Thinking on this game, it might be useful to turn on Universal Warehouses, in order to minimize micromanagement.

I am fine either way, I have never been fond of players using he starvation to plague strategy on B2 especially since now it is much easier to buy food there or bring it in on Smugglers or Obun Diplomatic Vessels.

Universal Warehouse On will make the game move faster in PBEM, I am more a traditionalist is solo player games but it can become tedious in PBEM.  I am fine either way since I am a natural micro-manager.   :)

Here are some links for installation with Windows 7.

Imperialus made this youtube video during my last PBEM Game to help with setup.

And, here is the link to the Window Patch, I will add these to the Emperor Wars Download page tomorrow.

Am I suppose to be starting the game with "EFS" or "EFSHYP"?  I've been assuming EFSHYP, but am unsure.

Huh, I used EFS.exe exclusively during our last 9 turn attempt, but I have no idea.

Good! We're almost ready to begin. I just need a quick update from everyone involved:

EuchreJack would you still like Decados?

And a1s are you interested in joining? If not then Vertab Nukks will get the spot for House Li-Halan.

Final decision on Warehouse On/Off and Plague(Starvation)?

I would prefer warehouse off and plague on, but not committed to either.

Otherwise all other settings should be:
Rebellion On
Combat Reports On
Tutorial Off
Consume Food On
And I believe everyone is set to beginner.

Sorry, guys. You can't count on me playing until at least the 9th of next month. Maybe 15th.
I've got so much work to do on a deadline I'm going crazy.

I don't mind if you find somebody else in my place in the meantime.

Well that is unfortunate. Fortunately as House al Malik, we have a little time to start this and find a temporary replacement at the same time. Although considering how long all this takes to setup and play you might just get your first turn just in time for your deadline to end.

I feel similarly.

Oh, right, I was signed up for this but got dis... ohh, shiny!
I'll gladly play Li Halan, but my EFS is pretty rusty.

+1, except I don't even care about plague.

Edit: does that mean I need to create the game?

You would be correct, and then the next in line would be Karlito I believe. Make sure to also send your password to him as well.

I think we are also going with beginner difficulty and default House traits.
 Although I'm going to get rid of Hawkwoods Charismatic Leadership bonus for Friend in the League which does almost nothing. Potentially +40 loyalty for very unit is overpowered as all hell. +20 is more reasonable.

Can i still join? I would prefer to play as House Decados. I have no experience in playing PBEM in EotFS, but i have already many times participated in other PBEM games and one time managed to finish EotFS in singleplayer.

If you really want in, I can give you Li Halan, I haven't stared yet.
