08 Mar 12 UTC	Spring, 1065: Okay, so just let me get a handle on everything going on here.....I can't see the whole map. Am I not supposed to see the whole map? Where are the Norwegian and Norman home centers Also, Harold Godwinson died....I don't want the same fate to befall me
08 Mar 12 UTC	Spring, 1065: well basically its fog of war so you only see around your units and territories, also each neutral has a standing army so you must support yourself in
08 Mar 12 UTC	Spring, 1065: lol, its one of the reasons why I like the map. Each of your scs and units can see the territories bordering it but the rest of the map draws a blank. Given that this is your first game here is some advice: 1. Armed neutrals, you need to support yourself into a neutral supply center to take it. 2. HW has a norwegian army in it (but isn't a sc, unless norway gets a build he will have to disband a unit). On top of that HW is considered an inland, not coastal territory. Fleets can't move in. 3. England is the hardest of the 3 countries to play as: http://vdiplomacy.net/stats.php?variantID=55
08 Mar 12 UTC	Spring, 1065: Alright, well that info about the neutrals is good to know, thank you very much.
08 Mar 12 UTC	Spring, 1065: this should be interesting for me as well, I usually play gunboat on this map
08 Mar 12 UTC	Spring, 1065: I do to, but I thought no talking would give goldfinger a huge disadvantage in the probably chance that he was unaware of the special rules (such as armed neutrals)
08 Mar 12 UTC	Spring, 1065: Yeah, thank you for not doing gunboat. In general, my skills are much....weaker...in gunboat situations haha
08 Mar 12 UTC	Spring, 1065: its weird, on webdip I suck at full press and have won 40% of my gunboats while here I seem to be better at full press... I guess what helps me here is the small community, so I generally have better understanding of my allies and enemies cause I have played with them more frequently.
08 Mar 12 UTC	Spring, 1065: finalize soon? (sorry if I sound impatient, lol, don't want to rush you, but you'd be surprised how quickly a 3 player game can go)
08 Mar 12 UTC	Spring, 1065: Oh I'm sorry! I can't see whether you all have finalized or not!
08 Mar 12 UTC	Spring, 1065: right above the player names it says what each country has done.
08 Mar 12 UTC	Spring, 1065: So at the moment 2 people have finalized one has saved
13 Mar 12 UTC	Autumn, 1070: were all online, anyone want some temporary semi-live action?
13 Mar 12 UTC	Autumn, 1070: might as well :D
13 Mar 12 UTC	Autumn, 1070: you here goldfinger?
14 Mar 12 UTC	Autumn, 1070: ack, yep I'm here now, if you all are.
14 Mar 12 UTC	Autumn, 1070: Well now that was not very nice of you there, my good Norman friend.
14 Mar 12 UTC	Autumn, 1070: Can I claim a misorder? (even though it required 4 units to do what I did?
14 Mar 12 UTC	Spring, 1071: Oh really? Well in that case my apologies for the accusation. Please, just convoy them all out and we'll be fine! /end sarcasm
14 Mar 12 UTC	Spring, 1071: How about I move to GLD and London instead, would that be more appealing to your tastes :P
