Kingdoms-Crusades hotseat

[Ferret]

Anyone interested in starting a hotseat campaign for Kingdoms- the crusades?
If so I'll take Antioch

Kingdom of Jerusalem - Tristan de Castelreng (France GMT+2)
Principality of Antioch - Elite Ferret (UK GMT+1)
Egypt - Doug-Thompson (US central GMT-5)
Turkey - PrivateerKev
The Byzantine Empire - Zim

All battles will be auto resolved and the console will be disabled.

Antioch	Elite Ferret	1
Jerusalem	Tristan_de_Castelreng	2
Byzantines	Zim	3
Turks	PrivateerKev	4
Egyptians	Doug-Thompson	5

I will give it a try as soon as I get kingdoms... Waiinting for a friend coming back from the States with it in his luggage...

P.S. : I'd like to play Jerusalem

[_Tristan_]

Sorry for the OT but are any of you on Xfire ?

My Xfire Name is wingedguard

[_Tristan_]

Nice to know we'll finally be starting

Welcome Stig and Proletariat

@Doug : Don't worry about time zones... It was to know if yoou could be online at any given time

[Ferret]

here is the list of players in order, the number is what to put after the file when you upload it (eg the file that Doug would download for his 3rd turn would be 'Crusades-3-5' the 3 to represent turn number and the 5 is Doug's number. He would then upload a file as 'Crusades-4-1' for me. I hope this is clear for everyone.

Antioch	Elite Ferret	1
Jerusalem	Tristan_de_Castelreng	2
Byzantines	Zim	3
Turks	PrivateerKev	4
Egyptians	Doug-Thompson	5

I will start the game on Hard difficulty unless anyone has any major objections

[Stig]

Please make it medium, I suck at this game really, especially on hard

[Ferret]

my turn is played and uploaded as Crusades-1-2 for Tristan

[Ferret]

ahh come on I've never played a game on hard either and remember all battles and stuff are autoresolved

Although I'm not likely to get Kingdoms anytime soon, I must say what a wonderful idea this is. Hotseat campaigns like this, where there are only a handful of factions and everyone can have a player, look like they'll be a lot of fun.

[_Tristan_]

@Bob : When making the table listing factions and players could you add locations and local time of players

[Ferret]

okay I think I am in GMT+1 atm bacause of daylight saving time what time zone are you in Doug?

[_Tristan_]

okay I think I am in GMT+1 atm bacause of daylight saving time what time zone are you in Doug?

GMT does not vary with DST, it is standard..

It is just to know when I have most chances of reaching other players

[Ferret]

well at the bottom of the page it says 'all times are GMT+1' and that time is the same as on my clock so I guess I am in GMT+1

[Doug-Thompson]

okay I think I am in GMT+1 atm bacause of daylight saving time what time zone are you in Doug?

U.S. Central Time, which is GMT -5.

At this moment, it's the 9:10 p.m. in Greenwich and 4:10 p.m. here.

So if we're trying to do this all at once, with people making moves in fast succession, we may have a bit of a problem.

[Stig]

If you really need another person Bob I'll be Byzzies

Edit: but I won't be able to take turns in the weekends
