The Norse have to raid only if you force them. Refuse the most reasonable compromise and they have no choice but to raid. Give them enough settlement to settle and they will. ~;)
If you noticed, there are very few "rebel" settlements in this game. Only 4 and they are all weak and poor. The Norse need to take something from someone or raid someone. Hence, we fear you... :beam:Quote:

I know the last criteria can be problematic. :sweatdrop: But there is that thing called diplomacy ... :inquisitive: or is it called war? I am confused :laugh4:
bump.
How goes it, Cheetah?
Not very well I have to say. Someone sank my fleet with my catapults on it. :clown:

When will such payment occur? :clown:
As soon as the circumstances permit the delivery. ~;)
I just wanted to know if you had a chance to play the save yet. :clown:

BTW, already played it. Just ... :clown: .. will try it today.
Ok, we are approaching the 4 day mark, or double the amount of time granted per turn. I think double the limit is fair for over the holidays. Come 23:00 hours (PST) Norway will have one half of a day to get the save uploaded or provide a name for a sub. If the latter, then the sub will have an additional 24 hours to finish.
Sorry, but I have to draw a line eventually. :sweatdrop:
As I said I have already done the turn. Just cannot upload it from home. Since I was at home in the last 5 days for some reason :clown: I just could not upload it. However, I will do it today.
Sorry for the delay.
As long as you can get it in the next day, that's fine. :yes: But now that Christmas is over, I don't think I can allow any more 4 day turns.
I will get it today.
I wish I could play with you guys :furious3: :furious3: :furious3:
But I'm always too late for a hotseat campaign:furious3: (and I need to know how to play one and dowload the save game....:no: )
Playing a hotseat game is pretty easy, with most of the work being done by the person first setting it up. :yes:
If you'd like, I could set one up for you. We'd need at least a few more players, though. Also, if someone drops out of another hotseat you can take their place.

You'd be surprised, just look how different the current players in the older Multiplayer Grand Campaign game are from the original list.
It's hard to say whether another game will fill up quickly. The current ones did. If most of the people here are in as many games as they want, it could be hard. If some aren't and/or some more players missed out on the last couple, it could be easy. Assuming it's allowed, putting a new game in the Multiplayer thread instead of here might get more people.
Which campaign interests you most? One of the Kingdom's ones, or maybe the regular Grand Campaign?
Kingdoms. Maybe britannia. Dunno how to post a save and load one tho...
There's a sticky thread in the Throne Room showing where you can upload files. Just click on the link in the first post there, hit "browse" to put your save in, and upload. To download a file, his "view" there to see the list, and look for the save you need by name.
https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showthread.php?t=29005
um.. really I cant find the save just 'britannia TW' is that it?
and to download you mean click the save thats posted?
It is up! :2thumbsup:
http://www.totalwar.org/patrons/pbm/Britannia-6-1.rar
Once again, sorry for the delay.
Well, there is no save yet. The game has to be set up first. :clown:
For convenience we generally post the next player's save in the OOC threads for these games.

Regardless, I am out because I refuse to play with someone who refuses to communicate with me through PM's.
Ok, I guess we've lost a player. I'll leave the position open for a few days before turning Scotland into an AI faction.
umm, while I regret PK leaving, I'd be up for Scotland.
I have it
I can play it now but might not be able to upload it until later - I'm in the hotel lobby and I have to go out for a dim sum feast and boat tour of hong kong harbour shortly
sucks to be monkey!
:beam:
Oh, how I pity thee, Phonicsmonkey.
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
Anyway, I would like to welcome deguerra to the game. I can send you stuff on the diplomatic situation via pm later tonight. Of course, you can take the faction in any direction you want now. :yes:
yeh cool. I am fairly up to date with the up-front diplomacy, but any update would be appreciated.
Take the faction in any direction I want ey....MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
Guess whos back?
ok, here it is
http://www.totalwar.org/patrons/pbm/Britannia-6-3.sav
I'd just like to point out that it's 4.45am in hong kong and I've been drinking for three days solid now - never let it be said that the monkey is not committed to the game
:2thumbsup:
Welcome back, Roadkill. You only missed one turn, in which nothing really happened in Wales. The war between the Norse and Ireland, Scotland, and England has solidified a bit. However, with the entry of a new Scottish player, deguerra, I suppose that could change. :yes:
I take it the laptop idea of yours worked out, Phonicsmonkey? :beam:
P.S. deguerra has now been notified via pm of everything he needs to know to play Scotland. :thumbsup:
Dang, I would have taken it if deguerra hadn't.
well I'll keep you in mind as a sub, and/or if I run out of steam, ok?:2thumbsup:
nice!
no worries :D
just like to ask which number Scotland is. Ive downloaded the save and figured out that its currently Wales' turn, but thats about it.
You'll be next. Scotland has turn #4. :yes:Quote:

Since it seems to be working well in the Grand Campaign game I think from here on in we'll pm the next person in line when a save goes up. :yes:

