Also, you were puny and allied with India.

Hopefully, next game doomblade will be bigger.

I'm kinda hoping for more people, more spread out. Having a handful of major players, most of whom allied early in the game, is surprisingly un-fun.

...Speaking of alliances, how do you propose them?

Oh, Lukeinator, what maps do you have? I played the LotR map and that was pretty fun. Or we can do the Americas, or a naval one(where only provinces with a naval city are available).

In players screen, click on the person's name, GWG.

We should ally end this and do a true free-for-all. I've never played a naval map, so I vote for one of those. I also played Toy Soldiers and had a lot of fun.

I can only do the basic maps. Which consist of variations on the world.

I would win. Hands down. GWG and Luke would instantly start ripping each other apart, with GWG gutting Luke's countries while Luke advances steadily while eating his cities, you would nibble at the fringes and probably pick away and keep them both weak, stepping in seriously whenever one side got the upper hand, until they were both weak enough that you could step in and try and take. Much for yourself as possible, while I would finish off Russia and keep my defensive front, turning my full attention on the three of you, subduing Luke easily, then turning to you and fighting for a decent time as long as you'd played smart and let them hurt each other while mostly keeping out of the conflict,before eventually conquering you and finishing off the last vestiges of resistance, while GWG would use the respite to prepare the best defense he could, and while he would objectively be the hardest opponent since East Russia for me at that point, due to his time to prepare and his innate intelligence, I'm not an idiot either and would have ~80% of the map by that point, so I could just spam Militia and let time go by, as his economy faltered and broke and mine, using the 10 cost militia, would just send in hordes of the slow but cost-efficient units, probably by naval transport. I would use infantry instead, if money wasn't an issue, since they're better, faster, and only cost four times as much. He might gain some ground initially, but the war machine would grind on and eat him.

Edit: wow, the only period in that sentence was at the very end, by mistake, or after the 'naval transport' statement.

You're India?

I'd like to say I'd crush you before you could do that, but if I tried I'd probably get gutted by West Russia and Turkey. And yeah, in the end it would probably be down to you and me. I'm prepared to admit: I'd probably lose.

Oh, and one last thing:
his innate intelligence
Thank you.

I would be very interested in joining the next game of this when it starts up. I might not end up checking this thread when it does start up, so if it is at all possible, a PM from the game creator when it starts would be greatly appreciated.

To me it seems like eurasia was to small a map.
Depending on how many people we get, do you think we could do the world?

I call Iceland!

Now someone will have to take it to deprive me of it...hehehehe.

I actually would advise us being allowed to pick three countries, and given a smaller budget; one small enough that we couldn't, for example, choose India, the UK, and the Northeast US. But large enough that we could, say, pick the UK, Ireland, and Portugal.

Germany worked well for me, but if we've got the whole world I might reconsider.
