CAMPAIGN multiplayer

**nicolaswille** · 08-07-2007, 05:19

Hi, we've running multiplayer campaigns for a while over at miydai.com

There are 5 in progress right now. We're currently searching for players for a sixth. There are only 6 out of 18 slots currently open.

This is a long-term strategic affair. IT involves lots of diplomacy and over-all strategy. If you are interested, check out our 4 vanilla games and one game on the Tyronia map/mod. You're welcomed to sign up for our sixth as well.

To moderators: The whole point of posting this here is because nobody ever browses the multiplayer section, we're trying to show the community what they are missing. Please leave this here for a few days if possible. Thank you so much in advance

I browsed the site a little but couldn't find a section for the rules of the game. So :
How it is played ? Passing savegames around the players I assume, but how are the battles resolved ? What about diplomacy & alliances ? Are there time limits for a player to make his turn ? Anything else we should know

Would you be so kind to post a link or better, a brief description of the rules and mechanics. I know how hotseat works, but never tried it and don't have any idea how this will work with several other people over the internet. Could you enlighten someone who has seen almost exclusively the single player side of things (except for LAN battles...) ?

Likewise, more information please.

ok, we are a web page that have made a system to play with other people. We are runing off people, for our 6 games we are curently runing. So this is how this works you pick your factions, or the factions available. So then for example lets say you picked the English, so you play your turn you once you finish playing it you save your turn and then you post your saved game in this page, then France guy will come and download and play the game then post it then spain will download and play, etc. Theres a 24 H limit for each turn if you don't appear in 24 one of your allies will play for you or a moderator will

battles are auto resolve, if this doesn't answer all your questions come here:

@nicolaswille

So, am I right in assuming from this explanation that if I save a game after completing my turn for the English faction, I can pass that saved game file to a player playing the French and he can then load it and complete his French turn?

I had always assummed that if I sent someone else my saved game and they loaded it then the game would automatically assume that they were playing the same faction I was.

Also can you explain how battles are handled as it seems to me that if I pass my English file to the French Player and he attacks one of my armies then I'm not going to get to control my own forces.
