Diplomacy in another age

[Modo44]

A stray Spanish Ship of the Line came too close to the northern British possessions. It is a pile of wood on the bottom of the ocean now. The sailors on HMS Belfast (Ship of the Line) celebrate. She was damaged, but only slightly.

Even more fun in the English Channel. The French put out some targets for practise. The HMS Victory (Man-O-War) was dispatched to deal with that "threat", and came back with a fine new addition to the Royal Navy. We call her HMS In Your Face (enslaved Man-O-War).

We also sent HMS Beagle (Privateer) to investigate farther south-west of York. However, she did not return, so we must assume the crew is either dead or prisoners to the French.

When will the British tire of this *** for tat ?

HMS Belfast sunk by Spanish SOL, 1 HP lost to my ship.
HMS Hastings sunk by Spanish SOL, 1 HP lost to my ship I think.
HMS unnamed SOL sunk Spanish SOL down to 2 HP
HMS unnamed SOL sunk by Spanish SOL no injury.
Hms Newcastle sinks 3 spanish SOL but left a 1 HP
HMS newcastle sunk by Spanish SOL lost 1 HP I think.

Total of 4 vessels each sunk ! should have quit while the RNG was on my side should have left HMS Newcastle alone

War is a costly exercise !

Lord Modo perhaps we should consider a cease fire ?

A splendid idea. Remove your forces from northern Prussia, and Britain will consider its seriousness.

Spains lone cavalry scout has already removed his pesence from Northern Prussia, though what this has to do with the British is beyond us !

Thank you. Britain will officially accept peace, and we hope so will Spain. Please expect our envoys shortly.

Beta did you receive this save ?

[Paddy]

Beta is away, and will hopefully return in the coming week

[Modo44]

*BUMP*

I hope Beta is back for good this time. Maybe we can manage another two turns, that would be awesome.

[ChrisiusMaximus]

Is it time to ask Beta if he wants a replacement ?

I think it might be wise to do so. In addition to this thread, I e-mailed two "bumps" his way, but no reaction so far.

[ChrisiusMaximus]

Its understandable I think one or both of his parents are unwell at this time, but maybe it is time he ponders the question. Does he want a replacement ?

Alternatively we let this sleep and wait for civ 4 before we replace or start new games then.

[Paddy]

Yes Beta is away at the moment, up with his folks.

I am happy to wait his return.

Adding to this, Ljube is also working extraordinary hours at the moment.

[Paddy]

He should be around to post anytime soon.

[Beta]

Here.

Sorry gents - the last number of weeks with work, family, and demo games have been a tad busy. Getting on top of things, and this is my last 'catch-up' game. My apologies for the long delay. Playing now.
