    Sounds good - both Quietus and TrickyLady both mentioned Germania. Maybe we should go for that? I suggest TrickyLady kick off and we play in the order people signed up.

    Okay dokay!
    I'll start the game as soon as possible.

    Small question: large or huge unit sizes?

    I think I better go for "large", as now I already stumble upon many many "delayed reinforcements", so I guess I shouldn't try to torture my PC with huge unit settings

    Oh, and shouldn't we wait for more people to sign up, as I fear that now we're heading in the same direction as the other PBMs I referred to in my first post: a few enthousiastic volunteers sign up, and after a few reigns the PBM dies a silent death...

    hmm...PBM... Why not?

    The last one I started as Carthage died a silent dead, so I would be up for it too. It has been since I last played RTW anyway, and I´ve never played Germania.

    I´m also for Large unit sizes, but how exactly is the 5prov limit going to work?

    Do you "HAVE to take 5 prov" or "if you take any provinces, it can´t be more than 5"?

    Hey SwordMaster,

    A player can only take five provinces then must pass the game to the next player. So if the game starts with 2 provinces,

    TL: 2 + 5 provinces
    Me: 7 + 5 provinces ....

    It doesn't have to be the same provinces, just to make the game constantly progressive. If I take 20 years to add 5 provinces, fine. If I take 10 years, fine as well.

    @TL: You can set your # of men to unlimited at the preference.txt file at your RTW folder to eliminate the reinforcement delays.

    Hi everyone

    Count me in .

    Does the preference file adjust only need doing in the starter's game?

    Hey Yakobu,

    Aside from the unit size, difficulty and faction - which is set by the starter - I think the preferece.txt file is player specific.
