I uploaded it for you Micro102

http://s000.tinyupload.com/?file_id=06057183908922870297

Anyway, I will only manage the first game, the 2end you can all abuse as you desire, as that is somewhat funny.

Awesome, thanks. Final obstacle, do I send the save file after I've done all I wanted to, and before I end the turn? Or do I end the turn and use the generated save file?

After the turn [End Turn]

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

For me specifically, the steps where:

Creating a folder in Appdata/dom4/savedgames - I named it Bay423Ryleh. Make sure to have NO spaces in the file name or it might now show up ingame.

Then download the file you got in your email.
Then go ingame, do the turn. End turn.
Then go back to the folder, grab the file and answer to the email you got - with it attached.


*Edit: We still need your turn Micro102

It's worth pointing out that missing the first turn can be devastating so try and get that in. Though this oddly works in my favor since I'll be busy all of tomorrow, but I should have enough time to get my turn in regardless.

If you are the last person submitting and have the time, try to submit a second turn when you get the next round file (it should be just a few minutes after you submit if you're the last person)- it speeds things up quite a bit.

So: I was the only person to blindly expand on the first turn. I now have a new province, but looking at the army statistics, it's made me militarily the weakest nation there is. Hopefully that won't be an issue.

I only find first turn expansion to worth it if you either bring your pretender or are lucky enough to fight weak indies.

Uhoh.... I accidentally pressed end turn twice. I have yet to choose which nation to play as, what do I do? Is the save good?

If you hit End Turn, the game is saved as it was at that point; if you haven't done anything, nothing is done one way or the other. Hitting End Turn twice won't do anything special. You can reopen it if you want, and continue from where you were, or just submit it. You can keep redoing the turn or whatever as long as you want; it only matters when you finally hit End Turn (or Save game and Quit under options), attach, and email it.

Wow I'm dumb. Didn't even occur to me to simply redownload the save and redo the turn :P. Panic can really mess with your head.

Looks like we can already get a lot of info from the score graphs. Maybe we'll keep em off next time.

Shinuyama is rocking a high magic rainbow with sick research, C'tis might have a awake pretender with awe that grabbed a province turn 1 (beware those nearby, its dominion is not chill) and Ociana tanked scales heavly for something nasty.

It's not so much that I tanked scales... I just didn't pick very good ones, and I have terrible luck. As in, actual luck, not in-game scales, I do actually have the latter in positive.

Random event on the first turn? Six thousand-ish people get up and leave my capital province. I have no words, except "bring it". :P

And I believe I already said I wasn't a very good player, so my idea of "nasty" is fairly tame, really. It might take a few turns to set up.

Aha that sucks - you can get a lot of profit out of transforming your pans later in the game, as they become upkeep free if you do that.

I have to say, I found transform to be very underwhelming until I discovered they become free of upkeep. It's a nice spell :)
