Fritz it's your turn

JamesJKirk · April 23, 2002, 21:57

He probably didn't know because of the wackiness of the forums, I know at least I haven't been getting emails telling me when there're new posts

winterfritz · April 24, 2002, 07:40

... I got no email notification that anyone had posted here. I agree with Kirk, plainly the wacky forums

Although its very nice to be able to download my save without having to rename it.

Sorry for the delay

Cleanup Begins
The French government has begun the cleanup of the polluted Rhineland using civil engineers borrowed from the Italians. Spokespeople for the effort say that they are satisfied with progress, and optimistic that the pollution will be virtually eradicated within months. In order to aid this initiative, the Steel Works in Munich have been closed for the duration of the emergency.

Too late for comments, only the save...

JMarks · April 24, 2002, 18:48

Wow, I was reading some of these recent posts and found it odd that Russia had German cities, so I look back and see I missed the whole war on this thread. It kinda reminds me of the PBEM that I'm in... Only I didn't use such a stupid excuse as you guys did. lol No, I prefere spitwads than a demanding AI.

Still, you guys are going really fast, you're almost up to the first AoW PBEM.

Looks like we'll have to hurry things up.

Could you guys post another map? I love maps.

Parliament Forces Peace in Spain

Trade Shipments Land in Europe; Bound for Russia, France. More on the Way

OOC: The map looks good, EXCEPT that I captured La Coruna (the northwest most city in Spain) last turn

The ANZAC · April 28, 2002, 14:19

I'm going to play my turn once I have negotiations with Kirk.

JamesJKirk · May 1, 2002, 01:59

After problems in getting a successful session between ANZAC and me to occur, Case and I got together, did some business and through him completed half of the trade ANZAC and I meant to, here's the updated save

La Palma Secured

Following a bombardment by the French Fleet, Italian soldiers have secured the Spanish stronghold of La Palma. After accepting the surrender of the few surviving Spanish soldiers the Italian troops pulled out of the city to make way for the expected French garrison.

Rail Road By-Pass Project Continues

The Italian government has continued work on it's share of the international rail road by-pass project. Extra tracks have been built around Turin, Milan and Bologna. When offically opened next month these by-passes will enable foreign goods to travel between Paris and Rome in a matter of days!

Case, can you meet me online around 8pm tonight and we'll do the La Palma handover?

winterfritz · May 4, 2002, 06:47

La Palma handed over, France prospers, etc etc (no time for a long post right now

)

Cyrion · May 6, 2002, 04:47

Sorry guys, I (once again...) forgot Germany is out of the game and I am now to play after France!!! It will be done tonight...

Cyrion · May 6, 2002, 12:34

And that's all there is to say...

And the save:

JamesJKirk · May 6, 2002, 23:12

France and Russia, freights have already penetrated your puny nations' borders, and if you aren't careful, Italy and Turkey, you'll be next!

Cyrion · May 7, 2002, 13:04

Sorry guys, but from tomorrow evening I won't have access to a computer till Monday evening next week!!

So, if my turn comes before, IF you really can't wait until I come back, just let the AI play it...

But of course I would prefer to play it myself as soon as I come back!!!

So, if you have to wait because of it, sorry... (well, actually I'm not THAT sorry, because I'm off to Scotland to taste a few whiskies and pints of bitter...

Rail Road Construction Continues

Work on Italy's ambitious program of rail road construction has moved into it's next phase. The Italian government has anounced that by-passes of all major cities west of Venice are now complete and are open to international trade. Work has now moved onto improving the State of the railroads in Italy's Balkan provinces. It is beleived that a Trieste to Skopje railroad is a priority in this new stage of construction.

Britain Hands New Merchant Ship to Italy

In a gesture of good will, Britain has donated a Merchant ship, the SS Channel Trader to Italy. The Italian government plans to station the ship in the English channel so that it can carry Italian trade goods from the French coast to the British coast.
It is understood that Italian merchants have already begun to sockpile valuable goods in expectation of this lucrative opportunity.

Spanish Campaign nears conclusion
The long and arduous battle against General AI is nearing its end, as Second Army elements jumped off this week in what analysts believe will be the final great offensive of the campaign.

Troops under General Joyeuse have swept down into the Duero River basin, clearing the area of any fascist troops and capturing the city of Valladolid in a model attack with virtually no French casualties. These last defenders of General AI are obviously demoralised, as well as in need of supplies and rations, and are hardly a match for the well-organised and provisioned troops of the Second Army. Soon the General will have no more soldiers to hide behind.

Rhineland almost spotless
The cleanup of pollution in the Rhineland province is also nearly complete, with only some areas in the Alps requiring the attention of the civil engineers loaned by Italy. Scientists are currently hard at work devising solutions that will ensure that such pollution will never menace the environment again.

Cyrion · May 13, 2002, 17:24

I'm back!! I arrived 1 hour ago and just rushed to my computer not to hold you for too long!!

Thanks for waiting, guys, I really appreciate that!!

In short: railroad under construction, new freight and some judges ready to be appointed!!

And the save:

JamesJKirk · May 13, 2002, 22:26

Built some rails, and my first wave of freighters are nearing their destinations.

Fritz, that thing I emailed you about isn't urgent so you may as well play your turn (well the tech part of it is, but that can probably be done in a single player situation)

winterfritz · May 20, 2002, 02:47

Sorry guys, I was unexpectedly away all weekend. My turn is coming shortly.
