SD.net Multiplayer EUII Game(1492?)
I was wondering if those of us who play EUII here would be interested in running a longterm multiplayer game, starting in 1492, when all of the major powers are firmly in place.
I was thinking of a weekly thing, where we play an hour or two, then save and leave off. A European-centered game would probably be best, because if one person played China and everyone else played Far Eastern minors the game would be...uneven.
Any thoughts? Also, I would prefer to play under the vanilla 1.07 patch, without any of the beta patches.

I would be interested but what is EUII? Unfortunately I am lost.

YES! I call dibs on Genoa! You should keep a chart of who's playing, their prefered country, and their timezone.HemlockGrey wrote:I was wondering if those of us who play EUII here would be interested in running a longterm multiplayer game, starting in 1492, when all of the major powers are firmly in place.

The game is Europa Universalis II, Crown. Look it up, it's cool.
EDIT: I change my dib to Genoa.

Sure. If we were playing GC, I'd pick England, as I never get tired of conquering France. I'd like Brandenburg for 1492.

I have a problem with Paradox's patch page, it won't load. I'd only be able to download a beta...

I'd be interested. I got the game on sale for like $10 and then never got around to playing it, so I'll be a n00b.
EDIT: Wait, what the hell am I saying? I'm going to Chile on Tuesday and not taking my computer. The game won't be done before next Tuesday, will it?

Well I think we'd play every Saturday for around 2-3 hours and you can always pick up a nation (I think). Of course, I'm sure no one minds waiting a week...right?
I suggest you play Spain or France.

No, I mean that I'm leaving and not coming back. I'm doing a semester abroad. Oh well, if you guys do it again after I come back (Christmas) I'll be up for it.

I might be willing to jump in, perhaps as france.
Devolution is quite as natural as evolution, and may be just as pleasing, or even a good deal more pleasing, to God. If the average man is made in God's image, then a man such as Beethoven or Aristotle is plainly superior to God, and so God may be jealous of him, and eager to see his superiority perish with his bodily frame.

I've changed my mind yet again...I can't settle on anything as of yet, but I'm working on it.

Hmmm...I hope so. It probably depends more on how much RAM you have and the host's internet connection. Do you have cable, Hemlock?Captain Lennox wrote:I can play but I have Dial up is that acceptable?
If it's really bad, you can play the Golden Horde.
