[Nilat]

What did I do wrong?

[Palaiologos]

Sorry Galv, it is Stalin's mistake after all.

Not a mistake really since it can easily be corrected.
Turn coming up in a few minutes.

[Palaiologos]

ehhh.....

Galvatron, download the new events file specialized for PBEM play.

It will be no problem for the rest of us as i will clear the events of your savegame and post my turn as normal, so my save game wll have the right events in it.

[Galvatron]

Aaand here's my turn. Wow a long time ago till I said this sentence the last tme

Emperor Galvy I. said:
The Austrian army is regrouping after the savage and brutally attack of Russia. In this attack we see the true savage nature behind Russia. All Austria wanted was a compensation after the Serb (nothing more than Russian puppets) assassinated our heir to the thrown. We know this plot was covered and sanctioned by Serbia therefore we wanted to closer investigate the matter but then the whole conspiracy revealed:

Not only Serbia but also the UK, France and Russia stand behind the assassination and they only waited for the right moment to strike into Austrian heartland and dismantle our glorious nation.

We call to all noble Nations in Europe to bind together and battle these conspirators. We fight for our survival, nothing else we are threatened in our existence and we will fight back with everything we have in our arsenal to defend the honour and integrity of our nation.

"Austrians, Italians, Hungarians and Slaws in our country, raise to arms and defend your homecountry against foreign invaders trying to destroy everything in which you believe. Austria will stand as one Nation with one language and one common goal.

Austria to arms!!!

[Galvatron]

Ok will do my turn in a few minutes I hope I can safely navigate through the jungle of all the updates and end with the right version

Oh and how about The United states of America join an alliance against The Entente and the backward and desolate Russians for a price if USA desires

Oh and about the Entente in Wien, Berlin, Ankara Good joke

"Austrian soldier to his mum: Could you plz show me the way to Paris?"
Mum: No problem son, just follow the mass of Frenchies running back you can't miss it

[Nilat]

We assume that the AMERICAN EMPIRE is just scared to join this so called "childish" war?

[academia]

Russia invites The United states of America to an alliance against The german empire and the Austro-Hungarian empire, for a price if USA desires

The Magnanimous AMERICAN EMPIRE has no interest in participate in these stupid and childish pan-european wars were powerful empires fight for a piece of land smaller than the state of Delaware.
Go on with your carnage, old europe fellas! we have more important things to do (like conquer Mexico)

[Nilat]

But could i propose something else too?
The "save before important battle and constantly reload untill outcome suits me" tactic should not be used.
I admit i use it all the time against the AI, but it just wouldn't feel right against an honourable human opponent.
Lets compete with our generalship and tactics, not by abusing the civ2 combat engine!

I agree too
