Aussie Victoria Game

[unmerged(17563)]

I thought I'd get this started, we've been uhmming and ahhing about it for ages now.

We need a night for starters, shouldn't be a problem We have a host in Mike or me so we're set there.

I propose to use the VIP mod, it has a lot more events and makes the game more interesting.

SIGN UP HERE:

COUNTRIES:
Prussia
France
Russia
Austria
Sardinia-Peidmonte
USA

I really dont think we need or want a UK, they are so uber powerful that it will unbalance the game if its human played. We can discuss rules later.

The UK is strong but later in game Russia has much greater potential to win the game.

VIP would probably change some of the dynamics of the game itself, but in MP with vanilla, its been found that without UK and Russia both in the game long-term, its gets horribly imbalanced in russia's favour by the end. its almost fair to say, that russia can win without fighting a single war against another human player.

Btw, welcome back to Victoria MP! I remember you from a previous friday or saturday night game, under the Lady Europa alias though. Always good to see someone return to the fold. I would take the opportunity to invite you to my relatively new dedicated forum for Victoria MP:
Blood and Iron. We don't have more than 1 or 2 aussie players there that i know of, but if you make this game a friday night game, you could pick up more players for certain.

Mikey I went and joined a US game, Sundays 12noon eastern, I'm sure they'd let you in still, got openings I think for USA or Netherlands.
