Re: Game Theory Games

Wow! Thanks Squigs.
I must admit i agree with RJ though. But most of all i'm really curious about the "maniacal" strategy at this point :-)

Re: Muting during game question/idea.

Just curious... can you give an example of the tactical or strategic value of muting someone? Honestly i can't think of anything :?

Re: Thinking strategically about the players around me

I think the centre count is not that important (until it does not reach 18 of course). Or at least is not as important as the *quality* of the centres you get, and of the ones you allow someone else to take. And having too many centres in mid game may even be dangerous, because someone will surely s...

Impossible order

I'm in a game (an anonymous one, so i won't tell more) where a player just entered an impossible order. To give an example, not the real case: it was like Paris sm to Burgundy from Gascony when there's no unit in Gascony (i just tried it in another game where i happen to own Paris, and as expected G...

Re: Something i don't understand...

You may note that Numidia didn't change color in Spring: it kept the "neutral" color, while there was just a small colored square behind your unit. This is to emphasize that you own that unit, but not that province (still). If your unit had not moved, or had moved but another unit of yours had backf...

Re: Cannot send in-game messages while on VPN

This is probably more a problem of your VPN. I spend all my day connected to my customers VPN's, and i always have to connect/disconnect or even to stop and restart services... Forticlient usually kills all htpps connections (though it depends on how it is configured server-side), Forcepoint lets yo...

Does this mean we have to wait 4 lots of our three day phases before our friend is automatically removed?
If i remember correctly, phase extensions are equal to the phase duration OR 24 hours, whichever is less. Still a lot of time, but 4 days, not 12 :-)

Re: Perpetual orders

I often wish i had the option to copy the orders from the previous season (and then modify what needs to be changed) - i think that would be very convenient in many situations

Re: Looking to Join a Game =)

Did you try the Search feature of this site? It should not be too difficult to find a game to join... i just did a search, for publicly joinable games with a phase duration of 12 hours or more, and atm there are 30 games waiting for someone to sign up - if you look for the Classic variant only there...

Funny builds phase behaviour

Hello A game i am in is in a builds phase, and i am to build one unit (it is an anon game, so i cannot say more). I can select army or fleet, and where to build it, just as usual. But i don't have the Save button, only the Ready/Not Ready one. I checked another game where we're in the same phase, an...

Re: Newbie question: unit colours on map

Just to clarify a bit further: The units are identified by colours but by a tab 'behind' the unit. You'll see this when a unit moves off a home space. So if you can't easily see what colour the unit is, the chances are it belongs to the power that controls the space. When a unit is at sea or in a su...
