With TsunamiUSA and Europe Divided both seemingly near their completion, a Transatlantic is currently being put together with the intention of having some of the best players of both North America and Europe join a single campaign and fight to create a dominant power.
The goal of the game is to be Ahistorical, but not unreasonable.
For example, If Austria and Spain do not wish to Ally, they don't have to. if Austria decides they want to keep The Netherlands over Italy, that is their choice.
If the Ottomans actually give Alexandria to Venice...
Well, That would be ridiculous, but perfectly within their rights.
The game will be innovative in the sense that Ahistorical Unification is an option.
if Venice (or Genoa, Naples, Tuscany, Papal States, Et Cetera) somehow manages to unite the Italian Peninsula, they are permitted to use the "ITA" tag.
The Holy Roman Empire, the Kalmar Union, and the Hanseatic League would also have the potential to be created.
This will almost certainly be a 1492 "Age of Exploration" Game, but the Scenario we will use has not been decided as of yet.
We will not be allowing random people join from Valkyrienet.
only people who have Signed up or have been asked to Substitute via ICQ, AIM, Yahoo, etc. will be allowed to play in the campaign.
There is no limit to players, as of yet. if we end up with 20 Players, so be it.
If someone crashes during peacetime, we will wait until January of the following year to pick them up. if it is almost January when they crash, then we will wait another year after that.
If someone crashes during a Human vs Human or major AI war, they will be picked up as soon as possible.
If many players crash due to a problem with the host's computer, the players will be picked up as soon as possible.
As far as giving cultures out goes, the policy is the following:
If someone wants a culture that is not given to them by the Scenario or by Event, the request will be voted on.
Any other major changes to a player's country will be voted on as well. Each player gets one vote, except for the Campaign Leader (at this time, SaDisTiK) who gets Two votes.
In the case of a Tie, democracy is lost and the Campaign Leader will be given the authority to make an Executive Decision and decide the matter himself.
Aside from that, there are no rules at this time.
The goal of the game is to have as much fun as possible.
That being said, insulting people and being arrogant in general is permitted, as long as the person isn't serious and trying to offend.
If someone breaks that rule more than once, a vote will be called and the players will decide whether or not to suspend/kick the offensive player from the campaign.
Those are the only rules at this time. if you want to sign up for the "Rise and Fall" campaign, this is the place to do so.
The Rules are not Final, and some may be removed by the time the campaign starts if the general concensus is that it is a bad rule.
As far as "Time" goes, I'm aiming for a compromise time that Europeans and Americans can both get around to playing.
Probably Starting Time
23:00 or Midnight EST (Eastern United States and Canada)
20:00 or 21:00 PST (Western United States and Canada)
4:00 or 5:00 GMT (Western Europe)
5:00 or 6:00 CET (Central Europe)
6:00 or 7:00 EET (Eastern Europe)
If you have any further questions, you can post them here, send me a PM, or ICQ me at 44829989.
