EmpiresRising MA game for new players - started

[lebarjack]

Well, if you think it will be fun, I agree to continue the game.

But I don't find really fun awakening some morning and realizing your allies, with whom you had a 6 turn NAP, suddenly turn in a bloodthirsty AI who immediately starts to attack you.

Pangea's globals weren't a problem for me until he turned AI and began to attack me.

You can now roll back the game using a new admin option. So you want to do something like:

- Roll back one turn
- Change e-mail address of johnarryn's nation to the sub's address
- Get sub to send in a turn
- Force hosting

After rolling back, it will look like no-one has sent in a turn, but in fact all your 2h files from last turn will be there and will be used. This is actually handy - none of you should send in a new turn - having seen the future, it would be distinctly dodgy. So you will be able to see that no-one but the new sub sends a new turn in.

I hope that made some sense. It's hard to explain clearly! But anyway, the point is it can all be done.

Awesome thanks Llama. I will try roll back the turn.
Now all we need to do is find a sub.
Is everyone happy for this to happen or would people prefer leave Pan as AI?
I will continue to postpone hosting until everyone has had a chance to reply.

A thousand times yes! I have a hard time playing computer opponents, because I quickly fall into the "Durr...throw hordes of orderless dudes" mindset. I will happily wait untill a sub is found.

Vanheim has just lost and I guess Machaka will soon too
Maybe one of those two players want to play Pangea in this game?

In this case, though, I imagine lebar and I will want to re-do our turns. I don't know about him, but I would have done very different things if the Pans were not AI zombies.

Has someone tried PMing Ossa? He may want to take over. I will take over but only if no one else can be found. But I think it should be easy enough to find someone to sub in for the winning nation.
