Since I some experience playing Poland I may consider that as a possiblity I have finally been learning how to keep their inflation down and their bad events to a minimum...I've played Sweden twice and Austria thrice in MP games...OE isn't a big factor for me. Definitely would like to put Satan into Austria if possible.

Drew,

Let me know if you're switching and I'll take the OE...

Mughals are fun, but I'm itching to be the scourge of Europe.

HG, hey. I'm pretty certian on Giving up OE, just curious on what I would take in the place of it... Poland and Sweden to weigh. Sweden can lean on being boring at times, and I've played her twice alreayd in MP. Maybe Poland. I have to consider it

All,

Also, while I'd love to start in 1492, I strongly suggest, for the sake of game balance, PE 1520...

If the consensus is against me I won't complain a bit. But don't say I didn't warn you. ;)

I agree with HG, from my (admittedly limited) experience the PE 1520 is much better for game balance than the 1492 campaign

edit: typo

Perhaps considering the presence of a Persia we'll have little choice ::yawns::

Elijah, BB is taken by Self Parody but if he fails to show we'll try not to have her maulled and leave her open and dusted for ya mate. no biggie, until tomorrow

Drew,

Are we confirmed on a player Persia? (last I saw you'd asked China to switch)

It'd go a long way to holding me in check for a while... At the very least, I'd have to choose between theaters. But even in PE it's a dead-end-she'll lose Isfahan, Iraq, Basra, Kirkuk, etc. eventually.

I suggest, if he wants to stay in China, that we leave it open for someone who happens by and would like to participate in a session or two, but not necessarily the whole game.

On the other hand, the Mughals, in my opinion, are a much better long-term bulwark and antagonist of the Turks.

we'd have to convince him of that. not hard to do, the Mughal is pretty awesome, I think far more interesting than another Muslim...

How about Elijah go Sweden or Denmark next week? :)

Moez should go either Persia or Mughal. If you play China you might as well play SP.
The Persia/Austria combo is pretty potent. It works to keep the OE in check quite well. :)

SP is BB... Would be very nice and balancing to have a Sweden-Denmark...Elijah is welcome to either if he wouldn't mind them. That or we can find another opening in a Minor if he'd have fun or another Major. Whatever is open, whoever isn't present. Tonight if players don't show they default their nations to the next Draft choice and or by first come first serve policy ;) that is an incentive to get the game going with the most dedicated players in the most important slots. Spain-France-England-Austria-OE-Russia-Poland-Sweden/Denmark

And We're not confirmed on Persia... Though China isn't a longterm asset to the game at all. I'd rather prefer that Mughal/Persia<on second thought even if Persia is overrun the players draft choice was Persia> is the furthest nation played from Europe<China isn't going to be allowed>. 1520 PE 1.10 it is then, unless the vote pushes the other direction. I still have no word from Satan, ICQed him about Austria...
