Poly Multiplayer Game
How 'bout one?
PBEM or simultaneously, it doesn't matter to me.
Maybe we could even do an AAR?

By PBEM, I mean, for example, I play the first n years as my country, then SD plays the next n years, then VG plays the next n years, etc.
It's pretty fun seeing how well the AI is able to keep your lands together while your not playing.

Yah, those games are fun, even single player. I remember in the GC going on a massive conquest spree as the Ottomans uniting a lot of the lands that would be standard Ottoman property later, but because I did it in-game, there was some pretty nasty bad-boy, plus all non-Muslim nations hated them. So when I left the wheel, the Ottoman holdings in the Balkans took some beatings whenever the European Catholics decided that the hated Turks needed to be taught a lesson. I then popped on over to Russia, whom I was really too nice too, as they conquered South and, more importantly, went on a massive colonization spree toward Vladivostok, stopping to establish cities on all the gold mines- giving Russia some very nice cash-flow, as well as making some pretty strong inroads against the Polish.
I forgot who I took on after that. I just remember that was the same game where the British got ruthlessly beaten on, with France and Scotland conquering all the way down until "England" was nothing more than the southern-coast provinces, and an Irish province or two (with the Spanish and Portuguese with interests up there). And some colonies. Then the fun thing is that Franc diplo-annexed the Scots, so all central and northern England were controlled by the Frogs. Talk about a Briton's worst nightmare.
Anyway, I only have EUI, so probably can't play with y'all anyway.
