On a different note, I only HAVE the german version of call to power. is it still possible for me to play? I have looked for the original version for some time, but was unable to find it in our area, so I bought the german one...

[Solver]

Rubbduck,
I also have the German CtP, and it's nice. You'll just see wierd messages. When you get proposal, buttons will be "Angebot stornieren" and "Jamaika". Jamaika stands for yes. Some wierdnesses will be, but it'll be nice. Plus, messages will, be in English - language of starter.

Yes, you may play but it would be better for the rest if you could find the english version either original or... .
That is because messages that might come from you, e.g. starting wonders, etc. may cause the other players to receive these messages in German too.


As for the civilization choice I was wondering if it is a good idea to choose between to historically ally Europian nations.
Difficult to find one but maybe German (Holy Roman Empire) and Spain at the period of Charles V and WW2 or Irish and Engish, though not exactly allies but for a long period under the British crown or Scottish & English. What do you think? German-Spain? Or Ireland-England? Or just our true nationality, German-Greece?

Maybe you should take the Indonesians and let Fuzzball to take the Aussies. I wish they had included New Zeland... Maybe I could include a modified civ.txt to incude them... I'll what I can do about it.

Yeah I don't mind Indonesians would be fine, but would be great if you could modify a civ.txt with the New Zealand name.

Well, it will take a few days more .

Fuzz, to be in the ANZAC team you will need an ANZAC nation don't you think?
Maybe the Australians could be a good choice .

As we base the selection of players on the places where they live, I think using the true nationality of the player for the nation he plays. Which side was Greece on during WWI?
