Might be room for more people, but we're waiting for Jun 28-July 1st, for Panther to get back.

And we need a host.

I would like to join, I have the possibility to setup a 24/7 host. But I have never hosted a game before, so I might need some help, specially on how to assign the players to the nations.

I will give some instructions on my Pretender to Panther, so he can create a Pretender for me and get the party started. Not sure *who* can play my first few turns though... but games are tough to start, so it shouldn't be too much of a problem.

Alneyan, I can sub you if you need - as long as it is for a couple weeks, and first turns aren't very long to play...

It is for one week or so (the game won't start before July 1 at the very earliest, and I am back on July 9), and probably less than that, depending on how quickly (slowly?) the game gets started. I will forward you some generic information on my preferred Pretender designs; of course, I will have some trouble covering all 17 nations, but...

Ideally the host won't participate, so as to ensure the anonymity. I guess technically it's enough if the dude randomizing the nations won't take part even if he's not the host, but I suspect there would be other advantages and convenience in combining the functions.
