@Elrood apparently… I’m curious to see what it says when things don’t go so well lol

Here’s another potential bid proposal. G40 uses major and minor ICs. It seems unfair to charge the same for 2 and 3 point ICs as for bigger ones.
Cheaper minor ICs would benefit G building in Rhine, Alsace or E Prus. But also UK in England. Turkey has many 2-3 point territories that would benefit. Perhaps this would offset not starting with Industry tech anymore. Even Shanghai might spout ICs.
Some powers like France, already have ICs in most eligible territories. -
I think we should try some of the ideas. If they don’t work we just quit that game and go to the next. we could all agree on lets say 6 ideas. roll the 1d6 dice and go with that one.
like I say if we find out that the idea is unfair or we just don’t like it quit the game and go to the next one.
I think we should play accordingly. the best players get the better powers so we can get a good feel for that rule and say yes or no.
this is just a suggestion.
-
@captainwalker I think everyone has said they want to play again except waiting for captainwalker. Is this correct?
Now its a matter of the bid and other ideas.
Personally, I think creating a minor IC for 12 PUs for all players, somewhat compensates T for losing the industry tech; and reduces G’s dependence on luck in getting industry tech to offset its lack of and need for multiple ICs on the Paris front
Yet its not one-sided, as UK will likely build an IC in Eng sooner than otherwise, thus at least partially offsetting the benefit to G. -
I’ll vouch for captain. he’s in
-
Great that everyone is playing again.
Happy with whatever the majority want to do re nation selection. My own suggestion would be to carry on as we are with dice rolls because it’s simple.
Again, happy re any variation in the CP bid, particularly if it varies the standard pattern of play. A G factory in W Prussia is an interesting suggestion. But also leave T’s starting bid unchanged, as it is the sick man of the CPs.
-
yes, i’m good even if we keep it the same.
-
@dawgoneit fine with me as well. especially since I played against the buffed Turks twice and got them when they got nerfed again… cry
And I also get the fleeing that we try to fix an inherently flawed game for all the right reasons with the wrong methods. :-D
-
Any other comments before we start rolling dice for nations as usual?
-
Just so we are clear: same rules as previous game?
-
@colt45554 i vote for buffing Turks again
-
@elrood so do you want the 3 inf again and a return of the industry tech? Or something else in mind?

That!
-
Shall I assume there are no dissenting voices and roll the dice for everyone?
-
@private-panic since you all are so agreeable to my proposals I would add a plus 10 bonus to my roll since I am lately always pretty much last to pick 😅
-
Instead of industry tech to Turkey, I still think allowing every player the G40 style minor IC. It especially helps T, since he can build cheaper ICs in great locations like Meso and Armenia.
If you don’t like the minor IC for everyone and 3 inf for Turkey, then perhaps :
since 3 inf and a tech were too much and 3 inf without tech were not enough, how about just the tech? -
@fmerwinrommel how would you implement it. I like to stick tongue tools we have and not sth we need to edit all the time or need to remember
-
@elrood There would only need to be an adjustment to a player’s income for minor IC builds, which wouldn’t happen often and once they are built, no further adjustment required.
-
Allowing cheap IC for Turk in say Meso, would give him a jump on Arabs. Currently, only gas can reach in 1 turn from existing ICs, unless T got mobile cav. An IC in Meso would shorten march to Mecca for inf and art. Would that be too much advantage?
-
I think so . I want to see Mecca captured no earlier than it normally is .
-
@witt the advantage of industry would also be that Turks do not need to roll on that table and have less uncertainty.
