[Haly]

Sweet.

I give it 100 years before all of the British Isles and most of France are pink .

 

[fanboi]

As per usual it is hard to notice KingSnake due to his size...

 

[fanboi]

Sweet.

I give it 100 years before all of the British Isles and most of France are pink .

100?

He will do it in 50 years.

 

[Fitz]

Looking good, reasonable amount of room between us all.

 

[CloudWolf]

So, am I Flanders or Tuscany? I'm guessing Tuscany. Otherwise I would be way too close to Saxony.

Will this work for the rest of you?

If someone can't we will proceed with 13th of may.

I'm completely free that week, so anything works for me.

 

[phoenixyz]

Sweet.

I give it 100 years before all of the British Isles and most of France are pink .

And then, when he has 5 sons and is forced to gavelkind, everything falls into civil war.

edit: I am also fine with either day.

I think Colkate is the early favorite to have the best game. Holmgardr is a very powerful start, with a free subjugation CB over all the weak and divided Russian tribes. By comparison, I have to compete with Ivar the Boneless for Britain, and I have no idea how that will go. Hopefully it will be a lot like this:

 

[KingSnake]

Looking good. So, 15th of May? If not, maybe we can do the initial setup (dinasty, prep) before 13th (15-20 min)

This just reminded me, if we don't change the dynasty, we are brothers.

EDIT: Would be nice with two more players, one Raja and one in Spain.

Not sure if it will work before since not all people can.

 

[Morfeo]

So any tips on playing a tengrist steppe horde? Or playing at all?

Chuck Norris them to subjugation

 

[fanboi]

Updated the map, KingSnake is now Duchy of Wallachia

 

[KingSnake]

Updated the map, KingSnake is now Duchy of Wallachia

Thanks, now I'm visible.

 

[Morfeo]

Chuck Norris them to subjugation

Lol, that was already my plan!

 

[fanboi]

Thanks, now I'm visible.

That's not what she said



...

 

[Valhelm]

Sign me up as Ivar the Boneless.

 

[fanboi]

Sign me up as Ivar the Boneless.

Hmm, you wouldn't want to go for a Spain character? Or a character in India?

Nevertheless, need to check with MGO if he is OK with your choice, but would rather see another character.

 

[fanboi]

Yeah, after discussion with MGO it wouldn't be fair since his preferred was Ivan actually.

Can you consider something else Val?

 

[Mgoblue201]

It's possible that we could both start in Britain, but there are a few problems with that scenario. Both Ivar and Halfdan start out in separate wars against the same target. However, Ivar has nearly twice the number of troops and could easily conquer Northumbria first if he wanted to, so we would have to arrive at some kind of complicated deal to make it work.

By the way, I got in touch with Crab about joining our game, and he said that he wanted to start in the Duchy of Murcia.

Did a double-take, initially read that as Merica, thought he was in it for the short term.

 

[fanboi]

Great! Invite, if you can, to the common group on steam, or I will do it, just send me your steam id so i can get a hold of you!

On another note, who was going to host?

 

[fanboi]

Question, Crabb can't make it until 22:00 CET on Tuesdays, would it be possible to change for everyone to start at 22:00 CET?

 

[phoenixyz]

Just to be sure: you mean CET and not CEST? If so, then it's starting to get a little bit late tbh.

 

[fanboi]

Just to be sure: you mean CET and not CEST? If so, then it's starting to get a little bit late tbh.

CET (central European time).

But if you can't we will go with original time.

EDIT: If we only do Tuesdays at 21:00 CET then?

 

[Kabouter]

CET (central European time).

But if you can't we will go with original time.

EDIT: If we only do Tuesdays at 21:00 CET then?

CEST (Central European Summer Time) is currently observed, just as a heads up.

Eeehhh yeah what he said.

 

[fanboi]

Regarding moving the playtime one hour forward, all is for beside phoinex who is hesitant and MGO I haven't got a hold of as of yet.

 

[Mgoblue201]

I would prefer a later start, assuming everyone else is okay with it.

 

[fanboi]

Great, so Phoenix what do you say?

 

[phoenixyz]

Firstly a suggestion: Let's just use UTC/GMT time

So Tuesday 21:00 UTC would be a little bit late. I could make it, but no overtime for me then. Thursday 21:00 UTC is fine though.

 

[fanboi]

Ok great! Everyone is for moving the time one hour forward! Great!

 

[Morfeo]

Moving one hour forward? UTC? What time is this for us Fanboi, was it changed or was it not?

 

[Morfeo]

Ok, 22.00 for us central europeans. Not one hour forward, but one hour later.

 

[fanboi]

Yes, just to clarify, we start one hour LATER then usual (22:00 CEST time).

 

[Valhelm]

Sign me up as Haraldr Fairhair.

 

[fanboi]

Sign me up as Haraldr Fairhair.

Done!

Map updated with Valhelm and Crabb, we might get one more player in this.

 

[fanboi]

Added one more player, MrKnives, as Duchy of Poitou.

 

[MrKnives]

Glad to be included in the game. I should have guessed fanboi chose sweden

Well, first I can conquer your country Finland, then I can take your country of origin, mother f Russia.

 

[MrKnives]

France is my new home. Try taking that

 

[Fitz]

That's the kind of peace-mongering I'd expect from Morfeo, especially with our starting alliance.

Hey dont drag me into this. We all know that all I want is eternal peace on the steppes!

 

[Fitz]

Haha Just kidding. If anything trips me up in this, it'll be my total lack of experience playing in that area, or as a Norse.

 

[fanboi]

Norse would suit Morfeo since he is Norwegian AND he likes to kill stuff.

Nice to know we are a few n00bs here

I might live in Norway, but as you should know, I consider myself a Bergenais and not a Norwegian!

 

[Haly]

Norse are OP. Just remember to remove Gavelkind as soon as possible.

True, but you like to kill stuff, which is the most important thing.

 

[CloudWolf]

Guys, I have some bad news. I just reviewed my schedule for the coming weeks turns out that I have quite a few obligations on tuesdays and thursdays. This means that I'm unfortunately unable to play with you guys regularly on those days and so in turn I'm afraid I have to withdraw.

That said: fanboi, if there's talk of a new game, don't hesitate to sent me a message about it on Steam. I still would like to play a multiplayer CK2 game, but for now I just don't see it working on a regular basis for me on the proposed days,
