Welcome!

Welcome! Just don't feel like you have to wait for the next game. The way RL has been going for me lately, you could start NOW and probably finish before I do!!!

Ducks, how's it progressing? Any hints on yet on what you've got in mind?

Thriller - the best answer I can give is:
Since we still have folks playing 501 and we still need to look at the mod in light of the DARs and post-game analysis and likely have a second round of AU Panel votes on outstanding issues, I'll stand by the following...

I don't want to steal attention from 501, as it's a fantastic game and deserves the normal post-game attention. I just want to get my... er, ducks in a row, so to speak.

That said, since this is my first map/mod/course/whatever, I plan on casting it more in the vein of AU Lite or Mini AU and it'll be partially a pseudo-revisitation of an older theme mixed with a "survey" of something new in Conquests.

But seriously, let's get back to discussing 501 and further changes/tweaks to the mod - that, and letting those that are still taking the course finish up and give their viewpoints in the post-game thread.

I fully understand the desire to get another course under way, but let's finish 501 and tie up the loose ends on the mod first.

Just bear in mind that we want rubber, oil, saltpeter, iron, coal, and uranium all to be near the capital city.

Just because I thought Dominae took the idea of making resources hard to come by (at least for those not inclined to seek out and settle distant lands aggressively) a bit overboard doesn't mean I want scenario designers to go to the opposite extreme.

Somehow I knew you would say that.....serves me right for asking!!!

Anyway, yes I agree. Only too happy to keep discussing 501 and see what recommendations come of it

It must be close to showtime for the next AU game

[TheArchduke]

I hope so too..

Well, without giving anything away, I think I can safely say that you are all in for a treat with the next AU course. I'm looking forward to reading the AARs.
