8-Player Napoleonic Empires Free-For-All


  • Lets pull the cat on the table.

    The game is over and France can pick the winner?


  • Nope, the game continues.


  • How? Do you think I would fight on two fronts? Lol.

    That is, do you think I would let you enjoy to play 2vs1 and then see which of you win? Lol.

    The France makes the decision of the winner here.

    I am just thinking on what grounds I should make the decision. RP France might be too scared of Russia, even though UK is kinda arch enemy. Russia is also the super power, so to balance the game I should fight against Russia.

    Hard to chose lol.

    To the extant that the evil French Republic may choose to interfere more in the efforts of Russia to reach seven victory cities before His Majesty’s forces capture the seventh yellow, yes you may pick the winner.

    Earlier in this thread there was griping about the invincible position of the Britain because of the naval disparity.  I can see your point about the disparity, this is my first game on this map but after a few turns to get the hang of it the British navy is very hard to stop.


  • By the way, thanks for Ottomans of the game.


  • Well, I wont play this map anymore (but of course will finish this game). Things are so broken in this.

    NE FFA8 is another story. It does not try to be balanced but more historical, and it can be more fun with more dynamics on alliances.


  • as it’s not very important, after Austria plays, I will move for him his last Ottomans troops toward the frontiers if he doesnt post himself


  • Objection! If he does not come personally to harass and slow me down on far east, then his troops should be changed to be neutral troops.


  • Remember I am not quitting.

    I play this untill France is no more. And even if I have my capital taken I will move my units, if I have any.


  • @moilami:

    Why is that that everyone seems to be blind to the threat the UK poses to the peace all over the world?

    UK have the biggest navy and production capabilities second to none. If UK is not stopped now, it will never be stopped. It will spread all over the world like a cancer, and destroy everything what is good and holy on this earth. And the worst thing about UK - I personally am not even sure are they humans or just some inferior barbaric life form.

    If you don’t want that your great culture and language is to be replaced with that black speech they call English, then take an action now. Stop the cancer before it is too late, and save the world.

    Hmm. Ominous? xD

    That was turn 1 politics.


  • I think you might get surprised with my turn. You’re all assuming I will attack Austria’s capitol.

    waiting on MIR…


  • The Republic is proud to announce that Ottoman Evil Empire is in ruins, and will soon be wiped completely away from the face of earth.


    “The Ottomans made a mistake to step on Europe”, commented Michel Ney, the Marshal of France.


    “Constantinople will be renamed as Steinopolis, to honour the original European liberator of Constantinople, who bravely put an end to the threat Ottomans posed in Europe. However, the current whereabouts of Stein are unknown. It is likely he has disappeared in the storm of war”,  wrote Le Figaro in Editorial.

  • So, I had a great plan to bring back into play process and leave Austria alone instead of attacking it. I just needed 1 single move from Austria, if he did it, as my move would have forced me to move things out of reach of his capitol, he would have survived the game. I even offered him alliance (meaning I would have given back all his original territories) but still, he didn’t do it.

    Now I’m puzzled, I don’t understand how this can be happening.

    In normal circumstances, when you are in trouble and another power wants to help you, the helping power reinforces you, so that the attacking power doens’t have enough to crush him.

    In this game, France “helped” Austria by using them, pillaging them and moved through their territories to gain a very easy Ottoman capitol city, after the all-sacrifices of Austria.

    Now if this is not kingmaking, I don’t know what it is.

    /end of rant


  • I can still win this game, and even if I put lots of effort into trying to make this a long game, by doing questionable choiches (like stopping attacking Austria when I had the chance to get him and instead I retreated), and I wanted really bad to liberate (and by liberate I mean LIBERATE for real, not just getting it myself) constantinople in 2 rounds with overwhelming forces, this would have made the game a very interesting twist.

    The thing is in those games, when there are not kingmakers players, you can’t rush VC wins, or the other players will ALL ally with you. That’s also why I wanted to stop my advance, why I gave Berling back to Austria, to keep a slow and steady balanced play and to not make myself a target.

    But instead what happened? France gets 3 VCs in Austrian/Turkey territory, and Austria is “ok” with it. Forces me to go south again to try stopping this nonsense.

    Then I also get namecalled when I show what’s happening to everyone. Dunno really, I’d really love to know why MIB didn’t made that single move I asked him to do.

  • I don’t think anyone can stop me winning next round. Still, I’m upset because I didn’t want to attack Austria and wished for a longer game.

    As for next politics from Russia:

    nothing.


  • Austria requests alliances with everyone.  :-D


  • If you were upset and wished for a longer game, then you would had not attacked.


  • The Republic mourns the fall of Austria.

    “People of Austria and especially Baron Stein in charge of military operations by Austria will be remembered forever in The Republic. Baron Stein will be posthumously promoted to First Marshal of the Republic and awarded a new medallion of the highest order, The Defender of the Republic. Especially good care shall be taken of Baron Stein’s family, so that his sons can follow his footsteps in the future if they so desire. German language will be the official language in The Republic from this day on with French language. Refugee for people of Austria will be offered in Western Europe in the lands of the Republic or preferably in Steinopolis, the city Baron Stein bravely conquered, and they shall be part of The Republic with exactly the same rights as native French have. Today France ceased to exist, and The New Republic was born.”

    –Napoleon
