Ok, thanks. Will access the original save soon.
Cumans!
Five massive battles on my first turn, this is going to be one hell of a ride.
Adrianopolis and Nicaea fell to the armies of Islam, the Basileos of the Eastern 'Roman Empire' met a nasty end with three of his family members.
Captains Dositheos and Daniel cannot move next turn (they were near Adana, in case their stacks show up with different names now).
I'll post in the diplomacy thread and send some pms maybe tomorrow, Mrs Monkey needs me now..
The might of the Fatamid Caliph is truly formidable, as are the hordes of the Moors and the Kwarezmian Shah!
I'm surprised the Muslim nations did so well under AI management.
Two guys have contacted me to say they'd like to join this game - does anyone object if we add new players? The Rus could probably handle a human player and possibly Poland or Hungary - any objections?
none here, of course, that is the other side of the map from me.
I'm Venice, so I don't have any problems with a Polish or Hungarian player joining :)
The more (far away from me) the merrier!
It's ok, as long as they don't poke their nose into my backyard :D
I am fine for them to join.
They should just keep in mind that I am currently at war with the Rus.
Poland and Hungary are close to me, too. But with those countries I will probably be seeking a peace agreement of some sort or other.
I second that!
Ok guys, Mithridate is going to join the game as Kiev and Gaius Octavius Caesar is joining as Poland. Welcome to the game guys!
I'll enable their factions and fix up their treasuries now and post a new link for Zim to use.
Welcome!
Hello guys, thanks for the invite.
Byzantines up next

(sorry for the double post but the forum didnt allowed me to post links at 0 posts)
The Romans were unwise to anger the Sultan, their destruction of a Moorish army has been avenged.
In other news, Aragon now takes its place as the second faction I have destroyed in as many turns. All would do well to beware, for I have run out of ai factions, and surely one of you shall perish on turn 3!
Well... maybe not,
especially since I am only officially at war with the Romans.
Lithuania up!

Ok, I did my turn. A few smaller skirmishes with the armies from Novgorod. Nothing spectacular so far.
Here is the file for Kiev.

The Cumans have rejected our generous offer of unconditional peace, as a consequence two invading armies have been destroyed, and two Cuman castles are under siege. We shall repeat our offer of peace, but now with punitive terms. The brave general Stephan Byakont fell to a treacherous arrow when occupying hordes of HA for our heavy cavalry to flank, he will not be forgotten and we shall sing of his glorious deeds!
Screens saved just in case.
The TO has been disbanded and is just a couple of FMs which Lithuania can kill off.
So Nigel should play their turn until they are dead so he can hasten their demise.
Teutons played, could not kill them off sadly. Still outside the walls.
sent PM to norway
Same effect here.
I can not move the two "armies" of single FM bodyguards.
When I attack the castle, it says close defeat, before the first arrow is fired - then ends the siege, but I still cannot move them.
Schould be no problem though. I can probably kill them off when my next Lithuania turn comes on.
Attachment 3078
Its because theyre only cavalry and a bug allows you to attack regardless, all you can do is decide if you want them outside the walls waiting, or hiding in the woods. And as you most likely know you cant move them since they have made an action in a hostile zone of control.
A tip to kill them: Get one unit of spears, more if possible outside the walls. Then control the FM, ride them round n round inside the spear formation and they drop like flies :2thumbsup:
Ok.
1. Regarding my illegal recruiting, I think I am ok without disbanding units. I recruited in Norway and Friesland/Flanders. Those bits of Norway which Denmark could have reached (i.e. Oslo), has been taken already. Denmark did not attack Friesland this turn, and I refrained from attacking from Friesland/Flanders so that I could have recruited any of the troops there by next turn anyway.
2. The Danish army besieging Nyköping in Sweden has been defeated (just), and cannot move. They retreated back to their ships.
I think that is everything. Does that sound alright, especially to you Rex? If you've got any issue at all, feel free to raise it with me anytime!
If so, then Khwaz are up: https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/local...id=205&id=9674
That sounds good to me deguerra, except that if Rex has an issue he should raise it with me in private first, like he did before.
Yes, absolutely. I understand why that makes sense. Just saying to keep on raising things with you, and then if need be me. I screwed it up and I want to give him a fair game.
It's ok.

