1799 - The war for Europe

[Paddy]

hmmm, and what does it mean in reference to the post you quoted?

could you elaborate

[Shogun Gunner]

Mickeyj was complaining about not getting battle reports, and yet he himself is too busy to post them

Really, it's the same point you made.

This is a real deficiency of Civ3 PBEM. I don't understand why the program couldn't record the battle scenes and give you a playback function when it's your turn. I gotta think that's easy enough to do. If cIV doesn't have this function then I will be very disappointed.

ahh thanks for that

the old brain a tad mushy at the moment, enjoyed the better part of a bottl of tequilla last night

paying a price at the moment

a battle report from the system would be so easy - they already have a database in their with all the unit data, and combat results etc etc etc

laziness

and now Micky needs me to do

more Tequilla

LLLLLLL how many L's in hangover

wheres the cricket???? covers are on and not even raining....

yeah the systems suck, but that happens when so many of the design team leave etc etc

all part of the reason I hate doing battle reports... they are such a simple database programming issue, and take up so little prgamming... they already have all the u

Turn Away,

No action taken against the english this turn.

I did sink a few of your boats last turn with a few of my ships of the line.

Several of Paddies troops mauled - 1 of his guard type troops redlining a perfectly healthy army

Battle reports are a real pain in the arde especially with the amount of troops in a game like this.

The Russian stack outside of Posen has been dismissed.

The Russian port town of Viblik has been dismissed.

Battle Report

Russian offer of peace has been dismissed out of hand, with prejudice.

An excerpt from an interview with King Gunner was printed in a London newspaper questioning the legitimacy of the Russian peace offer. The English King wryly notes the complete lack of an offer of compensation for British losses sustained by the unprovoked Russian attack.

Onto the reports...

The Sultan sneak attacks France!!

Upon seeing the army 'The Doctor' stationed in Bayonne, the Sultan immediately ordered a full scale assault. This army can only be there for one purpose only; a pre-emptive strike is sadly necessary.

'The Doctor' Army bombarded by some 30 Grand Battery
Ottoman Siphai Army dispatches a badly wounded Doctor for 2 loss.
3 Janissaries kill the remaining 3 defenders for 6hp loss in total.
Bayonne torched.
