he is I kinda think he oughta be (no offense sean, but this is ridiculous). I say give him three more days and then find a new AH player. I volunteer if that would be all right, since I was playing them before.

All right I loaded the turn but academia didn't ctrl-n I think; a bunch of German units moved under the AI. Academia, do you want to repost it ctrl-n'ed or leave as-is considering there is peace anyway?

Cool, now I get to keep the Turks!

You can start playing once academia reposts the turn.

A new emperor emerges in Austria Not much happend this turn. Abit of reorganizing of the frontiers.

For all nations. We wish to hold the balance of power and stability in Europe. All treaties and pacts made previously we still honour.

Good be with us

Long live Austria

Guys, before going on with this game, i´d like to propose a ban on engineers.
You see, i came from the pre-ww1 history in civfanatics (like Darius) and we faced the following situation:
The capacity of engineers to build railroads + the use of cavalry, artillery + the unlimited movement; lead us to outstanding advances. For example: In one turn Russia conquered 3/4 of Germany, and in the following turn, 4/5 of France
After a couple of turns, Italy (using the same tactics) captured Moscow

Obviously, this is unrealistic. The first blow of any nation will be decisive.
So, i propose to cancel, eliminate the railway ability of the engineers.
Otherwise, this game will follow the same path...

how about change the rules.

in the IMperialism 1970 the railroads only have a movement of 6 movements. This could fix this problem of the railroads. Limit their free range.

OK for limiting the movement of railway, but a BIG NO to suppressing Engineers: Italy is not as developed as some other countries, and I simply don't want to play a country that is condemned to stay that way...

No Engineers?

LEAPIN' LENIN ON A POGO STICK!

Russia will never agree to this. Limiting railroad movement perhaps, but I am not in favor of it. If I am alone in this matter I will consent to this alternative, however.

Sorry guys, you missunderstood me. By "ban on engineers" i tried to say a ban in their ability to build railways
Anyway, Civfan´s proposal about limiting the movement should be the best option

Again, I'd rather not, but I'm not gonna fight you all if you guys want to do it. It seems resonable enough, but I just have a little more "space" then you all for my cities.
