Allright.

Europa Universalis 2 is a strategy game where you control any country in the world between the period of 1419 and 1820, where you attempt to guide your nation to superpower status through a combination of exploration, technology, economics, diplomacy and warfare.

[image loading]


Hearts of Iron 2: Doomsday is similar, except it is a fairly accurate, and by far the best World War 2 sim. Again, you can take control of a single nation and attempt to guide your country through WW2 and the Cold War.

How long would it take for a multiplayer game to end, both games seem pretty long.

If you take a few hours per night to play a game might be finished in a couple of weeks.

Oh wait, you're quite serious?
Ever since I wasted a whole day playing Civ2 multiplayer I've avoided these kind of games.
Although amazingly fun, time is expensive and I can't afford spending so much on a single game.

I'm a big 21 today, although public opinion has it that I look 16.

Anyhow, the game is really no more time-consuming than BW, just take it a hour or two at a time, and don't expect to finish a game in one night. In EU2 on average I advance around 30 years per night of gaming, so taking 400 years to finish the game, about 13 nights of gaming ought to reach a conclusion, although it's fun even if you never finish

HoI2 probably takes a bit longer.

I am making a renewed offer for any members to join our present game featuring:

Me- USA
Warding- Soviet Union
Tuy- Britain

The present date is August 1940. The major powers which are still free are: France, Italy, Germany, and Japan. Other decent countries like Canada China and Brazil are still free as well.

Warding is talking nonsense. He's the global pariah and desperate for an ally. Be aware though, if you do choose Japan, the only help you can expect from warding is his mighty pacific fleet of 3 submarines.

Next game is on Wednesday. I suggest everyone who wants to participate be on in the afternoon (US) evening (Europe).

We need an expert to take Germany to prevent it being overrun by Warding. The greatest challenge isn't defeating the Axis but shaping the post-war world in terms favourable to freedom and democracy.

Anyway, I presume you already have the game, or if not, acquire it via www.gamersgate.com (I can provide you with my acct for a free download.)

moltke i'll play if you choose china.


I'm already the USA but worry not, my Chinese friends are doing their part resisting Japan in Asia.

I've met with some cowardly chracters in fiction, but as the adage goes truth is stranger than fiction, for I've never encountered anyone as cowardly as our friend warding.

On June 21, 1942, Secretary Warding of the Soviet Union has surrendered unconditionally to the supreme commander of the Allied forces, Field Marshal Moltke. At the time of his surrender, warding occupied the Soviet Union and nearly all of Europe. Abandoned to leaderlessness were 450 divisions of the bravest soldiers the world had ever known, come from as far as Vladivostok to fight for their beloved commander, Warding. The situation in Europe was in every way to warding's advantage: By 1942 warding had crushed Nazi Germany and pushed the allies off the continent. He invaded Italy and was only stopped at Sicily. He invaded Spain and conquered Gibraltar. He conquered Denmark, closing the Baltic sea to the allies. He conquered Norway, in his ruthless campaign against freedom and democracy everywhere. Installing puppet regimes in conquered nations, he had the entirety of Europe at his back to wage war against the champions of freedom.

In 1942, the allies, with their armies outnumbered 1 to 10, struck back. Warding had invaded Turkey, bringing that gallant nation into the allied fold. Despite the overwhelming number of Warding's troops, the US led by Moltke, and Britain led by tuy, were adamant in their resolve to repulse yet another example of naked aggression. Due to warding's incompetence, his numerically inferior opponents pushed him out of anatoyla and into the Balkans. Due to a lucky coup, the UK secret service brough the Japanese Empire into the war with warding. Warding went ballistic. He imposed Soviet control over all his allied armies. He declared war on and invaded Greece. Like a madman he sent nearly 200 divisions into the Balkans for blood, where they were resisted by no more than 40 US and a handful of Greeks. The US then decided, in recognition of the superior efficiency of Soviet supreme command over their allies, to take control of Canadian, Italian, Australian and New Zealand forces in the region. In coordination with their new Japanese allies, the British pushed the Soviets out of their pacific stronghold of Vladivostok. In coordination with their new Turkish allies, who warding so mercilessly attacked, the British captured the oil wells of Baku. In coordination with their new Greek allies, whose children were sacrificed to the fat commisars of the Kremlin, the small but brave US army repulsed the Soviet attack on Greece and began to push into thrace. Then, due to an extraordinary act of Soviet incompetence, warding ordered a push of 1.3 million Soviet and allied troops into Anatolya, across the sea of mamara, guarded by Canadians and other minor allies. Their attacks were repulsed, and American mechanized formations slipped behind their exposed flanks and encircled those troops in Constantinople. After a few days siege, they were compelled to surrender. However despite these setbacks, warding still had at his command 450 divisions: as many as the Americans, British and Japanese empire could field combined. He had working for him the entire economy of his European puppets. However, warding's spirit, so frail and weak, was easily broken. After the surrender at Constantinople, warding thrashed his way out of the Kremlin and went into seclusion in some secret dacha in the Ukraine. He refused to resume command of the armed forces of that great nation who he had so euphorically exercised when he sent them conquering small nations for blood. He deemed himself a great strategist, because under his leadership he was able, after a four month war, to defeat little Finland, but now he surrenders, in face of American troops 1/10 his number, and when British and allied troops have finally begun to offer real resistance. The measure of a man is taken by how he tackles adversity, how he recovers from defeat, how he accepts challenge. By any qualification, warding is clearly not a man, but a coward, who takes on great responsibilities when they are easy, and repudiates them when they become difficult.

The situation in Europe on June 21, 1942

[image loading]


Peter the Great recovered from Narva to win Poltava. Alexander I recovered from Borodino to destroy Napoleon on the Berezina. Stalin, with the rumble of German tanks miles from the Kremlin, gathered the nerve to pave his way to Berlin four years later. Secretary Warding does not belong to the annals of these men. In truth, he is a footnote in the annals of history, which shall now read- Secretary warding- traitor to the Soviet Union, his people, and the greatest war criminal of our time.
