Concert of Europe: Rules and General Discussion Thread

[windjammer]

I'm not sure but I believe the kingdom of Naples is ruled by King of Spain

[windjammer]

Btw,
Would it be possible to avoid a european war right now?
Because how it written I don't see how it doesn't escalate with the UK.
Would it be possible to avoid the hostilities right now?

There's been fighting in the Americas between France and Britain, but it hasn't escalated into a full-blown war yet. It's up to you and Britain to avert the tension

Because I believe it would be good for the game to avoid a war right now. It would end the game before it began.

I don't know what other players think of that but in my view war shouldn't be possible for the first turns.

[windjammer]

And could you give US our military strength please?

[windjammer]

Could you post as well for the navy please?

[windjammer]

For the fleets, I have found these following numbers:
The UK: 120
France: 100

[windjammer]

Nothing further from me this round, unless of course some jerk PMs me with official diplomatic message

I just need one or two more players' orders and we might be able to close it early

Well I'm slow as I'm asking many questions

[windjammer]

With all due respect,
It makes absolutely no sense that a country is allied with France, GB and Prussia.

So, for the sake of clarity, I believe one of the alliances, either with me, or with GB-Prussia, should be cancelled.

Why?  No offense, but this sounds excessively restrictive at best.  If France wants to make that its own official policy then okay, but that feels a bit like dictating players' choices in a way that might make the game a great deal less fun.  I mean, if you can't explore alternate possibilities beyond the obvious moves then what's the point?  These games aren't about who wins so much as the fun we all have thinking of crazy schemes to climb the next rung, I think.  But maybe that's just me *shrug*

It's not about me, but this is to make sense. If Spain wants to break the alliance with me I would respect it, but it makes absolutely no sense that a country is allied at the same time to GB/Prussia and to France, considering the actual tensions. It would have never happened irl.

Well,
Problem solved

[windjammer]

Oh and by the way,
I never insulted CMB2 by PM and I assume he's saying that for roleplay thing and that's fine, but I just wanted to clarify lol.

[windjammer]

Gotfan, I'm genuinely curious, why did you choose to reduce your own powers???

[windjammer]

Enlightenment, dear boy. I'm not a tyrannical autocrat like you

A *holy* tyrannical autocrat

[windjammer]

Just a heads up that I will be gone on vacation from Friday evening to Monday afternoon. I should have occasional internet access to answer any immeadiate questions, but if any widespread war between players breaks out it will be until Monday before I can post a new thread for it.

Keep including me in PMs while I'm away so I will understand everything that occurs in by absence. Feel free to submit your orders as usual during this period as well.

Relax well

[windjammer]

It appears that even when I'm not involved that is still my fault and I must apologize

[windjammer]

There is something I have been really pissed it's that Dkrol-Lumine-Gotfan always do their aggression stuff in the last days of the time available, like their raising their taxes on french goods etc etc. Which doesn't let me proper time to answer.

I don't believe there are any bad intentions behind though, but I would like to request an exceptional extension of the timing in order to properly answer this threat.

Regards,
Windjammer

Dude, calm down.

That's how the game works - one person/side does something, and the other side responds. We have a full week for the turn. I can do whatever I want within that week, at any point during that week, just like you can. You need to be able to respond. It's called being prepared, thinking ahead, leading the game instead of being passive.

You have almost 48 hours to respond. If you can't do it in that amount of time...

I'm not even angry but anyway.
I stand with my comment though. It's annoying that you're always doing their aggressive stuff the last days of the available time.

[windjammer]

No, it would be "annoying" if I posted it at 11:59 PM when the turn closes at 12:00 AM. We didn't. You have plenty of time. Any further extension that what has already been granted will slow the game down too much, and unfairly advantage the other side. We all have a week time-scale to work in. We all knew that when we joined the game.

I don't have 1 week, I have 32 hours.
And seriously, why are you so aggressive to me?

[windjammer]

It appears someone isn't lucky lol

[windjammer]

Well,
I have been *royally* ed (and the worst is that I'm accused of something I didn't do lol) Congrats on Lumine for that.

[windjammer]

By the way,
Am I the only one to believe that this game is more interesting than the seven years war? (which was interesting too )

[windjammer]

I don't really understand what you mean but go ahead lol

[windjammer]

I am a bit sick and I need to sleep a lot.

If I don't answer your messages quickly, it's normal but I will anyway!

[windjammer]

I'll have to leave this. My West Wing game is coming up soon, so I need to focus my attention there.

Well, best of luck with your game!

[windjammer]

I think screwing with DKrol when you knew you were getting out was a bit low.

Well,
I don't want to be a SH*T or anything but it seems to me it's more fktolga who screwed up with gotfan than the contrary.
