we are trying we best way with the ip it wont load as we see at the end : Game not found but we hosted it. I say we because we think that one can better hosted as the other so tried the otherone to go there . The problem i see is only that it wont load and the game wasnt found. we have look after everything . we have the same patch . same checksum and so on. it says only that the game wasnt found.
Firewalls and stuff?
I can't say for sure about sieges, but I have had plenty of wars which last 20+ years of boring occupation (vassalizing burgundy in their starting size as Austria, for example).
Hm. My experience is different, i remember quite exactly that when going for a WC and not exactly sure whether i would finish below infamy limit or not, i simply occupied all of the european OPMs thinking that i could annex them whenever i want this way, and they all whitepeaced out after some time. I might test this a bit more once i get back to somewhere where i have a PC that can run EU3.
