    Im in as the Greek cities...
    Also shouldnt the game be a bit tweaked for some small balancing?
    Like the Egyptian issue? But for a start the vanilla 1.3 will do...

    So how much programming are we talking about here? If it is not too much I may be able to help.

    Will this be in VC++? What are you using for the comms?

    OK, Shifty PMd me with these questions, but as they are good questions, everyone should know the answers:

    diplomacy? Perhaps diplomacy is entirely up to the players or can diplomacy actually be done in game? Diplomacy is a huge deal for me when playing with other people.

    Which version of rtw are you using?

    How exactly do you set up a game? Do you need a special program aside from the script? Do you need to manually email files? etc.
    Battles for the time being should be autoresolved. I'm hoping to include playable battles in a future release. This should be quite difficult, so don't expect it soon.

    At the moment diplomacy isn't really included directly in the game. If you try to make a diplomatic offer with someone then the AI will answer for them. I strongly suggest banning the use of diplomats except for bribery and trade rights.

    I tested on a 1.2 RTW install, though in theory the game should work fine so long as everyone is using the same version and mod NB: Could you all include in your posts here, not only you faction, but also the version you play, and a preference list of mods.

    e.g I want to play Julii, my email is dont@mail.me, I play V1.2.
    In order of preference my mods are:
    Chiv TW
    RTR


    Thank you.

    This last part cuts me a bit. I had hoped to release this project as a final version. This would have included a download-able program which would prevent cheating and automate the file exchange. This it seems may take me a while longer. If I can release that program before you people gather a team, then I'll be really happy.

    Well I would try to program this but I'm really occupied at the moment with 3 projects as well as the semester start :(
    Really looking forward to the thing, though.

    P.S.: If you send me the current work done I can see how much time it would take to alter this so much that it works, and if it would only take some 10 hours or so I might be able to push it in somewhere... Might take a week or two, though.
