Well, unless you have an extremely small hard drive, there is no harm doing it now.

done

Ta, I've got the file now, will play straight after work.

OK, I'm starting up now, just some questions:

1. Is there any reason I can't build settlers?? This seems important as America is underveloped, and will have a strange impact on the game if we start burning cities and can't rebuild.

2. Do the swedish need to be orange (like the English), or is ths just my computer?

EDIT : Will wait for MODO, to advise if the settlers thing is correct, or an error, makes a bit of a difference for initial building stratagy.

What exactly are you implying Modo?

I did not know that, I did not modify this. It seems only Germany and USSR can build them, probably to simulate forced labour used by those countries.

I broke that by accident when changing the turn order. But it is a different orange, right? If it bothers you, I can change it and restart the game.

It was just a lame attempt at a joke. Nothing to see here, move along.

So we let it run with no settlers? Do we need to revisit our city burning rule? It's just that it will make it a strange game if say Germany decides to burn cites, that the allies can't then re-occupy the land. - I would prefer to have them available (even if costly)

Only cities of size 4 or lower can be razed. So, I think this is not a problem, especially since it is Germany that should try to keep cities, being the attacker and all.

Ok, game on!
