Kings, Emperors, and Statesmen: A Saga 1066-1920

[Varyar]

thanks for that - I'll have a look at who I can play as

what if I can't play for the whole 5 hours?

I'm in England, which is kind of handy because we sneakily made it so that everyone else has to work out their time zone relative to us

You can play less if you wish, that is no problem. Only risk is that the AI will ruin your country when you leave

Don't forget that even England has DST(summer) time now, so for you the game most likely starts at 16:00 british time.

Oh and in case you missed my late edit above: Please specify in this thread before sunday which kingdom you pick, Kaleb. All the alternatives have been AI-run for quite some time so we'll have to remove som badboy points from them(most likely).

 

[Lurken]

Jens Z: I support that suggestion.

And when did we change the time from 1700 CET to 1500 CET?

"Coz I'm G M T, I'm dynamite..."

I'll make a calculation of how much BB we subtract from the pre-AI 13BB.

Darn GMT...

You do that.

right - I did miss the edit. I think Italy sounds good but which be most interesting for the rest of you? I should be ready at the start but not at the end of the session

yes indeed! I do often forget that. Oh and it's BST not DST

DST is the generic term for summertime though

Hey Sid, I think we should make a small edit to the country.csv file we're using(the one from Astrea). As of now, KoBolgar has the same Yellow colour that the Seljuqs have. This ought to be changed, a reasonable alternative is Brown.

Italy would be the reasonable choice, because all the other options are horribly weak. It has close to no BB too so no edits required.

Sounds good.

kk.

hey, 41BB is indeed a heavy burden. I would suggest to take the value before the session in which Poland was NPC led and modificate it by an amount about equal to 5 years of peace.

I don't remember at which date that session ended, but according to the savefiles I have stored, Poland's BB at the time was about 13. With Sterkarm's high piety, that number drops by about 0.75 per year, so 5 years of peace would equal a BB loss of 3.75. That would mean that Poland would start next session with roughly 9.25BB(-3,7% monthly loyalty).

I am not sure if I can play this sunday, I will try to make it, but I can't promise anything.

 

[Jens Z]

For my recent AAR I would like to opt for the BB reduction.

 

[Joohoo]

Byz would like money for its AAR.

 

[Varyar]

AAR updated, link in my sig.

I'd like to have the BB reduction, please.

 

[Lurken]

A small snafu, I might be late for the game, as I to not know when my soccer match ends, and the follow-up "synchs".

Aj, not good Do you know roughly how late you might be? And what about Germany if you're much late? The rules state that war against absent human's nation is prohibited, but the coming war will be difficult to postpone methinks, if Germany is to support Poland.

Hopefully not more then one hour, you see, I planned this in my head using the assumption that we started in 17.00 CET, which once again show that when you assume, things go bad.

AAR up now.
i would like the BB reduction please.
Cya guys tomorrow

Err... the game does start at 17:00 CEST. Or rather, the official start time is 17:00, then it takes some 30 minutes before everyone has shown up, downloaded the save and all that

Still, the greater problem is the upcoming war. Is it okay with you if the AI fights the beginning of the war for you? Or shall Poland fight alone until you show up?

If we start 17.00 CET then I can surely make it.
