Question re. Game Start

Hi everyone,

I've just started a game, and I have one other person joined up (and presumably more on the way). Do we decide which country we play as? If so, when (and how) do we choose this?

Thanks

How were you planning to find an Austria? Of course it's randomly placed.

Hey, don't be condescending. OP asked a legitimate question. Plus some people like to play Austria.

There are some sites where you can create a game and select an option where people choose their countries, but that's not a feature here at this time.

Nothing wrong with playing as Austria (proof is in the pudding)

Also signed up to your game looking forward to it :)

2 more needed so hopefully this comment will bump this up the board

Austria is great. Go big or go home!

Exactly! Not my first choice, but it's my most played. I think I've played 3 games as Austria in the past month, and they've been generally successful.

Agreed. The system attributing countries must be buggued... I get 48 % of time France, 48 % Austria and barely one of the 5 remaining... I am generally successful too by the way...

Try mixing those FvA games up with some GvI.. You'll see a rapid change in the percentages.
