An Even Newer Imp1870 Game (aenig)

[Iron Chancellor]

Anyone care to start a new game? If you don't know, it is an Imperialism game starting in 1869 and going untill about 1919. The emphasis is on trade, and upon building your colonial empire at the expense of weaker countries. The playable civs are:

England-FiGu
France-JamesJKirk
Russia-Prometheus
Germany (inc. Holland, Scandinavia and the Boer republics)-MeckPomm
Japan-Prouler
USA-Iron Chancellor

and the Independents (Spain, Italy, Latin America)

The Independents are primarily in existence to be carved up as they are far weaker than anyone else, but if someone feels up to the challenge, be my guest.

[FiGu]

Iron Chancellor, can you get this thread renamed or start a new threat with a different name because there is already a New Imperialism 1870 Game thread and it might be confusing.

[Iron Chancellor]

I realized that after creating it. To whom do I speak regarding that?

[St Leo]

Have fun.

[MeckPomm]

Germany or France for me please!

[Iron Chancellor]

Well, MeckPomm, you have your choice of either. Look it over, and finalize your decision

[MeckPomm]

Germany

[JamesJKirk]

I'll take France

[prouler]

[Iron Chancellor]

Alright, if I'm not mistaken Russia has first move, and the order is like so:

Russia
Japan
France
Germany
America
Britain

Neutrals
Let's go!

Message from the White House:
As the turn for America comes so late, I would like to start everyone off with a reminder that the Monroe Doctrine still stands. The free nations of the Americas are to remain such. Any attempt to colonize free nations will be seen as a hostile act against the United States of America.

On a friendlier note, we welcome peace and trade with the other Great Powers, and hope that our nations shall grow together in peace. We especially would like to welcome our neighbors to the north in the British empire, and the new German Empire, hoping that it shall learn from the mistakes of its predecessors and choose peaceful expansion over war.

Sincerely yours,
TR

[Prometheus]

I will play tonight, we play PBEM’s on Prince right?

[Iron Chancellor]

Well, the recommended level (by the creator) is King, but I do not care either way.
