I've just downloaded your 1655.scn and there are some non-working wavs.
The problem is that some of then are 11Mhz/8bits/Mono and they should be 22Mhz/8bit/Mono. I can easily fix them if you want.

This thread is getting confusing. Henrik, why don't you set up a seperate thread for your scenario? It would simplify my understanding of what is going on.

[Henrik]

I have done so now, I hope all confussion has been avioded
And Waku: I have sent you a mail.

[Henrik]

Am I the only one who thinks that a multiplayer playtest of the thirty years war scenario would be cool?

I don´t the reason but everybody break their alliance, some idea to solve it.
Where are the other playtesters??

quote: -No problem to control Northern Germany (by now)

I will made North German cities Danish, in fact in the Danish phase of the war they were Danish allies.

quote: -French did the same (they were never friendly to me)

I don´t know but French are very agressive, I think that changing hteir leader character.

quote: -I can't negotiate with the Imperials, I think this is historically unaccurate.

In Danish Phase, Imperials and Danish was in war and this is the reason of turn off the negotiation.

I haven't found any problems yet, that is why I haven't sent you anything since my early comments. I have played ten turns, and France is at peace. I feel kind of silly, because I couldn't understand why trying to take some independent cities would start a war with Spain, till I remembered that you put Spanish units in some cities! Right now, I'm building France's infrastructure, through trade routes and the building of workshops and other resource producing improvements. I have landed an army in Britain, and will annex it for France soon.

Now you can download a newest version for playtesting, I have removed the seasons, solved some bugs, and made some changes

Which cities do you want to conquer? I think that only in Italian cities there are Spanish cities, You want conquer Rome!!!!!!!

quote: I have landed an army in Britain, and will annex it for France soon.

Bad, bad... really English cities aren´t objectives, so you are wasting your units.

[Chris 62]

It is indeed Italy that I was after. But I did not provoke a war over those cities. Instead, I have taken the North Eastern Italian cities, while continuing to prepare France for major war. I think that taking Britain has advantages, the main being it can produce units without being harrased by the other powers. Against fortresses, only seige artillery seems to have any effect, so I will produce huge amounts of them, and they will be protected by Horseman and Pikeman. The updated version has been downloaded, and will be implemented when next I play.

Did you fix the merchantship attack value or it's just that I still have the old rules.txt (I didn't pay too much atention when I download and unzip the new version)

[Henrik]

It was fixed in the latest version I used, I havent checked whit this new one though.

[kIndal]

[quoteThe events for others seem to be working fine, but I have yet to see one for France (Game date is early 1622).
[/quote]

I know but really French didn´t take part in the war until the last phases, only there is 3 (I believe) and 2 are provoked if Spanish conquer a pair of cities.

[Henrik]

I just started playing the update and everything ran fine untill 1620 when I got the message:
Spain and France forms an alliance against the Protestants...
That is something we would like to avoid, right?
I propose making spain and France have Vendettas against eachother (this would be historical).
Oh and making the fortress a domain 3 unit would see to it that it cant be shiped around.

playings as the imperials, I´m in 1622 and I killed all the protestants conquered all germany and Danish cities in the continent, also a city in the Copenaghen island has been conquered, I´m planing an attack on France and the mainland of Denmark

I´m having a lot of fun

my only complain is that in the turn 43 i´ve conquered cities that I´m supose to conquer in other parts of the scenario

[Henrik]

That happens to me sometimes playing as the swede too.
I think( and hope ) that you will have more problems when the swedish player enters the war.
Oh and Jesús i discovered some more typos:
Västeras should be Västerås (Västeras would mean "The western corpse" in swedish, so that one you might want to change).
Köenisberg=Königsberg
Danzing=Danzig
