Also when we start, I'd like to have you guys sign your actions with

Colony Name:
Name:
Region:

because it is hard to manage 13+ people. 

I'm also changing some of your back stories so nobody gets overpowered.

Could we just sig it?

If you want.  Lots of numbers will be added though, and I only require it for posting actions so I know who you are. 

Oh yea. Before I and you forget, remember that thing, mercantilism?  Well its in practice.  Basically this means manufacturing in the colonies is illegal and trading with other countries is also illegal.  You can produce boats though.  Even if it wasn't illegal, weapons making would give you guys an advantage, and as such that is definitely not allowed unless you make one.  All weapons are produced in England. 

Speaking of weapons, if there is a guy (player) you particularly hate, you can have a duel and attempt to remove them from the game.  Something special will happen after the first death though.  Something that will make this a lot more difficult on myself. 

One more slot is open.  We are even split 4 by 4 by 4 for the number of colonies per region.  I'm surprised nobody wanted to have a shipping economy, that was big in all of the regions.  Although the South had one port, Charleston, it was the largest port in the world.

Can I add in shipping to my colony's specialties because I see everyone else have multiple specialties?

Done. 

Bonus, because I'm done with the order, except for that last guy who is holding everything up, I'll post the order of the colonies.  I'll stick the last guy in as needed. 

Order from North to South

Proelia # Borders French to the North
Lindiria
Arameia
Analee # Not an Island
Grand Republic of Pants # Not a Republic because apointed head
Woodhedge
Eisen
Vangardia # Does not produce weapons or manufacture products because mercantalism; instead trades iron for the weapons
Merida
Highlesia
Freekenels
New Veragua # Borders Spain to south


Oh yea, expect this to be very wood focused.  Considering that this is during the age of sails. 

[Firelordsky]

I also intended for my colony to be the penal colony (Like Georgia.) Would that be possible?

[USEC_OFFICER]

I can also add shipping to my colonies specialities if you want. Nicuesa is modelled on New Orleans, after all.

[mcclay]

I canne know why me father thought it would be ah good idea to settle a load o Scotsmen in teh bloody south, 'ome to think o it I'm sure 'e twas drunk. Ach, teh bloody fool, ya only get drunk when yar not ruling ah colony.

Why is everyone trying to make sure they'll have uber-militaries?

Because Bay12Games. Or to rise up in revolution. One or the other (probably the former though).

Well, I'm just going to be not-violent. The odd one out, as always.

GreatWyrmGold, you are not odd. If you are, then I am as well. For I do not have any plans to commit myself or my citizens to needless bloodshed.

Then let us join in trade, peace, and prosperity. Sun Wine?

I'll have my woodcutters clear some land so a bar can be built. Then we can partake in trade, peace, prosperity and sun wine.

Glad to hear it.

Sorry, all booze is to be donated to the Holy Empire of Proelia for the use in her most venerable machines of war.

Only if the Proelians can pay the best price. Or make a really, really good case for why the high-quality Sun Wine is needed for "machines of war."

Side note- Attention all military personnel. Drinking the Molotov Cocktails and using the gas tank of the vehicles as a winebox is punishable by demotion to Private or dishonorable discharge.

Yeah, more reason to use crap!alcohol instead of Sun Wine.

Also, no islands, there were not any major island colonies in the new world.

Aw...wait, we're doing this in the real America? Kind of?

Analee is the 4th colony from the north, suggesting a location around IRL New York or Connecticut or something. Hence, the main part of Analee will be on that island I see just south of Connecticut if this is based on the Real World New World. If not, there's such a thing as continental islands, which start out right next to the continent in question...or just add a large island near the mainland part of the Earldom. (Oh, and Analee is the name of the island, however much of the Earldom is on the mainland.)

1. Yes and no.  I might make a new map, in paint, unless someone does for me.  I'd need to find an image hosting site for that though.  A FREE one. 
2. I already fixed your back story, you eventually hit other colonies and the reason for belief that it was an island was because the people thought it was one of the islands in the East that were so prevalent.  Also you are pretty much in the same position Boston was.  It was one of the powerful cities back then, so yes like New York.  The economic difference between New York and Boston is pretty much one, the Erie Canal.  It paid for the million dollar fees in ten years.  So that's it. 

I can also add shipping to my colonies specialities if you want. Nicuesa is modelled on New Orleans, after all.

I just spent several minutes looking for Niquesa.     Then I realized you meant New Varaugua.

You need an image hosting site?

Tinypic has always worked well for me.

I'll try it, but before I make the map, I'd like to start first.

Imgur is also pretty good. I have no complaints with it.

[Shootandrun]

Colony Name: Altenia
Economy: Fish and alcohol
Name: William of Balland
Reason for colonization: A perfect spot, at the end of a medium sized bay and near the mouth of a river, for fishing and sailing - safe from the weather and maintaining easy sea access.
Reason for immigration: Beautiful beaches, somewhat good weather, easy life of farming and sailing, the best breweries of the colony, and easy access from ship... What else could you want?

[alamoes]

Awesome! We can now start.  I'm on my IPad which leads to much annoyance from me.  My computer decided to restart itself and now is really really slow.  I am done with it.

Proelia
Altenia
Lindria
Arameia
Analee
Middle
Grand Republic of Pants
