Due to the war hunger of the brittish the French defence budget has been increased...

BTW if you guys ever need help finishing this one let me know. I love this scenario. Well I wouldn't mind helping as long as that warmonger John is nice to me.

Steve, thanks for the offer. Hope it won't come to that, as I can't promise to be nice...

...such a bad rep I have...
Steve, if you read the earlier thead (not sure if it was on CFC or here, this game has moved from home-to-home over the years!) you will see that I was arguing with Spain over the ownership of a few bananas, and got into a full scale war (which was cool) then got bounced by Henrik's French, who had a secret alliance with Spain. My ally Holland stood on the sidelines while I got my a*** royally kicked! (Although Chris was very helpful in the peace negotiations.)
Plymouth and Exeter fell in short order, and my Musketeers were routed all over the board. That was when I learnt (it was my first PBEM) that attack units are given extra bonuses (for some dumb and undocumented reason
) in MP Civ.
Hence Colonies 3.2, where the musketeers are more useful, and there are no Ambassadors.
That's typical me, btw. If I don't like a result - I change the rules!

Sorry for the delay
yup, after the bananas affair this game has been a bit tasteless (we need a croissant conflict, a pudding assault or a tomatoe revolution )

You see, we DO need a war! Trouble is, the scenario is a bit too balanced with 4 players. Colonies IV will address this too...yup, after the bananas affair this game has been a bit tasteless
Anyway, to break the deadlock, England declares war on France.
I only chose France because I am allied to the Dutch (and they won't be provoked!) and Spain is a bit far away right now, with my Caribbean possessions all lost in the last war. Nothing personal Henrik. France will be the toughest opponent anyway I should think.
I have made no (successful) diplomacy to prepare for this, and you may all want to declare war on me and wipe me out as a rogue state! Fair enough. However, I HOPE you will either sit it out or take sides equally, whichever way you think would be more fun.
I have taken no hostile action against France yet, except to build forts outside Quebec and Tinconderoga. The one outside Quebec will probably be plundered away anyway, as I find I don't have enough units in position to defend them both properly. (You see, I have hardly prepared in depth for this - it was Manolo's comment that set me off!)
Oh, and I've taken the native settlement of Montagnais, and renamed it New Brunswick.
Have fun, guys - and don't expect Plymouth and Exeter to fall so easily this time....
