Hmm. Think everyone will need the map file, attached to this post, since I gave it a new name so I wouldn't overwrite Sachka's original one.
It is not needed, no matter what you did to it. The .map file only creates the game, and sets the name of the .tga file... which incidentally allows the game creator to do some mischief with it. In KOTH, I used a theater6.map file, and everything worked fine without having it.
Ah, cool. I had thought that the .map file was at least required for the local client to know the neighboring province scheme.

The neighbouring provinces seem to be kept in the .trn file themselves (explaining why turn files for turn 1 are already 36 kb big). I guess that's a good thing too, as otherwise a player could alter neighbouring provinces on the local computer... though it could be avoided by using a check of some sorts.

Added server / port information, and nations / players to the first post in the thread for quick easy reference.

And, we're only waiting on some Mainiac to take his turn.

Weird, when I played turn 2 today it seems my orders did not go through from turn 1. I had no new commanders, research, or units. Just more gold. Its not a problem though.

You haven't been connecting from two separate machines, have you? I know that's bitten some other players in the past : connecting from a second machine, after already doing your orders, wipes out your orders if you then end your turn from the 2nd machine. ( I believe the reason is that the first machine has the orders in its .2h file, which is uploaded; the 2nd machine doesn't have turns entered, so uploads its own, empty, .2h file. )
