Now I see the trouble. You forgot the actual save. I did turn out to have all the proper logs.

So how do I know when it's my turn?  Or are we doing simultaneous turns with end-of-turn processing?

You are player number five, the player number is the first number after the name. The filenames are something along the lines of
"bay12_4_24061_plr_0002_stats.txt".

"bay12" is the name of the game.
"4" is the current player
"24061" is the current date

So you are waiting for all the files to begin with 'bay12_5'.

since there's been no response from Seryntas, and I've pm'ed him the other day, I've set the faction back to AI.

I am not sure what this means for the game. Captain Mayday should have access to the dropbox folder and can apparently be contacted on this forum.

P.S.
 I do not see a current set of savefiles in the usual place.

New Sellonius Herald:
Battle in Toobin: Imperial Victory

The Channel Fleet, based around the flagship Bulwark, a Bastion-D carrier, today engaged a disorganized flotilla of Saldean ships, marking the first major battle of this war. The enemy fleet, centered around two powerful light cruisers of the class designated Regenerator by Imperial Intelligence, also contained a destroyer (Reporting Name Buzzsaw and a screen of five missile frigates (Reporting Name Catapult), along with a troop transport carrying an invasion force. Despite heavy losses to the bomber groups, fighters from the three carriers were able to bring down the heavy shields of the Regenrators, which then succumbed quickly to the heavy guns of the fleet. Without the cruiser's firepower, the remaining ships broke and attempted to flee, but were annihilated in a chaotic close-range melee, while marines from the frigate Plunderer managed to board and capture the Buzzsaw, which will be taken into the fleet as IAV Victory. The Corsair-class frigates Plunderer and Penance received minor damage. The Imperial Exploration Corps reports that the Riga-III class escort Polaris was lost with all hands, and the gutted hulk was scuttled to deny her to the enemy. Losses to the air groups, counting fighters destroyed or damaged beyond repair are nearly 27%.



Therese some artistic liscense taken with that description. If Boski doesn't mind, and I can figure out how, I'll try to upload a video of the engagement.

Hmmmm. That would be the Hlidararas task group. I don't mind you uploading the video, in fact I encourage it, but I do mind the misspelling of Saldean. It's really petty, but it irks me quite a bit.

In other news, I doubt I'll be able to complete my turn until Sunday at the earliest. Family obligations, you see. I was also kinda worried that I forgot to mention to you guys that I was taking a ten day vacation in Frankfurt a short while ago, but I was relieved to find you hadn't skipped my turn or anything when I came back.

Alright, turn is up and I don't want to be outdone by Shonus, so...

Quote
The throne room upon Vortheimili was a grand construction. The whole room was made out of gleaming marble, covered in exquisite murals and carpets and tapestries depicting the greatest achievements of the Saeldan States. An intricate lighting system bathed the hall in a soft glow, leaving not a single dark corner. While it appears to be ancient and devoid of modern technology, behind its marble walls countless circuits are aglow as part of the palatial supercomputer that courses throughout the entire building, an engineering marvel whose disparate circuits are all synchronized by advanced time-manipulation equipment. And besides a few ceremonial guards, it was empty.

Below the throne room lies the Supreme Overlord's office, where the real decisions are made. Supreme Overlord Ekolfur sat in his chair before some of his most trusted ministers. Despite being somewhat old he did not appear frail, but rather as if age had merely weathered away his weaknesses.
"The fact that they have a fleet in Toobin means they intend to attack Cestus. There is no doubt about it."
Bryndis, the admiral in charge of the Cestus defensive line, took a moment to shift in her seat before continuing.
"Based off our analysis of the battle data, I do not think we will be able to mobilize our forces quickly enough to save the new Munjumb colonies. All we can do is to make taking them as costly as possible to the Aprilians."
The tense atmosphere got even tenser. Abandoning two whole colonies was not something done lightly.
"And you have done everything you could think of?", asked the Supreme Overlord. "Yes, my lord. I and my advisers have gone over everything we could think of."
"Well then, hire some more advisers to think for you. You have an unlimited budget right now, so use it."
The Supreme Overlord turned his head towards the figure to the right of Bryndis. "Karlsefni, do you think they will mount an attack on Bizzet as well?" "It's possible," rumbled the large Ixthalar, "it simply depends on how much of their resources the Aprilians are willing to put into this war. According to our intelligence reports, they probably have the ships to create another similarly-sized fleet, perhaps even two. If they do, it's a big threat since they might hit us as early as next month. I can only hope our defenses can withstand it."
"Just do what you can, admiral. That's all I'm asking. If we can repel the Aprilians long enough for Projects Óvæntur Glaðningur and Göfugar Öfgar to bear fruit we may yet come out of this on top."

Eyes lurking in the darkness, a mind screams, the body grows stronger, the horrors that gaze are met, fear and anticipation spread.
