[Waku]

In his piety, generosity, and good sense His Gracious Imperial Majesty has set free two communities of african slaves serving in New Spain

[Waku]

freedom!

[Chris 62]

Why haven't you been playing SP Manolo?

[Henrik]

Huh?

[Chris 62]

Waku has not been playing his turns in the game with Jay and I, yet still posting here, so I'm asking why not.

[Darius871]

Haven't had a map in a while...


______________________________

Darius, while it's perfectly fine for you to follow this interesting game and comment on it, please refrain from disclosing any kind of info that might alter the game balance. Next time ask ALL the players before posting a map.

Map removed accordingly. Have fun gentlemen and excuse the interruption.

[Chris 62]

You do realize that your posting sensitive knowledge about our game, while several powers are at war?

None of us knows the exact location of everybody's cities.

I understand your into our game, but please refrain from interfearing in it.

[Patient English]

As the defenders of Quebec refrained from overrunning our artilley positions, the big guns were able to be deployed this year: the French fortifications were destroyed (just!) and many defenders were destroyed with them as our engineers found the range.

Fresh troops moved in (mainly by sea) to protect the exhausted gunners....

Outside Fort George, a French Grenadier regiment routed.

Another French Mining village destroyed near le Mans...
British are now producing the greatest amount of Manufactures in the world. The French WILL be eventually beaten down....(and I've at last found a use for Musketeers!)

French Troops still occupy the land between Newhaven and Nieuw Amsterdam...Again, an appeal is made to our Dutch allies.

[Chris 62]

FOR THE LAST TIME, PLEASE VACATE THE AREA BETWEEN NEW AMSTERDAM AND FORT ORANGE, HENRIK!

Because of your forces, Ft Orange is now STARVING at the rate of -4 PER TURN.

I asked nicely, if they are still there next turn, I will destroy them, and I have the artillery there to do it.

I must act in the best interest of my colony, I have no desire for war, I ask for the last time that they leave.

[Henrik]

French troops between Niuew Amsterdam and Fort Orange has been withdrawn.
In the seige of Quebeck two regiments of Brittish soldiers one of musketeers the other of marines has been killed, the city is estimated to be safe from any Brittish attacks.
In europe more brittish renegade plunderers has been aprehended and executed, and a spanish infantry regiment trying to seige controll of silver mines in southern France has been repelled.
A small offensive against the Spanish has commenced north of St. Marc.

[Patient English]

We thank the Dutch for their determined stand on this.

The attack on Quebec is likely to be called off, it is true, as our Artillery is critically short on ammunition. However, once new supplies have been secured, they will return! The sacrifice of two battalions is considered justified to protect the exhausted, but now-veteran, gunners.

[Henrik]

We'll see what happens

I think the next few turns will be imparative in deciding the fate of north america...

Oh and how is Colonies 4 progressing?

[Patient English]

We will indeed, see.

The next few turns could be crucial in deciding the fate of France, too!

Colonies IV is coming along well - socials getting in the way of course, but I still hope to get Chapter I out to the playtesters by Christmas Eve.

[Henrik]

As I doubt anyone will play today or tomorow, I'm just bumping this so that it doesn't stay on page 2

[Waku]

dunno why but my civ2 runs desperately slowly with this game, does this happen at yours?

several french units destroyed north of San Marcos