Done, but the forum wont let me post the link again so the next in line is gonna have to ravage through the uploader
hey, I'll definitely pm the next guy in line from now on
but although I haven't taken longer than 24 hrs to play a turn so far, I think it would be challenging for me in some circumstances - can we stick to 48?
I think I've shown my commitment by playing my turn while on holiday in hong kong...
think im the next guy, for future reference, roadkill. will do mine later today
The main reason the turn limit is so short in the other game is that with 17 players, we have to work hard to keep things moving. Since most players here are pretty quick, but at least one would have difficulty with a 24 hour limit, I think we can get by with the old 48 hour one. Since we're pming the next plyer in line, things should go quicker. :yes:
sorry I took a while, Norway (Cheetah) is up:
http://www.totalwar.org/patrons/pbm/Britannia-6-5.rar
I'll PM him as well
I will upload the save today.
http://www.totalwar.org/patrons/pbm/Britannia-7-2.zip
Ireland's up.
wales is next
http://www.totalwar.org/patrons/pbm/Britannia-7-3.zip
by the way, did everyone get sick of using the council / story threads, or is there just nothing to say right now?
I was enjoying them but I won't post again until somebody else does...
:beam: my bad, I haven't even looked at them in ages. I suppose with all-out war declared, theres not that much to say at the moment.
I think the war kind of stopped people from making any more statements.
Save upload, once again my stupid internet won't let me upload link so next person in line is gonna have to ravage it through the uploader. Sorry but I don't really know why it won't let me post it.
Hi roadkill - what browser are you using?
usuing firefox, after I upload the save I hit the "View" button on the uploader screen which takes me to the list of uploaded files
then I find the file I just uploaded, right-click on it and choose "Copy Link Location" (I think in IE the equivalent is "Copy Shortcut")
then I just right click in my post here and paste the link...
sorry if you tried this already, just trying to help out
:2thumbsup:
Here it is. Don't forget to zip the files, we could get in trouble otherwise. :sweatdrop:
http://www.totalwar.org/patrons/pbm/Britannia-7-4.sav
ok, i'll keep in mind that roadkill can't upload, but could you PM me from now on Roadkill? Thanks.
Will get onto it when I get home from work (about 2 hours)
Norway is up.
http://www.totalwar.org/patrons/pbm/Britannia-7-5.rar
Will PM Cheetah.
http://www.totalwar.org/patrons/pbm/Britannia-8-1.rar
England is up.
http://www.totalwar.org/patrons/pbm/Britannia-8-2.zip
Ireland is up.
http://www.totalwar.org/patrons/pbm/Britannia-8-3.zip
wales, get to it
Ok, it's been five days now. I don't want to skip a turn. Is anyone allied with Wales that can sub? As his nearest and largest neighbor I'm not sure it would be proper for me to do it.
I am allied with him but I feel uncomfortable subbing as it would give me a look at his settlements and armies...
I will do it though if the GM wants me to and we can't find a disinterested party to do the job
sorry to double-post but I just had a bright idea - Zim, why don't you check the recruitment thread and pm a couple of the guys from there who said they wanted to play hotseat games?
Ok, I'll see if deguerra can do it, and also check the recruitment thread. I'll pm Roadkill too in case he can get to it before it's subbed.
That's a good idea, checking the recruitment thread. Hopefully someone there doesn't mind just playing one turn.
Worst comes to worst, I can do it.
I'd be happy to sub, just let me know
right. norway is up.
http://www.totalwar.org/patrons/pbm/Britannia-8-5.rar
Will PM Cheetah as well.
Roadkill, I didn't do much, just made some building orders really.
edit: DAMNIT I KEEP FORGETTING THIS. Zim could you please let me know the rules regarding adoption in both this and the grand campaign game? thanks
There aren't any. Adopt as many or few generals as you wish. :yes: A no adoption rule would be almost impossible to enforce and I don't really think it will unbalance the game. Besides, it's not even really an exploit.

I will upload it today.
Good work cheetah, I am glad you are capable enough to keep this war interesting :D
Just as a heads up guys, I will be gone for about 3 weeks in a week. I am going houseboating from next monday til friday. I will be there for the weekend and am them going to visit family in Germany for 2 weeks. As there are so few players in this hotseat I figure that will mean missing a few turns at least, so some sort of long-term sub would be good. Any ideas as to whom?
there's a chap in the hotseat recruitment thread who was interested in getting involved - letting him sub for you would be a good way to blood a new hotseat player
alternatively you could approach somebody in one of the other hotseats and see if they have time to take on a new one for a few weeks
Yeh I was thinking of him as well. May PM him sometime today
Sounds good to me. I was talking to him a bit about the Grand Campaign game, in which Ignoramus may or may not be able to continue (Ignoramus is going to take a shot at seeing if at least the campaign map will play on his family's older computer). I think he'd be a good sub.
If he's not able Boyar's Son has also expressed interest in subbing or playing a hotseat game.
I'd start a new one but I think I have too many already. :clown:
feel free to ask him Zim, otherwise I will contact him sometime this week