errm, who is playing Genoa?
according to the list on the first page it is:
1. Venice - slysnake
2. Sicily - Myth
3. Denmark - RexLegend
4. Fatimid Caliphate - phonicsmonkey
...
Isn't it Ignoramus? Or am I getting confused with another of the many hotseats I am currently partaking in? >.<
Yes it's ignoramus
I hope I can play my save before weekend starts...
skipped, sorry Igno but the show must go on
Denmark!
Took Uppsala, it was left empty. Fought minor battle with remains of armies of HRE. (Don't worry Poland, I'm not attacking you)
Took also Gröningen with autoresolve. I was too lazy to play massive battles this time.
Fatimids turn.
some error with that link, could you please upload it somewhere else instead?
Cumans are up
Time flies when you're having fun. England up I'll probably be needing maximum time on all my turns for the next month.
Things are a bit busy with work and the holiday. Could I get about a day's extension?
Of course mate, no problem
Bah, worked Thanksgiving and no turkey.
Poland

P.S: Octavius, I would really love it if you could send the link to the save along with ur pm, instead of sending just a reminder.
Lithuania up!

Kiev is up.
Captured my first castle from the AI.
But one of those pesky Teutonic Order family members escaped me with a handful of their body guard units. Hope someone else can finish them off before they get all too annoying.

Teutons up
Terribly sorry im so late with my turn, the notification got lost in a heap of diplomatic role playing chatter...
sent pm to admin since there are no Teutons.
Eidt: Pm sent to Nigel, seems like i missed him with like 5 minutes -.-'
Nigel is controlling the Teutons while he kills them off
Ah, sorry, Mithridate. I just posted here and forgot to send you the PM - my bad.
In any case, I tried to get rid of the Teutons finally, but they are pretty resistant.
There is only 1 Family Member left now, with 6 men as bodyguards, but they are stuck somewhere lesser Poland and cannot move, because they have spent all their movement points. We may yet have to wait another turnd to get them out of the game.
Anyway, I move ahead to Norway:

Hi guys,
I just want to let you know that I will be away from the keyboard during next week Mon - Sat.
Hope I won't miss any crucial events (like the Mongols re-emerging in the market square of my capital city).
Could you please pick a sub to play your turn while you are away and leave them with instructions and your password?
i got that turn done its just that the mongols are getting killed off first
alright venice up
http://depositfiles.com/files/dux2e15sj
When the Mongols turn comes up please send it to Silvershield
here it is
Oh dear... Again my turn probably comes in weekend. Well, thought to let you guys know that I'm away in this weekend (I'm always away) so you can expect little delay. :)
And no, I'm not letting someone to sub me.
Thanks for letting us know and I'm happy to grant you an extension this time if necessary.
However I will not do this every weekend so please think about who can sub you if this happens in future. Otherwise I'll have to start to skip your turn once the 48 hours are up.
Sorry if this seems harsh but in a big game like this it's important to keep things rolling. Even if everyone takes their allotted time and no longer we will only see one turn per month!
Yeah, give me a sec, this turn is hectic for me >.< Will be done in a couple of hours :)
EDIT: Here it is ^^ Attachment 3233
Genoa up.
Bari has been liberated from the oppression of the mad Basileos, and another Roman castle is under siege.
Oh come on...
EDIT: Does Ignoramus even know that he got skipped last time?
I'm not sure he even remembers he is in this game...
Cool it guys, I'll send him a pm
Hello guys,
Sorry about missing my first turn. If you give me another couple of hours I'll get my version of SS fixed and get the save done. Apologies all.
Ig.
When I try downloading the Genoa save, all I get is a page full of scrambled code. :dizzy2:
