  • Anyone up for some PBEM EU II?

    If we could get maybe 3-4 people to play we could get some PBEM EU II going. What could happen is one person plays for 10 years as one country and then e-mails the save file to the next person who then plays the save game with a different country for 10 years etc. etc.

    This of course means that you have to entrust your country to AI-management a good bit of your hand but that just leads to some fun uncertainties.

    I was thinking of playing medium to small-sized countries, since that's what I normally play. Maybe the Papacy, Savoy, Tuetonic Knights or ones around that size, but I'm flexible.

    I'd do it, but my copy of EUII is rather heavily modded.

      i'd be up for it, but like che my copy isn't standard (we both use EEP + beta right che?). also i'm going back to uni in a couple of days and may not have net access.

      so...err..put me down as a 'maybe'

          Well this is playing, not running
          I'm using the beta 1.07 myself.
          I'm sure we can find some mutually-acceptable way to mod our games...

            Sure, sounds fine. EEP or standard?

              If standard 1.0.7+no betas I'd be willing to try.

                  But does the presence of moddirs (ex: ../EEP, .../AON, etc.) by themselves, matter for PBEMs though (I've only tried to play a couple of times and without much luck in the process, but then I hadn't got some extra RAM then)?

                    See, here's the problem. I have no idea how I've modded my game. I know I don't have all the betas, nor the latest EEP. (My own mods I keep in a seperate copy of the game for testing). I suppose I could do a clean install and upgrade.

                      could reinstall myself
                      1.07 with no betas upgrades or mods would probably be best I think...

                          PBEM is to slow. Why don't we just play a regular MP game?
