If you are too busy you just need to get the iPad version so you can play on the go! ;)

You can continue PBEM games from PC to iOS with no problems!

Lepanto, Lepanto?
That was an Italian Naval victory mostly by Andrea Doria.
Do you mean I should play the role of Ali Pasha ?
This is supposed to be a land battle I thought.
Nevermind, just a password I guess. ;)
Escusame for my lame attempt at humour. Guess I am all wet.
Game on! Fuego!

Finding and posting chllenges

Post by ulysisgrunt »

I have just recovered from house guests and the flu which they brought...
This has increased my usual state of being "dazed and confused".

I am in Pod 3,
But can't seem to find the challenges that have been posted.....,
nor do the passwords seem to have been posted.

I have been assigned "30 Years war Danish 1625-1629 vs Spanish Imperial 1621-1631"
Do I post this pairing for everyone else in my pod?
Do we play both sides of the pair?

Many thanks
Ulysisgrunt

What? Over? Did you say "over"? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!

Danny, you need to re-read the instructions at the start of the thread.

Not everyone is issuing all their challenges at once. Some are pacing their games. I, for example, have not yet proposed a challenge for you. (Nor you me).

This is your challenge from Dortmund only. (In due course you will also have to issue him a challenge, which can be an entirely different pairing, or even a different era)

You pick which side you want to play from the pairing he has offered you and you set up the game (new challenge) as per the instructions at the start of this thread. (Open Battle, Very Wide Map, Force Selection Player). And you pick the password and post it here for Dortmund to see.

You also at some point need to propose a pairing to Dortmund, from which he will decide which side he wants to play and he will set up that game.

And the same to all the other players in the pod, though you don't have to start all the challenges at once.

Nothing happens shawkhan2, but for all is well known that the Admiral of the Cristian Armada (Santa Liga) was D. Juan de Austria, not Andrea Doria. And the weight of combats led the Spaniards. Also many of them were put on Venetians galleys (Italy doent yet exit). So I knew it was a joke :lol:
