    Hmm..... If Russia is still open, I would love to be Russia.

    To Franconicus:
    Controling the speed isn't that hard. All the players have a cetain period of time, to be determined by me and the players, to react after I posted a new chapter. I will then post a new chapter within a predetermined timeframe. If someone hasn't mailed me his strategy within time, (s)he will be supposed to hesitate and not take any action

    We will only start when I feel we could have an interesting game, that is when the right characters are taken. But I'm willing to wait untill after new year (it'll probably take so long anyway).

    So Prussia is taken by Franconicus.

    I simply loved Kraxis' Mansteins woes.He could've guessed that something like this was in the air as at the end their were some posts about setting up a seabattle between 2 groups.

    To ColdKnight:
    Sure you can be Russia

    To all:
    I'm just waiting for someone to request 'la douce' France and the Belgian bourgeoisie (the rich). Without them the game is just half as fun.

    You can be Austria. But I can't say it was a large player in this, but is an interactive history so not everything has to be as it went on in reality.

    I will post the goals for Austria, Prussia and Russia later today or tomorrow ( I have exams in January so I have to be careful with my time but I can cope if I stay on schedule) but it'll probably be something like keep interior stable and help allies (= stop the republican ideas from spreading to far)

    By republican ideas I mean the cry for more democracy.

    So here are the contestants so far:
    - Antiochus III as Willem I
    - Strike for the South as England
    - Franconicus as Prussia
    - ColdKnight as Russia
    - Kagemusha as Austria

    Still looking for France and the Belgian rich ( bourgeoisie) and (but this is not necessary the Rotschilds). All others will be denied

    Doesn't every nation choose its own goals? Are the goals visible for everyone or just for each player?

    they are just some vague goals, just to be a bit historical correct.

    great idea Mr. White

    I'll be the wealthy Belgians. Don't know anything about he emergence of Belgium, and am too lazy to look stuff up, but that only makes it more fun.
