Napolenic Empires. 8 players free for all game

[Stalingradski]

So for clarification, I hit on the 3rd round and took the territory. I adjusted the map, and my PUs (+2 for the territory; +4 for taking out the French unit) to 36.

Thanks all, and thanks Wittman for understanding -

Political round#2

France starts!

[Witt]

France offers Spain Open Borders.
France offers Prussia Open Borders.
France offers Sweden an Alliance.
Is good to be playing again.
Thanks everyone.

[Major Major]

I wait for people to respond to him right?

[Stalingradski]

Oui.

[Degrasse]

Spain accepts France’s offer of open borders.
Spain defers any offers from UK till next turn.
Spain has no useful offers for Prussia, Sweden, Austria, Ottomans, or Russia this turn.

Curious, any efforts as the smallest economy in the game to request bribes of production units would be handled by editing the game file?  For example, if France wanted to reward their loyal ally Spain with 20 PUs so that Spain could build a battleship, then the game file production values would just be edited during the political phase?

[Guest]

prussia ask sweden, austria and ottomans for a ceasefire
i accept open borders with france

[Stalingradski]

Degrasse - personally, I don’t see a problem with material as bribe - but it requires a very high level of trust from all eight of us, that two people don’t have an ‘out of game’ arrangement to divide the world and then settle the winner from there.

Obviously, ‘in game’ arrangements of that sort are part of the game, and acceptable - therefore the need for the high level of trust. It requires eight people to all be playing with the same spirit of the game - in game arrangements for in game motives, rather than out of game arrangements for out of game motives. If everyone is role playing their nation truthfully (rather than including their own ego in the mix) we’re good.

Does that make sense? In short, I vote yes to it, if we can all be responsible adults about it  :-D

[Major Major]

I don’t know…
There could be collusion with an ally that has a general near your border to build troops, essentially for you in a place where you could not get them.  Is that an issue?  Can cash donations take a game turn to get there?  Not saying no, just pointing out issues that popped into my mind.

[Major Major]

Is it supposed to be all france political and then the rest in order or is it a free for all diploamtics?

[Noll]

Let’s follow the game rules so no IPCs bribes.
The close thing you can do is de lare war eachother and let Spain take some France territories uncontested.

[Noll]

@Infrastructure:

Is it supposed to be all france political and then the rest in order or is it a free for all diploamtics?

Yes it is supposed to be played in order, but you can post your offers prior to your turn if you want to!

[Major Major]

UK offers open borders to prussia, russia, and ottomans(again)…
UK would have possibly offered Spain a cease fire, but it seems my envoy’s ship was turned away at port…

[Guest]

prussia declines uk’s open borders for now

[Degrasse]

Perhaps delayed at the port due to quarantine restrictions.  Vague, unspecified reports of plague requiring at least a one turn delay.  But perhaps your envoy will be happy to attend the Free Andalusia celebrations?  Spain would have a full plate after that with liberating additional territories in north Africa for next few turns.  Freeing territories, fighting pirates, etc.

[Gekkepop]

Russia accepts Open Borders from UK.

[Major Major]

I will offer a ceasfire to france as well, for what it is worth.  Although I fear for that envoy…

[Major Major]

My envoy once travelled thru time and heard a song by the Pixies called Andalusia and thought it was, “right good stuff.”  So he accepts the invite to the partay!
