Manolo seems to have vanished from Earth's surface. This is not the only pbem he's abandoned...

OK, thanks, Jay. Shame - we nearly got to the end! Two years is probably enough for any PBEM, though...

Are you organizing a Col IV PBEM game here at Poly? (hint, hint)

I have Manolo's password if someone wants to jump in here.
How about Darius or Yaroslav.?
Manolo talked to me right before I left for exile in London. (Thank god the Tower is a tourist site now!) He asked me to take over because he just didn't have time. I told him my problem about leaving for a month and suggested he talk to Yaro or Darius. Both might be likely to want to help out.
I would volunteer to help but Im still out of pocket more or less for another two weeks or so and Im not sure I really need to figure out another PBEM this developed when I first get back.
Plus there is the looming release of Colonies IV and a possible PBEM project being developed for that.
So thats that. Let me know if I should give the password to someone. Im sure Manolo would be happy if someone took over for him.

I think this game is done, as Chris says.
Colonies IV at Spanish 'Poly? Why not?
However, the game is still in beta (though nearly finished) and when it is released, it will be in SP mode. I want to make a MP version, that allows STACKABLE terrain and has more Beaver and Slave units to go around. It won't take long.
Also, any Colonies IV PMEM in which I am involved will have to move very quickly. I don't want to wait 2 years to finish (or just fail to finish) a game. To help that, Colonies IV MP will be in at least 2 chapters, probably 3. Eg Chapter I will cover 1630-1680, chapter II 1680-1730 and chapter III 1730-1780.
We can play through to the next chapter by mutual agreement if everything is going well, but 100-odd turns would usually be enough.Comment

Chris, have you been invited yet?
Seriously, you can play the English if you want this time in the 'Poly game, and Henrik can have the Catholics of course......or do I mean the Swedes?
The English are quite vulnerable early on to a human-run enemy, so be warned.
I guess I would prefer the French, but the Dutch or Spanish would be cool too. Anyway, this is all several weeks away. Colonies IV SP needs to be finally released, then I need to do the MP variant, then I need to do the "Chapters" I referred to above, then I need to find some time to play!
I intend to find time for two PBEM Colonies IV, and one online version, played on Sunday afternoons. ADSL will be required for that, I think!Comment

I'd be in for the online version as well if possible.No Fighting here, this is the war room!Comment
