wales is up
I can't believe we're on turn 20!
http://www.totalwar.org/patrons/pbm/Britannia-20-3.zip
Turn 20 : If I get over this one, I will count myself lucky...
There we go, sorry for the slight delay.

Still alive and kicking as far as I can tell:

Save for England :

And won't be kicking long.... with something like four stacks of troops bearing down on me...:smash:
Save for Ireland.

Norse are up:

Announcements in the Council thread
Is it even necessary I play my turn ?
:clown:
bump....erm, yes it is...
Sorry for the delay... I thought I wa out of this one...
Wallace couldn't have come at a worst time and location :furious3:
http://www.totalwar.org/patrons/pbm/Britannia-22-1.rar
Countdown started... Ejection sequence begun...
Yeah Tristan. I'd apologise, but it was beyond my control. Not that I would have put him somewhere else :P
No need to apologize... As you siad, nothing you could have done about it...
It will just mean a quicker death for Norway...
Should have my turn up soon, just waiting on a reply to a pm. :beam:
I'll be away from about five hours time until about 72 hours time - if you get the turn up soon I can play both Ireland and Wales before I go - otherwise deguerra will have to sub, or we'll have to wait
All yours, phonicsmonkey.

Scotland is up
http://www.totalwar.org/patrons/pbm/Britannia-22-4.zip
Norse are up:
Yes, still kicking Tristan. Hopefully not too much longer :P
http://www.totalwar.org/patrons/pbm/Britannia-22-5.rar
Never surrender
http://www.totalwar.org/patrons/pbm/Britannia-23-1.rar
Ireland's up. Sorry to have taken so long, especially for such a noneventful turn.
http://www.totalwar.org/patrons/pbm/Britannia-23-2.zip
Wales is up - I think barca is back as I got a pm from him earlier, but I'll sub the welsh turn tomorrow if not...
http://www.totalwar.org/patrons/pbm/Britannia-23-3.zip
I won't be back until Saturday, but I have access to a computer with internet. It doesn't, however, have the game installed. So I won't be able to play for the remainder of the week. If phonics would be so kind and keep subbing for me, that would be most appreciated.
I will sub your turn tonight barca
bonnie scotland is up
http://www.totalwar.org/patrons/pbm/Britannia-23-4.zip
I have to hand it to you, Tristan, you know your autocalc. Too bloody well for my liking. One day, when we are no longer fighting one another, you will have to teach me :D
http://www.totalwar.org/patrons/pbm/Britannia-23-5.rar
But even being the King of auto-calc cannot help when evreyone sides against you...

Save for England
http://www.totalwar.org/patrons/pbm/Britannia-24-1.rar
Was nice playing although I wouldn't have done it like Cheetah...
If you play it once again, I'll take Norway again just to see what it is possible to do with it...
I must say that you put up a harder fight than anyone could have expected. You truly went down fighting, and you deserve alot of credit for your efforts in this hotseat !:applause:
My pleasure, kind sir... :bow:
yes, very well played Tristan, I commend you for your fighting spirit
and thanks for stepping in and taking over Norway in a bad spot
here, have a balloon :balloon2:
Indeed, Tristan, now that it's (finally) over, let me also say thankyou very much for making this a whole lot more interesting, and much much more challenging. I thought I had victory in the bag when I handed over to barcamartin, but then first Cheetah and finally you came up with such brilliance that it took a whole lot longer (and leaves bonnie Scotland minus two kings, and in shambles). But if I had to do it again, I would, because it was an exhilarating ride!
Ireland's up!

There must be some badger- or boar-blood in me :inquisitive:
Anyway, I had a blast...
At the start I did it to be proud to hand Cheetah back a faction in a better state but seeing how he seems not to come back I tried my best to carve myself a Kingdom...
Too bad he had alienated the whole lot of you IC (but understandable...) and too bad I had no bargaining chip...
If England had remained neutral, I might still be fighting (their Nelson's fleet caused great harm...)...
I hope you can rise up from the ashes of your country and make your place in the world (though I'm afraid you'll be next to go...)
One reflection on the hotseat games : strange how it seems to bring out the agressive side of players... Even is SP, players will tend to attack only rebels, settle a little, wait for a betrayal or make a single attack on a neighbor but in MP games, it is a free-for-all from turn one when we could leave peacefully for many turns leveling up before turning on one another...
Like I pointed to Zim some time ago, these games tend to bring out the paranoia that we all share a part of...
Actually, it wasn't my fleet that made the killing blows against the Norse one. I was able to reach your main fleet with some of my ships but not enough to take it on. Scotland dealt the first blow, with my guys as reinforcements, then I think it was Ireland (not sure though) that took it out. Only after did I start wandering around the sea with multiple nearly full stack fleets.
MP does seem to make players more aggressive but diplomacy plays a big role in how paranoid they are. I refused to take a very good excuse to take out Wales early on when they (note, this was with their previous player) unwisely attacked a settlement of mine to gain leverage for a settlement they really wanted (in Wales proper). Instead I traded the settlement to keep the peace, even knowing no other country would help them against me at the time.
I also tend to trust allies not to attack me without cancelling the alliance a turn earlier or declaring war, much to my chagrin in the MPC and Teutonic games. I guess some of us are more naive than others.
Yep, but I was prepared to deal with all others, your taking part (if only to assist) was decisive...Quote:

I think the real clincher was when William Wallace showed up right on the front lines. I'm not sure there was much you could do at that point, even if you had control of the seas and I hadn't taken Wick.

http://www.totalwar.org/patrons/pbm/Britannia-24-3.zip
I think we can wait two days. :yes:
Two days of mourning for Norway ?...
Thanks, I appreciate...
:clown:
I'll be sure to end the mourning on Saturday. Thanks for your patience ! :)
:birthday2: More likely two days of celebration in Scotland...

Dear Gods Scotland is in a sorry state. I can barely afford the military I have now, and my population is non-existant. I have Perth with about 15000 inhabitants. The next in line is Edinburgh with about 2500 :@.
England is up:

Ireland's up.
http://www.totalwar.org/patrons/pbm/Britannia-25-2.zip
ahem
:oops: ! Sorry guys, I have played the turn and zipped it, but forgot to upload. It has been on my desktop since I played it, as I don't remove it until the player after me has done his turn. I thought degeurra was the one holding it up .... :embarassed:
Anyway, there we go.
http://www.mizus.com/files/pbm/Britannia-25-4.zip

As far as I can tell a whole lot of nothing has happened. :clown:
I should get both this and my Novgorod save up later today. :thumsbup:

England is up
So, guys, on the off chance the new patch is not save game compatible, what shall we do? Trudge on without it? Decide the Kingdoms of Britannia live happily ever after and start a new game?
I find the part about fixing hotseat scrolls promising, although it probably doesn't mean what I hope it does. :clown:
my vote would be carry on without it - we're 27 turns in!
I won't be patching until an official patch is released anyways
we can always patch a separate installation if we want to play patched SP
EDIT: think I misunderstood..
I was thinking of after the official patch came out. Game takes way to long to reinstall for me to use another leaked patch. :clown:
My biggest fear is that one or two of the games I'm in will start losing players if some people decide to patch. I'm not sure what I'd do if that happened. In the meantime, I'm perfectly happy to go on without the patch, although I suspect to be facing a multi-pronged attack in this game pretty soon. :sweatdrop:
