Retech

Server is back online.

Edel, I was simply making suggestions to fill in the gaps in the rules that you had. Also, I was saying that I would play for the NPC country when it was attacked by a player.

Then don't use the clay of course! Just say that you'd live there, and you won't touch his clay again. Simple! Einfach! I'm sure he's not that irritable.

How did you do that? I think it's cowardly. At least try diplomacy first.

Oh, Edelweiss is mod. In that case, I guess I'll take Australia.

Where are you moving?

I would be interested in being the moderator, if that was acceptable with everyone, since I don't think I would be playing this round. My principle is basically that NPC countries will defend themselves appropriately, and that each country will act mostly individually. Also, if you primarily use military means against a country, then the only effect they will generally have on you is military. Propaganda, spying, etc will generally only work on NPC countries. NPC will each start with 20 years of tech and move up normally.

Also the server crashed again.

I think the best approach would be that we could discuss it when lots of people were playing. Or on IRC.

Doom, have you claimed the mine yet?

I disagree. Dusty is biased against everyone. I suppose that most people are biased against some people nowadays, but Dusty is being unbiased about it.

I like everything, except the thing about mega-alliances and attacking smaller nations drawbacks. Maybe you might have different benefits and penalties for attacking a smaller nation (If you're a militaristic country, you'll be less sad, or if you're more of a liberalist, hippy country you'd be sadder).

The island no longer needs a backpack, because we have found our own hides after some hunting. Currently we would like plant fibres, taproots, and flax/hemp seeds. The exchange rate is: One plant fibre = One fillet of High Quality Fish (Pike, Eel, Sturgeon) One taproot = One fillet of Lower Quality Fish (Perch, Brill, Poach, etc) One flax/hemp seed = One fillet of Lower Quality Fish

Ross, if Nex is willing to travel constantly between the villages, and can bring some goods that we need, then you won't need to. :P

I am now leaving the village to move into an island downstream from the river near the village. I will visit often, and bring huge fish to trade for your metals and clays, but the granaries will now have no one to fill them, so you'll have to do that yourself.

Remember to get all the items from the chest too! Like the bread for the granary.

I am the fisherman, forager, and the granary keeper. It would be appreciated if someone else could take over the forager role.

Or once a day or so, you could bring a cartload of clay to the main tavern and deposit it, before coming into my house. Then I could leave you a basket of assorted foodies for you to eat. :P

We rummaged around to see if it was you, and we found lots of clay in your cupboards, so we found out it was you and didn't take anything. Would you like to join our village? If not, maybe we could do some fish for clay trades?

Or you could just eat out of the new village granary. (My house) Once I improve my survival skill, I can cook high quality fish, but for now, there's a full cupboard. Don't eat from the coffer though, because I'm keeping the rare Sturgeon and Eel there. Try eating Brill and Perch for now. I'll also be adding a meat cupboard and a fruit/bread cupboard, so it would be nice if people could pick some apples or make some pies to add to the granary. Note: If you go fishing or foraging or hunting for food, put the butchered meat or fruit in the cupboard on the far right. That is my sorting cupboard, where I'll take it out and rearrange it into the granary.

Japan is concentrated. That should mean its cities are worth more, and since we actually know their value (One trillion IAG for all of them), then it should be simple to calculate from there. 600 Billion IAG loss?

I am stuck near somewhere called Soviet Russia? Hrrrrm, this is confusing.

How do you get onto the network?

Regardless, it still says you did it. You're on the same team, right?
