    Where can I find the doc? I've just checked the SLeage and Civ Fanatics reference sections and failed to find it. Likewise, the Apolyton search function failed to come up with anything

        With only 7 civs and (seemingly) more players, is it possible to use that utility thing (I've forgotten what its called ) that makes the barbarians a playable civ? I don't know if it works with MGE let alone multiple players in a PBEM but it might be worth a shot.
        Even if the barbs were still basically unplayable you could still find somebody (whose name may or may not be Xin) to dump them on.

          Another progress report

          I've finished off the city placements and improvements, and I'm getting started on the events.

          Here's another teaser, this time showing a British amphibious fleet being confronted by a powerful French fleet

            Isnt that brittish ship in the middle a little out of its era?
            It looks like it bellongs in the 30 years war to me (200 years earlier)...
            I am refering to the one called "Schwedisches Liniensciff ca. 1630" (swedish ship of the line) in Bernds naval collection collection

            There might be some interesting 19th century ships in this one as well (this is one of Arne Schmieds collections)...:

              Yep - that's what I'm using to represent a four decker. It dosn't look too bad IMO - four deckers were a bit old fashioned in appearance.

              I've also been using Arne's fantastic graphics. I think that the transport and bomb ketch in the shot are by him, as is the proa in the following shot. I'm also using Arnes brilliant city graphics.

                      As Henrik clarified in a civfanatics thread, barb ships DO attack, and quite savagely at that, provided you use the naval slots of the units.gif, which they normally use (i.e. likely the frigate slot). And I can bear testify to that, as I've tested it.

                      I don't know if John used them, however, they look suspiciously like my reworkings of the coastal/ocean tiles from the HiRes modpack, for "Hammer of the North"... Anyway, nice graphics!

                        Using the naval slot does cut out the ability to transport ground forces though doesn't it?

                          Nope. It doesn't. I know in "Hammer" I had barbs attack both at sea and landing forces with no problems. And I used the trireme and frigate slots for the longships they used. Both worked. Strange I couldn't remember before I checked it recently.

                              No need for apologies. Glad to see them get used . Btw, John said there were some grapx he'd like to use from Hammer, so he might've used something for his scens. Anyway, nice to see the graphics wasn't done in vain.

                                Anybody?

                                How does the ANYBODY civ name work in events?
                                I've heard that there's a bug in it that means that the ANYBODY is the civ which first triggers the event, and this then remains fixed for the remander of the scenario

                                eg for the following event:

                                @IF
                                UNITKILLED
                                unit=Indiaman
                                attacker=ANYBODY
                                defender=English
                                @THEN
                                TEXT
                                A huge Indiaman is captured, and yields 150 gold worth of valuable goods.
                                ENDTEXT
                                CHANGEMONEY
                                receiver=TRIGGERATTACKER
                                amount=150
                                @ENDIF

                                then if the ANBODY in question was at first the French, nothing would happen when the Spanish attacked an Indiaman in the next turn.

                                Is this correct?
